01x11 - Yusuke Kurusen! Kizudarake Hangeki

[bunniefuu]

"Yu Yu Hakusho"

In a crowded city,
as I bump shoulders, I'm all alone.

On an endless prairie, as the
wind whistles by, I'm all alone.

Which one is it that makes
me want to cry more, I wonder.

Marking it with twin circles,
I feel a bit more grown-up!

It must be, that when I run
into these terribly difficult walls,

and unexpectedly, for whatever reason,

The courage and power to
break through rises up from within,

All because of how, when I run
into these terribly difficult people,

they show me kindness, I bet!

Thank you very much!

Urameshi Yusuke has entered Master
Genkai's Successor of Secrets Tournament.

In the quarterfinals, Kazemaru,
Shorin, and Kuwabara have won.

With the martial artist
Kibano as his opponent,

Yusuke finds himself
engaged in an unexpectedly

hard-fought battle in the darkness!

Does Yusuke indeed
have a chance for victory?

Oh, no!

Daiwan-kobakusho!

"Yusuke's Hard Battle! A Bruised
and Bloodied Counterattack"

Has Yusuke been done in!?

It's over.

Urameshi Yusuke, wasn't it?
Are you finished?

Yusuke! What are you doing!?

Get up! Get up! Fight back, would you!?

It's not over yet!

h*, your reflexes and
toughness of body surprise me.

A moment sooner and you would have
avoided me hitting any critical points.

However, it appears you've
had just about enough.

The fighting energy I sense from
you has gotten considerably smaller.

It's impossible for Yusuke now!

Don't let him get the
better of you, Urameshi!

Still, this is quite strange.

The more he's pushed, the more that
kid's Reiki swells with power...

Once that guys starts his attack, even
if I could see him, I couldn't avoid it!

Isn't there some kind of way that I could
figure out where he is? Some kind of...

That's it!

Without being able to see me, and with the
damage you've taken, you'd be better off...

...being defeated soon!

--I've got you!
--What!?

I'll snap off the bone and sever your
muscles! I'm gonna break your arm!

All right, Urameshi!
Go with everything you've got!

That's a pretty good idea, but I'm the
man who has mastered all forms of combat.

Throwing techniques are
one of my specialties!

Zanto-senpugeki!

Zanto-senpugeki
"Chopping Throw Whirlwind Attack"

Apart, he's unable to see his
opponent, and once grabbed,

there are those incredible
throwing techniques!

There's nothing he can do like this!

The only way Yusuke can beat him
now is by sh**ting his Rei-g*n!

But he only gets that chance once per day!

Not being able to tell where his opponent
is, there's no way he can use it!

Kid! Unless you are extremely prepared,

you will be unable to fight your way
out of this life-threatening pinch!

Urameshi, get up, would you!?
Come on! Are you that short on nerve!?

How about it? Have you just
about decided to give up?

Like I told you, by cutting
off my own sensory organs,

I am able to more keenly seek out
the whereabouts of my opponent.

In this darkness, so long as
you rely on your eyes and ears,

it is impossible for you to beat me!

Don't make me laugh!
I will be the one that wins here!

You set forth with one more
attack, and you'll be finished!

It's taking all his effort
just to stand up now,

it's unlikely he has any
power to attack with...

Drop the strong front. You've fought
enough. That should satisfy you, right?

Are you scared? If so,
I can take it from here!

Kid...

Fine, if that's how badly you want to die!

Brace yourself!

I don't know what he's got up his sleeve,

but as long as he doesn't know
where I am, it's all the same!

Where are you looking?

I'm over here!

--Urameshi!
--Yusuke!

Take this!

I can see right through you!

Rei-g*n!!

He did it!

H- how did you know the exact
location I was attacking from?

Before you snuff it, take a look at your belly.

What? The flame of a cigarette?

T- this is how you knew where I was?

That's right! It's the cigarette
the old lady tossed away.

I found it, and before you tossed me
around, I stuck it inside your belt.

I then used it as my mark to sh**t at!

Y- you what!?

That tough gi and iron mask of
yours proved to be your downfall!

H- how grievous!

The victor is Urameshi!

That was close, that was close!

You're quite the crafty one!

You were just making use of everything
around you in the current situation, right?

I guess so.

So then, what was that
Rei-g*n thing just then?

A Reiki g*n! A bit like your
Reiki sword there, Kuwabara.

I get a sword and you get a firearm?
That's a bit unfair, isn't it?

Now, now, Yusuke is an official
Spirit Realm Detective, after all!

Okay, Kuwa-chan?

We will now begin the semifinals!

The first match will be
Kazemaru vs. Urameshi!

I was getting tired of waiting!

What!? But I just barely got
done fighting, didn't I!?

The order is entirely
decided by the lot you drew.

This was your destiny.

Urameshi! You're pretty unlucky
when it comes to drawing lots!

Do we have to fight in the
dark over there again!?

No. For the semifinals,
we will change locations.

Come with me!

I've fired my Rei-g*n and all,
and my body's all battered up...

I've got to fight here under
the worst of conditions!

That's right, your next
opponent could be Rando.

Oh, yeah! Leave me and Kuwabara out,
and only those other two are left!

In other words, either Shorin
or Kazemaru has to be Rando!

Okay, we're here.

What is this, a marshland?

This is the site of an ancient b*ttlefield.

Many soldiers met with tragic deaths here.

Troubled spirits wander around here as
if they were piled on top of each other.

I can see things I don't want to
see even more clearly than before!

Why did I ever come here!?

This place has the strongest spiritual
power of anywhere on this mountain.

It is the place most suitable for you to make
use of your spiritual powers while fighting!

Indeed. I can certainly feel the
power rapidly permeating within me!

What about you?

