Both are surreal cgi shows depicting fantasy bleeding into reality, the struggle to find one's self amidst peers, expectations and delusions, as well as the fantastical way in which we both carve our own path and come to rely on others to surpass our past selves. Replace technology with magic, and one series could even work as a sequel to the other. It may even work in both ways.

What changes will oncoming technological advances bring on a societal and individual level? These anime from the same time period(one pre, another post turn of the millenium) pitched the question, we have the answer. And the predictions they've made pretty much hit the mark. Although wildly different in tone and structure, both made "accurate"(loosely speaking as obviously there were exaggerations for the sake of storytelling) but dystopic guesses both in technicality and abstract concepts. Very good for taking a peek into early 00s visionary ideas on future popular technology.

Both are badly 'animated' but cover the existentialism of machines and love.
