The Flawed Genius of YuYu Hakusho ft. Kae Savar

YuYu Hakusho is 90s anime at its best, an epic exploration of the limits of the medium at the time. From iconic voicework, gorgeous color pallets, and outstanding direction, YuYu Hakusho stands above its peers at the time in its execution. Written by the same mangaka that would go on to write Hunter x Hunter, he nevertheless chose to cut the run of YuYu Hakusho short for a devastating reason, one which we dive into at the end of the episode. YYH is chocked full of nostalgia and amazing fights, and still managed to find the time to invent Being Bisexual.
