The consistency depends. In some cases, the anime sticks closely to the manga, but in others, there might be changes in plot or character development for various reasons like animation style or time constraints.

It depends. Sometimes the movie adaptation is very faithful, but other times it can take significant liberties and deviate quite a bit from the source material.
