No narration. I only like narration if it’s really necessary or you’re telling something like a backstory.

Well I prefer no narration (unless it’s narrating an art scene). I will read stories with some narration but if it’s very heavy in narration, well I won’t read it. Mainly because when the author narrates everything, there are LOTS of grammatical errors and I CAN’T stand that.

I prefer with narration, maybe it’s because I just love reading in general. But I prefer being able to imagine what’s going on with well written narration rather than janky animations and stuff, it throws me off. But that’s just personal opinion!

I don’t mind narrations only when they are vital, usually for spotlight stories, but I hate when authors narrate their characters’ whole backstory and turn their stories into novels. Show, don’t tell. Episode is a VISUAL storytelling app.

I like narration if it’s from the main character’s point of view, but not excessively describing everything that’s going on around them. 
Narration for art scenes is nice, but as previously stated, in moderation is enjoyable for me! Having no narration at times can also be nice.
