*spoiler* The Makai Saga...
There are three great powers currently controlling the Makai: Yomi, Mukuro, and Raizen. Raizen is dying because he refuses to eat humans. With his death approaching, he would like someone to rule in his place. But Yomi and Mukuro would also like to become the sole leader. Yuusuke eventually proposes that they hold a tournament to decide who becomes the ruler of the Makai.
That's the short of it. I don't want to spoil too many details, especially who wins the tournament... :smileywink:

I have another question for you today! The CDs that you list on your website... I take it that they are not all from the show itself. Are they just collections of the different VAs singing? Is there a purpose behind it?

Mmm... not sure what you mean. Wait, I think I might know what you mean. Do you listen to anime soundtracks regularly? The Yuu Yuu Hakusho soundtracks, for the most part, are all image songs - those are songs sung specifically by the characters from the show. (Just explaining in case you don't know.) The soundtracks also include the opening/ending themes. That's all that is included on most of the soundtracks... they're a lot of fun to listen to.

There are few soundtracks that are all background music from the show itself, or instrumental versions of image songs/themes played by an orchestra. Ooh, forgot about the dance mix soundtrack too. A lot of them also include mini-dramas, which are just weird little fantasy dialogues between the characters.

The only special one is the Super Covers soundtrack. The opening/ending themes are all covered by the voice actors for the main characters, who all happen to be J-pop stars. They sing in their normal voices, rather than in character.

Remember how Rikku01 thought he was an expert on YYH on here? He thought Yuusuke won the tournament too, and the real answer was posted directly above him in the thread. XD I'll never forget that... I laughed so hard.

The actually episode titles are typically much more direct. For example, "Death of a Spirit Detective" is on the DVD "In the Blood" So I think that there is a much bigger spoiler with episode titles.

The Japanese ones are pretty vague. Except for the good old first one, "I'm Dead! What a Surprise"... I didn't like how the English one got watered down. It looks like they forgot their! exclamation point. :smileyvery-happy: Sorry, I'm rambling again.

He didn't leave... I still see him around the boards, but I don't think he ever comes into YYH threads anymore.

You explained it beautifully. Thanks!

I am just now begining to listen to the actual soundtracks. Most of my anime music collection is the opening and closing songs, so I did not, in fact, know what image songs were. I had, erroneously it appears, assumed that the soundtracks were similar to those of movies, consisting only of songs from the movie/show. When I was looking at your list, I saw that most of the songs were sung by the voice actors and got really confused. I was sitting here thinking...wait, I don't remember any singing in this show... :smileyvery-happy:

On a completely unrelated YYH note, why is it that Adult Swim Cannot show Unedited Episodes.

I watched some of the Dark Tournament on Adult Swim (When that Saga was on) and it was pretty good. Reciently, I got the first Dark Tournament Boxed Set, Uncut. It was alot better. ALOT better.

Adult swi, is supposed to be for shows that cannot be shown on Daytime Television, so why can't they show uncut episodes?

Those weren't too bad... I don't like that they changed the last episode title though. :smileysad:

I bet they're going to cut this picture out of the end of the episode! (It's not a spoiler, but funny as hell.)

If that's the case, then screw Cartoon Network. I am sticking with DVD's.

They actually do not play completely uncut episodes. I've seen some weird editing done with other shows. I'm not real sure how they would handle YYH though... However, I would lay money on a bet that they would edit out the scene with Miyuki where he feels him up. :smileyhappy:

[ On a completely unrelated note: When is that inane Kurama/Kagome thread going to die? ]

It would be interesting to see what they would do with it...

Edit: I removed the vileness from the thread...

I didn't know that... the only action shows I ever watched on [as] were occasional episodes of Bebop and Trigun.

I'm not real sure how they would handle YYH though... However, I would lay money on a bet that they would edit out the scene with Miyuki where he feels him up. :smileyhappy:

I know that was edited on Toonami... but that episode was originally aired back when YYH was on [as], wasn't it? Someone who used to watch it would have to verify that.

[ On a completely unrelated note: When is that inane Kurama/Kagome thread going to die? ]

...Heh, there's been worse threads than that. Whenever those annoying idiots Star_Kagome and Eta_11 and their group of friends get involved, they chat about pointless crap until the threads get locked.
