Top 10 Anime Movies of All Time

Slightly upset that Totoro made the list, but otherwise I am completely okay with this. lmao at weeaboos lamenting the fact that only real masterpieces of Japanese culture and storytelling were chosen.

A Top 10 list with 13 items is a fail by definition.

I was a little disappointed that Totoro was chosen, but otherwise I am completely okay with this. lmao at dumb japanophiles raging that only true masterpieces of Japanese culture and narrative were chosen.

Kenshin movies was good, fun movies, but not masterpieces.

Having seen the most of the list I can pretty much agree on those titles making the top. An OVA based on famous series doesn't yet mean that it's an outstanding movie on its own.
Though my favorite has always been Spirited Away and I would have wanted to see it taking at least some spot.

Btw does anyone know where to torrent Summer Wars with English subs?

Miyazaki films with their Shinto references are always gonna dominate. Much in the same way that any film in the West with as much violence, profanity, and sex as it can handle in an hour and a half would. But I'm not gonna knock. Miyazaki films are classic. Princess Mononoke (the more blunt Shinto film), Kiki's Delivery Service (the more useless film), and Spirited Away are my favorites by him though... the rest of these I can't see how save for Akira, GotF, and Taiyō no Ōji. GitS needs to be up there, no doubt.

Well, the first movie is a classics no doubt. I didn't appreciate Gits2:Innocence at all. Solid State Society was good but not too outstanding on its own.

Urusei Yatsura 2? and missing,
- Spirited Away
- Princess Mononoke
- GITS
- Millennium Acress or Paprika

Though I can't give the list a fail since just yesterday I was extolling how good Nausicaa is - so glad to see it at #2.

the only i could complain of be out of the list is Porco Rosso, cause is my favorite Miyazaki film, but I can understand why is not there.

Ya know, this may sound strange, since I haven't even seen it yet, but somehow I expected Paprika up there. I really do need to watch that... but it's a very big surprise to see Summer Wars up with those titles and it's a recent one. *goes to watch it*

IMHO If Jin-Roh isn't there it's an auto-fail.

no Makoto Shinkai films?

It's disappointing.. there's not even one Makoto Shinkai Movies,
How do these panelist of judges 'judge' it ?... still shrouded in mysteries

Paprika was good in the same way Ultraviolet was good, or the way a porno is good. Visually. The plot was just strong enough to hold together the action scenes.

It does not deserve to be on the list.

Sword of the Stranger deserves to be on this list, purely by virtue of that single godfuckingawesomely done sword fight.

Seven samurai and DBZ movie 8 :( Brolly!
Dont feed me please

I don't see anything wrong with the list. While the movies that you guys mention are good, but it's not as good as the ones mentioned above, which IMO is culturally significant for the Japanese, and not for the weeboes wannabes

Grave of the Fireflies > Castle of Cagliostro

Where is place 8 & 9?

You think the K-ON! movie will make this list?

At least the mouth moved, which is better than a lot of anime

lol, thats true.

I can't comprehend how Oshii can be so acclaimed. He make very simple matters look more complex than they should be with long existential self-questioning sequences. And people praise him for this brain masturbation.
I mean, I love questionning, but sometimes it just becomes stupid.

I'm glad his works aren't in this top, it shows the judges weren't fooled.

And I agree with 13:03 anon, the TV shows are the real thing. They truly empathize the good aspect of Shirow's works.

(I know I'm gonna get downed, weaboos =p )

What the fuck with japan, each one of them is better than Castle in the Sky

Agreed. Why has Japan's best animation director been left off the list. Where are 'Perfect Blue', 'Millenium Actress', 'Tokyo Godfathers' and 'Paprika'?

Yup, at least one Satoshi Kon movie should be on the list. The list is quite lopsided. Oh well...

I can tell you've not seen many foreign films.

Yup, Mononoke Hime should be up there as well.

Pfft. Almost every Ghibli should be on the list, maybe with the exception of Howl's Moving Castle, that shit just confused me more than anything. Good art though, can't hate good art.

Could you, possibly, use punctuation? Your comment came on as a run-on sentence that didn't mean much. We really are interested in what you have to say...you just have to put it a way that we can understand.

You never heard of any of those, Abel? O_O
Those are good movies. I saw them all, save Taiyō no Ōji.
It's just that the list misses some extraordinary ones. Diversity wouldn't hurt, either. Oh well...

I'm seriously only heard about Akira and Totoro even though i didnt watch the movies.
But the rest of them is a mistery to me...

@abel-liegod-2
Perhaps you should put a rest to Naruto or Bleach or whatever mainstream shit you watch.

At least try to culture yourself.

Sorry, not interested in any of those shit movies.
I rather watch the shit i already know like One Piece and Bleack thank you.

then you are SERIOUSLY missing out, I wont lie and say I saw them all but some (for example, Akira) are great and although I do like One Piece...you really are only making yourself look ignorant as all hell
then again that is the stereotype for people who only watch those anime, hell met someone who loved Naruto but never even heard of Cowboy Bebop, how that is possible is beyond me

That lil troll got fed enough to last a full winter of hibernation. GJ abel

I have to discuss anime online because people in my area only know what they see on Adult Swim. <.<

Have people never heard of a troll.

summer wars have a great plot and deserve to be seen but the artistic realisation is shitty ,TV anime quality for me (with just a little better animation)
