Though what reviews are there are pretty good! These Fresh movies include classics like The Castle of Cagliostro, Perfect Blue, and Vampire Hunter D, along with newer favorites Promare, Maquia: When the Promised Flower Blooms, and A Silent Voice. Though anime has bubbled up in pop culture over the last two decades, many of these Fresh-rated films still need reviews to cross the Certified Fresh threshold. These are movies seen by a wide swath of critics for potential wide audiences, including most films by Hayao Miyazaki ( Kiki’s Delivery Service, The Wind Rises), Isao Takahata ( The Tale of Princess Kaguya, Only Yesterday), Satoshi Kon ( Tokyo Godfathers, Paprika), Mamoru Hosoda ( Belle, The Boy and the Beast, Mirai), and Makoto Shinkai ( Weathering With You).Īfter those are the Fresh movies, and a definitely rewarding dive for fans. The list begins with Certified Fresh films first: Movies with at least 75% on the Tomatometer after enough critics reviews (40 or 80 reviews, depending on the type of release).

The Tomatometer takes on the best anime movies of all time! That means we’re ranking everything from the feverishly dark 1980s/1990s films ( Akira, Ghost in the Shell, Ninja Scroll), to the Studio Ghibli golden era ( Princess Mononoke, Spirited Away, Grave of the Fireflies), and into today’s mainstream renaissance ( Your Name, Demon Slayer, Jujutsu Kaisen 0).
