Though Millennium Actress' narrative continuity - albeit quite jumpy - contrasts with La Maison en petits cubes' lack of narrator, the two are uniquely similar in that they are framed narratives communicated via the melancholy reminiscences of an elderly protagonist. Both stories unfold as Impressionistic splashes of recollection; the audience follows as the past leads to the present, drawn into each respective protagonist's current despondence.
In both anime, there is an elderly main character who reminisces about their past. Both anime have a very melancholic feel to them, and a narrative which mixes reality with fiction, as well as metaphors.
