there are different types of magic i suppose ...
I mean for different animes and legends and stuff they all involve something different
Eg
Naruto - Nin/Gen/Tai-justsu, Uses hand seals and energy source known as chakra
Advantages - Can use OTT techniques to literally split the world apart
Disadvantages - Uses energy so no going over the top
Harrypotter - Wand magic, uses movements and the announcment of a spell
Advantages - Quick uses no energy source from the body
Disadvantages - Range limited and also knowlege limited
For me though..
Magic through and through, if i knew how to throw fireballs it would be so much more fun that pressing a trigger

Magic.
Going by what most fantasy works tells us (Tolkien, Witcher etc.) a powerful mage is an equivalent of a small nuclear arsenal, capable of teleportation, unleashing attacks that make most type of standard defenses null and even wide-area devastation that can kill thousands in particularly gruesome ways.
But in turn, magic generally takes up quite an effort and time to cast and you need some kind of "talent" in most verses to use it.
Guns are simple to operate and everyone can pull the trigger. granted, you need some training to be any good, but it's always less effort then what any mage would theoretically go through.
...So how about magical guns?

If you were to get blasted by magic, you can theoretically be wiped from existence itself.
If you were to get shot by a gun, you'd be real dead.

That's like asking whether we would prefer a tank or a sports car. Personally, I'd paint flames on my tank to have both.

I would have chosen magic and guns just to get the best of both worlds. I mean come on, you could be some guy who uses magic to make guns appear out of nowhere then.

What is better: something quantifiable or something that can be anything you imagine it to be?

Well, at least with a gunshot, you at least have a chance of surviving. >.>

Seriously, think of how many anime characters can't be even scratched by even the most powerful guns because of some type of insanely powerful energy barrier ie: nen(HXH), chi(DB), Hellsing etc... and surely the attack power doesn't fall behind :P.To top it off usually there's no limit to the power that magic can grow: usually in proportion with anger,determination/willpower, tragic event and so on...

Magic of course : you can use it for other purposes than just killing zombies. You can fly, domesticate pets and even use it to see through walls ^^
