I disagree, it's something that could definitely be used at your advantage, but whatever

Next ep looks like they'll fight the Dr, which i doubt is stronger than Toguro

I think you can get used to it. For example if you passed threw a street where everyone is talking would you go mad?

Funny ep, anyway the bad guy looks freaking menacing. I mean, Toguro looked like a a total bull, a dangerous one, but this guys is downright creepy.

Seems like this new set of villains are more stronger than Toguro's team.

I wonder what the codename for that psychic would be out of the seven brought up, but I'm guessing it is Gate Keeper.

It would be interesting if Kuwabara was the one out of Yusuke's friends who would be suitable as the second psychic needed by the dark crew, especially now that he has lost much of his abilities for some unforeseen reason.

They don't have to have their territories up 24/7, he can just turn it off when it's a pain in the ass

This is a pretty interesting arc now but are the 7 bad guys humans with superpowers or demons? Like that eraser had demonic energy put into it so demons but the preview showed that the doctor might have obtained superpowers. IM CONFUSED ASF.

We now have a hands-in-the-pockets dandy, a punk with hair and face just like Rukawa Kaede. And since we're in the hospital and one of the 7 is nicknamed "Doctor" so there's bound to be an evil physician here.

The joke about the girl wanting to get it on with her homeroom teacher is maybe the best joke of this anime,

Yes, that is hyped for some eps now, how he suddenly lost his power and we have not been given the definite answer, in spite of how many times that topic is brought up. The one Botan gives "You used them up in the Tournament" is obviously too naive to be true.

What's more, you want to cut the net? Kuwabara has a spirit knife there for you. So very possible. Hope Kuwabara can be further developed cuz he is the least valuable player in the last tournament.

That episode was great! This arc has the most natural story progression so far, it's made sense(a little silly at times but still) and the fights have been good! The new approach to thinking fights through and using everybodies powers to find leads as well as help in fights seems awesome. Also I like how the groups are made, really unusual formations from how this show normally is : Yusuke, Genkai, Kido, Yanagisawa, (kinda mind control guy now) and Kurama, Kaito, Botan and Kuwabara. I'm sure we'll get some really unique dynamics with them.

Really happy with the direction this arc is going, nothing outrageous has happened just yet and the normal Yuyu charm pertains!

Who wouldn't want to read a lewd girl's mind? xD

This one big final arc I think it is.. Actually pretty interesting
It's like watching Jojo part 4 all over again

Lol, the part with the girl.

This arc is managing to stay interesting.

this arc does have some potential.. The tournament arc was a let down so here's me hoping that this will be better.

This episode was kind of weird, like the pacing I guess. I liked it though; it felt natural, sort of unpretentious. It was interesting to have the bad guy shoot an eraser at the new mind-reading guy. The bad guy's group makes me think of Metal Gear Solid or some other video game.

Ah, I was hoping there'd be a scene like this, Yuusuke showing how absurdly powerful he is, that was so awesome, haha. Well, the enemies seem to be rather powerful, that's interesting.

So far this new arc is progressing naturally. I'm liking this aspect of combining the Detective stuff in the first season and the action of the second season so it isn't just fight, fight, fight all the time and it's literally a case of building the world by learning more about the new opponents that Yusuke and co have as well as keeping the pace fast and intense in terms of how the fights go. I generally thought that Murota got struck with a laser beam but I guess if it had been just that I think he well and truly would've been dead. But having said thing that struck him be an unexpected object like an eraser? That's a pretty unique way to injure someone I'll have to admit. Damn Sensui's tactic wasn't to face Yusuke's group head on, it was more or less to distract them.

Man he's just downright creepy compared to Toguro. It was pretty funny when Murota read that lewd girl's thoughts and then have Yusuke and Genkai pummel him for doing so though. XD

The villain looks similar to Akio from Utena. Though YYH came first, so maybe Utena used his design as inspiration.

Thank God it was just an eraser. I was sure he was dead on the spot the moment he was hit on the head. Everyone would assume that was a bullet or a beam! He would be a waste of character if he died.

I had a moment of fun about that schoolgirl joke. Haha!

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

This is the type of episode that should have been more common instead of the whole Dark Tournament arc, some well build up about the menace the new bad guy could be for Yuusuke.
