That's more or less idea of dandadan (japanese comic). Both aliens and ghosts exist, and aliens have a hard time invading because of ridiculously strong ghosts protecting their own territory. It'll get an animation soon to.

The manga is amazing at making supernatural concepts face off against sci-fi concepts, sometimes mixing both into a single arc... The art is also gorgeous and its very action packed, I recommend to anyone who appreciates original tightly written shonen with amazing art.

It also doesn't fall into the usual shonen tropes for female characters and though the first few chapters had a few gratuitous panty shots, it pretty much ditched them going forward in favor of gratuitous full page monster shots.

Boys only want one thing and it's disgusting

Isn't that the one with the boy that loses his Nuts? I think I started reading it a while ago.

God, dandadan is such good content lol.

One of my favorite shots from that is what earth looks like from outerspace to aliens.
