I believe they have a very similar feel to them. Warfare, tragedy, secrets being withheld by superiors, and the overall fight for love and peace.. there's great adventure to be had in each. The musical scores are fantastic, too. (You'll find yourself watching the OP and ED themes more often than not.)
Not to mention, Alice (Pumpkin Scissors) resembles Mirepoc (Bantorra) so much it's laughable.
Note: Women in power are sexy. :P
