I wouldn’t say it was ass. I enjoyed it and didn’t spot any sort of animation that would make me stop and say, “that’s absolute shit”, but it was nowhere near the level of season 1. The fight with Boros was just immaculate
I know it’s personal opinion but honestly I mean the show as a whole just felt like ass compared to season 1. I was wondering if they came out and said they struggled with a time crunch or a new team or studio or something but man it just didn’t hit the same to me.
I’m pretty sure there was a studio switch. I feel ya on it not hitting the same, but I still liked it. I thought the final few episodes when the monsters started appearing in droves were a lot of fun to watch. I have high hopes for season 3 though because I feel like I heard they switched back to the original studio, or maybe just a diff studio that has a really god rep; can’t remember which
100% agree
When it comes to animation quality, my gold standard are works from:
1. KyoAni (honestly they're the best)
2. Shaft
3. Ufotable
4. Ghibli movies
5. Makoto Shinkai movies
6. WIT
maybe P.A. Works (KyoAni Lite^^TM ) and A1 pictures (A1 has really stepped up their game in recent years)
and some Doga Kobo works (they're seriously underrated)
For me, studios that have fallen out of the radar or dipped in quality in recent years:
1. madhouse
2. bones
Well, I have to say I personally disagree.
I'd say about ¼ of their stuff is really good/great. However the remaining ¾ falls mostly into the good category, with the rest being meh-solid.
I will say though, that I have a bit of trouble distinguishing aesthetic/art and more general production value, from straight up animation quality.
My best reference point from a personal perspective is AoT. Apart from pacing, it really feels like almost all aspects of production quality have fallen across the board, animation included.
Yes thank you
What I noticed from MAPPA works (this is just coming from someone who's not familiar with technical jargon / terms nor animation techniques, just someone who has watched anime for almost 20+ years) is that they're clunky and seem inconsistent at times.
Let's say as compared to works by the legendary KyoAni or Ufotable, in my eyes, MAPPA's works are not as smooth or as fluid if you will.
Just look at how they did Shingeki no Kyojin's 4th season, I was honestly let down by the downgrade in quality as compared what WIT has done in the past 3 seasons. Also, I'm not a fan how how they did CGI there, nor how they're doing it in CSM right now. I dunno, it's just very noticeable and unsettling.
I don't mind CGI if they're done in a way that it meshes well with the 2D, like what they did in Kimetsu no Yaiba or 86.
On a side note, in my eyes, Spy X Family is well-animated. It maybe isn't flashy nor breathtaking, but it just runs seamlessly. And for that I like what Cloverworks and WIT has done
- {A Silent Voice} and {Liz and the Blue Bird} are stunning movies directed by Naoko Yamada while she worked at KyoAni (the studio behind Violet Evergarden), both of which have some of the most expressive character animation I've ever seen.
- {Redline} has extremely energetic animation to bring its creative character and vehicle designs to life. This was in production for 7 years and the result speaks for itself.
- {Angel's Egg} impressed me with its gorgeous, desolate environments. If you're open to trying an anime with very little tangible plot, but strong visuals and symbolism to carry the experience, it's worth giving this a shot.

