Ah, memories. Recca is not my favorite lead character by any means, but his power is amazing.

Fighting a stupid delinquent student
Introduction of a "Lovely" brown-haired female protagonist? -A dumb version of Keiko? No, she's more like fucking annoying Inoue-
Protagonist had a deadly car accident for saving kids at the first episode? Really?!

I hope I'm not watching the same damn thing I just finished.

It does kind of remind me of Yu Yu hakusho, But that show was alot better than this.

Also this is lot dumber than my 12(?) year old self thought. And the dub is terrible.

So........Yu Yu Hakusho with ninjas then? I'm down with that, considering I just finished Yu Yu Hakusho, I just hope it's not a COMPLETE carbon copy.

I kept seeing this anime on TV back in the days, but I never watched it. Also, I always mixed this up with Yu Yu Hakusho especially during this show's tournament arc.

Yanagi is cute. It'd be love at first sight for me as well. hehe

The story is fairly simple but it had some decent animated cuts in there.

My only real note for the story is

1:30 mins in: Pretty cool ninja thing, if this becomes magic high school imma be upset though

2:00 mins: God.. damn it.

The story was rushed here. The part where he awaken his power should have been done in the second episode. Instead more time should have been spend on showing around his normal routine.
Anyway, I love these type of adventure stories unlike the modern Shounen stories which are either copy of One Piece or Naruto. There is it's own feel of it.

I'm actually fine with a dumb version of Yu Yu Hakusho. We'll see if it stays fun for 42 episodes but this was a decent start.
