Definitely my favorite (though my exposure to Anime is limited.)
I watched Akira as my intro to the genre, as it was touted as the best.
I'm afraid I did not understand it. Why did he grow into a monster? (And why did it take so much screen time for the actual transformation?)
I find the Studio Ghibli stuff charming, and much is quality anime, but I find the subject matter generally less appealing than the more sci-fi fare.
For example, I'd much rather watch Appleseed than Howl's Moving Castle, and Patlabor than Ponyo.
Those choices may not be the better quality but I find them more enjoyable.
