How were the final phases of the war in Europe similar to the final phases of the war in the pacific?

During World War II, the final phases of the war in Europe were similar to the final phases of the war in the Pacific in several ways. For one thing, the general superiority of the Allies enabled them to initiate combat when and where they chose, rather than the other way around (as had been the case early in the war). For another thing, the Allied troops faced generally unsuccessful yet highly fanatical resistance, leading to continuing casualties and an overall extension of the war.
