Naruto inspired the manga Nabari no Ou. You might see some key similarities between them although later on, Nabari no Ou departs from the Naruto scene since it is set in the modern world. Ninjas are involved; even the main characters are the vessels of very powerful entities. There's a lot more action in Naruto though.
Nabari No Ou is a great anime/manga as well as Naruto there very similar... to say as the main characters both have something evil inside them.. they both have a ninja team with two boys one girl and a powerful sensei... both of them have a brother that destroyed there whole clan but was only doing it to protect the younger sibling... Not only are they similar but i think that Nabai No Ou has some even better twists to it and its very funny.. i wouldnt say theres a lot of romance in there but theres a lot of fighting. Miharu (the main character) finds out about his power when people try to capture him and the power came out a little but was reduced by his teacher and best friend who was found out to be ninjas protecting him.. Miharu is indifferent apathetic towards everything but he starts to open up only a bit but when he meets an enemy named Youta and his friends get attacked he has to grant Youtas wish or his friend will die but he couldnt tell his friends so Miharu accepted joined the enemy group and was trying to find a way to use it even though his friend were mad at him he didnt care he thought as long as they dont die it dosent matter if they hate me but he starts to get attached to Youta because Miharu says there the same.. But when he has to fulfill his wish will Miharu be able to do it!?! (: Well i hope you Enjoy it i wont tell you anymore cause ill spoil it for you okk then have fun!!! (by the way the Anime and manga have to different endings) ok byeeeez (:
i can easily say that Nabari no Ou is the manga baby of Naruto and Pandora Hearts XD lol. the Naruto aspect is pretty easy to pic up on, the whole "hidden scroll" and "forbidden art" type deal is pretty much the basis of the story. Its as if Nabari no Ou springs off of the first 2 volumes (i believe..) of Naruto, where Naruto learns the forbidden shadow clone jutsu. Imagine a Naruto that revolves around learning those forbidden jutsus and you have yourself the basis for Nabari no Ou (with added plot twists of course, which is where the Pandora Hearts plays in ;D )

Both characters are warped, used to live rather peaceful lives, have a dark past, trusts people easily, are hunted down for a reason/reasons, have a contract of somesort with someone/other, ect...
It took me a while to think up the connection between these two manga because it is rather settle, but then it struck me....PLOT TWISTS FOOOREEEVEEER!!! Its so great, cos both give you a sense of "i dooon't knooow who the bad guys are anyyymoooore!!". They allow the reader to see both sides of the supposed "evil" and "good" characters and show what a thin line there is between the two. Both of these manga are EXCELLENT, all the characters have beautiful designs and great personalites

Many people try to recruit the main character (who is a skinny, weak-looking boy) to fulfill a "great destiny," even though he has zero interest, and pretends to be apathetic. Both have a traditional Japanese feel--Nabari is about modern-day ninjas, Izayakaku is historical.

|
Lithe ninja-fighters. Main characters are a guy who takes it upon himself to watch out for someone who *seems* weak and apathetic.
|
|
|
Suspenseful stories, so many mysteries during the series, and both are centered on a power beyond God which was wanted by anyone who was aware of its existence. Both did great coloring on the art, the way their frames tell stories feel so similar.
|
|
|
Both mangas have stunning artwork and touching relationships between main male characters
|
|
|
Both have to do with different clans chasing after the main character.(martial arts in breaker) (Ninjas in Nabari) Both main characters become a sort of ruler.
|
|
|
both of the main characters don't want to be the king's
their character is very similar
|
|
|
The main characters both are almost completely unaware of why things are happening that seem to be centered around them. They also both have a power that they have little or no control over. They each also focus on a certain world, ninjas and medieval.
|
|
|
Both series are about a quiet, relatively antisocial, and seemingly normal boy who turns out to belong to a secret world living in harmony with the world we know without "normal" people knowing. It's hard to put my finger on it, but at times they seem to have a very similar atmosphere.
|
|
|
The art and the sort of action and fighting that takes place during modern day makes them seem similar. The mediators of Kure-nai are really similar to the ninjas in Nabari no Ou.
|
|
|
Has the same saddness, with a plot and an inkling of a darker tale underneath it all.
|
|
|
Similar main protagonists and art style.
|

Even though one is still publishing and the other is a one shot, both are about ninja, and the main characters are pretty similar: a rather problematic kid and the guy who protects him/her no matter what. Both Jin & Thobari-sensei are handsome but awkward ninja that pretend to be teachers at the school of the above said kid, and Hime, despite being a girl, looks a bit like Miharu.
If Nabari No Ou was a shoujo manga, it would be Ichihime Ninja.
