A delinquent's gotta do what he's gotta do...in the afterlife. Yusuke Urameshi was a tough teen delinquent until one selfless act changed his life...by ending it. When he died saving a little kid from a speeding car, the afterlife didn't know what to do with him, so it gave him a second chance at life. Now, Yusuke is a ghost with a mission, performing good deeds at the behest of Botan, the ferrywoman of the River Styx, and Koenma, the pacifier-sucking judge of the dead. The Dark Tournament is finally down to the wire. After a long trail of brutal bloodshed, the stage has been set for the ultimate showdown between Team Urameshi and Team Toguro. And now that Kurama can transform into a fox demon at will by drinking the potion from the Seed of De-Incarnation--a lovely parting gift from Suzuki, The Beautiful Fighter--his ferocious plants have been given a much-needed energy boost. Meanwhile, Sakyo reveals that his grand plan is to create a path between the demon plane and the human world, allowing powerful demons to come through and wreak havoc in the human realm. Could this be the beginning of the end for humans...?

Togashi outdoes himself.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
Yoshihiro Togashi, Yuyu Hakusho: Eat or Be Eaten (ViZ, 1992) [note: this review contains a major spoiler for volume 10. If you're not that far along in the series, DO NOT READ.] Finally, the finals! Yusuke's crew and Team Toguro finally meet up again, and Eat or Be Eaten covers the first three matches (well, two and a half). With Team Toguro never having revealed their fifth member and Team Urameshi having lost Genkai, the first third or so of the book is devoted to the mystery of who each team's fifth member will be. Maybe I'm slow on the uptake, but I found both revelations to be a complete surprise. After that, it's back to the fighting, which comes thick and fast in the Yuyu Hakusho tradition. Togashi, though, is never without a couple of tricks up his sleeve, and manages to keep things not only fast-paced, but interesting as well. The Hiei/Bui battle may be the best we've seen in the series to date. This is a good one. ****
