Description:
Survival is the order of the day as Yusuke and his allies face off against the worst that the Demon World has to offer. Locked into a competition set up by the criminal underground, more than the fighters’ lives are on the line as the Dark Tournament unfolds round by brutal round. Pain and suffering are redefined, a demon from the past is reawakened, and the mysterious masked fighter will step forth. Their situation is worse than grim as the Tournament Finals are set to begin.

Amazon.com:
Known as the "Toguro" or "Dark Tournament" Saga, the second season of the fantasy-adventure Yu Yu Hakusho, focuses on Team Urameshi's entry in the supernatural Dark Tournament, the demonic equivalent of a WWF tag-team smack down. Yusuke Urameshi abandons his duties as a "spirit detective" to lead his comrades Kuwabara, Kurama, Genkai, and Hiei, into battle. They fight a variety of bizarre, powerful demons in one-on-one matches. But what happens outside the Tournament Arena may prove more important. Yusuke finally hatches the "spirit egg" he acquired after his death a year earlier. Phuu, a creature who looks like a cross between a blue penguin and Ryo-Ohki in Tenchi Muyo, emerges from the glowing shell--a symbol of Yusuke's hidden kind heart. Knowing that Yusuke isn't strong enough to take on the Terminator-like Toguro, Genkai teaches him the "Spirit Wave Ball." Yusuke can't really handle that much power, and he suffers horribly as he struggles to master it. Having passed her ultimate technique on to her student, Genkai meets her destiny calmly. The season ends with the first match of the Tournament finals: Team Urameshi vs. Team Toguro. The outcome isn't really in question, but getting there will be more than half the fun. This season of Yu Yu Hakusho feels a lot like Dragon Ball, as the heroes and villains punch each other out of the arena, through walls, etc. Like Goku, Yusuke relishes nothing so much as a good fight: he and Jin the Wind-Tamer are delighted to find a worthy opponent in each other. The combination of camaraderie, slapstick comedy and no-holds-barred combat will appeal strongly to adolescent boys. (Rated TV PG, suitable for ages 12 and older: violence, grotesque imagery, profanity, alcohol and tobacco use.) --Charles Solomon

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - The fights continue on.
This one kicks off during the Dark Tournament, with Kuwabara battling Rinku. Yusuke is still asleep at ringside and the rest of his allies must continue fighting in the tournament. Or face death by the Toguro Brothers.

Yu Yu continues delivering on one of the things it does best, non stop action. Most of the fights are nothing short of brutal. I'm still amazed at the level of violence in this anime. But it's not just the violence that stands out, it's the characters. This is probably ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Another winning package.
Yu Yu Hakusho, my third favorite anime, is being released in these wonderful season sets just like DBZ. This box set makes brings the episode count up to half the entire series!

I'll start off by saying that the packaging hasn't changed from Season 1's box, which of course is predictable. This is a good thing, as the four discs are packed into two thin cases, making the set compact and versatile for space.

One particular flaw with the set appears in all these sets, unfortunately. ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Yu Yu Seasons!!
I really enjoyed this season. but I wish that they had finished the tournament, instead of stopping before the finals were over because there were still three fights to go!



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Fight or die
"Yu Yu Hakusho's" first season ended with Yusuke and his buddies coming to the Dark Tournament, determined to fight their way to the finals, and defeat Toguro's team.

So it's pretty clear what the second season consists of -- a string of one-on-one fights, with Yusuke and his buddies fighting a series of increasingly dangerous enemies. There's not a great deal of central plot beyond this, but the evolving powers of Team Urameshi -- as well as some cloak-and-dagger machinations -- keep things interesting. ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Season 2 AWESOME!
If you like two watch rounds of fighting this season is for you.
Yu Yu Hakusho is one of the best anime's out there right ow, and for this price you can't beat it.
