<p>Psychedelic definition: of or noting a mental state characterized by a profound sense of intensified sensory perception, sometimes accompanied by severe perceptual distortion and hallucinations and by extreme feelings of either euphoria or despair</p><p>This is a compilation of multiple lists gathered from reputable psychedelic sites and popular lists on reputable film sites. The films are ranked based on how many of the lists they appeared on (can be seen with the notes feature). This list features projects of all genres and lengths, anything considered psychedelic by one or many of the sources. A note on bias: many of these lists are older, and there is a general tendency for some of the higher ranking films to be older. I will continually work to consistently update and gather from new sources to mitigate this. Take note of when the sources were published, which I have put in parentheses if I got that information. Lists I gathered from are below, if you have any more suggestions, drop in the comments!

<p>I love animation. I even studied it for four years at university and came out with an honours degree on the subject. You can imagine then how disheartening it is the fact that the majority of westerners (generally) believe the following:</p><p>“Cartoons are for children”</p><p>This basically creates a catch-22. Western audiences think it because the animated shows and movies being advertised are, for the most part, targeted exclusively at children and families (Disney, Pixar, DreamWorks, Illumination). This leads western studios to become reluctant to make animated movies for anyone other than those audiences because they don't think they'll find a large enough audience. And, to be honest, they probably wouldn't, thanks to the aforementioned perception. My own brother even asks me every so often “Are you still watching cartoons?”.</p><p>Consider this; when was the last time you sat down in the cinema to watch a film and saw a trailer for an animated movie that wasn't family friendly, or made in Japan? I struggle to think of ANY time that happened. Animated movies just don't seem to be on the radar of most westerners / studios outside of Disney etc. </p><p>Aside #1 - I acknowledge we've had quite a few animated tv shows targeteding adults in recent years, but most of those seem to be witty short-form comedies with the same target audience - they sit in their own little niche. Plus Letterboxd is for movies.</p><p>Aside #2 - Anime is obviously a beast. But outside of Japan it's only popular in certain circles and still gets judged immensely. Partly because of the animated form, partly because of the tropes. I know more people who are aggressively not into anime, than are into anime. I see anime as a bit of an exception and it's own niche. </p><p>As far as I'm concerned, animation is imagination and creativity in its purest form. With animation, you could create literally ANY type of film or story - even the sky isn't the limit - and I look forward to the day we break the cycle on that perspective.</p><p>In the meantime, here are some examples of animated movies that treat the form more than something just targeted at children and families. Or, at least they do as far as I can tell... I haven’t seen them all yet! But I'm working my way through them. Possibly with the exception of Urotsukidoji because I’d like to walk away from this with my sanity and dignity intact thank you very much.</p><p>PS – Feel free to send me suggestions or recommendations.</p><p><br /><br /></p><p>____________________________________________<br />BONUS INFO BASED ON COMMENTS AND THIS LIST CATCHING FIRE:</p><p>► Please note that this list is very much vibe-based and from my own perspective. It's is not an exact science, and while they don't always have to be, I do lean towards films that are more off the beaten path, or lean into artistry and experimentation a bit more. You might argue that WALL-E or The Lion King might be more suited to this list than Song of the Sea for example, but in my vibe-check they wouldn't. Disney and Pixar won't show up much on here, as much as I love a lot of their movies.</p><p>► I don't want to dillute the list with too much of one thing, and this is why I haven't added *checks notes* almost every single anime movie ever made. If this was a list of all adult-oriented animated movies it would be 98% anime and I don't want that. I have plenty anime on here, but defintiely going for a balance - anime is it's own thing entirely.</p><p>► Quite a few of these films are perfectly fine to be watched by children, of course, but I don't think any of them are explicitly targeted at children.</p><p>► I've also had a few comments - including, weirdly, one extremely hateful one along the lines of "this list is bullshit, no one thinks animation is for children anymore, get a grip". And to that I say: "disagree, and your comment is getting deleted".</p><p>Fin.</p>

<p>Excluding films based on anime TV series and the DC Universe series, which are so prominent that they would almost overshadow everything else on this list.</p>
