The Animatrix

This applies to the Animatrix in general. It's another compilation of short stories based on an existing property, each with its own style and all. Works out quite well as the Matrix is largely inspired by anime. 

If you like both franchises, Matrix and Halo, then you'll probably enjoy Halo Legends if you enjoyed Animatrix or vice versa. The films have very similar concepts. They are both collections of short films that explore more deeply some of the nuances of these universes. They each provide short films that go deeper into the history of the universes they take place in, and also provide more personal stories regarding the kinds of people who live in these universes. They both offer a variety of story types and art styles about a variety of different kinds of people. Definitely, recommend one or the other to some one who enjoyed one of these. The only caveat is that one would have to have an interest in the franchise to enjoy it because these short films are meant to give a deeper look into a universe of which you would hopefully already understand the premise. read more 

Collection of short stories that are based on a popular western work. Studio 4°C is involved in both of these OVAs. 

Both are a collection of short stories that take place within a franchise of American origin, with stories that are written & directed by Japanese creators. They were also both released in-between the first and second films in a trilogy. I also feel like the art and presentation in both of them have a similarly dark, pulpy tone. 

They're both an anthology based on popular sci-fi franchises that tell unique stories by different writers/directors. 

- Both are anthology series from well-known franchises and have excellent animation. - They have the same number of episodes. Additionally, the episodes vary in length. - The Animatrix has episodes that greatly expand the lore and history of the universe, but Star Wars: Visions tends to lean more on individual stories, though The Animatrix tells plenty of individual stories as well. 

Both The Animatrix and Nihon Animator Mihonichi are collections of animations from different groups displaying what happens when creators are free to animate what they like. 

The theme of both show is the uncertainty of what is real and what isn't, scifi that involves technology in some sort of huge conspiracy. 

Both are anime based on Western media, but more than that, both contain a similar vibe and atmosphere, with elements of cyberpunk and dystopian fiction. Furthermore, both anime deal with the topic of the struggle between humans and machines. 

Both have similar energy have pogged up moments and adds lore to matrix. !epic! 

The animation in both is beautiful and they're both an anthology of animated shorts. 

Amongst my cherished childhood shows, these fascinated me the most as they delved into the intriguing realm of robotics, cybernetics, and artificial intelligence, exploring their darker facets. As a side note, the creators of 'The Matrix' drew massive inspiration from the philosophical universe of 'Ghost in the Shell'.
