| ''[[Yu Yu Hakusho]]'' || ''[[Flame of Recca]]'' || Manga/Anime show starring a [[Ragtag Bunch of Misfits|ragtag bunch of youngsters]] joining forces to fight evil with supernatural powers. || Both manga were adapted into anime by the same studio. || A bit complicated. Technically, Yu Yu Hakusho as it's more popular worldwide. However while YYH had a more successful anime, the manga was canceled prematurely and not as fondly remembered. Flame of Recca on the other hand had a very succesful manga that manged to complete its story with no problems, but a largely unsuccessful anime.

| ''[[Eden of the East]]'' || ''[[Future Diary]]'' || Anime show featuring a group of individuals who recieved cellphones with special properties, forced to take part in a twisted [[There Can Be Only One|elimination game]]. || ''Future Diary'' started earlier as a manga, but was adapted into anime years later. || ''Eden of The East'' had its rightful share of love from critics and viewers as well, but nothing like the fad caused by ''Future Diary'', mostly thanks to its gruesome story and [[Ax Crazy|unusual]] [[:Category:Yandere|heroine]]

| ''[[Pokémon (anime)|Pokémon]]'' || ''[[Digimon]]'' and ''[[Monster Rancher]]'' || [[Mon]] series about kids [[Walking the Earth]]. Usually involves defeating some sort of [[Big Bad]] too. || All three went off in different directions. Though all three were [[Merchandise-Driven]], ''Pokémon'' become a blatant merch show after its third season, while ''Digimon'' and ''Monster Rancher'' remained plot-driven series. || ''Monster Rancher'' was the first to go, dying quietly right at the end of the [[Mons]] boom of the early 'Aughts. ''Digimon'' soldiered on for a few more years before it too died with the end of ''[[Digimon Frontier]]''. However, it was revived a few years later with ''[[Digimon Savers]]'', and ''[[Digimon Xros Wars]]''. Meanwhile, ''Pokémon'' is still a [[Cash Cow Franchise|massive titan of a franchise]]. The common refrain of the Poké-Digi [[Fandom Rivalry]] is "''Pokémon'' has better games, ''Digimon'' has better animes."
