It is actually a very good movie. That said, I too would have liked Kara no Kyoukai to rank above it, as I love the movie, and all the other 6 movies in the series as well, though to be honest the 5th movie is perhaps even better than the 7th.

And frankly, I'm not surprised. Trying to cram all of UBW into a 90 minute anime movie? I don't think so...

I loved all of the Kara no Kyoukai Movies though, and put together, they are a fantastic series. I think it should be higher up.

Yes, but these are the top movies of the fiscal year, not the calendar year. It varies by country, but in Japan's case the fiscal year runs from April 1st to March 31st.

I will reserve my impression of the Macross F movie though, since I haven't seen it, but if it's anything like the last third of the television series, I will most likely despise it.

And I say "despite" because you seem to think it is a bad thing, personally, I think many of the oldest stories of humanity are among the best ever.

IT'S ACTUALLY NOT A TROLL. Remember, Japanese call all of the animated movies "anime", thus it can be on the list if the sales are high enough.

Evangelion 2.0 and Summer Wars were always contenders for the top 2 spot, though this is the first time I've seen Eva 2.0 beating Summer Wars. Maybe Dengeki's overseas subscribers helped tipped the scales in Eva 2.0's favour? Considering Summer Wars has yet to be shown outside Japan. The influence of anime in Japan itself is plain to see as Oscar-winning "Up" only ranked 8th in Top 10 Animated movies of the year. (I guess this should also be considered as a compliment for Pixar, with its meaningful and actually quite mature stories alongside its CG animation skills managing to break into the anime dominated Japanese market. ) Not surprised by the ranking.

Therefore this may be the reason that the movies released early this year is placed in 2009.
