There is this strange sense of realism and probability in these series that you might like if you liked either series. Also a sense of mature responsibility for ones' siblings. Not to mention the need for growing up quickly and taking charge of what is going on.
Both anime have a "Grave of the Fireflies effect" that use several ploys to tug at your heart and give a sad feeling. Both are a must watch.
Both are stories that deal catastrophes and it's effects in a realistic approach. Both have siblings as the main characters whom develop a strong bond through out.

Of the anime I've seen in the past year, both of these have come to surprise me and because of the similar art styles, it made it really easy to get interested each of them.
Both of these series are about certain disasters (higashi no eden=terroist bombings, tokyo magnitude= hugeee earthquake). These two shows also are fairly realistic and deal with problems that the world today faces.

Both deal with the tragedies of natural disasters. Tokyo Magnitude 8.0 from the perspectives of a group of victims, while Rescue Wings shows a rescue helicopter pilot.
These two series come highly recommended to viewers who are interested in realistic human dramas.

Mari and Balsa are very similar because they are like a protective mother figure for the children in both animes.
Both series contain a strong mother figure character protecting&guiding children, albeit Mari not being nearly as violent as Balsa. Not only that, but Mari seems to be as an obvious reference to Balsa, probably due to director of the series(Masaki Tachibana) being an episode director for SnM. Their designs are pretty similar, and both Mari's jacket and bike has a tiger on them, which Balsa was referred as in SnM.

Both series contain some "tearjerkers" no, i take that back, they contain some major tearjerkers! when i was watching Tokyo Magnitude 8.0, some of scenes made me think of Air and i thought, "this is so similar" and it was, in my opinion anyway, but Tokyo Magnitude 8.0 might be a little controversial to be similar to the confusing and unrealistic Air.

Both anime fall under apocalyptic fiction and contain depressing, touching, and mature subject matter. Tokyo Magnitude is portrayed much more realistically while Now and Then, Here and There is fantasy; however, if one of them gripped your heart, you will most likely feel touched by the other.

Japan is struck by an extremely strong earthquake. Both series show how it happens and the consequences from different angles.

They both have the same relationship of two brothers/ sister.
to have to take care of your cute little brother has always a price since you are older and he is younger.
