If you like Nihon no Mukashi Banashi you might like Kobu-tori, a 10 minute short movie from 1929 about villager with a lump and group of tengu, which is one of the folktales in Mukashi Banashi, if you like folktales you might want to check this old version too.

Both are one of the first anime ever created that still exist today, and if you liked one of them you will certainly like another. Kobu-tori is a folktale, while Komori has special "old cartoon" appeal while telling fable like story with animals. Both are good for "expanding the horizons", bragging that you watched an anime made before they were "mainstream" and for casual enjoyment.

If you like really old Japanese animation (and you know, even if you don't) watch those two little movies and see how much have changed in the field of animation during last 85 years. Both Ugokie Kori no Tatehiki and Kobu-tori are about some supernatural events shown in a half-joking form. Both black and white.

For those who just want to expand their horizons with older anime.
