If you loved Belle, try The Girl Who Leapt Through Time
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Mamoru Hosoda, and they both carry the bittersweet, foreign gem, playful, surreal, tender mood tags, and they sit in Animation / Drama / Science Fiction territory. If that's the register that drew you to Belle, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Girl Who Leapt Through Time is
Tokyo, summer, a bike bell ringing. A high school girl relives the same moments, a quiet library, a crowded train station. This film lands best on a lazy afternoon.
