Tenshi no Tamago

Both give off a similar feel-- eerie, otherworldly, surreal, and at least to me it makes me feel calm. Little dialogue and lots of symbolism 

The surreal and dark atmospheres are synonymous, as well as the fact that they both have very little dialog.  

Both have beautiful art and at times a similar feel. They are both set in heavily developed, atmospheric worlds. 

Very slow, dark, and heavily atmospheric anime with minimal dialogue. 

Both films are slow, sad, and surreal, with imagery painted in dark, soothing tones. 

Two surreal concepts, transport us into dark worlds that hide a relationship that develops over time. Everything started because an object that is appreciated by the protagonist (A drink in Cossete, An egg in Tenshi), which keeps within himself, his own hope to change what is their world. 

-Mysterious with unique artsyle and aesthetic animation -Have white hair girl as the main character. -They are searching for something and have no recollection of past 

Both rely heavily on symbolism (especially religious) and require you pay close attention to fully grasp what is actually going on. The journey through a wasteland of sorts is present in each. The art style is also, at times, quite similar. 

1001 Nights specializes in the surreal and will make you feel like you're tripping hard on acid during its short, but sweet 24 minute runtime. It featues three different animation styles: regular cell animation, sketch animation on paper, and these weird motion tween moments, and it all looks incredible. Tenshi no Tamago features a lot of dark, gothic architecture and symbolism. The movie has little to no dialogue and is very slow but still manages to draw you into its world with its amazing character design and beautiful background art. Oh, and the music is really freaking good. If you're an art maniac looking for something that's a bit more "out there" with its art direction, then both of these are a MUST watch! Oh, both are also made by the same character designer behind a lot of the Final Fantasy games: Yoshitaka Amano! read more 

Both are takes on the meaning of life and being human, and whether the roles of men and women in this life are different. Both movies do not give straightforward answers and ask the audience to puzzle out the complex symbolism. Whilst Kaijuu no Kodomo is set within a modern human society and goes into more progressive ideas around the roles, and Tenshi no Tamago explores it in a more traditional route within a dystopia, they are both about how humans relate to nature. 

Mamoru Oshii Films Female protagonist (Main character) Philological subjects and tones " At the end the main character also "goes into" its reflection and becomes a new, more mature being."-some person on reddit. 

these films are both hugely symbolic;They both require some good thinking afterward. They share an "epicness" (in their scale) about them that I don't want to spoil. I think they are nicely animated, and the color pallets are also oddly alike. 

both are trippy as hell stories with a dark artstyle a female lead and also lots of really nice to look at visuals as well too. 

both have very minimal casts, no real stories behind them and instead focus more on art work and world building of post-apocalyptic fantasy worlds. 

Angel's egg and robot carnival's "presence" not only have the same art style and music, but take place in in a world of technology. Both have odd girls with the same wavy hair even though one is a robot. The over all feeling of angel's egg is so close to that of robot carnival that it would almost fit with the other shorts. (besides the fact they aren't on earth and no robots that I know of.) 

If you enjoy surreal world and thought-provoking yet somewhat confusing plotline of La Maison, then you'll find a lot more of that in Angel's Egg. You can not only give your brain a 90-minute workout, but you can look at some nice eye candy as well.  

Same starkness of scene and incredible music in both. If Inaka Isha were Noh, Angel's Egg would be Kabuki produced by Yoshitaka Amano.  

These two anime share a strikingly similar atmosphere. Surreal, dark, otherworldly sci-fi. The settings are post-apocalyptic, lonely wastelands where the characters wander with little to no dialogue. But when the characters do speak, it's most likely an esoteric line that ties into a deeper overarching theme. Casshern Sins features inserts of streamlined fight sequences throughout, but otherwise, both anime's pacing are a contemplative slow burn, accompanied by gorgeous music and artwork. 

Angel's Egg is a lot more "deep" than Tortov Roddle, but both of them transport the viewer to a fantastic and surreal world. If you enjoyed the sights and sounds of Tortov Roddle, then you will love Angel's Egg for its artwork alone. 

Both are coated with the Mamoru Oshii pace, brimming with symbolism and allusions. 

Both are surreal works with an emphasis on water-the unmoving ocean in one and steadily rising rain in the other. 

They are both great experimental, inspirational films with lots of artistic purposes. Tenshi no Tamago may take some visual inspiration from Belladonna of Sadness. 

Overarching gothic style with a dark palette. Drops you in the middle of an ongoing story with a surreal bent. Moody and contemplative. 

