The world of Japanese animation is vast and endearing, full of countless anime films that are rarely known even in Japan, let alone in the Western world.

So, if you are tired of watching the same Hayao Miyazaki movies over and over again, we have 10 projects to scratch that same fantasy anime itch for you!

Let's get one thing straight – Miyazaki is a true genius, and "Spirited Away" is one of his most accomplished works, easily one of the best anime movies ever made.

That said, sometimes you need to check out a little more obscure parts of the anime world, especially if you want to get to know Japanese culture better. Of course, not all of the anime mentioned above will even remind you of Miyazaki's work, but rest assured that each and every one of them will shock and delight you.

Dark and uplifting, bloody and cozy, baffling and accessible, the aforementioned anime have something for every fan of the genre, and we urge you to check out at least some of them.

While Miyazaki may be one of the most famous anime creators in the world, Japanese culture doesn't end with him.
