Bleach and Ga-rei share a very similar aesthetic in regard to both narrative and character design. Both revolve around the constant battle between exorcists/shinigami and the evil spirits that they cross paths with. 

If you enjoyed the first arc of bleach but the feeling died once the fighting gone too hardcore for you (second arc onwards), ga-rei might just be your thing. 

Male leads can see spirits that other people can't see. This ability causes them to be involved in a supernatural world, and eventually both characters become sword-wielding bad-ass who fights in order to save the world. 

Both have lead characters that are able to see things that no else are able to see and quite a bit of action in them as well too. 

Being by the same author, Ga-rei and Tokyo ESP both share similarities with the plots - fantasy powers, apocalypse and a group of protagonists that need to save the world. Another rather evident similarity is the author adding in elements of romance in both these series that mix quite well with both of these manga. 

Created by the same author so expect similar themes. Ga-Rei and Tokyo ESP not only feature similar character designs but also has a similar setting in the modern era. What also exists in their worlds are supernatural powers that certain individuals posses. Throughout the course of their story, expect plot twists that has great influence on the characters' roles. There is also relationship building although presented different for both series. Recommended for fans of super-power fantasy. 

Both were from the same mangaka and both have psychic abilties as a story focus and quite a bit of action and a female lead in it as well too. 

These two are INCREDIBLY similar, and Holic should be at the top of the recomendation list for Ga-Rei. Both protagonists can see ghosts, Yomi even looks like Yuko, and I have a sneaking suspicion that the author/artist of Ga-Rei was a CLAMP fan. Both are comedy and both are considered shounen, although Holic is much more on the shoujo side. 

Both stories have characters that are able to see things others cannot really normally see and both have moments of comedy in it too. 

Ghost Hunt and Ga-rei are heavily rooted in supernatural elements, such as Japanese folktales, in a present setting. The main characters' jobs are to exterminate ghosts and supernatural creatures to protect the citizens. Both stories also feature romance between the main characters. 

Both have female leads characters with supernatural abilties a mix of comedy and action in them as well too. 

Both series details the events of supernatural elements with two of the main protagonists being the center of it all. Tempest and Ga Rei are two titles that explores the world of the supernatural. Both series main female protagonists also forms a special bond with the main main protagonist. With that, they present action, comedy, drama, and a little romance in between. Both series has a twisted plot that has a darker edge to it as the chapters progresses. 

They both deal with spirituality, though Nurarihyon no Mago is more demon-oriented whereas Ga-rei is ghost-oriented. Ga-rei reminds me of demons, especially the ghost Yomi. There are shikigami users too in both series.
