It's really over...

All demons suddenly deciding not to bother humans sounds a little fishy, but okay. Besides that, it was a nice ending overall.

This was a pretty enjoyable series. The first arc was great, but once it settled into its battle shonen ways it grew very cliche and dull. However, the show definitely improved as time went on. I personally think it hit its stride during the Chapter Black arc. The final arc was indeed rushed but started out well, had some interesting themes, and provided proper closure for the main characters nonetheless.

The setting was interesting and the main cast was quite entertaining. Not one of my favorite shonen, but it was a fun ride. 7/10

Brilliant ending to a brilliant series, I would have liked a better final arc though, I hated the exclusion of Kuwabara and how underwhelming the arc actually is compared to the previous arcs as well the unresolved plot line of Hiei revealing to Yukina that he is her brother, also what was Yusuke doing the last 2 years? But regardless of all that this series is amazing!

Never saw this anime in my childhood and I'm happy I watched it.While the story is not that special but still better than Dragon ball z and since the fights are well done the anime stay very enjoyable.

It's over!!! It's finally over!! I can't believe I've made it to the other side. I started this 471 days ago and I just can't be happier that I finally finished this garbage. I've never been such a minority with my opinion of an anime before. Of the 103k ratings this has only 137 of them are a 1/10 and I'm proud to say that I'll be the 138th! This has been my ultimate challenge as a brave and courageous no dropper! Nothing frightens me anymore now that I've beaten my powerful and mighty foe Yuu Yuu Hakusho. Today... today was a good day.

It was fun. Sometimes it was boring, but still 8/10 is good score IMO.

It's been a while since I've seen a show I enjoyed this much. Brilliant characterization and some of the best direction I've seen in an anime, especially during the fight scenes. It got a tad rushed in the final arc but it's now one of my favourites nonetheless. That last scene on the beach really got me. :')

Great show overall, it's a shame that the Three Kings arc couldn't be developed further since I really loved it, but apart form that great series overall. I probably would have rated this higher if I had seen it back when I was kid, unfortunately this was the only show I couldn't watch back in my childhood.

Meh, how people think this is the true magnum opus from Yoshihiro Togashi is beyond me. Sure it's better than a lot of the other shit long running series like DBZ, One Piece, Fairy Tail, Bleach, Naruto, Katekyo Hitman Reborn and Toriko. But wtf? it's like Togashi didn't give a shit about the series towards the end. I don't blame him, the power system was weak and inconsistent, the characters had very simple and personalities and the story was predictable AF (besides the ending ofc, because Togashi just rushed the hell out of that)

It's certainly not as bad as most of the other long running shit out there but damn no where close to being as good as HxH.

What an ending. I don't know how to feel, I'll miss this show, but I'm also glad I'm done with it. I loved the spirit water gun Yusuke shot at Kuwabara. If anything, I will remember this cast for a long time to come, fantastic four main characters.

For an overview on my opinions of each arc:(since I wrote an essay i will spoiler tag it)



This show has flaws, major flaws, but I really did enjoy the ride. Yusuke, Kuwabara, Kurama and Hiei all grew on me immensely and I love their relationships with each other by the end. The strongest part of this show is by far the cast, they are simple, yet memorable and strong. And I would still recommend this show to anyone who wanted a cast that would leave a lasting impression on them. Sadly, almost everything else falls apart at times and is almost never well constructed. Fights, storytelling, everything. As much as I'd like to rate this show higher, I'm going to end on a 6/10.

Fantastic ending to a series that just kept getting better and better.
As rushed as the final arc was, the conclusion to the series was just so satisfying for all of the characters, that I can't complain at all. 9/10.

I'm just gonna quote you because this is what I was thinking the whole time and couldn't say it better.

Also, I didn't like the "meaningless" deaths either. When Genkai was resurrected I was pretty much disappointed. Same with Kuwabara, that "he didn't touch any of my vital points" was bullshit lol

In the end I pretty much binge watched this and I can say I really enjoyed it and got attached to some characters despite its flaws and cliches.

