Of the list it's Akira but for Other, it's Fatal Fury: The Motion Picture. It was one of the first anime films I picked up after Akira and I've just loved it since. It's not a great film or anything like some of the ones on the list but I just enjoy it.

Nausicaa was the first anime I watched, and it still is one that I go back to regularly. The version I originally watched was Warriors of the Wind with the terrible English dub, but as a kid I didn't care about that. I would say it's my favorite, but it could also be nostalgia that keeps it in the top spot for me.

Probably The Garden of Words. Another few favorites are End of Evangelion, 5 Centimetres Per Second and Millenium Actress.

I saw Suzume in theatres because I'm a big Makoto Shinkai girlie, but it's weird. I can say I liked just about every scene in that movie, it was a great movie, but I just didn't like it as much as 5 Centimetres or Garden of Words. I guess I'm into more of his normie output, with those two movies being his more grounded fare compared to his pedigree if sci-fi and fantasy.

That being said, I read that Souta was originally meant to be a girl but some executive shot it down. That might have elevated the movie just a little bit more tbh.

Out of those, Your Name, easily.

Gintama: The Very Final, however, was the (and I dont use this word lightly) perfect ending to a long-running shounen series. It is absurdly remarkable when almost all of its peers have wet fart endings. Nothing can compare to watching a show for 15 years and being completely satisfied with the ending.

Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya and I Want to Eat Your Pancreas are also very good.

Best OVA is still GaoGaiGar FINAL btw.

A man of taste.

Also Perfect Blue and Paprika were great.

Out of that list, probably Akira or Spirited Away for me.

Nice to see so many varied answers. It looks like I need to at least see Fist of the North Star and Vampire Hunter D. Also good to see a vote for Redline, worth watching for the unique style of animation alone.

The Garden of Words is a little bit short in terms of length, but a really nice film with superb music.

A lot of people love 5 Centimetres Per Second. It didn't resonate with me that much compared to his other films but it was still enjoyable.

Satoshi Urushihara is the God of bewb physics. Check out his earlier work, Legend of Lemner. Also, check out his other game work in Langrisser and Growlanser as well.

Yes, please do yourself the favor. Some of the greatest classic films in my opinion. Still stands the test of time. I started slowly watching the animated series for Hokuto No Ken (Fist of the North Star) and it's entertaining but in a really silly way. As far as Vampire Hunter D goes, there are so many novels and stories in that universe. Surprised it hasn't been adapted more, especially with all the reboots and remakes lately. I'd love to see some of the other stories come to life. The art work is gorgeous by none other than Yoshitaka Amano (Speed Racer, Final Fantasy).

Nothing in modern animation lives up to the scene where dude grows out of control and his monster sack is one of the first things to plop on the ground. The detail is amazing.

Story sucks but good animation. Feels like Nolan directing it so we can never relate ourselves or feel anything to these characters on screen.
