Is it (E)?

(E) b/c 'although' really brings the contrast out plus this option is concise.

If you refer the Idiom section of Sahil's Grammar Notes,It tells that appropriate Idiom is "different from one another".

On a general note, Can someone explain the difference between "different from one another" and "different from each other".

I think if E want to be right, it must use "one" instead of "each" because "one" goes with "another".
