You might think that "anime" started with the first serialized TV shows in the 1960s, but Japan had been making animation long before this, in the form of short films. This article aims to give a tour through the history and evolution of early Japanese animation that led to the serialized shows of the 1960s that eventually led to where we are today. At present, there are over 200 early Japanese animations that have survived and are easily viewable. Here, 44 stand-out works in the chronological evolution of early animation are highlighted for you to check out. All animations listed here can be found online, with English subtitles when needed!

A list of classic Toei Animation films. Some are better than others but, in general, they are interesting titles to see and analyze from different perspectives, especially, from the perspective of the history of anime and its international distribution.

This list includes those anime films distributed on VHS, DVD and Blu-Ray in Mexico. Currently, due to the death of the home format in Mexico, they are all discontinued editions, but they are collectible pieces for every Mexican anime fan.

Toei Animation was Japan's first major animation studio. Throughout the 1960s, they made several films inspired by American studios such as Disney. These movies tend to have animation more fluid than that of the average anime.

Anime list inspired from the Chinese Buddist Book "Journey to The West", who thews the stories of adventures of the Monkey King Son Wukong (Son Goku, on Japan).
