An anime series was made by Xebec, Inc. in 2001. In total, it ran for 64 episodes before ending, with 3 specials also produced. The anime series, while originally faithful to the manga, eventually deviated from the storyline as the manga was still being serialized. As a result, the later episodes are completely unrelated to the manga, with a separate and definite conclusion created for the series.
There was a plan to remake the anime series which supposed to be more faithful to the manga, however the plan was cancelled because Takei and the studio failed to reach an agreement about casts and theme songs where Takei's condition was to re-appoint the original casts and songs.
A remake by Studio Bridge was announced in June 2020 and ran for 52 episodes, starting in April 2021. It more closely followed the events of the manga and included additions from the Kang Zeng Bang version.
was also adapted into video games, spanning a total of 13 games in all, developed and published by various companies such as Konami, Bandai, Studio Saizensen, and Dimps.
Despite the manga series having been acquired by Kodansha in 2017, Shueisha's Jumputi Heroes (ジャンプチ ヒーローズ, Janpuchi Hīrōzu, lit. "Jump Petit Heroes"), a Weekly Shonen Jump-based mobile game, featured Asakura Yoh during its Black Friday 2023 event. Takei drew an illustration of Yoh to commemorate his inclusion.
