Kurama: It appears not everyone feels this case is resolved.
SDF Captain: Koenma, you have disobeyed a direct order from your father, King Yama! You must come with us!
Koenma: Yes, I'm no fool. I realized what the consequences would be.

SDF Captain: Brace yourselves!

"SPIRIT GUN!!!"
2 June 2004 | by (United States) – See all my reviews

Yu Yu Hakusho is one of the greatest anime shows I've ever seen. It's the story of a teenage spirit detective and his friends fighting the worst demons from spirit world. The animation's great, the music fits, it actually has a story, and the voice actors are phenomenal!! It's also has clever dialog, FUNimation really did a great job with this project. This show is fantastic all around!!!

This show really grabs your attention, for instance: (Before I knew about this show) I was in the kitchen finding myself something to eat, my brother was watching Yu Yu Hakusho and I could see the TV from the kitchen. I heard somebody yell "Spirit Gun" and I instantly looked up, forgot I was hungry then sat down and watched it. GREAT ANIME!!!!!
