I think it's amazing, but I understand your hesitance. GeGeGe-the anime especially-was made for casuals. Hakaba Kitaro is more faithful to its source material, which is apparently seinen.

Is this version actually more childish than the original adaptation?

It's good, it has that horror feel while being modern but also has battle shounen thrown in.
Digimon ghost game is the same way.

Its a very episodic show but even outside of its episodic nature its not exactly a battle shounen if thats what you are looking for.How good is the reboot? I like the classic shonens, but the character designs look too childish ...
For some reason it seems to me that this is Detective Conan about ghosts.

I have no clue, because only the latest version has an English translation. Some say the 80s anime is the most childish.
