Steamboy
2005
In this animated tale that's as riveting as it is retro, genius teen inventor Ray Steam receives a strange spherical device containing a mind-boggling new form of energy that can power a whole country. Soon, two ominous gents turn up looking to get their hands on the gadget; the next thing you know, Ray is caught in a battle between the Yanks and the Brits, who'll do anything to obtain the priceless orb.

Good but in an unexpected way. I saw it because it was "from the creator of Akira", but it was really a different sort of anime entirely, with a lighter tone.
