Also in 2015, the live action Attack on Titan movies (Part 1 and Part 2) were also given their EU premiere at SLA.

Music is perfect when it comes to stimulating your emotions and imagination. When I'm in a funk, these perk me right back up and get my creative juices a-flowing, and maybe they'll help you, too. (Requests welcome.)

There used to be a trend back in the day to retell anime tv series into movies. These movies were complete remakes like "Macross: Do You Remember Love?" which essentially rearranged the core pieces of their shows to make a more condensed 2 hour experience. I've always thought these films were interesting because we get 2 versions of the same story, so I thought I'd make a list of them.

Anime with OST's that will make you shout, sob or even make you doubt your existence...

Standalone anime movies from 2000-2009.
Other Movies:
Cencoroll (Short)

The final installment of Ocean Productions dubbed anime featuring the dubbed movies!

A list of non-Macross Anime series that was created and/or directed by Shouji Kawamori.
Its ordered from oldest anime series to newest. (Anime that was not animated by Satelight comes first).

This does not include any anime where he only directed for one episode.
All contents of a non-Macross series is included if he is the series creator with the exception of recaps.

The stack description of each anime will clarify if he was the director of an anime but not the creator.
Contact me if I missed anything and I'll update the stack.

Just some classic physical cels and hard work.

Try to get the blu-ray or 4K version of these works (if they exist and after you've checked them to see if you like them) because the high-resolution scans are clean and really help bring out the texture and color of these works. And yes, it looks better on physical media than streaming always.

Ordered somewhat by aesthetic preference.

(Disclaimer: on the off chance something is digitally constructed let me know)

P.S. let me know if there's something i should check out?

Every anime I could find that still used cel animation during the early 2000s
