The anime and manga also seem to be different from one another, with MadHouse giving more of a badass feel to the story with some very stylistic animation where-as the manga seems to focus on more of a crazy humourous style. In addition, FUNimation did an amazing job with the dub such that it's hard to watch the original version anymore, especially when lyrics and singing are concerned. I would actually recommend the dub over the subtitled version, though I'm sure some people would like the "original" feel more, since it deals with music.

But that wasn't the worst thing that happened without notice to the band when that CD was released....

Be warned though, the Engrish Ryusuke, and other characters speak is teeerrrrrible. I really recommend the anime–although I haven’t read the manga–it was fantastic.