Both have a dark atmosphere, animation at some points are similar but in most angel's egg is better. If you liked Vampire hunter D then you should like angel egg. if you liked angels egg you should at least give vampire hunter d a try. 

Both are filled with strongly symbolic and/or disturbing imagery. The difference is the art style. Utena is pure eye-candy, while Angel's Egg is like a mixture between the gothic and the surreal. 

the characters, atmosphere and color palette are very simillar. 

They depict hollow dreams, using similar symbolism. 

Existential themes set in an apocalyptic-like environment and atmosphere, as well in being a unique experience.  

Both shows are perfect examples of what avantgarde is. Experimental. Not for everyone. Slow, almost meditative. More visual than narrative. Nothing is explained. Strong symbolism and surrealism. Both are Mamoru Oshii's works. 

Made in 1987, two years from Angel's Egg, this is must be the birth of anime taking place of adulthood and religion and dark themes in general. It is action packed and has better animation while still retaining the same 1980s feeling that Tenshi no Tamago (Angels Egg) also has. If you go down the rabbit hole, next would be Akira 1988, Devilman 1990, Neon Genesis Evangelion 1995, then Berserk 1997 

- both are rather abstract - both have beautiful art style - similar main characters ( the girls)  

Slow paced and are both very comforting to watch with fitting soundtracks. 

If you like ambient sounds, little or almost no music, original story that let you a free space to think by yourself of the meaning of the series/movie, that makes you dream about fantasy then Tenshi no Tamago/Mushishi is perfect for you. Although they are VERY different on all points I thought that people that liked one kind would like the other. 

Early OVA (84 and 85) that surrounds the encounter of a boy and a girl and their strange interactions. Original feature with several musical scenes, some expressionist animation, and art direction by Shichiro Kobayashi. 

Both series are very visually beautiful, with a creepy, unsettling atmosphere that is constantly lingering throughout the whole work. Surrounded by mystery and horror, secrets and a visual atmosphere that seems to be rarely done, they're both amazing works that are very similar, and yet, fairly different in their own respective fields.  

Both are a jumble of themes with a very incohesive story. Both end with a strong warning for humanity in their own dark respective way. Both can be seen as incredibly pretentious and require open-mindedness. 

besides being two old animes well differentiated from the others, they are fables with a philosophical content, while Angel's Egg talks about religion, A Poet's History, talks about capitalism and exhausting work. 

These anime feature a great attention to detail to capture their respective gothic aesthetics and religious allusions. ‘Vampire Hunter D’ focuses more on horror with its vampire conflict whereas ‘Angel’s Egg’ is more bleak and surreal. 

Complex narratives and incredible visuals, directed by Mamoru Oshii and with background art by Shichiro Kobayashi. 

Wonder Egg Priority and Angel's Egg are two anime about a female main character who has a mysterious egg. Both anime look beautiful and are definitely worth checking out just from the presentation alone, but throughout watching either of them, you may find yourself constantly thinking "what on earth is happening". 

Both have the same art director Kobayashi Shichiro, the art quality, sequences, and angles are all very similar, however Angel's egg has a very dark monotone coloring, and Nobody's boy Remi is very colorful. They were both produced around the same time 70s/80s, so they have the old animation style of hand drawn backgrounds and sequences. Other then the animation, the two differ majorly on story and mood.  

A young girl must travel through a darker, fantastical landscape with the help of a male deuteragonist. Their bond is the central relationship, and thus, it is important to their respective plots. ‘Spirited Away’ features a heartfelt message and an interesting 'mirror world' with numerous memorable characters whereas ‘Angel’s Egg’ is more bleak and bittersweet in its tone with minimal dialogue between its two main characters. 

Very artsy and very unconventional anime both with extremely distinct visual styles, slow-cinema in anime form 

These two left me with similar feelings of pure awe as the credits rolled. They feature super detailed and interesting worlds filled with environmental storytelling. Lots of the backstory is up to interpretation, though Cocolors is much more straightforward. They both contain plenty of desolation and despair. 

-similar postapocaliptic ambient and atmosphere, angel's egg is more gothic though. -steampunkish/dieselpunkish machienery -both have outstanding landscape designes and animation 

In both, an earnest girl travels a dark and mysterious world accompanied by an older man. Both are very artsy projects. 

They both have surreal and deep, spiritual elements. Angel's Egg is very dark, while RahXephon is lighter. Both involve characters discovering themselves and the world around them. 

Both are great example of surrealistic anime. Truly an art-house in anime world. Tenshi no Tamago is much more darker though.  

