| "do you want more emotional or more intelligent anime?" Definitely emotional. |
 |
| I would like to see more anime that is a mixture of both of them. |
 |
| I'd say all my top favorites are a mixture of both - some almost exclusively on the more thought-provoking side, some almost exclusively on the more emotional side, some more mixed 50-50 down the middle. But I don't think I'd appreciate anime as a medium as a whole as much if it were just exclusively limited to one or the other. Giving me new and interesting things to think about, as well as new and interesting ways to look at and examine things I already know about and am aware of, or, alternatively, getting me to feel deeply - these sum up the reasons I watch. Also, depending on your interests and personality, thought-provoking concepts actualized and explored can make a person very emotional and moved. I know this to be true. |

| 70/30 for me, and emotional part must include decent art style and music, otherwise books simply win by far. |
| Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. |
| Emotions don't make sense and aren't effective without intellegence so yeah, intellegence. |

@meyve well think of it as a spectrum like @LoveYourEyes did when he said 70/30 splits
| @deg then intelligence should be at least between %55-75 of it. To be invested in a fiction there has to be good story, characters and those definitely requires intellegence. The emotional aspect comes after and with that imo. |

| There are plenty of emotional Anime already, but I rarely get to see intelligent Anime (whatever that actually means), so I want more intelligent ones. |
| Emotion without intelligence is kitsch. Intelligence without emotion is artsy fartsy. If I had to choose at the barrel of a gun, I'd probably prefer kitsch. I wouldn't enjoy it, though. |
 |
| Def intelligent for me, going off on monologues about literally anything in philosophical ways |
| I wouldn't mind having both mixed. Although, there's quite alot of emotional animes and it isn't hard to find them, while for anything related to education it isn't that common or at least it is hard for me to think of more than one-few titles. So in the end I guess more intelligent/educational anime would be a better option. |
| Both. Those two things do not contradict one another in any way. |
| I prefer more emotional anime. If it includes drama, at least make it sensible. |
| I'm not sure what standard is being used here, what is an emotional anime and what is an intelligent anime exactly? You mean an anime that values emotions over making logical sense versus an anime that's more worried about being grounded and realistic over being too dramatic? |
| Who are you and why do you show your hostility towards a complete stranger whom you've not once spoken with before. Are you seriously asking to get blocked? Well, if that's what your intent is; to tempt me into throwing hands with someone as lowly and insignificant as you, then i may grant your wish provided you articulate yourself a bit better when trying to spite a person of my wavelength. |

-Ryu said: I'm not sure what standard is being used here, what is an emotional anime and what is an intelligent anime exactly? I second this. I'm interested in what people mean by this. Can someone explain this to me? With examples, hopefully? I don't think I've ever pointed at an anime and thought, "that is an intelligent anime, not very emotional." And to me, the opposite of "intelligent" is not "emotional," it's "dumb." Are some people really saying "emotional" equals "dumb?" |
| I think both are important and can lead to greatness. But ultimately, I think the emotion is a little more important to me. That said, i think more often not these two go hand in hand. |

| intelligent~ well-written stories that don't rely purely on emotions are just more fun to watch imo |
 |
| I just want shows to properly explain why mc has infinite mana |
    |
| sometimes, i like feeling things and have some occasional cathartic sessions, so definitely emotional |

| Intelligent anime can be fun, but it's the emotion an anime gives that always sticks to me so I pick more emotional. |
| Whichever one brings more big booba. |
Echidna best waifu :D |
| if anything I want more creative anime... both emotional and intelligent are fine |
can't yuck my yum  |
| I enjoy both extremes, but I'll vote intelligent because: 1) they're inherently harder to make 2) they're less incentivized, since something well written but with low stakes will never be as popular as "My mom was killed by the enemy in the first episode, I'll have my revenge!!!" |
| Why not both? I think an anime having both is ideal. |

| If the story elicits emotion, then there's presumably some intelligence involved in the writing. More emotional subtlety would be appreciated, such as more body language and unspoken feelings, and less yelling. |
| These things dont contradict eachother. Something can be intelligent and emotional. |

| More intelligent. I get bored quickly if the story is more emotional than intelligent. |
 |
| If more "Intelligence" means more realism from our world, then I would like to have pure emotional content. Anime needs more crazier stuff with more cute n hot waifus. |
| ironically, intelligent anime are usually the most emotional |

@perseii its up to personal interpretation but for me personally emotional anime makes me feel like feeling hype while intelligent anime makes me think aka thought provoking @-Ryu
an example of hype emotional anime for me is gurren lagann the story is not that thought provoking but pure hype
an intelligent or thought provoking anime i can think of is death note being its logical and suspense

deg said: an example of hype emotional anime for me is gurren lagann the story is not that thought provoking but pure hype an intelligent or thought provoking anime i can think of is death note being its logical and suspense OK, so "intelligent" here sounds like "complex story and heavy themes." In that sense, I would like more "intelligent" anime, because I don't think we get many of those these days. More variety is always welcome. |
| I want pseudo-intelligent anime, the type of anime that seem intelligent to dumb people like me, but in fact they aren't. |
| Imo a good anime is decent at both transmitting emotions and making me think (at least a little bit), so I'm at 50/50 I guess :) |
| I prefer emotional, intelligent are a hit or a miss, sometimes they are just way too complicated and not enjoyable. |
Always the same… Every age, every generation. Human beings are infinitely more cruel and selfish than any demon in hell ~Dantalion (Makai Ouji) |
| emotional yes, intelligent maybe not I don't want to get brainfog figuring out the previous episodes themes and conjectures |

I think both are important and can lead to greatness.
But ultimately, I think the emotion is a little more important to me.
That said, i think more often not these two go hand in hand.

APolygons2 said: I think both are important and can lead to greatness. But ultimately, I think the emotion is a little more important to me.

Pretty much as long as both are generally well done and such. |
| More emotional for me. I like such stories so much! |
 |
| Why not both, dear OP? You can actually have both... |
