to be honest i do believe inuyasha and rouroni kenshin are over rated. As far as yuyu hakisho is ive only seen the english cartoon network version so im not even gonna comment on that seeing as the way they butcher almost everything that goes onto that channel thats kidish and others as well.
So i'll comment on ruroni kenshin and inuyasha.
I have seen a fair amout of inuyasha and i'll agree thats its formulative and that it really doesen't seem to end and so forth and that it is over rated (considering in america most people aren't exposed to very much anime) I believe for it's genre it's pretty good while it remains to be formulative but i do not believe its the best. Personally i believe bleach is probally going to be the best tho i havn't seen much naruto and the soul society part of bleach was way too drawn out in my oppinion. SO i believe inuyasha is good in some ways but its not the end all to anime that most people seem to make it out to be but it is certainly not bad. Personally i don't find bad anime until i see stuff like samurai showdown or anime that has nothing but fanservice. I don't mean chobits i mean something thats nothing but fanservice. As for ruroni kenshin the ova's (which aren't pon trial but i thought id mention them) they are excellent top notch very very good. As for the tv series of ruroni kenshin while it has varying degrees of quality such as some of it is amazingly good other parts are pretty good but lacking a little and some of it is just plain hard to watch. But if long and drawn out is the way you like your story which most shonen anime is then it's really not bad. Long and drawn out when done well and kept interesting isnt nesseccerily a bad animation style though sometimes it definately is.
So yeah i wouldn't say those are bad anime id say they are average to good for their genre and for anime overall
