In terms of romance, Kanade is the main one.
In terms of plot/carrying the story, Yuri is.
If you honestly think Angel Beats would have worked without Yuri, that is delusional. Angel Beats needed a more determined, strong-willed character to lead that crew and act as a polar opposite to Kanade. Which is exactly what Yuri did. Don't disregard Yuri just because she isn't that easy/quiet/kuudere type that has been the most popular archetype for the last 15 years ever since Rei Ayanami hit the screen.
