I've never seen Asunaro Hakusho, and I don't really want to - I've heard most of the characters are annoying. But, I think this series has that wonderful 90s Japanese drama feeling - everything is more realistic and it is much more about them as people and less about crazy stuff going on around them. With each episode, I find myself wanting more.
But, I really dislike the Hasegawa Kyoko character and have no idea why she is needed in the overall plot of the story. She basically seems be there to cause issues for people. The character is rather annoying. I also cannot stand Satomi's husband - he seems to have married her just so someone would take care of his mother.
Over all, I'm really enjoying the show and (most) of the characters. I hope to find more series like this one.
