Family Matters (2024 K-drama) and House of Ninjas (2024 J-drama) both explore the theme of hidden identities within unconventional families navigating extraordinary circumstances. In Family Matters, a group of individuals with special powers pose as a fake family to evade a criminal organization, while in House of Ninjas, a real family of retired ninjas is forced back into action to combat a looming threat. Despite differences in setting and style, both series blend action, comedy, suspense, and emotion, focusing on the duality of living normal lives while hiding dangerous secrets, all while highlighting the evolving dynamics and emotional bonds within the family unit.

Both dramas are about Ninja families trying to hide their identity in modern times.
They are both fun to watch, and are a great mix between action and comedy.

Hidden Identities: Both series feature characters who lead seemingly ordinary lives but have a secret, supernatural heritage or abilities, in this case, being ninjas or having spiritual powers.
Family Dynamics: The Tawara family in "House of Ninjas" and Yusuke's friends in "Yu Yu Hakusho" are central to the story, and their relationships drive the narrative.
Supernatural Threats: Both series involve battles against supernatural entities, with the Tawaras facing threats to Japan and Yusuke and his friends fighting demons.
Protection of the World: The Tawaras are tasked with protecting Japan from danger, while Yusuke and his friends work as spirit detectives, protecting the human world from the supernatural.

Superheroes... superheroes as far as the eye can see. Only some of them aren't actually superheroes, it's just the drama showing them as if they almost have superpowers.

The general feeling is the same though.