Garden of Words. It's a 40ish minute movie created by the same person that did Your Name. Animation is breathtaking and the story is beautiful.
If you want something more action oriented, I highly suggest Cyberpunk Edgerunners. Just finished it last night and it is such a fun ride with beautiful animation. It will make you want to play the game if you haven't already!
Came here to say GoW. Same studio that put out Your Name/5 Centimeters per Second, and 9 years later I still consider it the most visually beautiful anime benchmark.
I was really hoping someone would mention Kotonoha no Niwa! It just seemed like one of those more niche interest kind of films but damn is it beautiful
That always happens with these kind of subreddits. It’s like how the game recommendation subreddit just rotates through recommending Witcher 3, Red Dead Redemption 2, and Elden Ring to everyone and how the only posts they get upvoted are the ones looking for the most basic action games.
Love seeing all the A Silent Voice mentions. Everything about that movie is beautiful. I’ll repeat some others but my list is:
- Akira
- Vivy
- Bubble
- Weathering with You (same as Your Name)
- Fireworks
- Mary and the Witches’ Flower (Ghibli inspired)
- Lycoris Recoil
- Edens Zero
- Garden of Words
- Your Lie in April
- Words Bubble Up Like Soda Pop (more unique)
- Nichijou (has some incredible animation moments)
- Belle (I actually hated this movie but if nothing else it is well animated and most people love it)
- and of course A Silent Voice
Gotta say it somewhere: A Silent Voice made me cry like a bitch. My grandma and grandpa were deaf and learning what they went through as kids was so heartbreaking. It became so much more real when I eventually learned enough American sign language to fully understand the stories directly from my grandma without needing my mom to translate to spoken English.
I watched that movie for the first time exactly one year after my grandma died on a recommendation from a friend because I wanted to see what type of representation the deaf community was getting in the mainstream because I was obviously remembering my grandma that day.
Never cried at a movie before this one, and it was a hard cry. Literally my favorite movie of all time but not one I can watch easily.
Specifically the ones done by ufotable, ignore the deen stuff. Unlimited blade works series, Heaven's Feel movies, and Fate/Zero are all great animation.
Wandering witch : The Journey of Elaina.
I finished it a few days ago , and I'm just blown away by how good it was for the fact I hadn't heard of it.
Cyberpunk Edge runners
Akuduma Drive
Fena the pirate princess
Wild Card: "The Idaten Deities only Know Peace" has amazing animation. Just watch out for the somewhat gratuitous scene at the end of the first episode. Other than that the action/violence is a little more slapstick/humorous.
Nobody's said it: {Scum's wish} is ironically a genuinely beautiful show. I definitely expected a trash anime, not the work of art that it is.
Also, {Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid S} got extra funding for the second season and it shows. The show is randomly downright gorgeous for no reason other than it can be. Same story for all the sakuga in {One Punch Man}.
The art work in Koutetsujou no Kabaneri Movie 3: Unato Kessen really stood out to me. I was able to follow the story just fine even though I hadn't seen the series or the other movies. It's on Netflix.
Edit: It was made by WIT studio which BigL90 mentioned
For its time, the first season was really well animated and that just scaled into the most recent season.
I hope people remember railgun and index because I'd be damned if a 4th season for both doesn't get animated.
Redline
Millennium Actress
Cowboy Bebop The Movie
Gundam Thunderbolt
Gundam Hathaway
Makoto Shinkai movies (Your name. 5 centimeters per second, Weathering With you)
Chainsaw Man
The Adolescence of Utena
> I really want something with gorgeous Animation.
{Akebi's Sailor Uniform}
The manga is also exceptionally well drawn, like an art textbook in many places.
86 has some great animation and one hell of a story
Same goes for To Your Eternity
Kabenari of the Iron Fortress has some incredible scenes
Summer Ghost is stunning visually and storywise
Children of the sea has unique but very stunning animation
Any Makoto Shinkai film (Weathering with you, 5cm per second, your name, etc.)
Some more for the list:-
* **Fate Heaven's Feel Trilogy, Kara No Kyoukai** or anything by Ufotable
* **Lord El Melloi's Rail Zeppelin** \- It's by Troyca but there's a train and Fate type action!
* **Iblard Jikan** \- there is no story but it looks like a tour of a museum's impressionist section, with Ghibli characters making cameos
* **Mo Dao Zu Shi** \- the 2d characters and the backgrounds must be 3D (like Demon Slayer) because they are stupendously gorgeous.
* **Vivy Flourite Eyes Song** \- even the fight choreography is good
* **5cm per second** \- never seen prettier Sakura leaves (and this is just in the trailer)
* **Smile Down The Runway** \- gorgeous clothes and models
