YuYu Hakusho, Vol. 1

Summary: The real story begins.
Review: Okay, Yusuke has spent 2 volumes trying to come back to life. Now that he's finally done so, we must ask ourselves: Okay, he's done that, so now what? Koenma comes in with the answer. It seems he's seen potential in our newly reborn Jr. High School student, and as a result, is now the official underworld detective, solving problems associated with the other world. His first assignment? Finding 3 stolen artifacts that could spell doom for mankind in 1 week, before Koenma's dad gets returns and raises heck! Continuing the trend of the previous volumes, the 3rd book's primary goal is introduce us to the major players in the storyline, something I consider it does so well. Here, the 3 major new characters introduced are pretty boy kitsune in disguise, Shuichi Minamino, or Kurama as he's truly known, 3-eyed swordsman Hiei, and the aging yet powerful psychic Genkai. Thankfully the series takes time bringing them all in and not rushing their welcome. Although it's the same excellent storyline the anime follows, there are a few differences, for example we go a bit deeper into Kurama's decision to stay by his human mother's side. And also, the artwork continues to excel. I actually prefer the "cutesy" design of the characters as opposed to the more serious designs used for the anime(although those are pretty cool too.). In the end we have another excellent volume of Yu Yu Hakusho, and I definitely suggest fans of the anime check it out.

Summary: You can tell why it's a classic
Review: This book is the perfect start to a great series! It's the kind that can make you laugh and cry in just the first two chapters. For those who have only seen the anime, you have to read the manga! There are differences, but it's mostly the same. Viz did a good job of translating it, making all the characters sound like themselves. You meet most of the main (and priceless) characters. It's a great introduction to a great story.

Summary: Wonderful with 2 'l's!
Review: This manga was excellent! I wasn't impressed with the manga, when I saw it in Shounen Jump, because I didn't know what was going on! But when I got this graphic novel, I was reading it every other day, just to feel the thrills of it.
For younger audiences, there are what parents would call 'bad words' in it (as in many manga), so if you don't want your child or yourself, for that matter, to be exposed to these words, then stay away. ;)
I liked the art in this book. And how the artist expresses everyone's feelings so well. Especially how a kid would act when he or she doesn't understand the concept of death. I was sad when I read some parts of it, but some things are humorous, all the same.

Summary: Yu Yu Hakusho
Review: What I enjoyed about this volume was the fact that it was Yusuke's very first case, as well as introducting characters that would return (Kurama & Hiei). The characters were well drawn, the action never dropped and there's comedy by-the-barrel-full (Yusuke defeating Bat Master when Genkai said he was the strongest beast in the forest). Overall, if you can only get 1 volume, get this without consideration.

Summary: Ghost Files Rocks
Review: YuYu Hakusho is an awesome manga. It is about a kid named Yusuke. Yusuke starts out his day normally. He goes to school, gets kicked out, goes home, gets lectured by his drunken mother, beats up Kuwabara (his rival), and that's just a normal day.
Then Yusuke meets this kid who is playing in the street. Yusuke does one selfless act by saving the kid from a car that would have hit him. Yusuke dies and meets Botan, or death in english.
Yusuke learns that if he wants to live again, then he has to raise an egg. But he needs to do good deeds or the egg will eat him when it hatches. So Yusuke, with the help of Botan, goes around doing selfless acts.
Yusuke encounters a spirit dog and his over-attached owner, Kuwabara his rival, and a "temporary resurection." YuYu Hakusho (ghost files in english) is truly a great manga. Read it.
