Both of these Weekly Jump titles revolve around male protagonists who are the successors of highly decorated organisations (the Nura clan in Nurarihyon no Mago and the Vongola family in Reborn!). The narrative of both titles generally feature the male protagonist developing alliances with other characters, as well as fighting those that get in their way.

These two titles have the following things in common: an organisation that fights with evil youkai; some of the characters have both human and youkai blood; the use of unique techniques and abilities in combat; and a male protagonist who slowly accepts his destined profession.

Even though the topics are not similiar at all it has got a very similar feel to it. Probably because the execution of the arcs/basic storyline is the same.

Both series are about an average, unassuming guy who gets sucked up into a world of classical Japanese spirits living in the world without humans knowing, and ends up becoming a powerful force and influencing the struggle between spirit and human. 
reportRecommended by lithiumflower
Both series share a similar appeal in that their stories follow descendants of youkai. As such we are introduced to the world of the supernatural. They are also action-oriented series that are geared for the shounen demographic.

The main premise of both of these titles revolve around organisations with the aim of removing evil spirits/demons. Fights in both titles not only feature the use of unique skills and abilities, but also generally involve a team of characters.

Encounter youkai from both the demons perspective to humans. Ushio to Tora and Nurarihyon no Mago are both tales of the supernatural. In both manga, you'll see familiar faces from Japan's many folklore's of youkai. If you like one, you'll definitely like the other.

Known for their supernatural content and demons, both Nura and Sengoku Youko crafts a fantasy story with its colorful cast of characters. In both series, the main male protagonist battles against powerful adversaries using their abilities alongside others. But throughout the course of their story, they also face interpersonal problems and events from the past that has profound influence of the present. Both series follows their story also by building character relationships and development. 
reportRecommended by Stark700
Both deal with youkai and deities who either befriend or could care less about humans. Some information is the same, if you liked the yokai in either series you'd probably like the other too. 
reportRecommended by kujika
Both talk about half-youkai, half-humans who deal with passing off as humans.

Looking for a supernatural show with shounen themes? Kyoukai no Rinne and Nurarihyon no Mago revolves around a male protagonist who has supernatural abilities. Their family origins and powers leads them to conflicting events in both series that defies the law of nature. There is a good deal of story building and characterization in both series. While Kyoukai no Rinne has more comedy, Nuraihyon no Mago takes a serious tone especially later on when darker themes are involved. Recommended for fans of supernatural shounen. 
reportRecommended by Stark700
Both of them focus on yokai as their lead characters. The art style in both of these mangaseries are really good especially the battle scenes. If you like the later arcs of beelzebub you wil like this to.

Same premises... well, both are about Youkai. Both of the protagonists' unique power also can be said as very similar.

Same kind of badass demon protagonist with two personalities.

Simila contains Youkai human relations and Sweet slice of life manga 
reportRecommended by Manjuprasad
Both of these manga have youkai.It has some of the some youkai, though Nuraihyon no mago has much more. Kamisama Hajimemashita focuses more on romance with a hint of action,whereas Nurarihyon no Mago is the opposite. If you like supernatural I recommend either of these. 
reportRecommended by necomimi
The heroes of these series have the highest rank under their fellow demons. They can be cruel and unforgiving, but take good care for their own followers. Both series have an interesting supporting cast and deal with many mythological beiings. Nurarihyon no Mago focuses on Japanese folklore and has a school setting, whereas Princess Resurrection takes creatures from varying sources. Both are pretty accurate on how demons are presented. 
reportRecommended by Rissun
Both series deal with the interaction between the supernatural/youkai and humans in a contemporary setting. Aratama gives a very socially structured depiction of humans vs. youkai and treats youkai as inherently evil whereas NuraMago treats youkai as equally morally diverse as humans; as a result, they give different but comparable views on a world in which humans and the supernatural interact. 
reportRecommended by lithiumflower
Both speak about ayakashi from their point of view and not from the point of view of the humans 
reportRecommended by kirasakuya
Both have a group of humans researching and trying to solve supernatural cases. In Ghost Hunt the group is composed of professionals though while in Nurarihyon no Mago they are merely a bunch of middle school students with only 2 capable people. 
reportRecommended by kujika
They are both about a main character who is part human, part demon. Each of them lives for both and the main characters both have abilities to fight other demons. 
reportRecommended by spineslayer
They are both got extreme sword battles and great adventure. 
reportRecommended by Stratovarius223
Demons exist in these manga universes, where the heroes of the stories are actually both human and demon. They go on adventures, for different purposes, with their variety of companions. Nurarihyon no Mago focuses on a young boy as he struggles to keep up with his family heritage as a possible successor for the supreme commander of youkai. Also, Nurarihyon no Mago is mainly set in modern Japan, altering between this modern setting and the spiritual youkai universe.

At the first sight, both series have very little in common. But if you have read one of them and got into it, you'll get a feeling of many similarities while reading the other one. In both of them there are strange creatures and supernatural phenomena. The main protagonist is a character bound to two different worlds and as the story develops, they encounter more and more serious opponents and they try as hell to get stronger in order to protect what's important to them. Plus, both series employ some traditional Japanese beliefs.
