Yoshihiro Togashi

Kuwabara's been kidnapped! Unbeknownst to anyone--especially him--his aura sword is so powerful it can actually cut holes between dimensions, which is exactly what his kidnapper Sensui is after. But Yusuke's not giving up so easily and sets off in pursuit on a bicycle. Then Yusuke and his old friends and new allies are put to the test when they battle a bratty little kid in a deadly video game contest! From trivia to battle tennis, the contest heats up! Who will come out on top and who will face the dreaded "Game Over"?

When Kuwabara learns the truth about Genkai's demise, he takes the news hard, wondering why Yusuke waited so long to tell him. Then the elder Toguro reappears and taunts the team about Genkai's death! It's not a good idea to tease those experiencing great sorrow--a lesson the elder Toguro quickly learns, but not from the one you'd expect to teach him. Then it's the match you've all been waiting for--Yusuke vs. younger Toguro! Witness fisticuffs the likes of which you've never before seen! Toguro powers up to 80 percent full fighting capacity and emits an aura so toxic it melts the weakest of the demons watching the tournament--and that's just the beginning!

Yusuke's new after-school job is working for Botan and Koenma, bringing in renegade demons. But when three demons - a soul-devouring ogre, a shape-shifter, and the deadly Hiei of the Thousand Eyes - escape to the human world with evil artifacts, Yusuke's job turns into a trial by fire.

They call themselves the Black Book Club: a consortium of billionaires who gained their wealth and power by dealing with evil demons. One of them has kidnapped a beautiful ice spirit named Yukina, tormenting her for the sake of her priceless crystal tears. Can the law-abiding entities of the Underworld tolerate this depravity? Of course not! That's why Yusuke, teenage delinquent and part-time Underworld Detective, has been dispatched to rescue Yukina and break up the Black Book Club. Fighting alongside Yusuke is his friend and rival Kuwabara, who has fallen in love at first sight with Yukina. But if Kuwabara knew her family connections, he might not be so hot for the ice maiden. And Yukina's kidnapper isn't about to give her up without a fight. To destroy Yusuke and Kuwabara, he's hired nothing less than the Brokers of Darkness, demons so powerful that even the Underworld fears them. Yusuke and his friends are about to find themselves in the center of a demonic battle royale...

After the epic struggle to close the tunnel to the demon plane, Yusuke and the gang take some hard-earned time off. It's still a busy year, and Hiei and Kurama both spend time training and taking care of some loose ends from their pasts. Meanwhile, Yusuke trains with Raizen and ends up in charge of the old demon's domain! The other kings of the underworld won't stand for this state of affairs for long, so Yusuke proposes a new tournament, and the winner will be king of the demon plane!

Dr. Ichigaki's ultimate biological weapons are in the ring, but Team Urameshi is suddenly having a severe attack of conscience. After Kuwabara's enlightening reverie about how Dr. Ichigaki implanted blood-slaver nodes in the brains of Master Mitamura's martial-arts students, Yusuke and company just don't have the heart to conduct their demon-slaying business as usual.

Hunters are a special breed, dedicated to tracking down treasures, magical beasts, and even other people. But such pursuits require a license, and less than one in a hundred thousand can pass the grueling qualification exam. Those who do pass gain access to restricted areas, amazing stores of information, and the right to call themselves Hunters.

Itsuki locks the others away in a separate dimension so Yusuke and Sensui can fight undisturbed. Under intense pressure, Sensui's real personality, suppressed for so long, starts to come out. Then Koenma shows up and things really start to get hot, forcing Yusuke to resort to desperate measures to draw their enemies out. Kuwabara and the rest of the crew escape Itsuki's clutches and plunge into the Demon Plane after Sensui. Meanwhile, the Underworld special defense force goes looking for Yusuke. What secret do they know about Yusuke that is enough to sign his death warrant?

Yusuke Urameshi was a tough teen delinquent until one selfless act changed his life... by ending it. When he died saving a little kid from a speeding car, the afterlife didn't know what to do with him, so it gave him a second chance at life. Now, Yusuke is a ghost with a mission, performing good deeds at the behest of Botan, the spirit guide of the dead, and Koenma, her pacifier-sucking boss from the "other side." But what strange things await him on the borderline between life and death?

The final volume of Yoshihiro Togashi's legendary fighting manga! The tournament to decide the ruler of the Demon Plane reaches its final rounds and you won't believe who comes out on top. But Yusuke and the gang still have a few loose ends to tie up, as they have to make sure the denizens of the Underworld don't get too far out of line. Later, everyone heads out to the countryside to hear a final message from Genkai. And then…

Hunters are dedicated to tracking down treasures, magical beasts, and other men, but to become a hunter, less than one in a hundred thousand are capable of passing the grueling qualification exams.

After Yusuke Urameshi grounds a "flighty" Jin for good, Team Urameshi should be one step closer to victory. But thanks (more like no thanks) to a pervading conspiracy among the organizers of the Dark Tournament, Team Urameshi's plate is wiped clean of soldiers left to fight in the twisted event. Meanwhile, Genkai formally reveals herself to Yusuke and gives him the final test to be the sole heir to her formidable technique - a concentrated ball of aura! But due to the conditions surrounding his "second life," Yusuke must be ready and able to inherit the technique - or he dies!

"The time has come for the Hunter Association to choose a new chairman, but it's shaping up to be anything but a clean election. While the world's Hunters descend into dirty politics, Gon remains hospitalized in critical condition. Killua knows of a way to save him, but it will mean facing his deadly family of assassins...and the deadliest and strangest of them all, Killua's little sibling Alluka..."--
