I wrote at 11:57 AM: I've watched very little YYH (one episode a while back, and that's it) so I'm glad that CN rolled back to the first episode... damn, this was some good s*it. Talk about emotional... heh... the series definitely got off to a damn good start. I like the way the principal guy told off those two pricks, because they deserved it. I mean, insulting a dead kid at the funeral... how low can you go? It was ridiculous. But yeah, I'm going to make a habit of watching it now that it's back on CN.

Wait until you get to the Dark Tornament saga. you think the 1st ep. was good, these will blow your mind.

Godzilla wrote at 12:42: Yes YYH's first episode is some powerful <pojo ownz><pojo ownz><pojo ownz><pojo ownz><pojo ownz>, and the show only gets better.

Enjoy :)

I wrote at 1:08: Keiko's post reminded me... Keiko and Botan are both cute. Mmm. That's always a plus.

jman wrote at 4:52: yea the ep with genkai and toguro is sad also.

gapprentice wrote at 12:13 PM: which part....the part abou the past or when he kills her?...too many....wait untill after the dark tounry is over....more sadness there......ALOT.....i won't say ne spoilers.....cuz they r all over this forums neway....but's lots of our fav characters die...ok not lots.....but 2

I wrote at 7:27: Man, I'm really starting to like that principal guy (Japanesey names take me a while to learn). It was awesome how he stood up for Kuwabara, even though he started to attack that teacher. They'd never do that at my school. But yeah, that principal has his head on straight... that teacher had it coming. Ah well, as much of an ass as that teach is, I love to hate him.

And speaking of Kuwabara... he seemed to be kind of a thug at first, but he's helluva honorable. He definitely has my respect.

"Man, does this guy have a life besides tormenting students?" Hehe... funny Yusuke.

gapprentice wrote at 10:10: u watched yyh 2day didn't u?....hahahaha i watched it too lol :lol:

Keiko2k3 wrote at 11:06: i think that the episode where Yusuke finds out Genki died and he starts haveing flashbacks, and the one that came to mind first was when he was training with her and he said,"I hate you!"

Jan. 8th

jman wrote at 4:40 AM: yea thats the ep right after she dies i think or was it the ep she died in.

Mika Wong wrote at 8:59: yay...=^-^=-meow

I wrote at 7:58: Gah, I missed the first few minutes of today's episode because I forgot about it. As luck would have it, this was the one episode that I've fully watched.

Is YYH on on Fridays?

Keiko wrote at 8:46: yes: Monday-Friday

jman wrote at 10:11: i thought it was gonna be on monday through friday because thats the only way they will reach the dark tournament in march. if i counted right we won't see the new eps of yu yu hakusho until around the 3rd or 4 th week of march if they run through the whole series without skipping eps.

I wrote at 10:19: Thanks, Keiko. Just making sure it isn't Monday-Thursday like Dragonball.

Oh... are they playing through the whole series this time, jman? Heh... that'd be pretty cool. Watching 112 episodes shouldn't be a hard schedule to maintain if I like the series enough.

jman wrote at 10:41: no i don't think there gonna even go pass the end of the dark tournament i think they are gonna milk this series for all its worth since dbz is finished and dragoball is finished. they have 14 or 15 new eps and that takes the count somewhere in the 60's in eps. they aren't planning on releasing any new dvd's so don't expecct anything beyod the end of the tournament until the eps are released on dvd.

Jan. 9th

Keiko wrote at 10:48 PM: uhh...i mad a mistake. i just found out that they are only showing yu yu hakusho monday-thursday, cuz of a movie they are showing on fridays. i am sooo... sorry. my mistake. i found out today, the hard way. i was expecting to see an episode and when it didnt come on i was <pojo ownz><pojo ownz><pojo ownz><pojo ownz>ed! and i think that someone posted that they are going to show the first 56 eps or something like that and then show the new eps. correct me if i'm wrong.

jman wrote at 11:45: its alright keiko we all make mistakes no big deal but i do think they might skip eps now but i'm not sure if they are going to or not.

Jan. 10th

jman posted again (DOUBLE POSTING <pojo ownz><pojo ownz><pojo ownz><pojo ownz><pojo ownz><pojo ownz><pojo ownz>) at 12:09 AM: they are going past the dark tournament for sure they are releasing new dvd's and the next saga i just checked the official site.

Spike wrote at 11:01: Yeah, JMan, I watched the clip on the official site for the fighting with Sensui's kids. It said available by FUNimation, I wonder if it's out now.

jman wrote at 4:27 PM: no the new dvd doesn't come out until January 20.

I wrote at 9:18 AM: I'm gonna keep this alive forever. XD

I love the scene in yesterday's ep where he came out of nowhere and kicked that guy away, and he was like "Hi" all badass-like, and then everyone was like, "Woah, it's Yusuke!" Scene reeked of badassness, all-around. And of course, the scene where Yusuke woke up... being dead for a few days made him look a lot nicer.

Bottom line, yesterday's episode owned.

Today's episode was great, too. Mmm... Botan looks pretty nice in her human form... hehe...

I was right. Botan looks even better in tomorrow's eppy, in the blue clothes and everything.

Anyway, perviness out of the way... shouldn't the mirror guy have spared Kurama from the start? He was going to give up his life to save his mother... that seems noble and selfless enough to me. *shrugs* It's the same thing as what Yusuke did, except Yusuke came out of nowhere and he was trying to help two people... ah well, him sparing them was a touching plot point, regardless.

