The Space Captain Harlock movie had a budget of 20 million. Don't know if this is the highest though.

We recently had a thread about this. It was that new Princess Kaguya movie. Then again some longrunners in the 10 or 20+ years they've been airing my have surpassed it. Though for one episode or movie Kaguya probably wins.

"Saint Seiya: Legend of the Sanctuary" supposedly cost $100 million to make.

It's obviously bullshit, I mean it's gotta be, no way they spent that much money on such a piece of shit.

Last I remember, I believe Steamboy was the most expensive anime, with $20 million behind it.

I'm a little hesitant on counting The Spirits Within as anime, because Wikipedia trusted sources identify it as an American film, despite the fact that the director and two out of three producers are Japanese and that it has an entry on MAL.
And I mean that in the most sexually painful way possible.

Yup that was the final verdict of the last thread. If we don't count that one because, well, the budget was in dollars not Yen, Princess Kaguya is still the winner with I think 50 million USD (5 Billion Yen).
I probably regret this post by now.
