Synopsis

Yusuke Urameshi is not exactly what you'd call an angel. In fact, some might call him down right devilish. But when he dies in an accident trying to save a child, he finds himself in the Spirit World. Unfortunately for Yusuke, his name is not listed in the Book of Enma, which means it was one big mistake! So he should return from the Spirit World, but must pass a few tests first, and become a detective of the spiritual world.

So now Yusuke works in the Spirit World as a half-dead, half-alive agent for Koenma, son of the ruler of the Spirit World. This position does have its disadvantages, especially when you're trying to enjoy your summer vacation and Koenma gets kidnapped! So now Yusuke must interrupt his summer fun to find Koenma and trade the Golden Seal of King Enma for his life. But if someone other then King Enma has the Golden Seal there will be chaos in the Spirit World! What's a half-dead spirit detective to do?

With the aide of his closest allies, Yusuke sets off for Magma Valley, to save the life of the one who saved his, and find out who's at the bottom of this evil conspiracy.

Anime features and extended OVAs tend to get a bad reputation, and I'm not exactly sure why that tends to be the case. I think in part it has to do with the issues of canonicity, and the fandoms obsession with canon, as well as the nature of the promotion. If this was labeled "Bonus Episode" rather than movie, i'm sure you would see a score point boost alone. There is really nothing here that significantly differs from the actually series itself, and for what is essentially 20 minutes worth of content, it really didn't feel very different from the main series?

It could be ...

Nothing screams cash grab quite like a side-story movie to a popular shounen series. In the case of "Yuu Yuu Hakusho: The Movie", nothing screams mediocrity quite like it either.

So little effort was put into "Yuu Yuu Hakusho: The Movie" that it hardly qualifies as a movie: it clocks in at a stingy half hour in length. When you also take into account the inconsequential story, then this anime should really have been named "Yuu Yuu Hakusho: The Throwaway Episode".

"Yuu Yuu Hakusho: The Throwaway Episode" is set after the Dark Tournament arc, so it's hard to believe how overpowered the bad guy in this anime ...