Glad I finished this. I was pretty stupid a couple years ago to always change the channel when this popped up on Adult Swim.. Was quite a shame the author follows the whole "main cast can't ever die ever" cliche. As only my third anime I've ever watched I can really appreciate the impact it left on me.

It had some flaws but overall it's 8/10 for me.

Also no Toguro, was hoping to see him in the end.. at least once, he's the best villain afterall

I've watched this series two times through now and I still love it. The characters fit together great, a lot of cool side characters as well. (especially from the DT and just before) and a pretty nice built world. I just wish this was so rushed at the end. Demon world was ascribed to being this huge multiverse like/size place, and they even had the main character spend 3 years there. (two of which just wondering) It always felt like this should have been at least another season longer. But despite that, what a great ending! Epilogue endings are the best for stories like this. (hell,.. today, any ending at all seems good with the fad of "open" (i.e. unfinished) endings/stories we have now.. trash.) I'm probably going to watch it again after i'm done with his current series.. wash the taste out.. blah.

Spirit Detective arc: 8.5
Dark Tournament: 10
Chapter Black: 8.0
Three Kings: 9.5
Overall: 9.5
Ending: 10


But it still makes me wonder to this day why this got rushed (shafted) to an ending when he was working on two different series. Haven seen enough of both, it's pretty safe to say that nothing of value would have been lost in rushing his other series instead.

And thus Togashi was inspired to fill Hunter x Hunter with traps.

It's really good to get these epilogue endings, there was a huge sense of closure that came with it.

ugh.. only the start of the problems there.. The ones that aren't traps are either monsters (literal and not) or, much much more likely (especially earlier on.. first half) dead! I mean.. just.. at first it just seemed like part of it's over the top edgelord nature (people calling it 'edge x edge' lol) but..

Agree 100% about the epilogue endings!

That was a rushed return by Yusuke, I wish they would've made him come back after a long time all grown ( now that would've been cool and romantic). The last arc "Demon realm tournament" sucked for me, all the previous arcs especially the dark tournament were great. After the Sensui arc things started to go haywire for the show, in fact let me say when they pulled "Yusuke's true origin" and came back to life as a demon. The demon realm tournament was rushed and stupid, but most of all he lost and they didn't show it to us. What killed me the most was that they made a completely irrelevant character to win.

It was almost like the writer was tired of the series and just wanted to wrap it up with an empty romance and the most popular segment the "Tournament". Where is the marriage he promised Keiko and what happened to the order of Enma to annihilate him? It was all bad writing even on the antagonists, they all were good guys who all just were dying to Fight, especially fighting strong opponents. Toguro was the better antagonist than Yomi or Muguro, Sensui tried but eh! Badly written show, but targeted at people who just want a fighting superpower anime with no plot whatsoever like Dragonball and Bleach.

So many things were wrong about the show I could write a bible. But on the flip side the characters were lovable except Shizuru whom I didn't get her purpose there even if she's Kuwabara's sister, she was older than them and Yukina should've been the main instead.

6/10.

Now that was a nice final episode! Everyone was rather lonely with Yuusuke gone, ouchies. The girls mistaking Kurama for a girl haha, not really a surprise though, I mistook him for a girl too at first... Keiko grew up so much, she's like a completely different person! The reunion was really really sweet, I felt happy for Keiko, haha. Climactic ending. Awesome anime, had a great time.

Good ending. It really wrapped things up between the whole team, and I loved seeing Kuwabara again. Everything in this episode looked good too. I feel like the reunion of Keiko and Yusuke could have used more depth if I want to get more nit-picky, but this was a good ending.

Despite its flaws, Yu Yu Hakusho is still, in my mind, one of the greats. Enduring characters, great fights, wonderful moments and interactions, sick character design, impressive animation (especially during the middle two arcs)... I could go on and on. However, I'll just say this: I loved this series so much that I bought a Yu Yu Hakusho tank top, and I wore it while I watched the final episodes.

