It's very, very different. Trails is almost a light SRPG, with the world and NPCs being the biggest attraction of the game. Grandia II is heavily character based (the world and plot are both fairly perfuncatory), and the battle system is a turn-based game with the twist of being able to delay or cancel enemy attacks using your characters' skills. You're often reacting to foes, which does help make battles a bit more varied than most RPGs.
I would say the two appeal to different crowds, so it's hard to say from this alone whether you'd like it. I enjoyed Grandia II when I played it on the Dreamcast, but I also thought Trails was a fine (not great) RPG, so make of that what you will.
