Basically the same genre and fighting of power spirits/monsters. Both with great fighting scenes and art work pretty much the same.
Put simply, both series share a very similar atmosphere. They also have the same style of implementation, and the same type of villains.

• both main charas are the teenagers whose destiny is to inherit their grandfathers' rank; they both through the story will grow up and slowly accept and embrace this fate

In both series, the main male protagonist may seem normal but he has a secret and possesses supernatural powers. Both contain shounen battle style themes and involves spirits/demons as adversaries. They also take place in a school life setting where they have friends ensuring drama and comedy.
The main male protagonist also inherits a title and strive to carry out a legacy with the help of his friends and family. Both series contains creatures based off of Japanese lore and in general has similar feelings.

Both focus on the theme of "ayakashi" or demons, set in modern times. Both feature protagonists who are young and powerful, yet haven't fully realized their latent abilities. There's an undercurrent of romance in both, with the occasional comedic relief in the form of the the protagonist's friends. Both are set in a school setting as well

Both center around the young heir to a supernatural clan and their fight to control the spiritual forces around them.
Middle school boys, family heirs, omnyouji, and ayakashi. Kekkaishi revolves around a boy who hunts the supernatural, whereas nura is all about a boy who learns to accept that he IS a youkai… but they still have very similar vibes. Both have lovable characters and en engaging storyline.
