Given you like the Miyazake movies so much, you really should give Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind (https://www.netflix.com/gb/title/70019062) a watch.

Avoid the American "Warriors of the Wind" because it is terrible, for reasons similar to what you wrote about Akira.

Glad to see Nausicaä mentioned. While I find it really hard to rate Miyazaki movies (usually the most recent rewatch becomes my favorite), the deep echoing philosophy of Nausicaä and Princess Mononoke is definitely underrated.

I love how one of the comments talks about Roger Ebert calling the lamp post a gift. The entirety of Studio Ghibli is a gift. The empowering characters and almost eternal, non-preachy, storylines are truly some of the greatest epics in modern times.

And, of course, Ohmu are fricking rad as hell.
