Okay guys I'm asking this because I am extremely out of series to watch/read.... My favorite series of all time are "Hunter x Hunter"(Hiatus x Hiatus) and "Yu Yu Hakusho" which ended years ago, I love them both dearly and all the other series I've been invested in has ended or is ending like Naruto and Bleach..I know there is the monthly Boruto manga but right now it's just a retelling of the latest Naruto film which is nothing fresh..with HxH on Hiatus and Bleach ending I have nothing to invest myself in..should I get back into One Piece??
any recommendations??

lol i saw the title and came here to reccomend hunterxhunter

If you're looking for shonen, then that's it. HxH, one piece, Naruto, Dbz, Db super, bleach... but i think you already know them. I recomend Attack on titan. Bleach is crap right now, and i don't like one piece.

Read Toriko. Anyone who is currently reading this manga can second this, it's absolutely crazy. You get crazy action like this and there's so much more like over the top world building. This isn't even the best of it.:

Nice tag team attack

Fights can be really intense, especially this one.

The scale of the fights in incredible and the world building is really something else. There's lot of creativity/thought put into Toriko as well. A lot of people don't give this series a chance since they don't like the idea of hunting/eating ingredients but really it's a lot of fun after a while. I will tell you right now, this series isn't as great as HxH (I mean HxH is easily the best shonen atm) but it does remind me of HxH with it's narrations & large scale world building (which Toriko does better I must say).

Just ignore the Toriko anime at all costs, it's awful. The manga is the best option.

Attack On Titan.
Tokyo Ghoul.
TerraFormars.
Code Breaker.
Deadman Wonderland.
Akame Ga Kill.

You can also try Monster which it has a great anime adaptation and Another. So you don't need to read the mangas for these two

Manga- Naruto and Akira
Anime- Mobile Suit Gundam 00 or SEED but all of them are good, recent anime for me has to be Boku No Hero its really good

Suggestions:
Death Note: This series centres around a genius Japanese high school student who finds a supernatural notebook that allows him to kill anyone through any means of death he wishes by writing their name and death and imagining their face. He decides to wipe the world of all criminals. The police (headed by the Japanese equivalent of Sherlock Holmes) investigate the murders. One of the best battles of anime/manga history takes place in this thriller. 37 episodes OR 108 chapters (finished).

Liar Game
: An honest college student gets dragged into a tournament where different games are played at different rounds. The winners profit and the losers rack up debt. She seeks the help of the genius con man Shinichi Akiyama and they play the game. Many twists and turns and genius plot writing with some very intelligent characters. If you like Shikamaru's fighting style, you'll love this. 201 chapters (finished)

Monster: More mature than the last two (and any of the anime I've seen). Set in Germany during the Cold War, Kenzo Tenma is one of the best doctors in the world, and saves the life of two child twins instead of the town mayor which went against what he was told to do. Several years pass and Tenma discovers that one of the twins he saved is a genius, mastermind criminal. After witnessing how evil this boy has become, Tenma sets out trying to kill him to fix his "mistake". Very mature as it delves into the lowest of society and makes you think a lot. 74 Episodes (finished). I watched the dubbed version which I found to be better than the Japanese version.

How about an anime where drama and shit are on a soccer playground. Manly expressions. Epic moments. Almost super powered youth for such epic skills and highly godlike spirits couldn't win world cup. A blast from the past of 1983.
