Best animated? Perhaps.
Best story? Hell no.

No, the Haruhi movie is.

Next Thread.

girls und panzer der film close second

yes

get out

Dweee the manga was better.

Yeah it's probably up there. Top 10 for me, I think. Certainly one of the most important. My pick for overall best would be like Totoro or something though.

>Not EoE

Obviously.

My Conquest is the Sea of Stars.

One Piece Movie 6: Baron Omatsuri and the Secret Island

Inuyasha movie 5

>9 replies in
>no single mention of Miyazaki's masterpiece

Ones based on TV shows shouldn't count

I guest EoE doesn't count then either

The movies suck, and inspired the worst thing ever tied to Eva (the Rebuild series)

You're dumb.

please be troll

what's in there except the animation ?

You shouldn't just flamboyantly wave around your shit taste like that. Show some restraint.

Eve no Jikan

No.

EoE
Disappearance
Perfect Blue
GitS: Innocence
5 Centimeters Per Second

Kara no Kyoukai Chapter 5

Nausicaa is better

Only Yesterday
The Wings of Honneamise
Umi ga Kikoeru
Metropolis
Angel's Egg
Millennium Actress
The Sky Crawlers

There aren't many decent stand-alone anime movies.

Why are you guys replying to a rec thread?

Why are you posting on a rec board?

no, if we're thinking of the best anime movie of all time, it's tekkonkinkreet, without a doubt

Influential? Yes.
Masterpiece? No.

But the manga is better. The filthy gaijin who directed it did an okay job, though.

Suffer not these fools, OP, Hon Ran (aka Crimson Wolf) is clearly the best anime movie of all time.

Lucky for us, it's available subbed here:
veoh.com/watch/v20906023PEn7GMHK

or here (worse quality):

There's also a wonderful english dub, but good luck finding that.


Oh god, Hon Ran is so bad; it's only one hour, but it's the longest hour in animated history

...

Agreed, To cut 5 volumes into one movie really didnt work well. The manga is pretty cash money tho

no, not even close
/thread

Akira was ahead of it's time, but Paprika is the best anime movie of all time.

>GitS: Innocence
It always makes me happy to see this.

Between this and the above post the only thing I'd add is the 'Animerama' trilogy. I think they're all worthy, not just Belladonna of Sadness.

Because I hate Sup Forums.

>plotfags

Certainly not that boring crap

Sorry OP, forced animation does not count.

Gintama movie 2 was the funniest .

As a stand alone movie, it was alright. As as adaptation of one of my favorite manga, it was not as alright.

It felt condensed and rushed plot-wise.

For what it was, it was influential and groundbreaking for its time, but influential doesn't always mean great or even good.

While I enjoyed the GuP movie a lot, I feel like there were a lot of missed opportunities to show more interaction between the girls. Best girl hardly even got any lines at all

plot doesn't matter

Fucking this

Sure it does. That said, Akira's plot is great.

For what its worth there wont ever be another movie that looks as spectacular as Akira. Especially since we moved from cel animation to digital production.

Akira could only have happened in the 80s, right at the peak of excess, of money and indulgence. You couldn't make the same film now, it just wouldn't be possible.

It fails largely as an adaptation of Katsumoto's manga, but as a film nothing will ever look better.

Kaguya-hime

what was really missing from the manga though?
It seems to me that nearly all the stuff that was not included in the movie was just action that wasn't of huge plot significance.
remember that Otomo directed and completed the movie before completing the manga


Akira himself is an empty doll early all the time , so it's no great loss for him to be kept as a serious of test tubes.
the volume where people are just running through the streets of tokyo with akira trying to hide from the military who are also trying to find akira is just action without much dramatic significance.

then akira blows up when he sees his friend get shot, great.
then you timeskip to ruined neotokyo and all that happens here is a turf war between the the pscyhic buddhist faction and the psychic punks led by tetsuo.
Again ot's interesting and entertaining action but kind of treading water.

then you have a volume of tetsuo showing off his powers as he's able to morph into jet plains and attacks a naval fleet. again, fun action but no huge loss drama-wise.

then you have the finale in the stadium which is pretty much the same as the movie except that in the movie it is the army activating the satellite laser while in the manga it is the army commander by himself.

and btw Otomo actually created the stadium finale for the movie before he drew it in the manga.

So again I ask you what of great significance was missing from the movie?
everything sigificant about kaneda and tetsuo's relationship and their storyarcs against each other is covered.

I really do not think Akira himself or the post-akira-explosion turf war arc added that much. they were fun but not of crucial importance to the drama or tone. maye you could make a case for them having thematic importance? but I don't think so

It matters to people that it was removed because it not being there makes the film a shitty adaptation. The film still does a good job of conveying the relationship between Kaneda and Tetsuo but cutting out a lot of the characters and other plot details, as well as the action involved in all of it, makes it not as good for a lot of fans of the manga. Also I really don't appreciate the way a lot of characters are treated very differently in the film compared to the manga.

On the whole it feels shallow and while a beautiful film, it is a shitty adaptation.

nausicaa is a lot clumsier, more poorly plotted because it takes the first hour from the manga (which has a much larger story) then tries to tack on an ending and the music is painful to listen to.

that's very shallow and superficial to expect a film to have a 5 hour running length and include everything from the manga even though most of what is ommitted is far from crucial to the tone or drama of the manga.

is akira ABOUT the turf war? or ABOUT running and hiding through the streets of tokyo while dragging along akira and trying to evade the army?
how is it a shallow adaptation if it includes all the most important and dramatically signifcant parts and characters from the manga?
I can't think of any cahracters being treated differently in a big way apart from the clown gang leader guy becomes a good guy by the end of the manga and the buddhist cult leader only has a cameo in the film

This thread is shit.

Best is far too subjective, however as far as importance goes it is probably the most important anime movie.

...

The story of the film conveys all of the themes that the manga does.

nope.
