| Even if you have the greatest story of all time, if animation is not up to par then your anime sucks. |

| @tchitchouan I'm okay with an anime that has good story + pacing but has mediocre animation. |

| @LenRea but are you okay with an anime that has a top tier story but god awful slideshow animation ? |
| If anyone is awful then it won't be good anyway. But better story + worse animation>> worse story + better animation |

| @tchitchouan if it really is a top-tier story it doesn't even need much animation (for example LotGH has great story and never needed good animation because it was a grounded tale of space politics) |

| @LenRea what about berserk 2016 ??? |
| okay story with good animation would still be something I would rate 7/10, but a good story with stiff animation can be anything from 9 to 10. Of course animation or at least good art certaintly enchance a story and I prefer too look at something, that's at least moving - still I like a lot of shows that aren't that well animated + there were anime that could have been at least a 7, but weren't thanks to the art [even with the meh story, if the animation or art was at least something more engaging to look at I would rate it higher] |

| Both need to be balanced. Otherwise the anime will suffer quite a bit or a lot. Unless it's an artistic choice, where you may get away with inferior animation but great story. |
 |
| Story is more powerful, but neither one of those is potuzhno enough for me. |

| I don't know who quotes me and then deletes the comment, but know that you make my day. STEAM's GOTY 2024 the Ghost of Tsushima If digital buying isn't owning, then piracy isn't stealing - usar el botón de ignorar te hace estupido, no seas tonto y agarra tus cojones que ya eres mayorcito - |
| Story will always be better than animation |
 |
| Not sure about "powerful", but I tried 2 anime (I'll avoid mentioning titles so not to upset anyone). 1st work had bad animation, but interesting story. I finished it, it was interesting. 2nd work had good animation, but bad story. I couldn't bear watching it 15 minutes. So for me story is more "powerful", because this way it's like at least you read/watch interesting book with bad pictures. |
| I apologize for my mistakes, because it's not my native language. |
| "What do you think is more powerful?" Story. |
 |
| A good story will always be good story regardless the animation and human feces will always be disgusting no matter how many pixels it has. |
| Depends,normally i'd say both but if I had to choose For action:Art & Animation For the rest:Story |

| story, animation and character all are powerful. but if story and animation are good that means it's powerful. if I'm wrong to understand the "powerful" then Saitama and Goku conflict arises. but i consider them individuals i don't compare them. arigato gozaimasu!!!! |

| Anime is a visual medium, so animation is the better stat to invest in. But there needs to be a balance, you don’t want to be a tryhard dex katana user only to get destroyed. Be a strength main with enough int and faith to cast your buffing spells. |
| You can have a great story with shitty animation but you can't have a shitty story with great animation. |

| @tchitchouan Sounds like a step up from visual novels which are literally like watching a slideshow. Doesn't prevent the stories from being engaging. But I wouldnt expect a bikiki armor obsessed degenerate to understand that. |

| @epidemia78 anime shouldn't be held to the same standards of a visual novel, they're totally different mediums. |

| Proof you've never watched Kino no Tabi: The Beautiful World. |
 |
| Whatever. If one doesn't have imagination, story and animation are irrelevant. |
Help! I need somebody. Help! Not just anybody. Help! You know I need someone. Helpppppp!  |
| For the most part, story. It is rare that an anime has a good one with also being plain unwatchable, I don't think I ever found a case of the sorts actually. |
| Well, I mostly watch anime for the animation, although I sometimes enjoy the plots of anime, too. |
