Where POV-Ray shines most in animation is those applications where 
motion follows a path that has a solid mathematical basis.  Character 
animation does not lend itself to hand-edited scripts, but the motion of 
planets and many kinds of mechanical objects (and non-humanoid robots) 
is very elegantly described with numeric expressions in scripts.
