Summary: I know im gonna like it! by Joey L. Abdullah
Review: The voices, the freakin' voices, they are so horrible. The original voices are awesome, why did they change to these new crappy ones. I love the Yu Yu Hakusho episodes, but this movie just can't live up to the show's greatness. It started with a great concept, but the voices combined with what ended up being an incredibly corny script totally ruined it.

Summary: Good but not as good as the series.
Review: First of all the animation was fantastic.The plot was good, but the movie is'nt as good as the series. The voices were really bad (they made me laugh the first time I heard them), and the music was compleatly different but..., I'm not complaining. I suggest to watch it in Japanese though. But, if you're looking for any humor...the movie lacks it. I did like the plot of the series better. I also like the English series voices better but the movie was made long before the series aired in the U.S. All in all 3 stars, no better. But if you're a YYH fan you should watch this!

Summary: Bad attempt at yu yu hakusho
Review: I love the show yu yu hakusho.. and i was really looking forward to the movie... then i watched it and it wasnt anything special... all the voices are different which makes it hard to follow whos speaking if the voice comes from off screen... second they changed the animation which made it look dumb... the bad guys are really stupid and dont last very long... they set the movie up so that it seems like its after yusuke defeated tugoro yet yusuke cant use his giant spirit gun and is weak as ever... i strongly reccomend renting this movie before buying it.. im glad i did.... also the final fight isnt very good... its all a bunch of running around occasionally throwing punches... but its good to watch just for the experience i suppose thats about it.

Review: This movie was done in 1994, 2 years after the series is still on tv in japan. This movie is very old and was liscenced WAY before Funimation got its nasty grubby hands on it and ruined it with lousy voice actors that screw it up right now. I personaly like the original japanese versions beter any day. But Manga entertainment did a very good job with matching the japanese actors voices for this one. I dont know what everyone else is talking about. The animation was great and its told a very good storyline that was diferent from the regular run of the mill spirit dective lingo. It was cool to see the fighting and some of the concern from the characters who saw their loved ones get their butts kicked. Hiei was my favorite in all of this. I'm just glad they got the DVD version which I personaly enjoy more. I bought this film a long time ago in VHS and i'm just glad I can finaly enojoy the original voices as well as this other one.
