| Hi fellow animelovers, I recently started watching anime movies and i must admit, i like it alot :) So i started off with some much appreciated ones, often called masterpieces, like Spirited Away and 5 Centimeters Per Second. Trying to find more of these wonderful movies, i was wondering if you guys could post some anime movies here which you consider to be masterpieces (and maybe add why? =D) Thanks ^_^ |
| Sword of The Stranger, don't really have a reason to like it, I just do. |
A man of few words. |
| Princess Mononoke, Nausicaa: Valley of the wind (same style as Spirited Away), Grave of the Fireflies (must see, but very hard and emotional movie), The place promised in our early days, and many more ! :) |

| Whisper of the Heart and Perfect Blue |
| *points towards the recommendation board* Anyway, Toki wo Kakeru Shoujo (The Girl who Lept Through Time) is a good one, so get it off your plan to watch list. As for Ghibli movies, My Neighbor Totoro is my favourite. |
Current FAL Ranking + Previous best::  [ |
| Just watch everything Studio Ghibli made. You can just google Studio Ghibli. Some other really good movies ill add in: Tekkon Kinkreet Wonderful Days Tokyo Godfathers Perfect Blue Paprika |
| Only Yesterday |
| Akira, what? |
| Perfect Blue |
 Waratte Oemashou Sore ha Chiisana Inori |
| Memories Angel's Egg Only Yesterday Oseam |
| Interstella 5555, I wasn't sure what rating to give it honestly because there's nothing else quite like it in the anime world. |
| Any Studio Ghibli film (I really didn't like Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind though, wasn't so good...) Fullmetal Alchemist: The Conqueror of Shambala was pretty cool too (have to see the series to understand it though... |
 |
| While there are some great anime feature films, I regard very few as masterpieces. I tend be a little more exclusive with that label because I believe a true masterpiece transcends its medium. In other words, I think an anime masterpiece is something anyone can enjoy even if they don't know what anime is or even care. A few that come to mind: Grave of the Fireflies Perfect Blue Millennium Actress Tokyo Godfathers Summer Wars The Wings of Honneamise Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind |
| Sword of the Stranger Tales of Vesperia |
| Paprika, from Satoshi Kon, they way which reality and dreams are mixed is impressive =) |
| id say all 4 of the Evangelion movies,Sword of the stranger,summer wars,akira and mononoke. |
| Summer Wars Paprika Millenium Actress virtually anything Ghibli The Girl Who Leapt Through Time The Place Promised in our Early Days |
 |
| Summer Wars |
     |
| Any of Myuzaki's movies, cause the mans a genuis. |
| I'd say Kara no Kyoukai (especially the 5th one) and Summer Wars are my personal masterpieces. Eva 2.22 is close, but I thought they could've handled characterization better. |
    |
| Cat Soup: Both mentally disturbing, and in the epitome itself. Despite this also having an amazing plot with an underlying story as well. |
| And the Evangelion movies, for better results watch the series before it. Summer Wars is also a great one. |

 |
| I would definatly suggest Kara no Kyoukai Maybe, Blood: The Last Vampire Final Fantasy VII - Advent Children Kakurenbo (this one was pretty fun in my opinion xD ) |
 |
| You should check out everything Satoshi Kon has made up to this point and the Kara no Kyoukai movies. If you want good examples of movies based on pre-existing anime, I recommend The Cowboy Bebop movie, the Utena movie, and The End of Evangelion. I would recommend Mamoru Hosoda's films, but I need to see them myself. I want to see The Girl Who Leapt Through Time so badly! >_< |

| I dont want to duplicate any of the movie above but all of them you need to check out. Air the movie is also a masterpiece that most people discredit cause is a movie based on an anime but could stand on its own as a great movie, and it my opinion could stand with movies like Spirited Away, 5cm per second and the Girl that leapt thought time. |

| clannad the movie XD just kidding i don't really watch movies unless its from a series so maybe pokemon the first movie |
| Almost every single movie of hayao miyazaki is a masterpiece! he is the one who made Spirited away, princess mononoke, my neighbor totoro, Howl's moving castle, Kiki's delivery and many more! hayao miyazaki is like Walt Disney for the Asians XDDDD |
| lol I am the allmighty Tuki of DOOM! ----- I♥ANIME |
| It's been said, and it's completely true. Princess Mononoke. It's the first and only anime to ever get a 10 from me. |
| Princes Mononoke is a movie set above all the rest. It story, artwork, and actors really make this one special. Sword of the stranger is also a great piece that tell the story and a wonderer |
| for me it's obvious 5 centimeters per second and clannad movie.. to be honest i havent seen any other, but i believe they are georgeus <3 |
| Place promised in our early days... |
 "The other side of the other side of the other side would be the other side" |
| Princess Mononoke Grave of the Fireflies Paprika Akira |
| The Girl Who Leapt Through Time. Only. Nothing else. Watch this first. |