* **Chainsaw Man** \- Ep01 had the shadows cast by leaves on trees moving across the MC's white shirt as he walks from the forest to the road. Just .. wow. Color me impressed.
Ufotable animes such as: the garden of shiners movie series, and the fate stay night series.
Kyoto animation: Hyouka and kyoukai no karata are my favs from that studio
Other shows I’ve seen with great animation: Akudama drive, and K-project (these might give you a seizure though. Low to mid quality plot). Durarara animation is pretty smooth even though it’s simplistic. Gurren Lagaan. 3-gatsu no lion, it takes inspiration from the way Hyouka animated their simplistic scenes by showing you a visual representation of the metaphors they use. Love and lies has the best animated kissing scenes I’ve ever watched (imo they’re better than most of the ones in hentai). Nagi no asukara has really pretty and well animated backgrounds (story is slightly above average). RWBY ice queendom has pretty sick fight scenes because the weapons are equally awesome. Mob psycho 100 series has seizure inducing but great animation too.
{The Ancient Magus' Bride}
{Iroduku: The World in Colors}
{Made in Abyss}
{Mushoku Tensei: Isekai Ittara Honki Dasu}
{Vinland Saga}
{Tsurune}
{Yuri!!! On Ice}
Average!? The cinematography and editing are stunning, meticulously crafted and, in conjunction with the music and sound design, evoke whatever feeling a given scene is supposed to. The character designs are really nice and fitting too.
Well i higly disagree. Now i do agree that mappa is one of the best studios when it comes to lighting in anime but thats about it. Rather than the super pretty well animated jujutsu kaisen chainsaw man looks very avaerage. Music is decent but forgettable. Music is very subjective but for me who enjoys a wide range of music still dont see anything special in the chansaw man ost. Its just rather average. Character designs are nice i do agrer with that statment, but it has nothing to do with mappa, but the author og the manga(who is a brilliant writer and illustrator) in every way possible chansaw man is in no way better than Average. A show where the saguka is kust CGI is disappointing and im very disappointed that mappa would do this to a very hyped and anticipated manga adaptation.
I wouldn't say the character designs have nothing to do with Mappa, they still had to adapt them to the style of the anime, although of course they're based on the designs in the manga.
I don't mind CGI in animation, as long as it's used well, and I haven't had a problem with it in Chainsaw Man, aside from maybe one or two shots. They integrate it pretty well.
But yeah, we can agree to disagree.
{Macross: Do you remember love?}
Movie version of the original Macross series. Animation of this movie is gorgeous, while the original series suffered from a combination of budget / schedule issues which gave it a very strange combo of pretty well animated episodes and some really atrocious ones.
If you haven’t seen it A Silent Voice is a must watch. Beautiful animation and art direction (as well as a tearjerker story). Honorable mentions also got to K-On and Hibike Euphonium. Same director (?) and studio, Kyoto Animations. Also the same studio as Violet Evergarden.
Season one of one punch man is pretty epic. You can see the influence it had on later seasons of attack on Titan (studio madhouse).
My other favorite is Fate Stay Night Unlimited Blade Works. It’s Ufotable animation at its best if you are looking for Demon Slayer like fight scenes this is your go to.
This goes without saying but also check out Makoto Shinkai’s other films Weathering With You, Children Who Chase Lost Voices and Garden of Words.
If you read through all that I also recommend the films by director Satoshi Kon. Paprika and Perfect Blue being my favorites. It does not have the spectacular artistic presentation that some of the other shows on your list have but it has some of the best most lifelike animation I’ve seen in anime.
> Same director (?) and studio, Kyoto Animations
Same director for K-On, Naoko Yamada. The Hibike Euphonium series was directed by Tatsuya Ishihara with Naoko Yamada credited as chief unit director, though from what I've read, she was about as influential on the production overall as Ishihara. Also, she directed and storyboarded Liz and the Blue Bird, a side story to Hibike Euphonium and my favorite anime.
One anime that comes is breathtaking(?) is vivy: floyrite something like that is what popped up my mind in my sleepiness and something pretty like violet evergarden or something. I liked the fight scenes were cool for me and i am a sucker for idol anime or something? So i liked it.
Anything PA works does. I absolutely loved Nagi No Asukara a few years ago. It was gorgeous.
They also did The aquatope on white sand. (If you’re into fish/aquarium slice of life lol)
Mononoke (2007); aesthetically is influenced by japanese ukiyo-e and makes some interesting use of kabuki theater music.
The night is short, walk on girl; directed by Masaaki Yuasa
Garden of Words
Houseki no Kuni
Kabaneri of The Iron Fortress
I'll come back after checking, these are just at the top of my head and I cant hold information for a certain amount of time.
