This Japanese film from the past features scene design by the talented Hayao Miyazaki.
The animation is solid (the fight with the wolfs in this clip is a good example), but the backgrounds are lack-luster at times in comparison of later films that feature a looser watercolor style.
A fun movie to check out. NOTE: This is only the first part.

Wow, great stuff! Is this available on DVD? (I like how the demon at the end looks suspiciously like Batman).

I assume it is not available in the US, but someone should make it available.
I believe the video is posted by http://www.ghiblicon.blogspot.com/ which is a great Ghibli animation studios blog.
