The anime explained so little of the plot or any background I didn't understand a damned thing. Kinda like Darth Maul in SWI.

I'm glad that they are making it easier for people to test drive manga but nothing beats having the book in your hand or looking at the shelf and seeing all of the manga you've collected.
