I've done yet another try: quite grainy film source encoded at 35Mbit (38Mbit max), 2 pass BD pressets, with very slow first pass. It was done at about 5fps (on 12 core machine with HT at 99% of all cores) and does look very good, except exactly the same problem as mp3dom described.
Whole frame will look very good, but it has places where details gets flatten and changed into blocks- there is really no reason for this at 35Mbs. There is also still big gap in quality between B and rest of frames (I assume this can be tweaked). This was not anime, but grainy film source.
