has also cute things and same author
a game with dolls fighting, well angelic layer don´t have magic and the dolls even speak or have powers
Magic Knight Rayearth and Angelic Layer are not that similar in terms of storyline, but if you want to check who inspired Suzuhara Misaki and her angel Hikaru, reading the first series of Rayearth is a good call. Shidou Hikaru has the same determination and fighting spirit of Misaki/Hikaru. Read both series and compare the development of these two "little" girls with a lot of challenges to win in their lives.
Instead of life size dolls, Angelic Layer has small "Barbie-sized" dolls (aka Angels) that are pitted against each other by their owners (aka Deuses), who control the Angels with their minds. The main character Misaki ends up buying one on impulse when she first arrives to move in with her aunt and ends up getting involved in an Angelic Layer tournament.
Chobits pretty much takes place in the same universe as Angelic Layer, making it somewhat of a spin-off. If you pay attention, you'll see light references to Angelic Layer. It's even mentioned once later in the manga. The creator of the Angelic Layer game is also the creator of the Chobits persocoms. However, the connection between the anime adaptations is very different.
Both Angelic Layer and .hack//Legend of the Twilight Bracelet share in the fact that they are both happy and light reads. They both take place in an advanced semi-future with cyber games, although the world of .hack and 'The World' can seem darker at times.
