"In This Corner of the World" is one of the most beautiful anime I have ever seen. It is a story that will touch the heart of the viewer, a story that tells what seems a simple story, but that has layers and more layers in it, and that will stay with you for a long time after the end credits roll.

Netflix announced on Monday that Sunao Katabuchi and MAPPA 's In This Corner of the World film will be available on Netflix in Japan, the United States, Canada, and "some countries and territories" beginning on March 15.

Full Length Movies. (45 minutes+) Movie series included but only the first one. Movies that are attached to anime series aren't included but if they came first they are. Made a note of ones that I think are stand out movies that all anime fans should watch on some need to finish that part still
