The only bad thing for this show is the episodes. Why 5 only? Netflix why???? This is so good. One of the best live adaptation.

a bit disapponting because fight between tagoro and genkai was cut. It was obvious the story is rushed.

I think it's just one reason. From the beginning, Netflix did not intend to make a show that lasted from season to season like Stranger things, The witcher, but just a serie for them to introduce Yu Yu Hakusho to people who did not know, then those people would watch the anime version on it.

agreed with the number of episodes. I also have issues with their wigs that don't complement with the actor's skin tone. One Piece's costume department made several tests on the wigs so that they match the actor. Keiko's wig was also bothersome. In the scenes of Keiko and Yusuke's mother you can notice the difference of how the hair falls.

The actors are very down-to-earth and humble. Not only did they show it in their calm voice and choice of words (probably a Japanese culture), but also they were very hands-on in their action scenes - such as Kurama's twist which I thought CGI. I really hope to see Season 2 with them in the spirit/demon world!

I can see the imperfection of the Netflix series of my beloved Ghost Fighter/ YuYu Hakusho but I am greatly thankful for all the people who contributed to this series. These contributors did not throw away my fanaticism. As for now, my gratefulness is far way heavier than my critique. Knowing for the first time that my beloved Ghost Fighter/ Yuyu Hakusho has a live action/ animation Netflix series reignites my gusto for the original animation and at the same time makes me feel proud that there are so many other people who are hooked on this animation. 😊❤️🌄🌅

Damn I grew up watching the anime back in gradeschool to highschool. I even recorded the intro music using a cassette tape recorder just to write the lyrics to memorize it. Notebooks, posters, text cards you named it I have it until I disposed all of it before college. I appreciate that this adaptation didn't stick to the original source material to make it fresh for long time fans. Hiei of the anime was my personal fave among the 4 but for this series, Kurama nailed it. And oh boy.. I'm happy the actor did a very good job portraying my personal favourite villain in the anime and having the coolest name before Setsui, Karasu or I always call him Karazu.. Hoping for the the next arc of this franchise and would love to see an adaptation of an equally underrated anime Flame of Recca.
