Well, I'm just wondering what people think on the animation side of a character. Most people choose a character based on their racials or because they want to play a class or randomness. I choose based off animations because that's what you'll be seeing 80% of the time. By animations I mean the way they look casting or 1H/2H melee attacking.
In my opinion, I think Female Draenei have the best casting animations, Female Trolls have the best 1H animations, and Male Gnomes have best 2H animations.
On the other hand i think Male Draenei have the worst casting animations, Female Blood Elves have the worst 1H animations, and Undead Males have the worst 2H animations.
But those are just my aesthetic opinions. What about you guys?

Gnomes have by far the best death animation, both male and female. They're extremely satisfying to kill.

I think the female NE casting is strange. Standing on one foot while casting? Come on.

The best animation is when the Necromancer criticals...
Oh woops, wrong game.
I personally "like" the Orc Shoulders...theyre often bigger than the owner's head!

Male Night Elf firing a bow. It's just flat painful to watch.
Thank Cenarius for
Savory Deviates
when it gets to be too much.

Oh yea, another awesome animation is the male bloodelf using melee abilities (especially more so on a warrior (Sindorei Orb FTW!).

I actually really hate the male night elf death animation... it's like he's doing a soap opera death: "Oh god noes! I can't die! *falls on knees* No wai gaiz! *reaches to skies* Save me! ARGGGGGGGGGH! *Flops over*..."
And recently I've discovered how cool tauren stealth animation is. If you haven't seen it, becomee an engineering rogues.

I don't know if anybody else has noticed, but when the Female Nelf casts, and her hands go forward, there is a -very- distinctive jiggle to her *ahem* chest. It puts me off just a little.

For killing I like male NEs and BEs... they both look like they wanted to live so much and I deprived them of that basic right... Very satisfying. :) Femmes not so much but I still enjoy killing them because they're so abundant.
Casting I hate male BE, the twirly hands thing is horrible. I like undead male casting tho and draenei isn't bad either.
Fighting I absolutely love undead females. Their unarmed attack is awesome and their 1h heroic strike flips are cool too. Male Draeneis are cool with staves as well.
Dwarves have aweful HS hits, that turn around thing looks f'in retarded. I like the male BE SoC / Crusader Strike animation tho, reminds me of Street Fighter Ken's flying uppercut.
