Assuming that you already know the yu yu hakusho plot in advance and is reasonably farmiliar with the movie ill get straight to the point.Koenma,yuske's boss has been kidnapped while getting some fun and relaxation at the beach.The culprits threaten to kill him if they do not recieve the golden seal,an instrument of untold power which will enable them to rule the entire world.Botan informs yusuke of this and he and the gang{i'll assume you know who the gang is}embarks to save him.Sorry if i make this movie sound more entertaining than it was,in truth it is basically a yu yu hakusho earlier ...

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 ...

Yu Yu Hakusho is an Anime about an aberrant young man named Yusuke Urameshi who is killed while attempting to save a boy’s life. After leaving his body he finds that a place for him in the spirit world is not available! After fulfilling a task given to him, he is resurrected in his old body. This time around his body comes with Spirit Powers, and a few strings attached; he is called upon to work as a Spirit Detective to investigate any suspicious activities brought about by the demon world.

Yusuke's resurrection changes his mind-set and behavior, he slowly discovers new ways to use ...

Yu Yu Hakusho was a good anime. I've also reviewed Hunter x Hunter, which had the same author and was great. Today, we're talking about Yu Yu Hakusho the movie. They call it that, but it's only the length of an episode so... that's a thing. But I've reviewed shorter anime that were classified as films and the length, in this situation, doesn't mater so much as the quality of the content. So, let's look at it and see how it holds up.

Story:

We open with Botan fetching Yuusuke & Kuwabara while they're engaged in a brawl. She tells them Koenma was kidnapped and ...

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 ...

I enjoy YYH as much as the next guy, but this......'movie' (really just an episode) is pretty meh. I'd usually give it the full run-down, but it's not worth it. Let's do this!

Story (6) - Koenma gets captured, Yusuke and the crew struggle to get there but overcome the odds with luck and perseverance; it's basically a lost season 1 episode. I personally prefer pre-Dark Tournament YYH/Season 1 YYH, so I enjoyed it because it's not so DBZ-esque, but I recognize that this is just glorified filler.

Art (5) - I think the art in the show is pretty solid for its time, but here ...
