If you loved The Spider and the Tulip, try Little Tora, The Abandoned Cat
Un ponte tra un film che hai già visto e uno che quasi nessuno ha incrociato. Questo è ciò che condividono, e ciò che il secondo fa che il primo non fa.
Cosa condividono
Both films are directed by Kenzō Masaoka, and they both carry the tender mood tag, and they sit in Adventure / Animation territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Spider and the Tulip, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Little Tora, The Abandoned Cat is
Heidi meets Oliver Twist without the streets. A family of cats takes in an abandoned kitten. Gentle anime from a bygone era.