The feel for the film, the music and even moments of the story itself feel similar to one another. They each deal with solitude and loss and finding something you have hope in.  

Bizarre dystopian sci-fi. Both contain minimal dialogue, featuring art by huge names in the anime industry. Angel's Egg is arguably bleaker than Neo-Tokyo, however, both are quite the trip.  

Both have characters that ask over and over who are you/who am I? Both have beautiful art with plots that leave the watcher feeling disquieted at their conclusions. 

Apart from some similarities in the plots that revolve around young girls in a dystopian future who are trying to hatch an egg (Tenshi no tamago) or to grow a vegetable-like baby (Midori ko) and are constantly protecting them from various dangers, a purpose that gives the girls determination and meaning in their existence, both movies are artistic in nature and have a rather dark atmosphere. Midori ko however has more of a comedic side (or ironic to be more precise) than Tenshi no tamago which seems to be more serious and dramatic. 

They both look like a nightmare. The artistic style of both is similar, the tone is tetric, melancholic and of dark characteristics. Both are surprisingly pure and makes you think with the small details of the various symbols of the story. Both have a nostalgic atmosphere and full of emotional fragility. It should also be noted that they are relatively similar in their style when telling the story, they do not take you by the hand or pretend to help you understand the different ideas they have. After all, that is your task as an observer of the art that these works have. Do not expect something simple to understand, just let them take your breath away. read more 

Symbolic, atmospheric, creepy. Expects you to figure things out for yourself. Kinda arthouse. 

Both films are surreal and abstract, both include journey on a physical level, which helps the characters to realize what they really are, and also the pacing in the two movies is difficult to follow up at a time. 

Utena is a shoujo, whilst Angel's Egg is a gothic trip. Both are heavily symbolic and beautifully animated fantasy anime. Anyone who likes going on a brain-cell required ride down psychology-dementia lane will love these two. Dios from Utena reminds me a lot of the Man from Angel's Egg, they are both very mysterious and I am not sure if I love or hate them. 

Chicks and eggs. Before I see myself out, some similarities (+) and differences (-): + Is it a literal egg or a metaphorical egg? Does is matter which is it? + Egg symbolism. + Quiet female protagonist. - Angel's Egg takes itself a lot more serious and is more of an art piece, whereas Kokosake has a traditional narrative structure and tells a simple story. - COMPLETELY different atmosphere. Polar opposites. - Very different settings. They're nothing alike, but maybe you just want to watch anime featuring eggs for some reason. I'm here to help. 

Both anime, albeit very different, are full of subtle and thought provoking symbolism involving existentialism, faith and angels. These elements vary in intensity and character, depending on which show is being talked about (i.e. "Saint Seiya: Tenkai-hen" has more action scenes that don't place emphasis on the aforementioned things and, unlike "Tenshi no Tamago", its symbolism is more obvious, without leaving the interpretation of certain scenes up to the audience). What is more, they have good looking art and offer artsy approaches to their art style's presentation. All of that is accompanied with beautiful soundtrack. Their length is also similar ("Saint Seiya: Tenkai-hen" is just 5 minutes longer than "Tenshi no Tamago". Since "Saint Seiya: Tenkai-hen Josou - Overture" is a movie sequel to "Saint Seiya" TV series, it is highly advised to be familiar with it before watching it. "Tenshi no Tamago", on the other hand, doesn't require any prior knowledge about any other anime show to fully enjoy it, because of its anime original character. read more 

Eggs. Eggs, heavy-handed symbolism/philosophising, dark atmosphere, and I guess depending on how in interpret it (in Angel's Egg) both deal with rape and the loss of innocence. There aren't exactly that many anime films/series that key in on the theme of eggs and their uses as an allegorical device as strongly as these two. So if you've watched either and though 'yes, the take-away message here is eggs and moody lighting, i want more of that', then the other is 100% for you. Mardock Scramble (hohoho) is a lot grittier despite the eggcellent selection of truly awful puns, it's quite gorey and brutal. Angel's Egg is just as dark, if not darker, but more atmospheric and not as character orientated. read more 

Both anime take place in a strange world (Now and Then, Here and There is presumably Earth near the death of the planet, Angel's Egg is...something else). Both revolve around a mysterious, mostly mute girl carrying an object that may or may not alter the fate of the world. Both also have a staff-carrying boy who tries to convince the mysterious girl to put the object to use. Also, in the few instances where you see technology, expect it to be some sort of military technology (like a tank).
