Anyway, I've flown by SQ and ANA before (in business and economy): SQ always has good service. This time ANA had grumpy flight attendants. I don't know what upset them, but they weren't as good as Japanese people usually are.
But if you've never flown SQ before, I'd say fly them just for the experience.
I think grumpy FAs can happen on any airline (even SQ), so for sake of comfort I would choose PE over economy.
ANA's service is pretty good, and the food is quite decent. However the IFE movies can be a bit dated, unless you enjoy Japanese dramas (very updated).
I would suggest the following:
1. If you plan to sleep through the flight PE with ANA
2. If you plan to catch up on movies or tv shows, and the flight is short (7 hr or less) go with SQ