It's no use! I can sure
feel my power returning,

but there's not enough Reiki
left for me to sh**t my Rei-g*n!

If this opponent is the Yokai Rando,

and he hasn't shown his true powers yet,
then there's no way I can beat him!

Semifinal first match, begin!

To have to fight consecutively, you
really are an unlucky guy. I sympathize.

What!?

However, in the world of these matches,

catching breaks and
having luck are essential.

The higher your spirit is, the more
you can call upon your good fortune.

Any way you look at it, Yusuke is
at a disadvantage in this fight.

If Yusuke is beaten here,

then my standing for making him a
Spirit Realm Detective will be...

This isn't good...

Koenma-sama, Koenma-sama!

What is it, already!?

You have a telephone call.

This isn't the time!

"Hello. Koenma is currently
out on important business."

"Those who have business with him,

please record it onto
this answering machine."

"He will call you back later. Beep!"

This is Yama! Where are you off
wandering around at this hour!?

Great King Yama...!

H- he hung up...

This is your fault.

T- that can't be!
You're the one who hung up...

You hush! If it's your fault, it's your fault!

Please, be quiet! It has started already!

What did you say!? Right now I'm--

It surprises me that there is someone
other than myself that can sh**t Reiki.

It appears you don't even have
enough power left to do that.

One blow... The only chance I
have is to counter with one blow!

It would be more than enough for me to
defeat you now with my bare hands...

What!?

--Yusuke!
--He's no more than a sandbag like this!

It's hopeless! He doesn't have enough
power left to fight back or to duck!

I'll put you out of your misery right now!

Now!

I missed!?

W- what?

So close!

You still had that kind of punch left in you?

I can't get too close to you carelessly.

In that case,
I too will reveal my secret weapon!

What!? "Shuriken" throwing-stars!?

Hmph! We'll see if you
can avoid my shuriken!

Don't toy with me! No matter
how roughed up I may be...

...there's no reason
I can't just dodge those!

What's the matter!?

Is that all you've got, standing
there with your arms casually folded!?

Are you finished!?

It's not that easy.

Wha--?

Yusuke!

The shuriken are coming behind you!

What!?

The shuriken are heading toward
me as if they were alive!

Those shuriken respond to your Reiki,
and are drawn to it. In other words,

until they hit their target,
they will continue to pursue it!

I know!

Come on!

That did it!

Those shuriken contain
expl*sives that react on impact!

Even if you avoid them using
obstacles like you just did,

you can't avoid taking their damage!

You're all out of options!

--Yusuke!
--What the hell is he supposed to do?

So, this is the end, even for that kid?

Don't be absurd, you hag!

This Kazemaru, or whoever, is pretty strong.

Could it be that this is Rando?

If so, can Yusuke possibly defeat him now?

It's no use! If I take one more shot
like that, I won't even be able to stand!

It's no use! If I take one more shot
like that, I won't even be able to stand!

Is there no longer any
chance left for me to win?

Still, if he is Rando, I have to see this
through and not allow myself to lose!

Y- you idiot!
What are you coming this way for!?

Don't take it the wrong way!

I'm leaving the rest...

...up to you!

Urameshi is running in a
straight line towards Kazemaru!

Don't tell me he's...!

The kid has seen that
there's no way for him to win,

so he's decided to take
Kazemaru out with him!

He's what!? Urameshi!
You dumbass! Stop it! Don't give up!

Yusuke!

Preparing an honorable death, are you?

Have you forgotten I have my Reiki blasts!?

I'm not gonna punch out alone!
You're coming with me!

Miserable fool!
You're going to die trying! Take this!

W- what!?

He vanished!

T- that's impossible!

Now I've done it!

W- where the hell did he go...?

Urameshi's disappeared!

Yusuke! Where are you!?

Hey, Urameshi! Where are you at!?

Has Urameshi learned any techniques
to make him momentarily disappear?

He shouldn't have any such technique.

So then, what,
has he become an invisible man!?

W- what's this?

You goof, hiding out in a place like this!

I wasn't hiding! I fell in!

You fell in!? You mean you weren't
counting on doing that just now?

What just now?

That.

Can it be that I just won?

Kazemaru must have been surprised
at you suddenly disappearing, kid,

and it threw off the
timing of his Reiki blast.

Truly a chance victory.

It means that Urameshi Yusuke was
the one who had luck as an ally.

U- unbelievable!

I could say the same.

You sure are one ridiculously tenacious man!

So it seems.

The victor is Urameshi!

Even so, apparently Kazemaru
is not the Yokai Rando, huh?

After all, with him
having lost consciousness,

I don't feel any Yoki coming from him.

Well, all that's left is...

Shorin is Rando?

So then, we will begin the
semifinal second round now!

The fight will be Kuwabara vs. Shorin.

It is a tournament to decide the successor
of secrets worthy of the abilities displayed.

Already, Kibano, Kazemaru,
Musashi, Kuroda, and Chinpo

have been removed,
and only three remain.

Is this Shorin really
the fearsome Yokai Rando,

who has already defeated 99
other spiritual practitioners?

Now, the true identity of this
man is about to make itself known!

The battle between Kuwabara and
Shorin has begun! Is this Rando?

If so, he's being overcome, isn't he?

If that's Rando,
this shouldn't be happening!

Just what exactly is he up to?

What kind of technique is that!?

Look out! Get out of there, Kuwabara!

Next time: "Rando Appears!
Kuwabara's Grievous Defeat"

The Other World's not watching for nothing!

The second hand is sharp
again tonight, as it chops up time,

Chi chi chi...

I'll never be able to finish
this homework, so I toss it away!

Son of a g*n!

It's the dreams that tumble away, oh,

That are the ones I want to go after,

And if I stop, they will get away, oh,

So I can't ease up on them!

It's the dreams that tumble away, oh...!
