Calling this list the 10 best anime titles of all time may be a misnomer. The original comparison was the top 10 visually stunning pieces, outshining Disney/Pixar’s body of work. The list presented by Screenhead is as follows:
10: 5CM Per Second (2007)
9: Cowboy Bebop (2001)
8: Tokyo GodFathers (2003)
7: Princess Mononoke (1997)
6: Paprika (2006)
5: Howl’s Moving Castle (2004)
4: Ghost in The Shell (1995)
3: Grave of The Fireflies (1988)
2: Akira (1988)
1. Spirited Away (2001)
Now, admittedly I am a Miyazaki fan, but this list was a bit heavy on his works. Leaving out works like Perfect Blue, and Robot Carnival (once of the first I ever saw) isn’t understandable for me. I have yet to see 5CM Per Second, but will be adding this to my near range to-see list for comparison.
For the anime movie fans out there, what would is lacking from this list that you have seen?

I really liked 5CM Per Second, but it’s not for everybody. It’s an artistic love story with zero action. If you check out 5CM you should also check out Makoto Shinkai’s other great films Place Promised of Our Early Days, and Voices of a Distant Star. In all honesty, 5CM was almost a modern day remake of Voices of a Distant Star.
