character vs plot, which is better?

Well written characters.   reply

interesting characters make interesting stories: for example in Dungeon Meshi in the first few episodes the basic concept is eating and looking for food, but the characters are so unique that regardless it still makes the story enjoyable   1 reply

what's the point of a good story when the characters are ass?   3 reply

Well written characters cause if the plot's ass then I can just hop on to good ol AO3 and find some god tier fanfic that's probably better than the og about it   1 reply

Probably well written characters cuz I love saiki k. Also I read a lot of stories with terrible or basic plots but it's always the change in characters that makes me stay.   reply

well written character. people underestimate how a trashy unseasoned character can quite literally ruin even the best plots. it is the characters who make the story, not the story that makes the character. example: mushoku tensei. i heard the plot is nice but why would i even watch that show when i know the mc is trash?   reply
