The first two Eizou Hakusho OVA episodes were a clip show series recapping and summarizing some of the key fights in the Dark Tournament arc of Yu Yu Hakusho. These four OVA episodes are... a bit more interesting. Each of these episodes is themed around one of the four main characters: Yusuke Kuwabara Kurama and Hiei and each episode is composed of a series of music videos sung by the characters themselves sometimes in groups. Writing: That said theres not really much to say storywise here. Theres not a whole of continuity you can pull from a series of music videos... its more about developing characters which were already fairly welldeveloped in the original series a little bit further. And these episodes do accomplish that. If you havent seen the series you wont likely be able to figure out what its about from these episodes alone but you might get a gist of the characters and their unique personalities. Art: In terms of artwork these OVAs do go a little farther than the main series did. Mind the general style of the artwork of the animation is the same as that in the original series which has become a little bit dated... but most music videos are stylized by nature and these are no exception. The artists had plenty of fun playing with camera angles and dynamic effects to match the songs better and the end result is pretty nice. There are even a few videos where the art style changes almost completely such as Kuwabaras opening song which is about the sweetest thing ever and that does enhance the feel of the shorts. Sound: Now this is the most important thing about the OVAs... I mentioned it in my first Eizou Hakusho review and just from hearing what the series is about you may have guessed that there is no dub here. As fun as it would be to hear Justin Cook and Chris Sabat attempt a duet thats aiming a little high and I can understand why it wasnt worth the cost so this series is Japaneseonly. Even so its fun to hear the Japanese voice actors all singing in character and theres no shortage of songsat least four for each character and many of them cross over Yusuke and Kuwabara have a duet Kurama and Hiei have multiple and theres at least one song involving the entire cast so any diehard fans of the Japanese dub are liable to orgasm while the rest of us still have a pretty good time jivin to the shorts. While drama CDs and seiyuu singing incharacter isnt that uncommon on the islands we dont often see that kind of material released in the West so its a treat to have it readily available... and to have fullyanimated videos for each number is pretty awesome too. You wont find a whole lot of series which have gone so far to please their fanbase as Yu Yu Hakusho has demonstrated and for that I applaud this OVA series. Definitely a mustsee for anyone who enjoys the Japanese version and still a fun worthwhile watch for those who are more familiar with the English.
