What they share
Both films are directed by Hayao Miyazaki, and they sit in Animation / Fantasy territory. If that's the register that drew you to Spirited Away, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Mr. Dough and the Egg Princess is
Humpty meets Baba Yaga in a water mill on a cliff. A sentient blob of dough and an escaped egg-girl flee the witch’s tower on a raft of kitchenware. Joe Hisaishi’s Vivaldi score carries the chase.
