Gelatin is a plain thickener, agar agar is a thickener that is very high in fiber. Also, gelatin thickens slowly (think of how long Jello takes to thicken) whereas agar agar thickens quickly, usually in less than a minute.

gelatin is made from the bones of cows, and ager-ager is made from seaweed. i think ager-ager is better because its more simple ;p
