Yu Yu Hakusho - Ghost Files - Season 1

An Anime Classic - That's Worth The Watch
I've always loved Yu Yu Hakusho ever since I was in middle school. It was created before I was born but it is one of my first shounen and one of the only ones that has stayed with me for many years. It is a anime classic, and if you don't mind the length of the series I would hope you enjoy this series as much as I have.It's a fun, kick ass adventure that has a lot of messages instilled in it's episodes. And the battle scenes are fantastic and grip you with the sounds of breaking bones. The characters are fun to watch and I never got tired of watching Yusuke as our fun, daring, silly, hot headed protagonist. The animation is dated but gets better and better as you continue to watch. And the opening song may seem out of place at first but you'll probably end up getting it stuck in your head anyways.It's definitely worth the chance, try and finish disk one before you make quick judgement. Because the adventures and challenges only get more and more crazy, exciting and intense. Yu Yu Hakusho is a show that keeps you on the edge of your seat. Though the series is long the time flies with each episode.It's an experience, that I'm glad to have had. It's definitely something I'm glad to own, and have on my shelf.Funimation didn't release the best made case in the world but the price is undeniable. I did not feel like I over paid in any way. I think I got my money's worth of this item.Regarding this particular seller:Great service. I have no complaints. I ordered Two Day Shipping and got it earlier than the estimated time. I bought it new and it was in good condition. I was surprised at how many episodes it had on each of the 4 discs. Very pleased.

An excellent fighting anime
Yu Yu Hakusho was one of the first anime series I ever really got into, so it's always had a special place in my heart. The characters are somewhat "stock" (you've got a badass main character who secretly hides a heart of gold, a goofy rival/best friend, the deadly little dude, and a somewhat feminine but composed and intelligent character to help round it out), but invested with enough unique individuality that they don't feel like the cardboard cut-outs of a Dragonball Z template you occasionally see in these fighting anime.I'll assume you've read the product description and so won't delve into the story details, but suffice it that this is an action packed story with supernatural elements, lots of fighting and unique arenas/vistas, and surprisingly clever writing. The first season entry starts out fairly light-hearted despite opening with the main character's apparent death, and manages to combine an appealing kind of bubbly optimism with dark humor.The collection itself is a great investment for the price, with four discs in two cases, all within a slim cardboard box. The narrowness of the box itself makes it somewhat prone to squishing around the corners, but on a shelf with other dvds or blu-rays it should last for a good, long time.

An anime masterpiece
This show is a masterpiece. It's got gritty 90s anime action, some stellar voice acting for its time, and it looks really good visually as well. Warning tho, it's got some heavy emotional moments in it tho. I would definitely recommend only 14 - 16 and up to watch this. It can be uber violent sometimes. And there's some disturbing images in it too. It's not a major gore fest at all (especially compared to some other 80s & 90s anime) it's just it can be disturbing for younger audiences. I love this show tho. I grew up on Yu Yu Hakusho alongside with DBZ. Anyone that's ever watched this show on Toonami (when it CN was still good) can attest to how awesome this show was and still is. These dvd seasons are better tho because it's completely uncensored and unedited. Hence why I said what I said earlier up top. But anyway, soon as you start watching you'll be glued to your screen. That's just how intriguing this series is. By time you finish this series, you'll wonder why they didn't at least make a couple more seasons or a 2nd generation. Better yet, they could've made like a prequel mini series like before Yusuke, like either a few generations back, or all the way back to his **SPOILER ALERT** other than human roots. The way they made it, they easily could've gone those routes. Who knows... the original creators probably already did in the comics. All I know is, you're missing out if you don't add this to your anime collection.