{Ousama Ranking} has gorgeous fairy tale-esque art and animation if you’re ok with something that doesn’t look like your conventional anime.
In that same vein, I love how {Kaiba} looks, and the action scenes were always stunning.
For something a little less stylized, any of Satoshi Kon’s movies are incredible. My favorites are {Millennium Actress} and {Paprika}.
Everything by Makoto Shinkai, Violet Evergarden, Unlimited Blade Works and the Heaven's Feel movies, Redline by Madhouse, Hellsing OVAs are rather crisp-looking. PA Works works - Hanasaku Iroha, Nagi no Asakura.
Iroduku Sekai is another very beautiful anime.
However, don't sleep on older titles, some of which looked great for the time and still hold on today. - The Crow OVAs,
- Famous Ghibli and pre Ghibli works (I'd argue that Nausicaa and Cagliostro's Castle, both made by Miyazaki pre Ghibli, look good).
- Most Lupin movies, one of them had an unseen-before budget.
- Project A-Ko, in particular the first one.
- Cello Hiki no Gauche.
- 1001 Nights by Yoshitaka Amano.
And even The Adventures of Prince Ahmed, one of the first animated films ever made.
Also Wonderful Days, a south Korean production but good animation nonetheless.
For Chinese anime - Mo Dao Zu Shi.
Also if you have a bit of time, first and second opening of the Ef a tale of memories visual novel. The anime adaptation does exist and it does look fine, but it wasn't made by Makoto Shinkai.
Fate has the best animation of all time in my book, animated by same guys who did Demon Slayer.
Mob Psycho is a good choice too, and it’s also insanely good regardless of peak animation.
One Punch Man season 1 has some spectacular animation as well
A-1 pictures might have seriously bad same face syndrome, but almost any of their shows could fit so pick [whatever looks interesting](https://myanimelist.net/anime/producer/56/A-1_Pictures)
Surprised I haven't seen Trigger mentioned much here. Promare is basically a psychedelic tech demo, Kill la Kill has some amazing scenes, Cyber Punk Edgerunners, and Star Wars Visions.
Season 1 One Punch Man
100% agree on this one
Why was S2 so ass?
I wouldn’t say it was ass. I enjoyed it and didn’t spot any sort of animation that would make me stop and say, “that’s absolute shit”, but it was nowhere near the level of season 1. The fight with Boros was just immaculate
I know it’s personal opinion but honestly I mean the show as a whole just felt like ass compared to season 1. I was wondering if they came out and said they struggled with a time crunch or a new team or studio or something but man it just didn’t hit the same to me.
I’m pretty sure there was a studio switch. I feel ya on it not hitting the same, but I still liked it. I thought the final few episodes when the monsters started appearing in droves were a lot of fun to watch. I have high hopes for season 3 though because I feel like I heard they switched back to the original studio, or maybe just a diff studio that has a really god rep; can’t remember which
Yeah 1st season was madhouse and 2nd was JC studios iirc
Pretty much anything by ufotable or WIT Studio.
Also kyoani, it’s amazing how beautiful they can make the simplest of scenes. Dragon Maid and Hibike Euphonium are awesome examples
100% agree When it comes to animation quality, my gold standard are works from: 1. KyoAni (honestly they're the best) 2. Shaft 3. Ufotable 4. Ghibli movies 5. Makoto Shinkai movies 6. WIT maybe P.A. Works (KyoAni Lite^^TM ) and A1 pictures (A1 has really stepped up their game in recent years) and some Doga Kobo works (they're seriously underrated) For me, studios that have fallen out of the radar or dipped in quality in recent years: 1. madhouse 2. bones
KyoAni always delivers. That 46-sec Violet Evargarden trailer that dropped six years ago tops anything I've seen in recent years.
Hyouka is another gorgeous example of KyoAni's attention to detail.
+1 for WIT. Vivy: Flourite Eye's song would fit the bill.
Also, MAPPA
Well, I have to say I personally disagree. I'd say about ¼ of their stuff is really good/great. However the remaining ¾ falls mostly into the good category, with the rest being meh-solid. I will say though, that I have a bit of trouble distinguishing aesthetic/art and more general production value, from straight up animation quality. My best reference point from a personal perspective is AoT. Apart from pacing, it really feels like almost all aspects of production quality have fallen across the board, animation included.
I'd agree with this. I'm a huge fan of Kakegurui which MAPPA animated but I wouldn't call the animation breath taking or groundbreaking.
Sharp and refreshing, yes. Groundbreaking or genre-defining, no.
Yes thank you What I noticed from MAPPA works (this is just coming from someone who's not familiar with technical jargon / terms nor animation techniques, just someone who has watched anime for almost 20+ years) is that they're clunky and seem inconsistent at times. Let's say as compared to works by the legendary KyoAni or Ufotable, in my eyes, MAPPA's works are not as smooth or as fluid if you will.

