An excellent exercise in storytelling, pacing and character exposition accompanied by a consistently wonderful score. I honestly did not expect a 90s cartoon aimed for a (presumedly) younger audience to have such mature themes (death, love, duty, family), handled in such a mature way in not giving the audience any mental crutches. A 90s cartoon! On first watch, this holds up to par for me with any other great movies out there, including Nolan's Batman trilogy. There, I said it.

9/10, although I'm not quite sure what the missing 1 is for.
