Two young teens can see ghosts and work for a spiritual organization. 
reportRecommended by DaveJS
Both are made by the same mangaka and have interesting fights, and story lines.  
reportRecommended by Damonashu
Both manga involve Japanese teenagers gaining supernatural powers. Some characters in both series are quite similar to each other (Yusuke & Josuke, Kuwabara & Okuyasu, etc.). They can also get quite dark and grim by Shonen Jump standards, although "Diamond" has a lot more bizarre/wacky moments. Both were also written in the '90s.

Both with powerful delinquent main characters, who have to protect something; with supernatural themes of demons, ghost e.t.c.

The operant word here is vibes. Jujutsu Kaisen gives of a lot of similar vibes to Yu Yu Hakusho. Be it similarities between Yusuke and Yuji or the fighting of demons or the overall aesthetic of both series. Yu Yu Hakusho is even referenced a couple of times in Jujutsu Kaisen, the author offering up clear nods to an influence of hers. I’ll go so far as to say Jujutsu Kaisen is the modern Yu Yu Hakusho so if you like one I guarantee you’ll like the other!

Both are shounen mangas that are pretty childish in the beginning and become more serious at some point. Both have a stupid main character who grows up during the story. They also have a lot of cool fights and a scary amount of supporting character who usually have a background story, so the reader is very likely to find his favorite character. Both of the series have a simple plot and simple art, and they're both the classic way-too-long shounen mangas, but they never get boring!

Both of these series deal with the supernatural and the adventures of a young boy becoming stronger and having strong supernatural and human allies with them in their journeys.

The main characters, Shinji and Yusuke, share a lot of similar situations and decisions. 
reportRecommended by Sunao
Both main characters roles in their series are kinda similar to each other and they both fight against demons. 
reportRecommended by Gogeta-San
Shounen series about two things: the supernatural, and fight tournaments. YYH is more about spirit-based attacks and demons while SK is about ghosts, but both like to toss in references to Japanese mythology and spiritual beliefs so there's still lots of common ground. 
reportRecommended by lithiumflower
I see a lot of similarities in the main characters and their resolve to fight and unwillingness to give up under pressure. The shows share a similar structure with the dark tournament being showed very similarly to the matches in Slam Dunk, with amazing 90’s art. 
reportRecommended by SteamedPlague
-Both featuring Martial Arts, -Both have martial exam in their manga -Both teach us not give up quickly to achieve something I can say that Tekken Chinmi 10% better than Yu yu hakusho 
reportRecommended by KirinKatoki
It's a shonen fantasy/supernatural manga from Jump(Weekly Shonen Jump not Jump SQ).  
reportRecommended by Ottopus
Both are coming of age stories about delinquents that find a greater meaning to life than gangs and violence. While Yuu Yuu is a shonen fantasy where the protagonist finds a new vocation, a network of friends and a new meaning as a spiritual detective, Bakuon Rettou deals with the realistic trajectory of a young man involved with gangs who matures and begins to review whether this is what he wants for his life.

The big 3 of 90'S Supernatural manga Yu Yu Hakusho , Ghost Sweeper Mikami and Hell Teacher Nūbē are all fun reads with their scary ghost stories  
reportRecommended by RealYRC
Both are manga with the theme of ghosts serialized in Shonen Jump from the 90'S yeah its that simple  
reportRecommended by RealYRC
Yusuke Urameshi and Ageha Yoshina are one in the same characer so if you like one you'll like the other. Psyren feels like the combination of Yu Yu Hakusho and Hunter x Hunter, Togashi's other notable manga series. Both series features a cast of people loosely related forced to fight together to achieve their goals. I cannot stress this enough, if you like Yu Yu Hakusho then Psyren is the closest manga series to Yu Yu Hakusho there is besides Flame of Recca.

Shonen with protagonists who fight against supernatural forces. 
reportRecommended by SengokuHiroAnime
Togari takes inspiration on Yu Yu Hakusho. The main villain is very similar to Sensui in the chapter Black arc creating minor villains for the protagonist to fight while he has a master plan involving showing the horrors of humanity (same idea as the chapter black tape) 
reportRecommended by elvishawk
Hito Hitori Futari reminds me A LOT of the very first arc of Yu Yu Hakusho but done as a seinen series, and I feel this was entirely intentional. Fans of Yu Yu Hakusho before it became a pure battle manga who are looking for something similar but much more serious will probably love this.

Both are about two boys who like to fight and be the best 
reportRecommended by silenteve
Despite YYH's aim for a younger audience, both manga feature strong characters who struggle against the battle against supernatural beings that threaten peace and order. Accompanied by a subtle romantic subplot and intense art, these two masterpieces are a must read. 
reportRecommended by arimakenshin
Both are battle series about slacker heroes given supernatural powers. 
reportRecommended by lithiumflower
If you liked the Four Saint Beasts arc (Yu Yu Hakusho) you'll probably like Evil Crusher Maya, since they are quite similar. In Evil Crusher Maya, the main hero enters a medieval castle to battle a team of four demons, three of them control an elemental ability. 
reportRecommended by BDL
Both of them have a large tournament. If you loved the Dark Tournament in Yu Yu Hakuhso, then you should like MAR, which is pretty much all one big tournament. 
reportRecommended by malvarez1
Both manga's involve gods, devils, and humans and the struggle to keep balance and peace. Both main protagonists are very gifted and have amazing potential for greatness. Both main characters are very straight forward and arrogant but will fight for whats right in any situation. The two manga's show amazing character development and artwork with great detail on the battle scenes. Both manga's share Action, Fantasy, Comedy, and Drama genre components.  
reportRecommended by Obeythealfa
Characters are similar in terms of what they go through, their mannerisms and their roles in the story (for instance, both Yusuke & Goku are the main characters who itch for a good fight), and both series' action is dependent on a mix of martial arts and energy blasts. 
reportRecommended by SaiyanZ
in both mangas the main character strives to become stronger, and meets friends allong the way. as well as stronger enemies that contantly challenge their strenth

FMA is about brothers Ed and Al, who try to bring their dead mother back with alchemy, but Ed loses his arm and leg, and Al loses his entire body (Ed attaches it to a suit of armor). After Ed gets prosthetic limbs (automail), he vows to become a state alchemist to gain access to the information that could restore his limbs and Al's body. Little do they know about the giant war ahead of them and the corruption in the government they'll have to face. Yu Yu Hakusho is about a teenage delinquent named Yuusuke who unexpectedly dies uncharacteristically by pushing a young  read more
