Arch by default uses systemd for its initialisation. systemd is growing much more popular, and most distributions are moving over to it in place of the old System-V style init system. Gentoo uses this older init system by default, but is aided by OpenRC. Gentoo however does have systemd available in Portage.

Gentoo being sourced based makes cramming it onto new or exotic hardware an absolute breeze. If you have packages that need special patches, you can have them compiled in on the fly by adding the patch file in /etc/portage/patches/. Arch is a lot more rigid. They specifically support x86 and x86_64 platforms.

With Gentoo you can tailor your OS to your very specific needs and taste, but that's at the cost of compilation. Meanwhile with Arch you can get great customization capabilities, but to a lesser degree than with Gentoo. The upside is that you don't have to compile everything if you don't want to, so the upside of Arch is versatility.