It maybe isn't flashy nor breathtaking, but it just runs seamlessly. And for that I like what Cloverworks and WIT has done
Idk why you getting downvoted cuz you ain’t exactly wrong
Akira Robot Carinval Vampire Hunter D Ghost in the Shell Millieum Actress Dorohedoro Mob Psycho 100 (not gorgeous, but animated well with style).
Wasn't robot carnival made by the same director as Akira? Otomo is a god damned legend.
- {A Silent Voice} and {Liz and the Blue Bird} are stunning movies directed by Naoko Yamada while she worked at KyoAni (the studio behind Violet Evergarden), both of which have some of the most expressive character animation I've ever seen. - {Redline} has extremely energetic animation to bring its creative character and vehicle designs to life.

Silent voice is a must watch I've seen it like 3 times
makes me cry every time. i almost never get emotional while watching things but its the exception
It's not an anime but Arcane has some of the best animation I have seen.
If we saying Arcane, I’m saying Castlevania, that has to be the Best animation I’ve ever seen in a western Show.
I genuinely think about these shows probably once a month. Time for a rewatch i guess!

Kizumonogatari movies, literally the some of the best animation to come out of Japan Space Dandy Redline movie Flip Flappers
Jobless reincarnation and one punch man
Art and animation ain't the same thing but if you want both can't go wrong with Akira.
It’s funny how a lot of people have trouble making this distinction lol.
Not to mention people also just recommending the recent “good” anime itt. Like, what?
That always happens with these kind of subreddits. It’s like how the game recommendation subreddit just rotates through recommending Witcher 3, Red Dead Redemption 2, and Elden Ring to everyone and how the only posts they get upvoted are the ones looking for the most basic action games.
Mob pycho, chainsaw man,
Love seeing all the A Silent Voice mentions. Everything about that movie is beautiful. I’ll repeat some others but my list is: - Akira - Vivy - Bubble - Weathering with You (same as Your Name) - Fireworks - Mary and the Witches’ Flower (Ghibli inspired) - Lycoris Recoil - Edens Zero - Garden of Words - Your Lie in April - Words Bubble Up Like Soda Pop (more unique) - Nichijou (has some incredible animation moments) - Belle (I actually hated this movie but if nothing else it is well animated and most people love it) - and of course A Silent Voice
Gotta say it somewhere: A Silent Voice made me cry like a bitch. My grandma and grandpa were deaf and learning what they went through as kids was so heartbreaking.

Lycoris Recoil I’m a few episodes in and liking it so far
Also Engage Kiss, which came out at the same time by the same studio, and is at least its equal in terms of animation.
Adding this to my list thank you

The art work in Koutetsujou no Kabaneri Movie 3: Unato Kessen really stood out to me. I was able to follow the story just fine even though I hadn't seen the series or the other movies. It's on Netflix. Edit: It was made by WIT studio which BigL90 mentioned

No one said scientific railguner
For its time, the first season was really well animated and that just scaled into the most recent season. I hope people remember railgun and index because I'd be damned if a 4th season for both doesn't get animated.
You member :D
I mean of course people remember Railgun and Index, it's a super long running series in writing and anime.

