California Story is seen as the predecessor to Banana Fish following very similar themes, as well with taking place in New York City too, except set in the late 70s. I highly recommend you read it, I did right after I finished the BFish manga, its around 50-60ish chapters.
The story follows Heath Swanson who's run away from his home in San Diego and travels cross country to NYC to live with some friends. On the way, he meets another runaway kid named Eve, who's dream is to visit California. Eve grows an attachment to Heath and follows him along to New York and they begin on their time surviving NYC in the late 70s.
Also, this story is where Jenkins and Charlie first showed up fun fact, so it too takes place in the same world as banana fish.
