If you loved Mr. Dough and the Egg Princess, try Mein Nachbar Totoro
Eine Brücke zwischen einem Film, den du schon gesehen hast, und einem, den kaum jemand kennt. Das teilen sie, und was der zweite macht, was der erste nicht macht.
Was sie teilen
Both films are directed by Hayao Miyazaki, and they both carry the cozy, tender mood tags, and they sit in Animation / Fantasy territory. If that's the register that drew you to Mr. Dough and the Egg Princess, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Mein Nachbar Totoro is
Rural Japan, spring, a moving truck. Two sisters and their father settle into a new home near a hospital, trees looming with giant presences. This gentle fantasy is best watched on a lazy Sunday morning.
