I liked this episode. It felt fast-paced. And you have to love the banter between Yusuke and Kuwabara.

That butler with the curly mustache looks exactly like Satotz from HxH, I wonder if that's just the kind of butler Togashi is into.

I vaguely remember the Toguro brothers but nothing about this arc rings a bell. Heh, that henchman had nothing on Byakko, go Kuwabara. I wonder how he'll react when he knows Hiei is involved, that'd be a riot. Also just realized Kuwabara's seiyuu is the same as Buggy from One Piece so now I'm laughing even harder at his good moments.

Yep, was just gonna say that the butler looked exactly like him!

Also, wow, didn't realise Buggy had that VA.. its such a distinct voice, I'm glad he has been able to continue for so long! And its even better with the fact that Koenma is the same VA that plays Luffy XD

Oh gosh, a generic rescue mission.

I knew that this arc was going to be equally boring as the previous.

The animation looked different here. Yuusukes eyes looked much bigger.

Didn't expect Yukina to be Hiel's sister. I guess Kuwabara just had a small crush on Botan because he quickly casts aside her for Yukina. I perosnally think Botan is way more Kawaii/pretty.

Finding out she's Hiei's sister was a definite surprise.

A VHS cassette, fuck I feel old now

The Koenma logo on the video, oh god my sides

The Toguro brothers appear, spooky. "We will make her cry", I can't wait for the "Your waifu is shit".

Wow, so Yukina is Hiei's sister? That was unexpected, he will kick ass to defend her, that's for sure.

I wish there had been some small stuff between arcs. Anyway, I loved the team watching the video and getting caught. The fact that it was on a VHS tape was a cool weird sort of underground thing. Everybody thought Yusuke was being so weird with it. I also liked the green guy at the end; he was a pushover, but he served his purpose in the show with a cool design. Nice to see quick fights.

LMAO KOENMA'S VIDEO!
I did not expect Yukina to be Hiei's sister! O: I choked on my water when I found out about them being related!
It seems that Kuwabara has a thing for blue haired chicks! lol

This is a great start to the arc! I can't wait to see what this arc has for us! ^o^

Yusuke and Kuwabara defeated the enemy that appeared at the end so easily that I even laughed.

Lol! That green Yokai even said nobody had lived after they saw his true form but was easily defeated by Kuwabara without effort!😂 That was lame.

I remember as a kid watching that scene where they killed the birds. I never realized it was painful to watch it. That was so cruel.

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

Fantastic introduction of the Toguro brothers. Right off the bat you get that younger is strong and ice cold but still basically rational and that elder is a mutant psycho that just wants to kill for fun. Having him crush a pair of birds is much more effective than having him kill a half dozen jobber soldiers or something.

I also really really really do enjoy the dub of this show. Just a casual "This place smells like ass!" from Yusuke and Tarugane doing a Marlin Brando impression calling Yukina a "little whore" really got me. The actors do still struggle with some Japanese names (Tarugane in particular is one they all have trouble with) but they didn't mush everything into awkward localization or leave it all as inaccessible babble to anyone without Japanese knowledge and they mostly get the Japanese terms relatively close.

This episode proves how goated this anime is. It's just really good anime in general, and the transition from arc to arc is seamless.
