I've been following Nurarihyon no Mago up till now. I like the story and how the youkai are portrayed (not all of them were made to look like a cool guy and pretty girls, so they still retain their unique characteristics). The action concept is quite similar to the use of "Nen" in Hunter X Hunter (if you knew that series) which is good IMO Every youkai has a unique power depending on their nature, and can be manifested in different forms.

Despite that, I think the anime is rather lacking in action scenes. Not as intense as most shounen series, especially in the 2nd season where the art quality is kinda deteriorating. I recommend reading the manga, though
