Synopsis of Yu Yu Hakusho Live-action
A series based on the legendary manga by Yoshihiro Togashi, originally published in 1990 and over four years in Shueisha’s Weekly Shonen Jump. The story revolves around Yusuke Urameshi, who spends his days getting into fights and dies in an accident while trying to protect a child. When he realizes that he is looking at his own corpse, a woman named Botan appears, who describes herself as a guide from the spirit world. She reveals a shocking truth: no one expected a delinquent like Yusuke to die doing a good deed, and as such, there was no place for him in either heaven or hell. Thus, Yusuke is granted the opportunity to be resurrected and, upon passing his test, becomes an underworld detective, delving into a world of humans, spirits and demons.
