the movie for sure and then the 6 volume manga if you’re hooked after that. not only is the animation beautiful, but it’s also hugely influential to sci fi, anime, and film in general.
the story deals with themes of the abuse of power, friendship, loyalty, militarism, and government corruption. it’s a movie that is rewarding upon rewatches as more details become clear. honestly the english dub is great so sub or dub is just a matter of preference for this one imo.
