Momotaro: Sacred Sailors

Momotaro: Sacred Sailors or also known as Momotaro's Divine Sea Warriors (Japanese: 桃太郎 海の神兵; Momotarô: Umi no shinpei), is the 1945 propaganda anime of Japanese Empire which was premiered at the final stage of World War II. It's the first feature-length anime. Considering this fact as well as the information, that the first anime TV-series was made almost two decades later, Momotaro: Sacred Sailors is the oldest anime documented on IMFDB. 
Note: The original movie tape is rather bad preservation, so, the restored version was used to create screenshots. However, the restoration was made by non-Japanese crew, so, some screenshots became more cartoonish, rather than it was at the original version.
