Yusuke's wake is the one scene from an anime that can consistently draw tears out of me. Keiko's breakdown, followed by Kuwabara's outburst, then Mr. Takanaka's words. Then topped off with the boys mother bowing to Yusuke's mom and then the boys innocent comments about playing with Yusuke later. Just gut punch after gut punch.
Dude, I’m glad someone said it. This anime consistently makes me cry first episode and last episode. The fact that they didn’t change intro songs during a long anime and they allowed the main character to be free from obligations and enjoy his life, topped off by playing the intro song instead of the outro to give a happy little “sandwich”. Best anime of all time accounting for “inflation” lol
It is such an amazing scene. It gets me as well, mainly because on my second watch I was going through a really rough time in my life and felt like Yusuke when it came to his death. But seeing all the different people who truly miss him. It honestly saved my life. I'm sad to say I still need to go back to this episode for some help now and then. But the rest of the anime is such an amazing ride and so much fun!

Fun fact. : in some countries they kinda censored part of the story by changing Yusuke's mother and saying she was his older sister. Mostly because she was a teenage mom and looked like a deadbeat who spent her days smoking, drinking ad not caring much about anything.
Yu Yu Hakusho and cowboy bebop are the two greatest anime dubs of all time. I'm 35 and saw these on TV when I was a kid in late 90s/ early 2000s. Such quality nostalgia!

*This. THIS is the one anime other than Death Note, Attack On Titan, The Promised Neverland and Golden Kamuy that I'll definitely stick around for COMPLETELY and not just to casually watch. I love YuYuHakusho! And the English dub is the way to go with this show! The dialogue is raw and funny and at many times has an "idgaf" type attitude. Love it!*

I love the first episode! Many things happening, One the best 1 episode ever made! Yusuke and Kuwabara are great characters! This is a anime very loved in Brazil, the dub is famous.

Definitely stick with the dub and will love following you guys through this journey seeing as, for me, Togashi's two greatest works are ranked with Yu Yu Hakusho at the top and HxH in second place.

While this series is more battle and it was quite popular with its tournament arc and how that arc was done, there is one thing that some people, me included, forgot from time to time. This series is not about fighting to save the world, fight for justice, or vengeance. At its core, it was a coming-of-age story where characters explored themselves and sought out what they want to be. The series is more personal and up-close to the characters and less about the world as a whole. Just young men trying to find their ways.

It's kind of important that Yusuke isn't choosing to return because people love him, but because they'll be sad without him. It's a subtle difference, but it says something about his connection to others. He doesn't want much from other people, but he does want them to be happy. The makings of a pretty good protagonist.

Joining this channel for this series! I loved that you both teared up!! Thats what Togashi does. Yu Yu Hakusho is the heart of animes inspiring classics like Naruto and One Piece and English Dub is the best!

I have watched yu yu hakusho from start to finish at least a dozen times, the first episode always gets me to cry, every time, oh my the voice acting in the english dub is something to always admire, the feelings they get you to feel, I think the most amazing part is that as soon as botan breaks the tension with her just eagerness to continue I find myself laughing, every time as well, this is partly why this is in my top 5 all-time anime

When i was in my teens (im 32 now btw) a friend of mine recommended this anime to me because i was troubled teenager but Yusuke in the beginning of this reminded me so much of myself, like, the pure bullying life delievered onto me from people using my name to get their way or teachers with the views & points on who essentially i was that was being masked by everyones gaslighting or even my relatives & family tree that was so toxic and view pointed it seemed unreal until religion came to my feet. It almost was like i was reading my whole life story through fictional characters & events and it broadened my intellect for certain situations. I hope you guys continue the series fr. Its amazing.
One of the only channels I've found to watch this. This show has saved my life before specifically this episode, this is probably my all time favorite Anime so y'all get a sub from me just for watching it ❤

Even most people who prefer the sub would probably recommend the dub for this one. The character voices are just so fitting and the witty dialogue of yusuke is unmatched from the original script. The person who did the script writing also did the voice acting for yusuke.
This story on yusuke in ep 1 was a quite happen on real life , in my country i saw a post where a person death was picture by a man sitting in middle of the road but the guy who picture waa the ghost of accidented
If there's one thing I always say about the first episode of yuyu it's that it set the stakes for the rest of the show very well. You see exactly what Yusuke is fighting for and it's extremely effective. 10/10 ep.1 for any anime. Imho
yay YYH! Possibly the most influential shonen manga of all time. Not only were it's characters iconic but was the first to include many 'tropes' and story telling devices that many manga were directly inspired by (Naruto, bleach, JJK, one punch man etc...)
One of the few 90' gems where you can still see the social culture of Japan people, after this, not so much. Can't wait to see you enjoy this to the fullest because it's almost everything 🥰
I am so happy to see that you watch Yu Yu Hakusho! It has been on my watchlist for a very long time as well and I managed to finally watch it 2 years ago. Though the start may be a bit slow you will really like the unique stuff that will happen later on. The characters are all so damn loveable and the main 4 characters are considered as one of the best squads in all of anime (dynamic-wise) by many!
So excited for YYH! This is such a fun time and it’s really interesting to see Togashi play with some early concepts here that get more developed in HxH.
