It's common practice to make manga adaptations of many popular anime, there's a manga based on {{a|22|Evangelion}}, and ''two'' (one shounen and one shoujo) based on each of {{a|184|Escaflowne}} and {{a|141|Mahou Tsukai Tai}}. Also it's quite common to release manga and anime versions of a story ''in parallel'', for instance {{a|180|Nadesico}} and {{a|287|Shoujo Kakumei Utena}}. | |||
== Movie == | |||
Based on a live action film, Japanese or otherwise. For instance, {{a|197|Iria: Zeiram the Animation}} which is based, unsurprisingly, on the sf action film ''Zeiram''. | Based on a live action film, Japanese or otherwise.

== New == | |||
Not based on anything, the story is a new work, usually made up by the people involved in creating the anime. Generally if an original work (原作) credit is given, it will be to the studio, or director, or other members of the production team. | Not based on anything, the story is a new work, usually made up by the people involved in creating the anime.

== Novel == | |||
Note that novel means book with words in paper, so no comics and no 'visual novels', which should go under manga and (probably h) game respectively. Examples include the many ''World Masterpiece Theatre'' series animated by {{Producer2l|276|Nippon Animation|日本アニメーション}}, the various anime based on the novels of {{Producer2l|276|Tanaka Yoshiki|田中芳樹}} and lots of others. | Note that novel means book with words in paper, so no comics and no 'visual novels', which should go under manga and (probably h) game respectively.
