I hate Bakken for what he did to Kurama but it still makes me grit my teeth when I see Yusuke break those bones.

That's how you fight a jackass of an opponent, you beat the shit out of him! Yusuke is no Goku!

Hell Yeah, Yusuke! For beating Bakken's ass! Bakken is a coward. Good thing Yusuke broke his bones.

Btw, this flying dude is good.

Wow Bakken was so pathetic! Everybody else on the other team are cool though. Looking forward to this next fight between Yusuke and the windmaster guy. Hopefully Hiei and masked fighter can get out of that barrier too.

I cant help but feel that wind guy should get the count started on him when ever he fly's outside of the ring.

Good turn of direction when Yusuke steps into the ring. Fights look like it will get more in-depth. The X-ray on Bakken was a good animation bit. Hope to see more these next episodes

Yusuke destroying Bakken was glorious.

I'm already really liking Jin but that accent makes him hard to understand.

Watching to confirm. Nothing wrong. I've been enduring myself too. Some good stuff. A lot of horrible. Remember Kuwabara fighting the gay guy to rescue his girlfriend????

Big fan of how Yusuke got Kurama out of the ring with the threat of spiriting gunning Bakkens face off and messing up the whole tournament.

Am I misunderstanding why they need all five wins this time? I assumed 3/5 wins was a round, but I guess the winning team is the one that strictly out numbers the opponent which then makes sense. Kurama's down and the score would be 2/1 for the Mashotsukai Team even after those 3 wins.

Bakken was a boring fight as expected, big dumb idiot for Yusuke to beat up on. I get the message though, what goes around comes around.

Uh...didn't we have an entire training match with Genkai, many many episodes ago, where the characters specifically had to fight their opponent without being able to see them? That match where they had to fight them in the dark?

And yet Yusuke can't do this without wasting a shot of his Rei-gun to blow all the fog away? Honestly, he should be better than this by now.

Why didn't they start the count when he left the ring to laze around and enjoy the scenery?

He would have been out by the end of the episode.


And in a 5v5 match with 3 wins for Yuusukes team, why do they even continue to fight? In one of the previous matches against the human zombies, they won after defeating 3 of them, since 2 never appeared at the match...

Or do I mix something up?

Hell yaeah! Getting Bakken destroyed wqas so satisfying to see, although I wanted it to be more brutal ,it still felt soft, If Urameshi wins this match too I will be boring, Hiei and Mask are being missed out a lot.
I still dont know if that Nurse is actually a nurse or is she a part of the Rival team.

Was I happy that Bakken got the shit beaten out of him by Yusuke? You bet your ass I was. Seriously I was cheering when he was doing this. So glorious, so very glorious that fight. Now it looks like it's Jin's turn to fight. And I must say anyone who says that Bakken was a jerk and never liked him, gets some awesome points from me. Hopefully Hiei can fight again in the next rounds I've missed having some action from him.

A modern anime protag would've spared Baken but Yusuke broke all of his bones. What a chad.

I'm liking Jin too he's pretty nice.

Very lucky of Urameshi Team to have persevered this far into the round with only two fighters to work with. Bakken was a pushover, but Jin's clearly on an entirely different level.

Kurama got his two, can Yusuke get his and keep it going to a three?

@Sean_Nessman But enduring for 39 episodes? At this point, just stop watching.
