Yu☆Yu☆Hakusho "Battle Days" Bromide Prints

Yoshihiro Togashi Exhibition - Fukuoka Venue

Price: 660 yen

After the "Attention" Sticker Collection, a set of 3 bromides plus a photo mount, with Yusuke, Kuwabara, Hiei and Kurama illustrations, was announced on the Puzzle Official Site. This is another exclusive merch that will be sold at the Fukuoka Venue.

The mount surface is a mix of the end of chapter 91, after Yusuke sees Genkai being killed, and Kurama, Hiei and Kuwabara's faces from the opening of chapter 78.

The first bromide is part of the opening of chapter 77. They just removed Toguro.

The second bromide is the opening of chapter 130. I like this illustration so much, because Hiei is wearing shorts and Kurama's hair is tied back in a ponytail. Please, have a look at Kurama & Hiei Fashion Variation from the Yu Yu Hakusho Official Characters Book.

Finally, the third bromide is the famous group photo from the last chapter.

I think my favorite aspect of the Dark Tournament is the High Stakes behind it!

Like Chapter Black is my favorite arc of YYH BUT I can't deny how amazing of an arc the Dark Tournament Arc is, especially with its place in anime history.

But getting back to what I said before; I really like how high in tension this arc is for all the good guys involved, ESPECIALLY compared to other anime.

Like unlike other Tournament Arcs, the other characters' lives weren't at stake if they didn't compete. For example; in Naruto, if he didn't compete in the Chunin Exams, Naruto wouldn't die if he didn't compete. In Dragon Ball, Goku's life wasn't in stake if he didn't compete in the World Martial Arts Tournament. In One Piece, if Luffy didn't compete in the Dressrosa Tournament, he wouldn't lose his life BUT in Yu Yu Hakusho; Yusuke and Co. were pretty much forced into fighting in the Dark Tournament and if they didn't, not only would THEY die but any and everyone they KNOW. NOT everyone they care about but everyone they KNOW. For Yusuke, he'd lose his Mom, Keiko, Mr. Takenaka and etc. For Kuwabara, he'd lose his sister and parents. For Hiei, he'd lose Yukina and Kurama would lose his human family.

What I'm trying to say is the Dark Tournament is a DAMN GREAT ARC!!

Hiei is such a fucking bastard!

(Spoilers for episodes 57 and 58! If you haven’t already seen those eps, scroll away! I will be talking about one specific fight during the dark tournament.)

So I’ve been rewatching YYH and I love the dark tournament as a whole and Yusuke vs Younger Toguro is the GOAT. I will stand by that till my dying breath.

But can we talk about Hiei vs Bui for a minute???

Cuz for basically the whole fight, Hiei is talking mad shit to Bui!

Bui is trying to cut this little shrimp down, his his giant, deadly axe, and all Hiei does for a hot minute is dodge and say something along the lines of

“I know I’m a small target but can you at least TRY to hit me please??”

This 4’10 flaming chihuahua is mouthing off to the 9 foot tall Dark Souls Boss monster.

And he’s having the time of his life!

People always think of Hiei as this overly serious guy with no sense of humor and is probably incapable of understanding/telling jokes

I refute that idea wholeheartedly!

I believe from the bottom of my soul that Hiei would laugh at a dark joke and people tripping in horror movies purely because the second be takes of his arm bandage to let out his Dragon of the Darkness Flame, he’s laughing at Bui, he’s taunting him, and he’s just over all being a little shit towards Bui

There’s even a point during the fight where he just lets Bui beat him up a bit

Literally after THIS punch ☝️

Hiei’s only reaction (in the dub) is “Nice…”

To which this is Bui’s immediate response

And again, Hiei just lets it happen.

Doesn’t dodge, doesn’t fight back, doesn’t react.

He just lets him “throw a tantrum like a toddler in a therapy session”, as Koto put it.

And once he does fight back, he wins almost effortlessly!

And then he low key struts like a peacock for a minute!

I know people interpret Hiei refusing to kill Bui off as a show of respect/character growth. I do too! But here’s the thing…in the dub specifically, it sounds like Hiei isn’t just refusing to kill him because he’d maybe like to fight him again at some point…he sounds like a punk teenager telling the loser he just beat the shit out of that he not only won, but won effortlessly and therefore he doesn’t have to listen to Bui at all.

Hell, for most of the fight, Hiei’s acting like he knew he was gonna win even before he stepped into the ring.

The only time he genuinely seemed surprised was when Bui redirected his dragon at him.

Hiei really said “I won from the start” and just dragged out the fight for 2 episodes cuz he wanted to 🤣

I love this little gremlin bastard so much!
