Both are from the same producer, relaxing scenes, no talking.
They have a similar art style and color theme. Both are accompanied by music and lack dialogue. Both are surreal and mysterious; and share a calming and somewhat bittersweet atmosphere. Also, both focus on only one central character, and the world through that character's eyes.
Similar art style and calming nature.
short, sweet, artistic and they're both done by Kato Kunio....no lover of animation should miss these two gems.
Very similar animation and have a nice silent movie theme going on.
Both are short stories produced by the same studio, got the same astounding artwork, and got a similar feel to it with no dialogue.
The same author. Short and speechless animations, show us the daily life of our protagonists. Slow-paced.
Both are slow paced, use visuals as the main medium to demonstrate human emotions. High recommend Tsumiki no le.

they are both very artistic and poetic and driven by an awesome musical score.. so if you can't appreciate something that's more interpretive and artsy then this probably isn't for you.. they feel something like a daydream, something pleasant and floaty.. yea, floaty.. hah.. anyways they're both great.

Howls Moving Castle is similar to Aru Tabibito no Nikki for their music, and dreamy pictures/landscapes. Both of these animations have the power to put you under a spell.

Similar style and music. Main characters of both look similar as well because they both wear large top hats.

Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou is the quintessential tranquil anime. It paints a picture of wonderfully laid back countryside life, with warm relationships between characters. And of course, there is the relaxingly slow pace, unmatched in anime as far as I'm concerned. Most of that can also be said for The Diary of Tortov Roddle. In this anime, a traveler goes on a journey across rather peaceful landscapes to all sorts of different places. There is no dialogue, only the travel notes written by Mr. Roddle. Both shows will warm your heart.

"Aru Tabibito no Nikki" and "Inaka Isha" have a similar visual style and a content that is difficult to understand.

They both have beautifully surreal settings and situations but spirited away is more exciting and less sweet
|

Similar mood and general feeling. A bit of surrealism and nostalgic.

Random yet interesting surreal events which seem completely out of this world. Extremely short sequences.

Similar weirdness, very surreal. Not much talking.

Angel's Egg is a lot more "deep" than Tortov Roddle, but both of them transport the viewer to a fantastic and surreal world. If you enjoyed the sights and sounds of Tortov Roddle, then you will love Angel's Egg for its artwork alone.

Similar, surrealistic landscapes and atmospheric music.

They both go on journeys, discover things that they think is unique and such. Kino travels for three days while Tortov Roddle travels according to his diary.

While at first glance these shorts seems to be on opposite ends of the spectrum - Kigeki a fictional story set in the historic Irish War of Independence, Diary of TR set in a surrealist world with no ties to reality - there exists a very similar feeling between them: The style and colors are luminously muted, both stories leave the viewer with no real sense of closure, and both create a strong attachment to the characters with very little (or no) dialogue.
