#1 Drawing Style & Music, I simply love good soundtracks/opening themes, and since I'm watching it, the drawing style should be good so it doesn't hurt my eyes, if any of these isn't good enough for me, then I'll miss out on it x.x

#2 Story, after the above is good I check if the story is a bit good, if it's not, then I'll give it a lil try for 5 more eps, and then prolly quit the anime.

nyehehe I voted 3 times o.o

I'd say I do not have any general order what's the most and least important.

Music. When an anime has good music, it really improves the moments in the anime. Yuki Kajiura's anime music in particular is awesome.

What are the most important aspects*

Anyway, I'd choose everything except Merchandise and Cosplay
But mostly Characters, Animation/Drawing Style and Story

It's really hard to decide on the polls, since there is only two votes.

Anything that doesn't involve yaoi, >=50% loli, i'm fine with. Most important to me is basically a female character i can relate to lol

Unfortunately, I kinda judge an anime by its cover, because if it has mediocre/bad art and animation, I probably won't watch unless it has very good reviews.

Music and Story. I would've chosen Moe stuff too, if there were 3 available votes instead.

Story and Genre. Prefer more of a comedy based manga with good storyline, no fighting. I'd chosen moe and characters too actually...

Sorry, I tend to type the word 'manga' a lot. It's a habit of mine. Yea, so I guess it's anime.....

Character and good Music.
You know, if there are quite good balanced characters, you'll automatically feel with them.
They become dear to you, even though the story might be horribly retarded, you will be forced to hope for the best of them.
And...music, well, it's a buzzthing, i wanted to take entertainment or fun, because Slice of Life things are quite fun and if the interaction between the characters are amusing and entertaining, i will gladly watch anything. -> Spice and Wolf.

The story/plot (For what else do you watch anime?..) and the epicness of their soundtracks.

There were so many things I wanted to pick. I watch anime for mainly entertainment, but what it comes down to is a good story and likeable characters. If it doesn't have both, it's sometimes hard for me to watch. Epic soundtracks, good genres, and great art helps, too.

Drawing style - I'm addicted to eye candy etc.
Music - I can't stand listening to bad soundtracks :<

For me are 4:
Story: It's obvious... without a good story... it has not sense.
Characters: ...You need how to express what you want to say with the characters... I guess...
Drawing Style: It helps to express what characters want to express... personality and drawing style complement each other.
Music: In my opinion, it helps to express everything. I find it absolutely necessary

yeahh!! music !!!! it helps a lot!!!
It doesn't matter if the story and the pictures are perfect, if they are not feature a great soundtrack, sucks!

Well.... All of those are important... But the first impression of a person in an Anime can be the Drawing Style, Story or the Merchandise & Cosplay.... But moreover, all of them are important!!~ :)

I see most choose story, which is soe true imo. If it has good story then it is watchable, aside from comedy

Story and characters!
Because, for me at least, it's pretty impossible to get into the show if the story/plot is really boring. And if the characters aren't interesting, or if there isn't many that are in-depth, how can I even care for them??

Depends on which type of animu I'm watching.

Moe Animu:
1. Moe characters
2. Humorous plot
3. More focused on capturing the slice-of-life feel rather then going through a plot.

Srs Animu:
1. Moe characters
2. Interesting Plot
3. Original Plot
4. The ability to make me cry like a man at any time during the series.

I think this is an automatic result of impact once the anime became (a bit) popular. And carrying the Japanese tradition and language is within the anime itself. So it's impossible to find an anime without the anime (if you know what I mean).
