Win or dieAug 31, 2008
By E. A Solinas
"ea_solinas"
The longest and most savage arc of the "Yu Yu Hakusho" series comes to an end.... just in time for our heroes to get blindsided by a brand new threat to the world. Ah, fun.
In fact, the third season of "Yu Yu Hakusho" is pretty much packed with entertainment. While the end of the Dark Tournament Arc is all hardcore, bloody action and quite a bit of pathos, the story that follows is even darker and more twisted -- although thankfully still tinged with a sense of humour. If only Yusuke's final duel with Toguro hadn't dragged out so long, this collection would have been ideal.
Kurama barely triumphs in his duel with Karasu, until a replay reveals that he lost the point anyway. So it falls to Hiei to fight the monstrously powerful Bui with his newly retrained Dragon of the Darkness Flame, shattering the stadium and threatening to destroy everyone around him. And Kuwabara goes up against the grotesque, unkillable Elder Toguro -- who drives him into a rage with the revelation of Genkai's death.
Then there's the duel everyone's been waiting for -- Yusuke and Younger Toguro. And though Yusuke's training has given him immense new powers, he still can't beat his demonic opponent. But then a familiar voice tells Toguro the secret to unlocking Yusuke's power -- kill one of his friends. And when Toguro seemingly murders a helpless Kuwabara, Yusuke's rage and grief cause his power to skyrocket -- but will it be enough to defeat Toguro's 100%?
Then there's the aftermath of the battle. The team thinks back on the person they all miss, and in the Spirit World, Genkai has an encounter with Toguro -- revealing his true motives.
But no sooner have the teammates returned home than Yusuke is kidnapped by a trio of teenage psychics, who are keeping him in the bizarre House of Four Dimensions. His friends undergo a series of trials to get to him, only to learn the true purpose of this exercise -- someone is forming a vast tunnel to the demon plane, which could unleash tanker-sized demons in less than a month. Yusuke and friends must stop the mastermind behind this -- but they must also deal with a squad of extremely lethal psychics...
The ending of the Dark Tournament is a pretty solid one -- lots of fiery black dragons, dismemberment, Toguro's gross green muscles, and a stadium that finally collapses. It's quite a credit that after dozens of fight scenes, this series still manages to amp up the voltage for the final round of fights, and delivers a few shocking twists along the way.
The big problems: a certain dead character fails to stay that way, and Toguro and Yusuke's battle is kind of anticlimactic after Hiei's literally earthshattering duel and Kuwabara's inspired attack on elder Toguro. Ah, well. You can't have it all.
But things really heat up in the beginning of the next arc. It starts off on a rather lighthearted note ("I'd rather not explain to your teacher why I can fly")), but once the whole Tunnel-to-Demon-World plot is revealed, things take a darker turn. We're treated to some truly gruesome fight scenes, such as that of the mad doctor who uses his "territory" to poison hundreds of people at once. And it's packed with secrets and mysteries, particularly about the new bad guy.
And fortunately the stories are still liberally speckled with humor, including Kuwabara's victory dance and Hiei's tumble out of a tree ("What repulsive creature makes my ears bleed?!"). But the most hilarious scene involves the composed, dignified Kurama screaming "BAAAAAAAAA!" behind a jealous classmate, and pulling a funny face.
Yusuke has a lot of growth in this season, and not all of it is good -- sometimes he seems deeply overconfident and rather obnoxious, but he also shows a great deal of caring for his friends. And in one harrowing episode he is forced to kill another human to save others, which is little comfort to the young Spirit Detective. I'm not sure why killing humans is any different from killing demons, though.
And Kurama gets to show his intellect in a series of psychological games with a snotty psychic classmate, while Hiei turns out to have plenty of power and the "abandon" to use it, but also an ill-used ego to match. And Kuwabara again proves that he's a lot cleverer than he looks, giving Yusuke the final push to victory and helping charge through the House of Four Dimensions.
Poor Yusuke and friends. They never get a break of more than two or three days before another disaster pops up like a toadstool. And the third season of "Yu Yu Hakusho" is definitely no exception.

OK release if you're a casual fanDec 05, 2010
By madmax32 Like the other 3 season sets, this is a simple repackaging of the 2-disc re-releases of Yu Yu Hakusho from a few years ago- they have the same pros and cons.
Pros-
**The entire series is available in a space saving and affordable volumes
**More Episodes per disc, which is good if your watching the show in one long marathon
Cons-
**FUNimation screwed up the second opening for this release. The first ten episodes on discs 1 and 2 have the first opening, which is right, but on the last 4 episodes of disc 2 and all 14 episodes on discs 3 and 4 you'll only see the first opening for all 18 episodes on these discs. They should have the second opening.
**Video quality is questionable at times because of the number of episodes per disc.
Overall, these season set releases are good if you're not a hard core collector and just want the series in an affordable and efficient manor. Since FUNimation has just announced that Yu Yu Hakusho will be coming to blu-ray in March of 2011, here's hoping they go back to fix the opening/ending animation issues they've created with these releases, so that fans like me who worry about such things won't hesitate to pick it up. But for the more casual fans, who don't worry about such things, this DVD release should do just fine.

MeOct 18, 2008
By K. Reed This Series is great, and now it is getting into the most exciting seasons.
I most definately think you should buy SEASON 1,2,3, and 4 when it comes out.
This is one of the best series EVER created.
Yu Yu Hakusho Season 3Oct 13, 2011
By YOLANDA VARGAS
"Yolanda Vargas"
Hello everybody, I purchased and received Yu Yu Hakusho season 3 set fast, discs are in perfect condition, they play, sound, and look great. Each disc plays for over 2 hours, this series has an awesome mix of action drama, comedy, and a bit of romance. Yusuke Urameshi is the notorious but lovable wise acre, and fighter, he is joined by his friends Kuwabara, two demons Kurama, Heie, and others, together they are an awesome team. The Yu Yu Hakusho series has action from start to finish, I also bought seasons 1, 2 and 4 from another seller ( The cd exchange ) I am very happy and will be glued to the tv watching it for a few days
Still one of my favorite animesSep 04, 2011
By Amanda I still love this anime and wanted to have it in my own collection. If you remember watching this when you were younger, I will absolutely recommend watching it again. Just as good as the first time. :)
