character vs plot, which is better?

The one with the better art style   reply

Characters no questions. One big example of this is are the slice of life anime(s) like asobi asobase. A plot can be filled with nothing but mundane shit but as long as the characters are interesting and entertaining af, it will roll.   1 reply

If characters are poorly written, a great plot can feel soooo hollow, but if the plot is bad, even amazing characters can't save the story so id rather pick well written characters even tho i do think they go hand in hand.   reply

I think plot is better honestly, when most people watch things, they don't usually look at the characters first but instead read the description and become interested in it. Having well written characters are good but in the end, youre mostly watching/reading something for the plot   reply
