Best Anime Movies that Aren't Made by Studio Ghibli

The Top Ten
1 Neon Genesis Evangelion: The End of Evangelion
2 Akira

This movie revolutionized a lot for both anime and movies in general when it came out. It had such a good story that many people were first introduced into anime from this very movie. Akira is credited as on of the pioneers that brought anime to a western audience, along with Dragon Ball and a couple of others. Akira is one of the most important anime films in the whole medium.

3 Ghost In the Shell
4 Wolf Children
5 Cowboy Bebop: The Movie
6 Paprika
7 Kimi No Na Wa
8 Koe No Katachi

A Silent Voice... if you don’t cry watching this movie, it’s because you don’t have tear-ducts. Something sad and depressing happens one after another. At the ending, you just have to let it all out. The music at the ending, the animation and visuals and voice acting is just gorgeously upsetting. I totally recommend this so much more than Spirited Away.
