"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!
It's the Dark Tournament.
In the middle round, Hiei faced the Tokuyukai Team's third challenger, the fire user Zeru!
He defeated him with a single blast of the kokuryu-ha wave from his Jao ensatsu-ken technique!
The next one to come forward was the nonsensical drunkard Chu.
At the other end, the Urameshi Team captain Yusuke finally awoke.
The battle between both team captains is about to begin!
The Drunken Warrior! Chu's Sui-ken
Let him have it, Chu!
Kill him! Kill him!
Die, Urameshi! Chu, don't you lose!
An incredible outcry! What extraordinary cheering!
It's almost as if my own voice is being drowned out,
but I will not be overcome, and will continue my commentary!
W- what could be the matter?
Contestant Chu's eyes have turned from the drunken appearance they had earlier,
and his gaze has changed to become sharp!
He doesn't look like any ordinary guy now, huh?
Y- yeah...
Nice eyes. I haven't seen eyes like yours in a long time.
This looks like it's going to be quite enjoyable!
It looks like Yusuke-kun is going to have his hands full.
You can tell?
Well, it's just intuition,
but somehow, I have a bad feeling about this.
Yusuke!
He's become a pupil of Master Genkan,
and has himself asked for training from her a second time...
And so, he should have been taught
more secret techniques based on Teihado.
Secret techniques? What on earth are they?
You'll know if you just watch!
What's this!?
You're casually eating potluck at a tense moment like this!?
I hereby confiscate it!
Koenma-sama, that's not very reasonable!
Quiet, you!
Begin the round!
This Yoki... I've never felt a Yoki like this before!
Urameshi Yusuke, can you keep up with my movements?
What!?
H- he's fast!
He moves like he's flowing!
It may be his own style, but he's wasting nothing!
That's going to be hard to pin down!
Chu has finally gotten down to business!
I can no longer see where Contestant Chu is!
Where in the world could he be!?
What swift movements!
You're mine!
He got five blows in!
I may be your commentator Koto,
but due to Contestant Chu's tremendous speed,
I was utterly unable to see what happened.
At the moment, I would like to ascertain Contestant Chu's movements once again,
via the electric scoreboard!
Oh, my! It appeared to be only one punch, but during that interval,
Contestant Chu managed to hammer him five times!
How fast Contestant Chu's techniques are!
Yusuke!
He's fast! There wasn't any time to fight back!
In contrast to how it looks on the outside, it's a polished technique.
You're mine!
Ups-a-daisy!
The fight is just starting!
He's dodging me by just a hair's breadth!
What's the matter with you!? Stop dancing so gracefully around him!
Dammit! How about this!?
He got him!
A- a ferocious attack! That was an elegant attack,
Ieaving no time to get any words in!
Contestant Urameshi all too suddenly crashed out of the ring!
He punched a hole in the stone fence! That was an awesome impact!
His kick was 10,000 times harder than Rinku's!
Hey, sweetheart, come here!
I can do better than this!
I will explain! As was stated earlier,
the Sui-ken technique becomes stronger the more you drink!
He's saying that at this level of intoxication,
he hasn't yet unleashed even half of his power-!
That's right!
Sakyo-san, have you had a look at the abilities of the Rokuyukai Team?
The first round is as good as won!
You know, we're hitting it off pretty good, huh?
We sure are!
Hey! What happened to the count!?
Oh, excuse me! I got all caught up after seeing that technique!
Now then, I will take a count!
1...
Hey, does Urameshi still have any power left?
Yusuke wouldn't let himself be beaten by that guy, right?
Well, that's certainly true... But he took that full-on!
5...
What's the matter, Urameshi!?
You want to see my reserve technique, don't you?
Are you finished, even before we finish warming up?
8...
9...
Oh, that was close, that was close!
If I hadn't guarded, I would be dead from that kick just now!
What's this!? He guarded with his arm, didn't he!?
He had me damn worried!
All right! Yusuke! Go!!
K- Keiko-chan!
A moment's lapse invites death, huh?
That is right.
And yet, why is it that this is so incredibly fun!?
It's the same for you, too?
Yeah, it is. I've got battle mania, as well.
Hearing that has gotten me all fired up!
The match continues!
What!? Why the hell did he shoot over there all of a sudden?
If his aim was just off, that's an absurd place for it to go, huh?
That just now was my specialty, the Tei-gun!
Apparently, four shots in one day is my limit.
I've got three shots left.
In exchange, its force increases the higher my spiritual energy goes.
W- what's this!?
Now it's Contestant Urameshi who is announcing his specialty technique!
This sportsmanship is leading them to being ridiculously honest!
I doubt this has ever happened since the tournament first began!
What are you, an idiot!? Don't you fall in with his drunken pace!
You really are an idiot, you know!
I've taken a fancy to you, you bastard!
Oh, no, no! While I was waiting, I drank an awful lot!
The sake is acting quickly!
This is as good enough a time as any.
Before our fight, I promised you that I'd show you my reserve technique...
D- don't tell me you're planning on doing that, Chu!
Not that secret technique...
Take a good look at my secret technique!
Just what on earth is his reserve technique?
They're attaching so much importance to it that it has to be quite a technique, right?
This is Onigoroshi, the strongest sake there is in the Demon Realm.
This stuff's strong!!
Oh, my! The drunken Contestant Chu
has pulled out what would appear to be some powerful alcohol!
Oh, dear! Contestant Chu is gulping it down!
What?
What is that? Something like a hundred-power vitality-nutrient drink?
