i usualy do both since the manga is more expansive than the anime and fills in details that the anime usualy omits. i'm reading the hellsing manga and i'm finding out more about the characters and plot than the anime shows, it has been the case with all the manga i have read. for example, blood: the last vampire anime is short, under developed, and doesn't explain much, but if you read the manga it fills in most of the blanks.
