Both have not only the same theme of the effect of war on children, but the general atmosphere of the playfulness of children and their families. While Those left Behind is usually taken to be the more popular of the two, Rail of the Star talks about other things in family relationships and seems to expand more the characters of not just the main lead girl but others. I think the story of Rail of The Star is more unique, but I liked both anyway and if you saw one, you should definitely see the other.

Both anime are based on autobiographic novels telling a WW2 related story trough the eyes of a primary school aged child. Both in their first half show their daily life and play in a slice of life style. Thereafter, the tragic event ending this peaceful part and the resulting consequences differ in both stories.
