----------------------------------------
So we begin the Artifacts of Darkness story arc, one of the lesser plots I'd say but still interesting. It's invaluable in that it introduces Hiei and Kurama, however Goki is so lame. The Orb makes up for his lameness though.

I liked this episode since it was the start of the action part of the show. Hiei and Kurama are cool, but Goki is pretty bad. No wonder he never same back.

I don't suppose that will be Yusuke's only power as the series goes on.

I wonder how frequently he will be able to use that attack once he gains better control over his Spirit Energy.

What kind of school has a teacher who's allowed to punch their students? Yikes. He's way more corrupt than Yuusuke would ever be.

Why did Koenma let Yuusuke use his only Rei-gun for that day when he was about to go on a case? To teach a him a lesson??

School teacher punches student, not really a big deal considering when this was made. Lol I hope by the end of this series, those bad teachers are either gonna get fired or have a change of heart.

Evil teachers are evil, that spirit gun was so satisfying, but now he can't use it when it's needed, not sure if worth it.

Kurama and Hiei look awesome, I can't wait to see more of them.

Interesting primitive form of Nen. Too early to tell how engaging this shift in plot will be in the long term.

Interesting, spirit power, I felt intrigued by the spirit gun thingy. Well, the arc seems interesting, and we got introduced to new characters.

It seems like Kurama and Hiei are important characters as they are in the op.
It would have been better if the opening didnt reveal rthe main characters in like the FIRST EPISODE

More characters were introduced in the anime and they are apparently quite strong, and stronger than all the characters Yusuke has faced so far.
I'm curious to see how this battle turns out.

The beginning was nice.

The teacher is on a mission to be the worst and then there is Koenma letting Yusuke use the one thing he could use against the demon he told him to catch not surprised they escaped to the human world in the first place lol

Let's see how he gets saved from this.

It's finally getting interesting. I wonder how they will go about the power scaling thing.

Bruh, Koenma is so trash. Giving Yusuke a week deadline to do something life threatening, simply because he doesn't want to get in trouble with his dad? I mean, I get it... When I was a kid, I was very afraid of my parents. But still...

Can anyone tell me how I pronounce Hiei's name? It will be appreciated!

She got him back. If you understand the characters well enough, you'd know she did!

Hiei looks exactly like Killua. (Well, It's the other way around I guess)

Nice to see the rest of the cast from the intro finally show up. They really threw Yusuke into this with no training.

This anime is getting to the knitty gritty and I like, with Hiei and Kurama this time, too!
