12. Inu-Oh
Director Masaaki Yuasa returned to film for the first time in three years, and Inu-Oh showed that he hasn’t lost a step. Utterly vibrant from start to end and blessed with gorgeous musical vibes, Inu-Oh feels as big and showy as any live-action music biopic within the last decade, but with a much more personal touch. It’s an animated film unlike anything else this year, and an utter blast.