I never thought a show would be so special to me that it would cause me to do something so sentimental and saccharine, but here we are.

Well this is really mediocre for todays standard. Togashi didnt pre-plan the story so we did see many inconsistencies. But atleast this is still better than DBZ which was more repetitive and a lot of characters became irrelevant beside Goku. Although we see many DBZ inspired elements in Togashi's work.

I've revisited this anime dozens upon dozens of times since i was a kid, and after all these years and all the other anime i've watched, i still haven't found one with an ending that made me feel the way this one does. To me this is the perfect ending to an anime (say what you will about the pace of the last arc), and my favorite ending to almost any piece of media.

I've brought up YYH to quite a few people in the last few months and it saddens me that literally no one remembers this anime, at least around me.

I think i'm gonna rewatch it again soon, it's been about a year so it feels right.

I like the idea of talking about this anime with other people again so i hope it happens soon.

Yeah there were some flawed and cliche moments especially when you judge a show 30 years after it came out and every other Shounen started copying it.
but overall this was a pretty enjoyable show to binge especially if you don't take it seriously.

The main 4 guys + Koenma and Botan are really some of the best main characters ever. and even tho some of the fights didn't age well, it was still a fun watch because of these guys.


and not to mention the stuff Togashi learned from writing this is what helped him write the perfect masterpiece that is Hunter x Hunter.

my biggest flaw these days is that i cant sit down and watch an anime longer than a few episodes without getting distracted, partly due to life, but also because of all the good content there is out there now and how much of it i want to consume.

That being said hunter x hunter has been at the top of my "a bit of a long watch" list for soooooooo long, i want to watch it rrally bad so maybe I'll finally do that, ive heard that its a masterpiece so idk whats taken me so long.

This interaction may be the push i needed so thank you!

The most overrated anime, a alot of ass pull, and random plots. Yusuke backstory was the weakest and lamest between the main crew. There are many anime and manga from the 1980-1999 era that deserve more hype than this anime.

great ending with great smile on my face :D

keiko had been grow the be beautiful.
too bad that hiei wasn't with them.
and though i'm curios to know what yusuke had done in the meantime, it's not hard to guess.

as for the series, it have a lot of ups and downs, but what is great about YYH is that it had great moments as Sensui's arc and the start of Yokai Realm arc and grea pace that a lot of shounen doesn't have.
9/10

edit: after some thoughts and seeing other comments, here is my little review:

Spirit Detective arc: 8/10

Little slow and had some bad parts, but the first episodes and some stories were masterpiece.

Dark Tournament: 7/10

Honestly for me it was the worse arc here, too much dragging boring battles, but ended really nice.

Chapter Black: 9.5/10

I believe this is the best arc here, it starts in really good way and have great story all the way, great characters an really original ideas, the only thing that brings it down is the fight at the end that felt DBZ style.

Three Kings: 9/10

I honestly thing this arc is divided by 2 parts - Demon realm part and Tournament part, while the first part is feeling like refreshing and developing the second part feeling a lot like the dark tournament arc, but with much more greater pace and less boring.

My favorite part was Hiei’s picture in the paper and Kuwabara’s reaction to news that the barrier was open. I grew to like K as a character especially when him and YY were flying on Puu to the demon world to continue the fight with SS. Man K can dish it out with the best of them.

There are very few anime based on manga that I like and can rewatch. Yu Yu Hakusho is one of them. I also really liked the manga as well.

I don’t think a live action version of Yu Yu Hakusho anime would work. I would probably watch it. But with all the fight magic that the anime has the live action version seems like it will end up being a CGI MMA version. I really wish they would just continue the anime instead of doing a live action version.
Hopefully the live action version will be as good as the Detective Conan live action version. If you saw the Dragon Ball live action movie u will probably know why a Yu Yu Hakusho live action version could be terrible.
