He gains extra abilities too, such as being able to concentrate spirit energy called Reiki at the point of his index finger and fire a “Rei-Gun”. He is allocated missions by Koenma, with Botan assisting him, to track down demons and yokai in the human realm, which can be returned and prevented from causing trouble. Yusuke is informed that, because of his new abilities, he is qualified and is given the job of Reikai Tantei – Spirit Realm Detective. However, when he returns to his body, he finds that he has powers that allow him to spot demons living in the human realm, and so is able to capture demons that Botan can banish from the world of the living.

There he meets Koenma, the son of Yama (the judge of the dead in Buddhism), who gives Yusuke a series of tests to see if he can live correctly, which he manages to pass and finds himself restored to life.
At first Yusuke turns her offer down, but after witnessing his own wake and seeing that there were some people who did care for him when he was alive, he takes up Botan’s offer.īotan then takes Yusuke to the Spirit Realm/Spirit World known as Reikei. So Botan offers him the chance to come back to life. Yusuke was not meant to die in the way he did, doing such a good deed following a life of bad behaviour, meaning that neither Heaven nor Hell has a place for him. He is informed of his predicament by a girl called Botan, who works as a guide across the River Sanzu if you watch the Japanese dub, or across the River Styx if you watch the English dub (there are several differences between the two translations), who flies witch-like by riding an oar. However, he doesn’t find himself taken to some fantasy land – at least not immediately. The story begins with our hero, delinquent Yusuke Urameshi, being killed in a car crash, but saving a young boy’s life in the process. This is what happens at the very start of Yu Yu Hakusho (or YuYu Hakusho, the spacing varies from place to place), an early manga by Hunter x Hunter creator Yoshihiro Togashi on which this anime is based. However, watching this adaptation of a Shonen Jump classic from the early 1990s does invoke a feeling of: “Weren’t things better when an anime character could die in a fatal car crash, and not automatically wake up in a different world?” Some of these complaints have merit, others not. Many people complain about how things were better in the old days.
