"Yu Yu Hakusho"
In a crowded city, as I bump shoulders, I'm all alone.
On an endless prairie, as the wind whistles by, I'm all alone.
Which one is it that makes me want to cry more, I wonder.
Marking it with twin circles, I feel a bit more grown-up!
It must be, that when I run into these terribly difficult walls,
And unexpectedly, for whatever reason,
The courage and power to break through rises up from within,
All because of how, when I run into these terribly difficult people,
They show me kindness, I bet!
Thank you very much!
At Koenma's order,
Yusuke and Kuwabara stole their way into Tarukane Gonzo's mansion,
where they tackled a band of Yokai.
Then, after a fierce battle, they finally defeated the Toguro brothers.
They succeeded in rescuing Hiei's sister, Yukina,
from humans whose hands were filthy from money and greed.
Invitees to the Dark Tournament
Wait!
You're going, no matter what?
The Ice Maidens have a practice of not living outside of the Land of Glaciers.
Thank you, Kazuma-san. Really...
Hey, Kuwabara-san has suddenly gotten quiet, don't you think?
500 yen says he's under the influence of a movie.
Nope! 500 yen says he was jilted by a woman.
Kirishima, you got it right!
Hey, hey, he wasn't actually jilted, right?
The girl did go home to that Land of the Glaciers place, didn't she?
Isn't that nice, though? The ultimate long-distance love affair!
--Kuwabara-san! --Please, wait up!
Kuwabara....
Well, this time around,
it looks like he got left with a bad taste in his mouth, huh?
Same goes for Hiei, after all.
He didn't tell Yukina-chan that she was his sister, right?
No.
Are you going to let her go like this?
You're sure you're okay with not telling her you're her brother?
Yukina doesn't know me.
There's no need for her to know me from here on, either.
We had different mothers in the first place.
Still, you searched so long for her, right?
I'm a man who was once on the Spirit Realm's wanted list.
Do you think she would be delighted to know that she had a brother like that?
I'll be fine just watching over her from the shadows.
Did you, by any chance, get that Jagan just to find her?
Nonsense.
Still, it's all right! Hiei didn't kill Tarukane.
It wouldn't have mattered that it was to save his sister.
If he had killed a human-
I was this close to having to order you to arrest Hiei.
Me, arrest Hiei?
Yeah. They squabbled about it quite a bit in the Spirit Realm.
About whether or not they should tell Hiei that Yukina-chan was being imprisoned.
That's the reason we took the way out of having Hiei deliver that tape.
And leave it up to chance whether he watched it or not?
That's not even funny!
Well, for a little while,
it doesn't appear you'll have any orders, so take it easy!
So long!
Hey!
Yusuke!
You're late!
...and so, this mission too has been completed safely.
Mm-hmm, good work.
However, for a time, I was really worried what would happen.
I was genuinely resentful of you, Koenma,
for making Yusuke and Kuwabara fight such a strong opponent!
Hey, I knew from the beginning
that Yusuke and Kuwabara's powers had increased.
Would I put my dear Yusuke through something like that?
I should have known! You foresaw everything, huh?
Koenma-sama, what shall I do with the funeral clothes
and memorial offering you had prepared?
What's this?
I- I was just preparing for the worst, that's all...
Koenma-Sama!!
It's okay, isn't it? They won, after all...
Koenma-sama! Something terrible has happened! The Toguro brothers...!
This video was sent from our agents.
What's the matter?
Please, watch!
Ups-a-daisy...
W- what's this!? How can this be!?
Be quiet.
Good work, Toguro brothers. That was a marvelous performance.
My ears are sharp.
All it took was for me to listen to their strategy and then make use of it.
Losing on purpose builds up more stress than I thought.
By the way, are you sure it was all right to let that girl get away?
She was an important commodity,
as far as the trade routes Tarukane was secretly selling to, right?
It does not matter.
Compared to the grand enterprise I'm about to undertake,
she will have no more value than pebbles along the shore.
I'm relieved to hear that.
In that case, I have a favor to ask of you, my true employer.
I would like to fight those two once again in a martial arts tournament.
This time, seriously.
I intended to do so from the beginning.
After all, those two are to be important guests
at the upcoming Dark Tournament.
You're not very amiable either.
Getting those two to fight with us was your real objective in this, wasn't it?
You're sharp. So, what are your impressions, having fought them?
That one was named Urameshi, right? The one who was shooting?
He will get stronger- the more you hit him.
Don't let yourself get tripped up. The tournament is in two weeks.
Ah, one more thing. Dispose of that trash up there for me.
I'm ruined!
Koenma-sama! By "tournament," don't tell me he meant...
They intend to invite Yusuke and the others as guests to the tournament, huh?
If so, what will happen?
Hey, are you still expecting me to hang around with you?
What are you talking about, after doing only this much?
After we're done shopping, we're going to have some cake,
and then we're going to Disneyland.
Disneyland!?
Right!
That is, unless I run away...
Where are you going?
N- nowhere...
Maybe you were trying to leave me behind, like you did last time.
S- shall we go to Disneyland, then?
Thank you very much.
It's too dangerous! Please stand back!
I wonder what happened.
Let's go see!
Ah! Yusuke!
It's too dangerous! Please do not get any closer!
It's too dangerous! Stand back, stand back!
What?
Yusuke...
Who are you?
Have you forgotten me already?
