    Maqiua is Toshiyuki Inoue's modern masterpiece. He drew 1/3 of the entire movie in terms of animation (his action scenes with the dragons, in particular, were monstrously impressive despite pushing out ROUGH GENGA that looked insanely clean; they're on the P.A Works YT channel. He pushed out even more layouts, and was also an assistant animation director. Everything still had tension and feel.
    I don't want to steal the spotlight away from all the other amazing staff members though. However, I really feel like this movie was a great way for him to show off his skills through integrating himself in a more commonly idealistic style, working alongside younger talents at P.A Works.

    Metropolis will always be a special animation to me. I remember first seeing it when I was about 10 years old playing on Cartoon Network, I was absolutely hooked and came straight back to the television after each ad break. The ending absolutely broke me, I remember crying the first time I saw it and being so taken aback by the soundtrack of the whole film - especially the finale song. Definitely one of the main inspirations that spurred my love of animation.

    I’m so happy Maquia is on this list. My sister and I JUST watched this on a whim. Not only was it beautiful, I’ve never had a film shake me to the core and make me profusely cry more than it. I just lost my grandfather very early on in life (he was 62) so the cycle of life and death was something that hit me. It’s also the film that has helped me come to the realization that I want to become a mother one day.

    Some animations people often overlook are by ADGT by Hanna Barbara. Just Fantastic animation.
    And Universals, Spirit, Stallion of the Cimarron. Both have just gorgeous amounts of animation and details to each and the colors are different and unique, they are often overlooked animations that not too many will see as useful until you actually watch and look at how gorgeous the animation is. The movement and unique styles of them both. Spirit does use a bit of older 3D modeling too with an overlay of hand drawn animation during the flight scenes of the eagles and the running of the horses. Super great for those wanting to see animation overlay.
    Another overlooked animation for that is the painted Aurthurs Christmas. Painted to look 3-D modeled when in fact it took years to create and it’s all just beautiful. Arron Blaise is another great Animator who shows snippets of his animations online on UA-cam. And sometimes streams the process with his SnowBear sketches! :) Good luck all you lovely animator souls!

    THank you for the recommendations! I watched Metropolis for the first time not too long ago and was quite stunned by it and I'm probably due another viewing.
    I've never heard of Princess Arete or Maquia before but they both look really interesting and beautiful.

    Recently before I watched this video I saw Princess Arete, and it brought back something I thought was lost. It’s truly a story about enteral strength within one self, and the hypocrisy that are in our tale.

    Two of the three movies were those i watched as a young teen. I had forgotten about them. I spent much time in my childhood trying to cope by watching these movies, and i often related with melancholy they presented. I don't often comment on youtube videos, but thank you for reminding me of these memories i'd forgotten.

    I remember seeing Metropolis when it first came out at our local cinema and I remember really loving it. I always loved the Anime Film Festivals when they rolled around....also saw Cowboy Bebop movie at the cinema the same way.
    Loved seeing both of them on the big screen.
    Great movie selection here.... some nice looking movies :)

    I watched Metropolis before and may have to watch it again at some point, since I'm a big Tezuka fan. I remember it being very good, even if a couple of the music choices towards the end are kinda distracting. And I watched Princess Arete a couple of days ago, since it was featured on Studio4C's UA-cam page until Dec. 2nd. Very beautiful and meaningful, if a little too slow-paced at times, but I don't usually mind slower paced films. Haven't seen Maquia yet, though.
