Face it. You always hear that the book is better than the movie or the manga is better than the anime, but which anime do you think is better than the manga?
My #1 without a doubt is Excel Saga. Although I do love the manga and it was what got me into the series, I liked the anime more because due to the fact it was more fast-paced, I got a better idea of how much of a hyperactive lunatic Excel was. Also, any mecha series besides Gundam Wing. I like moving mecha action.

Any Gundam series is better than the manga.

I second Excel Saga, and I add in Fooly Cooly (no comment), Evangelion (both versions are good, but I prefer the anime, more understandable), and Real Bout Highschool (way different than the manga actually... better I think).
And if you count live action anime, I'd nominate Battle Royal (it's so different... but so, so much better).

Oooh I second FLCL, forgot about that. I really didn't like the manga, but looooooooooved the anime. Personally, I like the Battle Royal manga more than the movie (although it was awesome), more character development and insight although that's to be expected.

I definitley third the Fooly Cooly...the manga, no matter how many times I read it's two volumes, never fails to confuse the crap out of me. I also like the Trigun show better than the manga, even though the manga was good as well. Same thing with RahXephon and the Please! series, too.

I also agree to Excel Saga and FLCL being better.
