Nice moves from Sensui. I can't stop laughing when he fired the Rei gun even if Kuwabara is still there.

How Sniper uses his ability is just humorous now.

There is definitely a lack of consistency for the speed of characters, but perhaps they have gained speed in the likes of Bruce Lee rather than Usain Bolt.

"It's like I'm fighting a willow" Good description of Sensui's style.

Resshu-ken ha?? That's why Sensui is seen kicking the spirit ball like soccer in the OP.

Also, this is basically a soccer vs. football discourse.

Sniper, collecter of miscellenies like eraser crumb, dices, now marble balls. I guess in his last fight he will use his teeth as bullets.

Plus, an otaku who has the same hair and buys the same jacket as Kaneda, and has the same motorbike. Maybe his dad smashed his anime collection and now he wants to destroy the human race.

It would be much quicker to write everything in a piece of paper and tell Puu to fly it to them. See, Keiko is imcompetent as if it's in her genes.

How can Yuusuke fight back when arms are naturally shorter than legs.

I love Sensui so much!! First, he kicked his ball, not at Yuusuke, but to the apartment to stop the message.
Then he went off among the city's crowd to make pursuing him fukking harder, then lured the group into whatever locations beneficial for him.
All this is his plot to use himself as the decoy to abduct Kuwabara. So finally, he has eloped with Kuwa-chan, Yuusuke, you've lost yr wife.

Also, his fights offer the best close combat so far. Both brains and brawn. Talk little. Uncle long legs. What a fukking sexy guy!

one of the smoothest fights. Minimal dialogue, no Koenma + George (which I thought has been mostly annoying), quickly paced, things done in the background keep the fight dynamic. A few poor editing cuts hold it back its flow, however

This episode felt kind of drawn out, and the weight of the situation feels not entirely weighed correctly onto the viewer. This arc has not felt as emotional as the Dark Tournament; it almost felt like the creators got tired or bored. Anyway, uhh yeah Kuwabara got kidnapped + there was a sort of schoolyard brawl. Sniper is sort of doing the same stuff over and over.

Well fucking hell man Yuusuke stood no chance against Sensui, expected Yuusuke to be superior. Unfortunate, Kuwabara was kidnapped...

This episode was just annoying. Why are they not ganging up on him, this ain't the dark tournament. and why are they even following him instead of letting him fuck off and then go fight him 2 days later when everyone is rested and recovered. also why the sniper dude is shooting the girls from the other building when he can just literally walk 3 steps into their apartment and kill everyone in like 2 seconds lol.

also why is Keiko useless ass is in this arc. also wtf is the point of Puu i thought this mf was gonna grow or gain some powers or turn into a weapon or some shit the way they were hyping up that egg.


Togashi-san, i don't feel so good.

"Meanwhile you'll be...?"
"Permanently retiring his ass!"

Someone said that this arc is the worst one in the series but so far it's my favorite by a mile. Maybe it falls apart at the end. I hope not.

"Urameshi! If you kill me you are SO dead!"

Entire argument makes no sense if they allow Sensei too purse his plans then it be too late there's no guarantee that Sensui would allow them too rest.

I love anime characters that primarily fight with their legs, already cooler than Taguro in my book

This arc is so bad. The scales of powers don't match up with previous arc. The speeds of characters don't match up either. In the tournament, they were moving "faster than a human eye can see". In this arc, they can't catch a car driving below 100km/h. It's so fucking lame.

I kind of agree, but I don't mind the power creep as much as I mind the territory abilities. Every character has a proximity alarm go off in their brain the moment they step into someone's immediate vicinity, and it sucks the life out of certain interactions. The kid Kuwabara bumped into didn't need to have a territory, but he does anyway just so we know he's targeting him.

Sensui and the animation are making this arc worth watching, but the current conflict is a major step down from what we've already seen.

Where the heck did Genkai go? They were supposed to be together a short while ago! Maybe too old to catch up with them?

She got him back. If you understand the characters well enough, you'd know she did!

That kid truly took his time to tell them that Sensui was going after Kuwabara but didn't expect Botan to be so dumb to try to tell Yuusuke and the others from the balcony when there's the sniper guy and he is the reason they had to stay in that room in the first place lol also the lack of initiative from Kurama and Genkai was weird, like okay, let Yuusuke do everything even though he might not be able to. I think they barely reacted to Sensui attacking the room where Botan, the kid and Kuwabara's sister were supposed to be xD
The kidnapping scene was a bit funny. Where's Hiei and his convenient speed :p