That's not what it is, is it? What could it be?
I hope it's like the last technique.
That guy could be hiding tremendous power!
The entire stadium is being enveloped in Contestant Chu's colossal Teiki!
What is this?
What in the world is happening?
I can't tell at all.
Everyone in the stadium is holding their breaths as they watch!
Just what is Contestant Chu's secret technique?
W- what the-?
There he goes!
If he doesn't do that at least once, he can't raise his version up!
There's no helping him!
For the love of... he sure does act like a moron!
You idiot! How long are you going to stay tripped up!?
I just hate it when they go "uwaaaugh!"
Now I'm going to be mad if nothing happens!
Contestant Chu, are you okay?
Still, being completely wasted is Chu's true form!
Getting deeply drunk, along with using his Sui-ken technique,
is his ritual for calling his true self up to the Human Realm!
Dammit!
Shut up! A puny Yokai like you would do better to stay in the Human Realm!
Don't ever show yourself before us again!
What was that!?
That's enough of that!
This sake is nasty!
Who the hell are you!?
There's nothing decent about this place where the alcohol is so disgusting!
Kid, how about we say goodbye to this dismal place!?
You bastard, you're going to go against us!?
That's right!
It's starting to take effect!
Why, you drunken bastard! Die!!
This is fun!
That's right, Yusuke-san!
There's no way you can win against Chu, now that his Teiki is released!
Thanks a lot! You'll make someone a good bride some day!
You don't mean it! You're just being polite!
That hit the spot!
The Ki from the sake is fading away!
No, that unknown Yoki from earlier is merging with the Ki from the sake!
Yeah.
Is this what is meant by one's Sui-ken gets stronger the more one drinks?
And now, are we about to see the deepest secrets of the Sui-ken technique?
The master sorcerer Chu will now face you with his greatest techniques!
Oh, dear! This is mysterious! Using his own Yoki as if it were spun sugar,
he has begun forming something like a candy figure!
What is that!?
Master sorcerer...
That mysterious Yoki of his was there to heighten that ever-changing blend of spectral power and liquor?
He created an energy ball that looks just like the Tei-gun!
Its power seems to be just about the same, too!
You can tell even that!?
Urameshi, let's compare our powers! Here goes!
That's just what I wanted!
Their speeds are the same too!
Tei-gun!!
Oh! Both of their balls of energy have hit each other!
The balls are pushing each other! Which one's winning!?
They were even!
They both went to charge at each other at the same time they attacked!
Awesome! They're hitting each other without even thinking of blocking!
Both of them are trying to strike at the instant the other pulls back.
Whoever fails to hit the other will create a fatal opening for themselves.
So fast, so fast! I can't see them with my eyes!
There's no way to count how many punches both of them are throwing at each other!
This is bad!
Now!
It's huge! Chu is planning to settle this all at once!
They're releasing their Ki explosively as they fight!
If this drags on, not only does he lose the advantage, his damage will remain with him!
Yeah... Just because their powers are equal,
both of them aren't going to get out of this unharmed!
They're not going to get out of this unharmed!?
Take this, Urameshi!!
It's huge!
The Tei-gun is no match for that!
His position where he landed is wrong! He can't avoid it!
It's hopeless! He's going to get hit!
Yusuke!
It's no use! That attack has all of my spectral power packed within it!
It'll just swallow up your Tei-gun and slam into you!
He's all yours! Nobody can escape from Chu's energy ball!
Tei-gun!!
Tapid volley!!
What!?
Tapid volley!?
It went right through it!
But Chu's ball hasn't lost any power!
It'll hit him!
Both of them are hit!
Urameshi!
B- both of them are gone!
Where did they go!? Does this mean they were blown away!?
Both of them have disappeared! Did they both evade? Or could it be...
...they're out of the ring again!?
They're above us!
Both of them have jumped up!
However, it appears that both of them have taken the other's attack!
Their clothes are torn, and they're hurt all over!
Looks like you've shot three times, huh?
However, you released all of your Teiki in that attack,
and now, you're no different from any other ordinary human.
Am I wrong!?
I guess you're right...
The truth is, I'm all used up too.
T- they're laughing. They're hurt all over, yet they're laughing!
This is indeed battle mania! It goes beyond my own comprehension!
What are you doing!?
How can you be having a hard time against that guy!?
Neither one of them has any power left now.
Then it's a tie?
There's no such thing!
After all, the whole round hangs on this battle between captains!
However, we have to settle this one way or another.
Of course we do!
Yusuke and Chu have used up all of their spiritual power!
The final death match is now truly underway.
Is there any way left for Yusuke to defeat Chu?
I've used up all of my spiritual power during the fight up to now!
I can't use the Tei-gun any more.
What's the matter, Chu? You're pretty whipped too, aren't you?
Hey, it's too early for you to be worn out!
Our fight hasn't been decided yet, after all!
Next time: "Knife Edge Death Match"
The Other World's not watching for nothing!
As my heart is about to burst,
the mild wind that blows against us is gentle.
Facing each other, hand in hand,
the usual twilight envelops us, and melts away.
Isn't it funny? They're not even the slightest bit alike,
your smiling face, and mine. But right now,
it feels like I'm looking in a mirror.
I am not feeling sad; everything is fine, after all.
There, hiding within an offhanded greeting, lies a "thank you. "
Sayonara, bye bye, take care of yourself,
this is the line I'm drawing between us,
so catch it, if you would.
Sayonara, bye bye, take care of yourself.
