- Spiritual Successor: The Red Spectacles can be interpreted as an example of this to Oshii's previous film Angel's Egg. Just like that one it deals with a character trying to cope with a world he or she doesn't understand. Angel's Egg is even alluded to in a scene of The Red Spectacles where the main character points out that a dish named "angel's egg" is not served anymore.
