If you liked Yuu☆Yuu☆Hakusho add

...then you might like Hunter x Hunter (2011) add

Both are outstanding shonen with lots of similarities to one another, as you'd expect from Mr. Togashi himself, the creator of both series. First off, many ideas presented in Yu Yu Hakusho such as themes, settings, narrative, etc. were later incorporated and polished in Hunter x Hunter, serving as groundworks for most of the series. Further, the characters of both series, main characters and villains alike, are indeed similar to each other in terms of their personalities, goals, motivations, and values. This, in my opinion, has the most similarities the two series share. Similarities aside, Yu Yu Hakusho tends to be rather straightforward and simple, dressed in a typical shonen fashion, while Hunter x Hunter tends to be more complex and detailed. All in all, I find both of the series captivating in their own ways while sharing lots of similarities altogether. If you love Yu Yu Hakusho, then you'd definitely check out Hunter x Hunter.