Hiei vs. Yusuke looks badass.

MasterGenkai wrote at 11:59 PM: "I like the humour in this show so much"

haha yeah, same here.

"but I have no Idea where to get the other DVD's (only way of seeing the show as I live in England) anybody have an idea where I can get further DVD's?"

Since I don't live over there I can only recommend a few things:

Ebay (might want to be wary of possible burned/unofficial copies of the dvds but sometimes there are excellent deals)
It's where I plan on getting the Spirit Detective saga, in fact.
I got my only yu yu dvd off Ebay and it was the real thing, sealed and all. (cheap too)

DumbEgg.com - they have the first (dunno if there's a 2nd) box set for only $66, rather than the retail of around $100, but I think it takes 2-3 weeks to ship out.

I think Animecornerstore.com has some pretty good prices too, but remember, you can find used dvds in very nice, if not mint, condition off Ebay for a shockingly low price.
HTH

jman wrote at 12:04 AM: make sure you now what your buying because there are edited and unedited box sets of the spirit detective saga.

shannara wrote at 12:14 AM: lol, I wouldn't have suggested that place had the box set been edited.
I for one always gotta have the uncut version in dvds.

jman wrote at 4:07 AM: ohh ok just trying to be helpful thats cool i always go with the uncut versions but i do have some edited stuff i have tons of movies i can't go to sleep with out watching a movie or an anime

Keiko wrote at 8:29 PM: (Majin yami)

Just wanted to say that i LOVE your LOTR pic!

Jan. 19th

I wrote at 7:35 PM: At least I can stop editing that one post now.

Thursday's episode was cool, although that was too long ago to make a review. O.o I loved today's episode. Genkai has style, heh...

And Genkai further proves herself to be cool as hell. I liked Kuwabara vs. Sword Wielding Guy better than Yusuke vs. Mask Faced Dude.

jman wrote at 3:48 AM: Dr Casey 2 i can't wait until the Dark tournament your really gonna love the fights they are really good

Jan. 26th

I wrote at 9:32 PM: The Dark Tournament seems to be REALLY long and confusing...

Today's episode was cool. I'm glad that Rando's out of the picture, because he was getting on my nerves. Six months foward... interesting... and Yusuke, Kuwabara, Hiei, and Kurama working together... cool and stuff.

That took a while... I SAID I'd keep the topic alive, though. I gotta go, but I'll elaborate later on this statement - these fights against the Spirit Beasts and whatnot so far totally kick ass. And Rando is an annoying <pojo ownz><pojo ownz><pojo ownz><pojo ownz><pojo ownz><pojo ownz><pojo ownz>. Rar.

I missed episode 14. Stupid having stuff to do for once.

Yu Yu is a great series. However it was much better on Adult Swim 2 years ago. They've edited alot on the Toonami version. I doubt Adult Swim will have Yu Yu anymore since lil kids know bout Yu Yu now.

'Cept for the bit at the end, yeah.

You know, I really bet they'd have felt stupid if Kuwabara had panicked and fallen into the lava while they were making jokes about not helping him. <_<

you know i was thinking the exact samething. what if did fall, would hiei go after him? speaking of hiei, i liked the scene when kurama asked him if he could reach him. hiei replied, "if need be". i loved that part! :)

Damn, Botan looks good in your sig. <_< And yeah, I liked that, too. Hiei was so cool right there.

Speaking of Hiei, I was really looking foward to seeing him in action, and he didn't let me down. I was surprised at first whenever parts of him got frozen... but of course, he had things under control. (:

Man, not even twenty episodes into the series, and Keiko has been the damsel in distress twice... :p Oh well, as long as she's back. The final Saint Beast looks cool. I'm glad this one was killed quickly instead being dragged out like Byakko was.

You know... Kurama, Hiei, and Kuwabara fighting those Cultivated Humans was awesome. Since they're basically cannon fodder, it was a good chance to get more of a feel for their fighting styles (Hiei and his sword, Kurama and the Rose Whip, Kuwabara and his fists).

Woo, Sazaku's dead!! I was starting to get tired of his punkass. Whenever he fully healed himself, I was SO p!ssed. The Saint Beasts Saga seemed really cool to me at first, but I think it got kind of tedious after the Stone Beast... :/ I'm glad it's over with. Kuwabara really came through, eh?

Damn, Keiko is so hot. That dress made her look even better. Not that that's the only reason I like her, but ah... anyway, I liked the peacefulness towards the end of the episode. I always like the little peaceful segments between adventures, where everyone has a chance to relax and be normal before the adventure picks back up.

Another week of episodes finished...

It was fun seeing Yusuke and Kuwabara totally own all those enemies. :D You shouldn't have EVERY enemy be a difficult opponent, after all. This was a nice, relaxing change of pace after Rando (or whatever his name was) and the Saint Beasts.

Man, those Toguro Brothers... I hate them, but they're definitely surprising. Whenever he said he didn't feel like killing that monster I didn't think he would, and I didn't expect him to pay a little tribute to it after he finished killing it... that whole thing with the birds was pretty bad, though. B@stards. I hope Hiei gives them a good kick in the ass.

And I missed today's episode. :( I decided to take a little nap and overslept. Glad I woke up in time for DBZ, but... how was today's eppy?
