    akira has some of the most masterful animation of any animated film. yeah, the story is bastardized from the manga (read it, it's 10x better) but the animation in akira was a big deal at the time and still looks incredible. we will never have animation like this on this scale and budget ever again probably.

        yeah, the amount of 1s in akira is pretty incredible and the hand painted cels are a piece of history. the old ghibli films on cels are incredible too.

      At the level of akira ,animation wise, there have been 3-4 films post 2000

      Redline

      Tale of the Princess Kaguya

      Whatever the best animated miyazaki film is from that stretch (probably ponyo?)

      Children of the Sea

      Also a personal pick: GITS 2 Innocence. The amount of realist character animation with complicated af designs is insane
