Haru Glory lives peacefully on Garage Island with his sister. One day, Haru fishes a strange dog-like creature named Plue out of the ocean, and soon after meets its master, an old man named Shiba. With this man comes terrible news: the world is in peril, for the evil organization Demon Card is attempting to conquer it with power-giving stones known as Dark Bring. To combat this threat Shiba has spent much of his life fighting back with Rave, a Holy Bring; and the Ten Commandments, a sword it powers. When members of Demon Card arrive at the island, Shiba discovers that Rave and the Ten Commandments will now only respond to Haru, making the young boy the new Rave Master. Armed with newfound power, Haru and Plue set forth to put a stop to Demon Card.

Yuusuke is a street-fighting, class-skipping juvenile delinquent. Killed in an unexpected act of kindness, he thwarts the spirit-world bureaucracy and ends up with a second chance at life... as infant prince of death Koenma's Spirit Detective!

Together they plow through demons, tournaments, hijinks, intense "martial arts" training, cross-dressers, dungeons, conspiracies and bad puns alike. At the end of the day, what's it all for? Kicking butt and saving the world, of course!
If you liked Rave than I have a gut feeling that you would like Yu Yu Hakusho just as much. In Rave Master you get action, adventure, and a bit of romance but you can’t get the feeling of being sad when it is over, right? Well you’re in luck Yu Yu Hakusho just happens to have a lot of adventure and action for everyone and will make you wanting to keep reading it and find out what happens next. Anyone also up for some twists and turns? Both of the main characters are always up for a challenge but when it comes to those girls they like they’ll get into more trouble than you would believe and they don’t or maybe they can’t, take a stand when the girls get mad. These two mangas have a lot of things in common but at the same time they are totally different than each other. So if you can’t find any other manga that has these top three genres and you’re in the mood for something that’s sorta out of this world then try this manga and see if you like it.
Gon Freaks is a young boy who lives peacefully on a rural island, until one day a mysterious man who calls himself a hunter brings him news that his father is still alive, and is also the greatest hunter of all time. With this new information, Gon is now determined to become a hunter and find his long lost father. First, however, he must pass the hunter exam, where he will make new friends to help him in his adventure.
This is more of an instinct than anything else. But, Rave Master starts with a boy (and his older sister), who is fairly content to live on his small island, until he meets the "dog" Plue, and an old man, (the old rave master), and realizes his place as the new "rave master" as well as his missing father's role in this legend. Well, crazy enough, Hunter x Hunter starts the exact same way. It’s about a boy (and his aunt), who is fairly content on his island, until he meets a man (a hunter), and learns about hunters, and his father's role among them.
Both stories are about two boys, adventuring in a world they know very little about, fighting dangerous enemies, keeping the world safe, and making the most loyal friends along the way. It may just be my instinct, but if you like one, I really do believe you'll like the other.

Both Buster Keel and Rave Master feel very much alike, almost as though they were the same series (or at least sequels). The artwork and character designs (especially of the main characters) is extremely similar, as are many of the characters' personalities. The types of adventures involved in each series & the way those adventures unfold is very similar as well. Even the fact that both involve a lot of music/musical references is the same. If you enjoyed either of these series, you will definitely enjoy the other.
