| THIS IS A MANGA ONLY DISCUSSION POST. ---------------------------------------- Well Genkai Dying right when everything ended sure makes the manga more official for the ending, That was a massive amount of land she owned. Well the manga and Anime sure have their difference's in the art department some more evident than others..But I really enjoyed this manga until next time.. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| The last 20 or so chapters seemed pretty random. I liked how they are trying to have the human world and spirit world coexist peacefully. But wasn't Genkai already dead before? Oh well. The series was still pretty good. |
| Good series overall. Really loved the Dark Tournament arc and the amount of action present in this series with the action. Kinda agreed about the last few chapters being a bit different from the majority of the series but still tolerable. Only some parts of the series I found weak were the comedy as I was never into that but this was quite a fun experience. |

Only some parts of the series I found weak were the comedy as I was never into that but this was quite a fun experience. Conversely, the comedy is perhaps my favorite thing about this series, after the characters (& I still love the main cast, that much hasn't changed at least). Saved a lot of a chapters from just being a boring slog to read through. Like the last few chapters could've been. Anyway, after saying that neither the Dark Tournament & Chapter Black arcs don't hold up from what I remember, it's nice to be able to say that the Three Kings arc is just as good as I remember. Which is to say, not that good. It has good moments but there are lots of flaws here & the anime's final episode is about 1,000 times better than the manga. Honestly, when compared to the anime or Togashi's other works (namely Hunter x Hunter), this manga just doesn't hold up. It's a relatively quick read, especially when compared to other battle shonens. On it's own though, it's still a decent read. I had a fun time revisiting Yu Yu Hakusho more often than not & even though it's not a strong as I remembered, doesn't mean it doesn't have it's strengths. 7/10. |
| The anime ending was more romantic. I was expecting a kiss. =[ Mukuru's back story was fuvcked up. So, she was a sex slave of her father? If Mukuru was serious in the tournament she could win it all, but she lacked of motivation. Hei's gift for Mukuru's was sweet, I can't believe he did that for her. I've watched the anime multiple times when I was a kid and after reading the manga I've noticed some plot holes. Obviously Togashi didn't plan ahead and the art was inconsistent. The early volumes were boring, just a gag-SoL with supernatural element. It started to get interesting after Togoru was introduced. The demon world arc was better in anime since they skipped a lots of fights. Togashi probably was just lazy or whatsoever. 7/10 (should be 6 but im generous) |
| I just finished the manga for the second time and I liked it a lot more than the first time. My favourite thing is definitely the characters. They are all very fleshed out and feel human, which makes them very likeable. I love the early part and also these last chapters. They're all about the characters and has an overall "nice" atmosphere to them. I don't think the end is bad in any way, even though it is a bit rushed. But that is all understandable considering how Togashi felt at the time, and I think he did as well he could. The best part of the manga though is the second half of the Dark Tournament arc and the Chapter Black arc. Overall, I don't think this manga really has anything that is outright bad. Some things could have been better, but that goes with everything. The length is helpful as it doesn't go on for to long, as many manga of this kind often do. |
| I'm glad Togashi got to end it on his own terms. The ending was fairly rushed, but we can at least SEE the ideas he wanted to explore; at least they made it in there. He knew what he wanted and figured the rest out as he went along. Ending it here is better than having it drag on, so I applaud him for being aware of his limits. While the execution was a struggle, the characters and the ideas are what stand out. I don't regret this experience. oh dang, also?? It's interesting to note how I was more aware of Kurama's cruelty and Hiei's sweetness in the manga than the anime. Loved that. |

| Rushed, but still holding enough finality to be an effective enough finale. Overall I found the Three Kings lacking, especially in compression to the two story arcs that preceded it. The anime fleshed out some bits about this arc, but I liked the extended epilogue the manga gave us. All and all I loved this manga. I loved the Dark Tournament and Chapter Black quite a bit, but the arcs that both proceeded and followed weren't all that lacking in quality either. I found the characters charming, and when Togashi really tried, I found his art spectacular. An example of almost everything I look for in a battle manga, and a title I can see myself rereading time and time again. |
| Anime ending was better, either way this shit was super rushed. Only thing i'm afraid of is HxH getting a rushed ending like this. I'm throwing hands if Togashi does that shit. |

| I actually kind of liked this ending. It's a nice change of pace from other battle manga, where the final volume is basically one big fight and the last chapter is a rushed roll credits scene, where all the important characters get a two line bio about their future (although this did that too). Anyway, this was alright. It wasn't nearly as good as people made it out to be. |
| This series was a mishmash of ideas that obviously weren't thought out ahead of time, which really shouldn't have worked as well as they did, occasionally getting a glimpse of what almost feels like a masterpiece. All the arcs had a different vibe to them to the point where they didn't really flow into each other, but at the same time kinda did. Everyone's already said this was rushed at the end, and I agree, but I also felt like the whole series was kinda rushed. Like a giant series condensed into a smaller, but still substantial series. It's as if this was all a really good prototype to a magnum opus, and if HxH delivers on that I'll understand all the hype. As a more direct comment to these final few chapters, quite liked this extended epilogue. In these battle series, downtime between/after fights is extremely underrated. |

| Great series. Mixed emotions about the ending definitely. I mean, it's not a bad ending in and of itself, but the events following up to it besides Genkais death don't make sense for it to be an ending. I'm sure Togashi could have given us a great ending if he wasn't so exhausted writing. Anyways I still really like this series a lot. |
