The first two storyarcs in both the anime and the manga are fairly simple and straightforward. Both the artist and writer were kind of new to the genre. The manga did come out almost ten years ago. Once you get into the last few storyarcs (especially the final two in the anime which are totally new from the manga) they are much stronger in art style and story. The sad thing is alot of people don't bother to get that far into either of them... they are worth it though. And if you have an interest in the puppetry arts of Japan, they are a must see.
