Money Your are given the opportunity to get 10 million dollars, or animate 10 stories a year
You can have the money tax free, or you can choose to magically animate any storm from any form of media to it's completion 10 times a year. The story is perfectly animated in what ever style you choose, and you can revise the animation 3 times. However you'd have to handle the voice acting and sound effects your self.

So I can write “Anastasia II: Rasputins Revenge” and it will magically become real? This is kinda hard lol. Might be cool

It's possible that I could make more money out of my magic animation production ability but it's pretty complicated, I wouldn't be able to make money from.juat any story, I'd have to have the rights to it, which I wouldn't be able to afford in most cases, tbh I can already do some animation, so maybe I would prefer to have money and just develop the skills I actually have instead of taking a short cut.

Depends on if we also magically get any potential copyright/licensing issues that arise dealt with. There are definitely some comic runs I'd want turned into animation.
Though, I guess I could still just enjoy them for personal use anyway, rights be damned. Can't imagine many people would want to watch an animated version of "The Fountainhead" anyway.
Fuck it, I'm taking the animation.

Animation. I'd animate every manga that I have read that never got an anime, 10 at a time.

10 million. I don't want to be an animation pitch salesman dealing with rights, merchandising, contracts, entertainment lawyers, celebrity voices and shit.
To me this is basically asking "10 million dollars, or partially completed work on something you don't own that you have to try and finish and get people to buy it from you."
Unless it's something like "you can animate the story where a real live person gets platinum kryptonite" so that I actually get a chunk of platinum kryptonite or magic powers or something, then no,
10 million means I'm not wasting my life waiting for a company to unshelve and finish my project to air it.
Other than that, I can magically animate any story I've read already. In my head.

I'm confused. Do you mean I get to make any intellectual property into a cartoon, series or movie ten times a year. OR I get to make a story into a living breathing construct that now exists out in the world?
Because making cartoons is neat and all but money is money.
But fundamentally being able to alter reality several times a year, well that's broken beyond belief.

I was going to say the animation because you could probably make way more than $10 mil from that power until you sai we had to voice act and do sound effects ourselves. THat made me go with the $10 mil.

Not a fan of anime, so I'll take the money
Edit: anime, animation, cartoons, any of it. Not a fan

I can make way more than $10M per year proving to studios that I can make 10 “free” animated movies per year, and we can make sure it’s exactly what they want, how they want it, and prepped for voices. All animation studios worldwide would be fighting and ponying up cash for my abilities.
