Yoshihiro Togashi, Yuyu Hakusho: Knife-Edge Death Match (ViZ, 2002) Yusuke and the crew have made it into the Dark Tournament, and as we left the crew in the last episode, Rinku and Kurabawa had just finished their math by knocking each other out of bounds... or is the match truly finished? After the gang finishes their first match, the Tournament goes on, and Yusuke's group leanrs what we already know-- their old adversaries Team Toguro survived the battle at the Black Book Club and are back for more. (You know where this is going, yes?) Togashi carries on the Dark Tournament storyline with style, flair, and nonstop action. Not terribly much in the way of character development, but we already know all the principals, so that's forgivable. ****
