the full bodied animation when Yusuke was dodging the Splinter technique was gorgeously detailed and realistic

That 3D head effect when Senbu switched to Kazuya personality was cool.

Yusuke Vs. Sensui is already my favorite fight for this anime. It beats Toguro fight as far as production levels and thrills are concerned!

Multiple personalities? Interesting, because Sensui first personality was a bad Representative of his true power. The second incarnation hasn't shown any fighting abilties, other than a powerful dense ki gun shot.

Toguro would be a bad match-up for these 2 personalities of Sensui so far.

Sensui is right that Yusuke spirit power is higher than his and also his physical power. Toguro could of won against Yusuke so easily, if he dodges Yusuke spirit gun attacks and yes, Toguro has display super human speed with his giant body.

Psychogun, ho!

I'm not sure how I feel about the weaknesses of the plot in this arc, but what never disappoints in this anime are the references (Seiya Urameshi), and the trying-to-reach-out-for-more animation. During the Dark Tournament, I liked all the visual experimentations, but since the 6th cour, it's really following through in the animation department too (like during the fight with the Doctor). The Sansui/Urameshi interaction in this episode was just totally impressive.

For a moment when Yusuke was giving multiple punches to Sensui, I was thinking of Luffy's Gattling Gun. Awesome fight. Now, time to see what can Koenma can do if he will remove his pacifier.

Yusuke dodging those shots was awesome and his torn shirt idea was certainly clever. But woah Sensui snapping was a complete mind blow. Kazuya reminds me a bit of Hisoka from HxH. I wonder if he was inspired by a combination of Toguro and Sensui. Going back to Sensui's flashback though, it was pretty disturbing seeing those extra bits with the demon being ground up and those demon girls cowering in fear.

Fighting dirty was a decent way for Yusuke to throw Shinobu Sensui off guard, though one would think his shirt would already be stained with sufficient sweat and blood to be wet enough without the need of taking a sudden dip.

It seems that Koenma's pacifier is a source of power rather than an object that held him back like I initially imagined.

This is waaay better than the Toguro fight. I love how even after all this time, Yusuke's street fighting roots still show.

And damn, Yusuke's really taking a gruesome beating.

Didn't expect 7 personalities, interesting. Sensui must have really been broken by his past.

The best defence is a good offence.
And when he jumped into the lake.

Sensui is involuntarily becoming Yuusuke's teacher

I don't know how I feel about the seven personalities, but I do love Kazuya. How he shot Yusuke down was brutal. Can he even fight anymore, I can't imagine he could... That being the case will Koenma take the show?

I'll hold any harsh judgement until after the fight is done, because 1. it isn't inherently a bad thing and 2. last time I was disappointed in this arc with game master the show slapped me in the face and proved me wrong. Fights strengths apart from this change have followed through, being just as good as last episode.

7 personalities is next level of batshit crazy.

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron

possibly the best episode yet. Wow theres strategic in fights and the animation is crazy good. Sensui is schizophrenic that is something I have never seen before in an anime fight was far as I remember. This fight is seriously good holy. Lets see what koenma can do.

Not sure what I thought about this one again. I don't like that the relationship between Sensui and Yusuke seems to play out very similarly to Toguro and Yusuke's enemy/teacher thing. It also seems like Yusuke is almost learning the same stuff to an extent (though I guess we have him learning techniques now instead of learning to unleash his full power to protect his friends). I'm still thinking about Sensui saying that Yusuke was so much better than him, then saying that their skill/training was the difference, then getting pummeled but being fine. His multiple personalities thing is okay. Kazuya turning his hand into a gun was odd, but the design works out (better than the Sensui design which I felt was kind of whatever). It's certainly heating up a bit.

Well, the fight was rather equally matched until the other personality came out. Goddamn 7 personalities though, what a self-defense mechanism. Koenma's timing was great, he saved Yuusuke, though Yuusuke is horribly beaten up, literally multiple holes in his body...

Won't lie to you, I nearly lost my shit when Sensui busted out the sung note. So out of nowhere, a great introduction to one of his many personalities.

That gun arm asspull nearly killed the show for me. I swear this writer just can’t help himself when he’s got a good thing going. No other human following “the rules of this show’s plot” can literally change their arm into a gun for fucks sake man why lol

Its likely that his left arm is a prosthetic. Maybe he fought something strong enough to cut/rip his arm off once.

he got spirit shanked with a gun

the multiple personality twist was kinda dead...
also seems pretty inconsistent that Kuwabara's sword could cut through dimensions but not out of that yokai subspace, but I guess it has to be that way for plot reasons.

Man Yusuke dodging all those blasts was pretty sick I'm not gonna lie. I liked his ingenuity with the shirt it really added to the fight and also Sensui has split personalities that's made things interesting for sure. God Yusuke is taking such a pounding in this episode something fierce. Otherwise great from I can see.

Multiple personalities always has been and always will be a terrible lame-ass cliche. Even for a series from the 90s when it was less worn-out I can't stop myself from groaning any time it comes up. Elder Toguro at least ate/infested the other people that were in his body.

I don't think I like this multiple-personality twist. I agree, it is cliche! Oh well! I'll just focus this time on what Koenma has under his sleeve.

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