Neither of those categories alone mean anything to me.

I like a character when when they considerably satisfy me in some or most of these categories: Design, Background, Development, Abilities and/or Personality.
I consider a character one of my favorites when they score even higher in most or all of those categories.

Personality.

I great example why personality is more important than power is Kaguya. She's the most powerful being in the Narutoverse, but she was completely bland and boring. She literally has no fanbase.

While characters like Rocklee or Hidan are overflowing with personality and aren't the most powerful characters in the series.

Both have their merits. A healthy combination of both is ideal. All of my favorites have the same goals of bettering humanity and giving their all to secure a safer, prosperous future for the ones that follow, which one cannot do as a weakling. That's not to say my liking of them is dependent on their martial status completely, but without their strength of body, their strength of mind and spirit cannot exist.

So, it goes hand in hand for me. However, anybody that judges the reasons why somebody favorites a character is a condescending, insecure little prick. Just because somebody sees power or fighting ability as an attractive quality and likes said character for that alone doesn't make it any less substantial. Picking preferences like this is entirely subjective.
