Look, I love anime, but I think you're taking fanboyism a bit too far. Akira is not a better movie than Rain Man. Ghost in the Shell is not a better movie than Braveheart. However, I think that Princess Mononoke is an absolute masterpiece, and far exceeds Spirited Away. Maybe, just maybe, it deserved to win Best Picture.
