Best looking animes

So I was wondering, what do you guys think are the most visually beautiful animes out there?

Yesterday, I saw Makoto Shinkai's 5 Centimeters Per Second. That film reminded me of how drop-dead gorgeous an anime can be. Seriously, this movie's imagery has a breathtaking level so high that it will leave your lungs and eyes shriveled and dry (The story alone will leave you in a similar state). Here's a preview.

After that, I checked out Shinkai's legendary masterpiece OVA: Voices from a Distant Star. Why is it legendary? It's 25 minutes of beauty - planned, drawn, colored, written and animated pretty much single-handedly by Shinkai on his Mac. I am in slack-jawed awe.

These were the two best looking animes i've seen since Steamboy and World Record.
