YuYu Hakusho, Volume 5 by Yoshihiro Togashi
4.0

Yusuke and Co take on the 4 main demons to get the artifacts back.

This is kind of the first step into what Yu Yu Hakusho becomes. A battle shonen manga fully displayed here as Yusuke gets to show off his new abilities as does the rest of his crew. The fights are semi-simple in comparison to later ones or other manga, but they still have a sense of fun to them that is nice and not over-packed with so many super moves. I also really liked that the girls aren't showed as hopeless and can hold their own.

Overall, a solid action packed volume with plenty of cool moves to show off and quickly paced. A 4 out of 5.
