Both are realistic heartfelt dramas with a female lead character and beautiful animation.
Both are warm and comforting slice of life stories about finding yourself.

Both made by Studio Ghibli, and had a lot of the same feel. Both center on a young girl who has a love interest, although their stories are told in very different ways, and both are about finding yourself. Whisper of the Heart contains more fantasy elements, though.

Dreams and aspirations told in a very down-to-earth way.

I actually thought they were both pretty boring, but if you did enjoy one, you'd probably like the other. They're both very realistic movies with that beautiful Ghibli artwork. And the real highlight of both: no one portrays childhood quite like Ghibli manages to.

The struggle to find your way in life, To decide your aspirations, To overcome hardships, To feel love for someone.
Both movies share the same themes, but the main characters are 14 and 27 years old, so these arguments are treated in completely different, but equally effective and emotional ways. These Ghibli movies delve into the complex and ever-changing psychology of the protagonists. The way these topics are handled is harshly honest, and yet it manages to instill hopefulness. Their power lies in the storytelling and the subtleties, delivering enchanting and soft-hearted messages.
