>>99034351It's pretty okay.
It certainly didn't deserve the Oscar nomination, though.

And you can add In This Corner of the World and Mary and the Witch's Flower to those nominations.
Hell, even Leap!, which didn't try and compete for a nomination, deserved a nomination much more.
The reason why it didn't compete for a nomination was because Harvey Weinstein doesn't care about animated films.
I really loved Leap!.
And also, Hosoda and The Peanuts Movie didn't get a nomination in favor of some literally who Polish film because Funimation doesn't know how to do Oscar-qualifying runs back in 2015, and as for The Peanuts Movie, I don't know why it didn't get a nomination.
Also, Shark Tale got nominated instead of The Polar Express or The SpongeBob Movie back in 2004.
Back in 2001, they gave the win to Shrek, while that and Jimmy Neutron got nominated instead of Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within and Waking Life.
And in 2010, they only had three nominations instead of the usual 5 just so Tangled and Summer Wars won't get nominations.
Same thing happened in 2007, when they only had three nominations so Meet the Robinsons and Evangelion won't get nominated.
2011, they nominated Puss in Boots instead of either The Adventures of Tintin, Wrinkles, or Winnie-the-Pooh.
