Which had games with the better setting? For me WRPGs overall have always had more rich and engrossing worlds..

Which had games with the better music? JRPGs. Although WRPGs have fantastic ambient music and fit really well with the gameplay I often find myself listening to the tracks of JRPGs casually.

Which had games with better game design (How the game works)? WRPGs, I generally find that WRPGs have much better pacing than JRPGs and it feels a bit more balanced too.

Which had games with the better combat gameplay? WRPGs, just personal preference.

Which had games with the better story? JRPG plots are a bit more fantastic but I find they suffer from cliches/tropes and bad writing. WRPGs are more coherent and better written I think.

Overall WRPGs, although I am heavily generalizing, there are still quite a few JRPGs I love.
