That’s a great comparison. I think the 1995 film took the absolute best from the manga. There’s something special about it that has not been recreated.
What’s fun about the radio shows is apparently a lot of that performance inspired the characters’ portrayals in the book. I think the first couple of books are probably better for that collaborative artistry, and I think the same applies here.
Every GiTS movie/show is a collab, and some are peak, some are absolute trash. Canonicity, authorial intent, sometimes that’s a pedestal.
…the manga was first…
Although I can’t say anything. The true Canon for Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy is the novels in my heart, even if the radio show came first.
