Being done by the same author, both have the same feel, art, style and similar genres. Both start as a small, simple and apparently childish story, and develops to amazing plots of epic proportions. Definitely two of the best manga ever written.
Both titles are very very depressing. Bad things just keep happening to the characters of the story, though Shadow Star (or Narutaru) is without a doubt much more depressing, so far...
Both are from the same mangaka.

Both start out very childish and cute, but are later incredbly dark, gross, disturbing, and odd. Also both involve strange creatures (and them fighting), school and home life, and both disect their characters. Shadow Star is easily the stronger of the two, but don't brush Alien Nine off, as it is also very good (and a little confusing).

Both are cute, but dark, and depict a particular kind of violence. Narutaru is deeper, has more mature themes, and is more focused on interactions. Milk Closet is more straightforward and the children are younger so several issues from Narutaru don't feature here at all.

Because it's from the same author, it uses a similar drawing style (Doh!). And both are kinda creepy, and that's what everybody loves about his stories.