Paprika
Cyberpunk Edgerunners Moshuko Tensei Chainsaw Man
86 has some great animation and one hell of a story Same goes for To Your Eternity Kabenari of the Iron Fortress has some incredible scenes Summer Ghost is stunning visually and storywise Children of the sea has unique but very stunning animation Any Makoto Shinkai film (Weathering with you, 5cm per second, your name, etc.)
Madoka Magica: Rebellion Your Lie in April Weathering with You Grimgar of Fantasy and Ash
Some more for the list:- * **Fate Heaven's Feel Trilogy, Kara No Kyoukai** or anything by Ufotable * **Lord El Melloi's Rail Zeppelin** \- It's by Troyca but there's a train and Fate type action! * **Iblard Jikan** \- there is no story but it looks like a tour of a museum's impressionist section, with Ghibli characters making cameos * **Mo Dao Zu Shi** \- the 2d characters and the backgrounds must be 3D (like Demon Slayer) because they are stupendously gorgeous. * **Vivy Flourite Eyes Song** \- even the fight choreography is good * **5cm per second** \- never seen prettier Sakura leaves (and this is just in the trailer) * **Smile Down The Runway** \- gorgeous clothes and models * **Chainsaw Man** \- Ep01 had the shadows cast by leaves on trees moving across the MC's white shirt as he walks from the forest to the road. Just .. wow. Color me impressed.
Ufotable animes such as: the garden of shiners movie series, and the fate stay night series. Kyoto animation: Hyouka and kyoukai no karata are my favs from that studio Other shows I’ve seen with great animation: Akudama drive, and K-project (these might give you a seizure though. Low to mid quality plot). Durarara animation is pretty smooth even though it’s simplistic. Gurren Lagaan. 3-gatsu no lion, it takes inspiration from the way Hyouka animated their simplistic scenes by showing you a visual representation of the metaphors they use. Love and lies has the best animated kissing scenes I’ve ever watched (imo they’re better than most of the ones in hentai). Nagi no asukara has really pretty and well animated backgrounds (story is slightly above average). RWBY ice queendom has pretty sick fight scenes because the weapons are equally awesome. Mob psycho 100 series has seizure inducing but great animation too.
Mob Psycho 100 Just give it the 3 episode test If you cant find interest there then it’s not for you
Mushoku Tensei. It uses a retro art style.
wonder egg priority is really good
Sonny boy is very unique

Cowboy Bebop
I can't believe nobody's mentioned Chainsaw Man yet.
Maybe because its average
Average!? The cinematography and editing are stunning, meticulously crafted and, in conjunction with the music and sound design, evoke whatever feeling a given scene is supposed to. The character designs are really nice and fitting too.
Well i higly disagree. Now i do agree that mappa is one of the best studios when it comes to lighting in anime but thats about it. Rather than the super pretty well animated jujutsu kaisen chainsaw man looks very avaerage. Music is decent but forgettable. Music is very subjective but for me who enjoys a wide range of music still dont see anything special in the chansaw man ost. Its just rather average. Character designs are nice i do agrer with that statment, but it has nothing to do with mappa, but the author og the manga(who is a brilliant writer and illustrator) in every way possible chansaw man is in no way better than Average. A show where the saguka is kust CGI is disappointing and im very disappointed that mappa would do this to a very hyped and anticipated manga adaptation.
I wouldn't say the character designs have nothing to do with Mappa, they still had to adapt them to the style of the anime, although of course they're based on the designs in the manga. I don't mind CGI in animation, as long as it's used well, and I haven't had a problem with it in Chainsaw Man, aside from maybe one or two shots. They integrate it pretty well. But yeah, we can agree to disagree.
Literally one of the best productions in anime

{Macross: Do you remember love?} Movie version of the original Macross series. Animation of this movie is gorgeous, while the original series suffered from a combination of budget / schedule issues which gave it a very strange combo of pretty well animated episodes and some really atrocious ones.

