Yes, as one would expect the manga is a lot more nuanced and fleshed out, it's also truly a feast for the eyes! The movie began production before the story was finished, so in a way it also influenced it. Both are some of my favorite pieces of media ever created, but even if the animation work in the movie is astounding , I think the better way to consume the story is by reading it.
Ah, I see you're a person of culture as well!
