Sharing abilities

Hey, I'm looking for a specific sort of manga:
One of the main characters has a special ability.
And somehow, by being with that main character, another main character begins to take on the same power.
The perfect example of what I'm looking for is Mujuuryoku Shounen - one of the main characters has like a 'catching' power.
However, whatever you guys can think of would be appreciated.
No tragedy please if you can help it.
Hope you guys have something!

Wow didn't think I would get recommendations so fast - thanks~
Double arts is something I keep meaning to read but everytime I think I'll give it a go, something puts me off, I guess it didn't sound like my thing. But it does have a lot of fans, I should probably finally get round to reading it.
As for nurarihyon no mago I did start reading that and watched the anime. I put it on hold but it's been a while, cheers for reminding me 🙂
enigma kind of fits. It'd be a bit of a spoiler to explain though.
Forever lurking...

I'm not sure but i think that Beelzebub fits. You know how Oga can use those magick-like powers cause of the baby.

I second Double Arts and Nurarihyon no Mago, though be warned, the first was axed before it could really even start; so it will only be 20-some chapters long and will be a bit unfulfilling.

one of the character in "Saito-kun wa Esper Rashii" is somehow able to share her power by holding someones' hand. only 2 chapters were scanlated though

Bleach - Ichigo kinda accidently 'shares' his share of power with several of his friends. Does it count?

Yay more recommendations, thanks everyone.
I really have to read double arts now.
And enigma I appear to have on my reading list already oooo spoilers. I like spoilers.
Saito-kun wa Chounouryokusha Rashii I've never come across before, will be checking it out.
This happens in Bleach, I think.
I recommend Enigma as well.
Baccano! (Novel) - and anime.
The Legend of Sun Knight / The Legend of Sun Knight (Novel) - somewhat. Spoiler, not yet translated:
After learning how to resurrect people, Sun manages to bring Leaf back to life, and as a side effect, Leaf develops extraordinary eyesight. Sun does the same for Judge later, but I can't remember if there were any side effects.
Eclipse Hunter (Novel) - the protagonist, Daren, is an android with a experiment-loving doctor who takes care of him. Also spoilers not yet translated:
The doctor leaves some liquid experiment out, and Daren's friend unknowingly drinks it. After it knocks him out for a while, he wakes up even stronger than he originally was. Another character undergoes an operation that improves his abilities, partially due to Daren and partially due to the doctor.
