I think what makes the best animation regardless of style is mostly solid fundamentals and timing
Animation is grounded on real life but the point of it is to outdo and exaggerate it (not necessarily more wild movements but more feeling - imo part of why rotoscoping is so uncanny looking) by emphasizing parts of the actions using the 12 principles

People always recommend reading Richard William's "Animator's Survival Kit" and for good reason def check that out and start practicing animating now. It's probably gonna suck but everyone starts somewhere.
I'm def still working on it so take all this with a grain of salt
