Yu Yu hakusho is one of your typical action based anime with comedy and a lot more. Even though it is so typical, there is still a lot more to offer because it will keep you interested until the end of the series (yes, it’s a long series, 112 episodes to be exact).

STORY - the story is about Yusuke Urameshi, a spirit detective, who became one when he died while saving a kid. He was given another chance to go back to the living provided that he will become a spirit detective. Since this is an action type anime, expect a lot of fighting. I enjoyed the the story because it does not show just “fightings”. It also showcase the different stories that tackles emotions. The humor in this anime is not “trying-hard” type of humor. Most of it will also come to the throwing of lines of the characters in the series, and you will never know who of those characters might amuse you because everyone has its own.

MUSIC/SOUND - i do love the opening and ending songs of this anime that made me listen to it over and over again.

CHARACTERS - the four main characters have totally different package. It might be the same as the other action-type anime but still, the characters were justified by giving them unique stories, personalities and background. What made me like this is that the story did not evolve only to Yusuke but with all its supporting cast giving them enough air time to be introduced and be loved. I’m sure that if you watched this anime, you will be able to love one of these characters, you might have ending liking also some of the antagonists in this anime.

ART - This anime might not have the best art but whatever it lacks in the art was justified by having a lot of styles. The creative team and the stories kept me interested until the end.

MY FAVORITE CHARACTER:
Hiei Jaganashi - he’s my favorite here because I totally love him being snobbish but will always be there for his sister Yukina and his friends. He has a bad history being abandoned by the town where he was born but was able to regain himself along with his long-time friend Kurama Minamino. Even though he’s not the title role, he can definitely kick ass when it comes to fighting that also made Yusuke fear for some time.

RATING: 9

Well, what can i say, this is one of the anime that i grew up with. And all I can say is that I can’t help compare all the action-type anime that i come across after this. Just like Dragon Ball Z.
