I think this is also the case with manga and anime. I often see people complain that a manga did a certain scene better than its anime. Many times when I check them side by side, the anime scene looks exactly the same, except with extra movement.

I figure that the issue is that they imagined a certain tone of voice and movement in the manga and are disappointed when it doesn't happen like that in the anime.

Animation absolutely screws with frame details, especially when movement is involved. Add the effect of coloring and you can easily have a bunch of scenes that look better in manga form.

Depends quite heavily on the specific case. With a sufficient budget and good direction, an anime adaptation will usually be just as good as a manga, like when you look at current popular ones like Kaguya Sama and Chainsaw Man.