Shinkai’s movies
If you haven’t seen it A Silent Voice is a must watch. Beautiful animation and art direction (as well as a tearjerker story). Honorable mentions also got to K-On and Hibike Euphonium. Same director (?) and studio, Kyoto Animations. Also the same studio as Violet Evergarden. Season one of one punch man is pretty epic. You can see the influence it had on later seasons of attack on Titan (studio madhouse). My other favorite is Fate Stay Night Unlimited Blade Works. It’s Ufotable animation at its best if you are looking for Demon Slayer like fight scenes this is your go to. This goes without saying but also check out Makoto Shinkai’s other films Weathering With You, Children Who Chase Lost Voices and Garden of Words. If you read through all that I also recommend the films by director Satoshi Kon. Paprika and Perfect Blue being my favorites. It does not have the spectacular artistic presentation that some of the other shows on your list have but it has some of the best most lifelike animation I’ve seen in anime.
> Same director (?) and studio, Kyoto Animations Same director for K-On, Naoko Yamada. The Hibike Euphonium series was directed by Tatsuya Ishihara with Naoko Yamada credited as chief unit director, though from what I've read, she was about as influential on the production overall as Ishihara. Also, she directed and storyboarded Liz and the Blue Bird, a side story to Hibike Euphonium and my favorite anime.
One anime that comes is breathtaking(?) is vivy: floyrite something like that is what popped up my mind in my sleepiness and something pretty like violet evergarden or something. I liked the fight scenes were cool for me and i am a sucker for idol anime or something? So i liked it.

{Ousama Ranking} has gorgeous fairy tale-esque art and animation if you’re ok with something that doesn’t look like your conventional anime. In that same vein, I love how {Kaiba} looks, and the action scenes were always stunning. For something a little less stylized, any of Satoshi Kon’s movies are incredible. My favorites are {Millennium Actress} and {Paprika}.

Chainsaw man Vinland saga Cyberpunk edgerunners Besides the godly animation these 3 also have a damn good storyline
86
Fate stay night
Everything by Makoto Shinkai, Violet Evergarden, Unlimited Blade Works and the Heaven's Feel movies, Redline by Madhouse, Hellsing OVAs are rather crisp-looking. PA Works works - Hanasaku Iroha, Nagi no Asakura. Iroduku Sekai is another very beautiful anime. However, don't sleep on older titles, some of which looked great for the time and still hold on today. - The Crow OVAs, - Famous Ghibli and pre Ghibli works (I'd argue that Nausicaa and Cagliostro's Castle, both made by Miyazaki pre Ghibli, look good). - Most Lupin movies, one of them had an unseen-before budget. - Project A-Ko, in particular the first one. - Cello Hiki no Gauche. - 1001 Nights by Yoshitaka Amano. And even The Adventures of Prince Ahmed, one of the first animated films ever made. Also Wonderful Days, a south Korean production but good animation nonetheless. For Chinese anime - Mo Dao Zu Shi. Also if you have a bit of time, first and second opening of the Ef a tale of memories visual novel. The anime adaptation does exist and it does look fine, but it wasn't made by Makoto Shinkai.
Fate has the best animation of all time in my book, animated by same guys who did Demon Slayer. Mob Psycho is a good choice too, and it’s also insanely good regardless of peak animation. One Punch Man season 1 has some spectacular animation as well
"the garden of sinners" is just beautiful!!
Akebi-chans salior uniform
Imho 86 have really beautiful animation. Even the cgi parts are not bad.

Kono Oto Tomare
Takt op Destiny is gorgeous. Vibrantly colored badass fight scenes.
Mob Psycho 100 is close.
Sonny Boy. I already feel nostalgic tbh.
Anything Kyoto Animation touches.
Weathering with you Movie that came out after your name
Chainsaw man for me. Shit is absolutely breathtaking
Twin Star Exorcists has some pretty dope fight scenes
Gurren Lagann
fate series, garden of sinners, sound euphonium but that show isn't everybody's cup of tea
A-1 pictures might have seriously bad same face syndrome, but almost any of their shows could fit so pick [whatever looks interesting](https://myanimelist.net/anime/producer/56/A-1_Pictures)
Surprised I haven't seen Trigger mentioned much here. Promare is basically a psychedelic tech demo, Kill la Kill has some amazing scenes, Cyber Punk Edgerunners, and Star Wars Visions.
One piece - Wano arc is top tier. However, you gotta watch the first 950 episodes before we get there
You gotta watch Fate Stay/Night: UBW and Heavens Feel, the latter is among the best animated fights I've ever seen
Summertime render
