 A stage presentation for the Yuu☆Yuu☆Hakusho franchise at the Jump Festa 2018 revealed on Saturday that it will receive a new anime special, which will be bundled with the 25th anniversary Blu-ray box set. Drawn by Yoshihiro Togashi, Yuu☆Yuu☆Hakusho ran in Shueisha's Weekly Shounen Jump magazine from December 1990 to July 1994, and compiled into 19 volumes. The series won the 39th Shogakukan Manga Award for best shounen manga in 1993. The manga inspired a 112-episode anime adaptation by Studio Pierrot, two movies in 1993 and 1994, as well as several OVAs. Viz Media published the manga in English between 2003 and 2010. Funimation licensed the anime series for North American distribution and released it in 32 DVD discs, before compiling them into four season box sets between July 2008 and January 2009.

| Ehhhhhh????? Just one episode? Well I guess that gives them a reason to buy the box.... |

| Yuu☆Yuu☆Hakusho (2018)?! I hope a remake will be made soon by Madhouse as well! |

Killbay_Kun said: The HxH wannabe will return, 0 fucks given. Did you devise a plan to make yourself look like an ignorant idiot in MAL within a couple of months of joining MAL? Then congratulations! |
| Stay Home and Wash Your Hands. Protect Yourself. Protect Your Loved Ones. Protect Your Community and Help Defeat Coronavirus. |
Honestly, I could see this happening. 2018 is the ultimate year for surprise sequels and specials. If the put as much heart and effort into it as the HxH reboot, it would be a great move. |
| Heh, I just want to see Kurama, the most beautiful character. |
 |
| I read the manga and thought it was quite boring and couldn't get through it fast enough to be done with it. It had funny parts on occasion, but I really don't see the hype for this series. |
| I get to see 2018 Botan :D Is this new boxset a remake or just them re bridging it back out? |
 |
| Thanks to the anime that I got to know Megumi Ogata (Kurama ❤), one of the few favorite female seiyuu. I read the people's Tweets that conditions of some seiyuus are not suitable for voicing for the new ep., but mostly hoping they would reprise. The cast also met up again this Summer, didn't realize it was for this. https://www.animatetimes.com/news/details.php?id=1498039404 |

 |
| I'll take any YYH I can get; I always felt it got less "revival" content than other 90s Shonen manga. |
Bum Bum Dum Dum |
| YESSSS MORE YUSUKE URAMESHI |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| I hope they animate that chapter where Yusuke meets his real father. |
| can't wait! LOVE this |
| Hope they completely adapt the manga this time. |
 |
| Wow this is actually great news. 2018 looking brighter than ever |
| Nice! This one of my favorite anime of all time. Which is made by old Pierrot studio int he old days. (they are shit right now.) I will watch this for sure next year! I hope it's gets subs as soon as possible to watch it. It's made by old Pierrot not Maddogshit House. |
| Haters always gonna hate. |
| That reminds me, I still to rewatch the original anime some day. Watched it when I was a kid on Toonami but I don't believe I got to the end. Killbay_Kun said: The HxH wannabe will return, 0 fucks given.  Lol at all the people that took this seriously. |
 |
| Well I guess it's time to rewatch Yu yu hakusho until HxH come back xD |
"Signature removed"   |

| Wow, I'm looking forward to this. |
 |

| Exciting news! Can't wait to see how this is done with todays modern style of animation |
 |
| I hope they make a full remake with a modern animation and visuals. Madhouse can do a good job like they did with HxH 2011 |
| Now a remake with togashi writing the anime script needs to be done. |

I hope you're joking. Nothing is worse than a low-budget remake. |

I hope you're joking. Nothing is worse than a low-budget remake. First of all, Yuu Yuu Hakusho doesn't need a remake because the original series is already better than majority of long running series and holds up well to this day. A remake by Madhouse would be a terrible idea because there's no way they could do a better job than Noriyuki Abe, Atsushi Wakabayashi and Akiyuki Shinbo. Second, Pierrot has already done a successful reboot of another old series called Osomatsu-san. |

The original was a complete adaptation. |
Modern animation. Modernize the animation and kids and adults alike will like it. Why can't it have one? |

The original series already looks better than most long running shows like Madhouse's HxH. Heck, what makes you think the current Madhouse where they've lost most of their good staff can do a better job than the likes of Noriyuki Abe, Atsushi Wakabayashi and Akiyuki Shinbo? |
