  • Yusuke fights Gin in what is one of the best fights of the series.

    Once Gin is on the ground Yusuke has the greater speed advantage and after some time lands a blow to the stomach. Gin flies up to recover only to have a Spirit Gun fired at him. Gin deflects it with a big tornado. He now makes a tornado around his arm and goes at Yusuke. Yusuke tries to fire his Spirit Gun point blank but Gin deflects it upwards with his tornado (saving both their lives according to Heie). Gin then uses a double tornado and flies towards Yusuke. He gets in the Spirit Wave pose and braces for Gin's attack.moreless

    The fight between Yusuke and Jin is really exciting. It is mainly because Jin is a very friendly and funny charcter. But what really makes it exciting is that he is not only very friendly he is very powerful and dangerous. His wind techniques really prove that people are right for calling him a wind "master". Even though Jin and Yusuke are at a total even state going punch for punch they are still continuing to have a great time, and that alone is what makes this episode really unique and fun to watch. Plus all the fighting and the funny things jin does.moreless

    It is time for Yusuke to fight again! And this time he will be going up against the Shinobi Master of Wind, Jin.

    When the fight starts you can tell that the two fighters have a lot in common. They are both carefree and both fight for the pure enjoyment of it. But when the fight starts it revealed that Jin can use his wind manipulation to let him fly, and this makes it almost impossible for Yusuke to land a blow.

    The fight continues like this for a while, with Jin hovering high above the stadium and dive-bombing Yusuke, who is unable to counter. Finally, Yusuke takes a stance his has never used before. He starts glowing and readies himself to take on the Tornado Fists!

    This is a really great episode with some really cool action and fighting.moreless

    This episode is about Yusuke taking on jin.........

    The episode begins with yusuke laughing at jinn after he says some really fast words. The fight begins! Yusuke finds it hard to hit jinn since he can fly up in the air. The fight takes a tough turn for yusuke as jinn makes things even more tough by using his flying techniques. Yusuke's only chance is to use the spirit wave!

    Overall, this was a great episode with a great new character that anyone could find hilarious. The action was great, and a new technique is revealed, which pretty much makes things far more interesting........moreless

    With the battle between Jin and Yusuke commencing, Jin immediately makes use of his special ability to fly. Yusuke is unable to reach him, but takes advantage of Jin's cockyness of staying on the ground. After realizing it was a stupid idea to challenge a faster person one on one on the ground and float atop the air, Yusuke fires a spirit gun. Jin however, creates a wall of air to redirect the attack. Jin goes down to attack Yusuke again, but Yusuke takes a risky approach in firing his spirit gun to create a giant explosion. It was a matter of who can endure better. However, Jin does something to counter Yusuke's tactic, and initiates his ultimate move; two thunder fists. Yusuke decides to experiment with a technique he just learned recently.

    All the previous fights in Yu Yu Hakusho are pretty drawn out and sometimes unexciting. Not all of them though. This was, like most of the others, take up an entire episode, but isn't really as boring as some other ones. In fact, I'd say it's the best so far (still nothing compared to the fights in Chapter Black and Three Kings). Lighting fast punching is what made Dragonball Z popular, and that glory is finally spilled onto Yu Yu Hakusho. It's about time I say.moreless

    • Botan: Listen Ms. Koto, why don't you stop the sadist routine and do your job! Koto: Excuse me? Botan: Jin's been out of the ring for half of the fight, did it ever cross your mind to count to ten? Koto: Article 4: Fighters are outside the ring when any part of their body comes in contact with any solid surface other than the ring itself, and air is not solid. Stick to what you're good at honey, like dying your hair unnatural colors for instance. Edit
    • Jin: (about Yusuke) Took a punch straight in the face just for a chance to kick me. He's a crazy rat for sure. Edit
    • Botan: What's wrong Kurama, are you all right? Kurama: Just laughing, it seems you don't know brothers very well, Botan. Edit
