Un-Go

both have the same episodic/arc storytelling. in both we can see some confusing mystery getting revealed with the use of supernatural powers. both are based on japanese classics. main characters have the same aloof image, and use sort of supernatural creature to get to the bottom of the mystery. while mononoke is more serious and enigmatic, un-go is lighter and more about fun.

Un-Go is similar to Mononoke as it deals with the life of a detective Yuuki Shinjuuro whom people refer to as The Defeated Detective for some professional results. He hangs out with a young boy who is actually a demon who's taken a human form. Yuuki often uses the helping hand of this demon (Inga) to expose the truth or the lies in people's hearts in order to solve his cases.
However, it is also a limitation of Shinjuuro who cannot do anything significant unless Inga asks one question to a particular person, as prescribed by Yuuki; which people are bound to answer.