I guess I don't make much of an impression.
Y- you're...!
What's the matter?
You look as though you've been enchanted by a fox.
You... It can't be! I was certain, back then, you were...!
Come with me. We have to talk.
You wouldn't want to lose your cute girlfriend, would you?
What's this?
Keiko-chan!
No Trespassing
Appearing as if I had been beaten was, in fact, just an act.
Well, that's all over now.
What I have to say is something personal-
that is, a private matter between us as men, I suppose.
Enough of this vain chatter!
Get to the point, already!
Are you scared of me?
Don't be ridiculous!
Quit putting up this useless brave front.
Your instincts fear me.
Knowing an opponent's true fears is a part of one's strength.
You are strong! You can be much, much stronger.
That is why I have decided to show this to you now- the real me!
When I fought you, I was at about 20 percent, I suppose.
And now, this...
This is about 60 percent...
Were you too scared to even run away?
Two months from now, somewhere,
there will be a martial arts tournament held.
Martial arts tournament?
It's a tournament where the rich and the powerful people,
who use the underworld to manipulate things behind the scenes,
gather themselves, and those among them who are confident that they are the strongest
will participate in teams of five members, fighting until one of them is dead.
The humans participate in it for the money and the amusement,
and the Yokai, for the blood and the hedonism.
You and Kuwabara will be the guests of this Dark Tournament.
If you decline, I will kill you right here.
Become stronger, like your life depended on it.
Winning is the only way for you to survive.
M- my legs are like rubber... I couldn't even move...
Damn it all...!
Damn it all!
A- awesome...
Judging from your expressions,
it would seem you have heard the news from your agents.
I'm going to have you two participate in the Dark Tournament as well.
You will be members of Urameshi's team, of course.
The horrific Dark Tournament...?
Once you've sided yourselves with humans,
you can never disassociate yourselves from them.
Choose your fifth member on your own.
Find yourselves the strongest ally you can.
How are our chances?
We'll see...
So, you've finally come?
You're wearing a bit more positive face now, I'll bet.
It's useless, no matter how many times we do this.
This time, I'm not going to show you any mercy.
You're entering the tournament then, no matter what?
Yeah.
Hiei thought of you as human, and held back on you.
My training will be even tougher than Hiei's. Will that be okay?
I don't care! Make me stronger!
Understood. Now then...
How was that!? Did it hurt!?
If you want to get stronger, then keep up with me for all you're worth!
I want to become stronger. As much as I can in two months!
Damn it to hell...!
And so, two months went by.
I've been anxiously waiting for this day!
Not only do we get to openly run around in our true forms-
-if we win, then whatever we want, we will be free to take!
We're the ones who are going to win!
If you value your lives, go home now, while you can!
You're going to take back every word of that!
You know something, it reeks of humans!
Have they come just to be eaten up?
That Urameshi bastard sure is late! What the hell is he doing?
The final member hasn't been chosen either.
Never mind worrying over others, how are you?
Have you gotten the least bit better?
You'll just have to look forward to seeing me!
I'm gonna win my way through this tournament,
and get my name spread throughout the underworld!
That'll keep any Yokai from ever getting close to Yukina-san again!
All of you who 'ave gathered, it is just about time for us to set sail.
H- hey, pops, wait a little bit longer! One of the guests is late!
There is a rule that in such an event, 'e is considered to 'ave fled,
and an assassin will be sent after 'im.
Hey! Sorry, sorry!
Sorry to keep you waiting.
Why, you! You're late, Urameshi!
Urameshi?
He defeated Rando and Suzaku?
If we defeat that guy, our reputations will rise right away!
I'm worn out all over my body, you know!
Hey, you're staggering there, aren't you? Are you okay?
Yusuke...
What's this?
What the hell are they doing?
T- they're fast! It's all I can do to follow them with my eyes!
That was a pretty hazardous greeting, huh?
I don't know what you did where up to now,
but it appears you've become a bit more capable.
A bit, he says? He's gotten outrageously stronger, don't you know!
It's all right. If you were able to follow their movements just now,
then you've grown quite a bit too.
By the way, don't tell me that runt over there is our fifth member, is he?
What!? This guy? You mean this isn't some ornamental raccoon?
Hey, hey, you're sure about this, now?
Relax! That's our strongest ally around.
I'm still not convinced...
Who cares? Just me and Yusuke alone will be enough.
So then, everyone, we set sail!
Having taken on Yokai, who seek blood and are full of ambition,
the boat finally departs.
Their destination is Kubikukuri Island, a solitary isle deep at sea.
It is the grounds for the Dark Tournament.
What sort of battles are waiting for Yusuke and the others there?
At last, we've departed for the grounds of the Dark Tournament, on Kubikukuri Island.
However, the brutal Yokai are after blood, and if we drop our guard even a little bit,
then forget what will happen to us on the island,
we'll lose our lives here on the boat!
Toguro is waiting for me on the island.
I can't let myself be done in until I've beaten him to a pulp!
Next time: "Departure of Death! To the Island of Hell"
The Other World's not watching for nothing!
The second hand is sharp again tonight, as it chops up time,
Chi chi chi...
I'll never be able to finish this homework, so I toss it away!
Son of a gun!
It's the dreams that tumble away, oh,
That are the ones I want to go after,
And if I stop, they will get away, oh,
So I can't ease up on them!
It's the dreams that tumble away, oh...
