Following Wolf Children in 2012, Summer Wars in 2009, and The Girl Who Leapt Through Time in in 2006, Mirai is Hosoda's fourth work to win the Best Animated Feature Film award at the festival.

There is a certain... beastly omission from this list. Is there a general consensus that his 2015 work is the also-ran of his filmography?

They probably thought Boy and the Beast was too flawed to be shown. It's the least liked of his works overall, so maybe they wanted to focus on the genuinely good movies he's made.
