If you loved Gunbuster: The Movie, try Revival of Evangelion
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Hideaki Anno, Shoichi Masuo, and they both carry the foreign gem mood tag, and they sit in Action / Animation / Drama / Science Fiction territory. If that's the register that drew you to Gunbuster: The Movie, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Revival of Evangelion is
You watch the last days of humanity collide with teenage nerves in a Tokyo under siege. Then events spiral toward annihilation. A studio note: the film only feels complete once you’ve faced the abyss between despair and purpose.
