How much value do you put into visual direction?

Fuck off.

I'm retarded so it makes no difference to me

Enough so that I don't pretend that trash is any good.

It should complement the plot and not try to hide it if it's bad.

yawn

Enough to favorite a show assuming the story is decent. I can't enjoy a show entirely unless both conditions are met.

Ah, I missed those threads

>>161988982
Not a lot. I care more about story and characters.

>>161988982
What is visual direction, exactly?

>>161993005
The presentation is important.

A lot more since I saw what a difference a new director made in VRAINS.

A lot, if they're gonna use a visual medium to tell a story they should use every opportunity to tell a story through the images too

5 out of 10. It needs to at least look like it wasn't animated without anti-aliasing, and I need to be able to tell what every object on the screen is at all times. After that, I don't care, but I am appreciative if you make it look nice.
