Feels good to be back! Hopefully you all peeped the message at 2:39 but if not, 2024 is going to be a big year for Bonsai Pop. We have 21 more videos picked and scheduled for the rest of the year including many "Insane Stories Of ---" (We know you guys like those) As far as where we've been? You're gunna have to check out the Bonsai POPcast and/or join the patreon for the full story. Again, we can't overstate how important the patreon is, and how dedicated we are to it. There are few to no other creators out there that give as much as we do for our patrons, let alone spend as much time as we do with them. The POPcast Premium is an additional weekly podcast for our second tier patrons that's much more personal and "inside baseball" as far as we and the channel are concerned. Without the support of the proud and the few who join the community we wouldn't be here, and without additional help we simply can't put out as much content as we'd like (or you would like, we assume.) We do our best to be the creators we want to see, so when we need editors we pay them as much as we can, fairly. That's unfortunately uncommon in this industry. Part of joining the patreon is supporting skilled workers and artists who are often taken advantage of. You can also join for free. You won't have access to tiered posts, but you will get updates. All we ask is that you check it out. Thanks to everyone who was patient with us and special thanks to everyone who showed up right away today to help support this first video back. You're good people. TTYS, -Mike

Modern retellings are too obsessed with getting to the action without realizing the reasoning behind those scenes and the journey along the way there is what matters the most to make a story good.

I sorta agree. I think live action focuses on action beats as that's what nostalgia fans "want to see". But in doing so, forget to let new viewers understand why we love Yusuke and the gang. My point is, show creators want to hit all the "cool moments" as that's what fans remember, without most people actually sitting with and remembering why we cared.

Baccano is the answer. The anime got cut short. Most of the characters are American or European. Minimal special effects mostly involving explosions and fake blood. Most of the Light Novels' stories can be adapted into a single hour long streaming episode.

For those more familiar with Dragonball, imagine if they started with Kid Goku meeting Bulma, then immediately jump forward to the Red Ribbon Army in Episode 2, then have Vegeta and Nappa show up in episode 3, followed by Frieza in Episode 4 and Majin Boo in episode 5. That's how smooshed together this was.

The fact that they decided to make Yusuke's school uniform color the normal school color at his junior high school told me from the start that the writers/directors didn't care about the minor details that made this series great. They skipped over so many things... Yusuke didn't give a shit about following the rules.

THANK YOU. I honestly thought I was trapped in some alternate universe when YYHLA came out and it just had an avalanche of praise, even from long-time die-hard fans (many of whom I also respect). Outside of cool choreography I can't think of any redeeming factor in this weird speed-run abortion of an adaptation. Also, missed opportunity to say "Yu Yu Haku-NO" after your script's question of "Is This Still Yu Yu Hakusho?".

I didn't realize how much I liked Yu Yu Hakusho until I watched the first episode of this... adaption and realized I'd never been more personally offended by the existance of a piece of media. Its one of those stories that is so defiantly different that changing any part of it makes it less good. Like Wonderwoman, or the Addams family. I had to go back and watch the anime. Yusuke's funeral f*cking still makes me cry so hard. It deserves to be thrown in the abyss with The Adaptation of Which We Do Not Speak (atleast that one kept the story beats)

I don't know why they went up to the end of Dark Tournament. 5 hours just isn't enough. I originally wrote that they should've just gone up to the end of the first Toguro fight and rescue Yukina but the more I wrote, the more I realized that even the first 25 episodes was too much. Really, things should've ended with the 4 Saint Beasts. And it's fits perfectly. We see Yusuke resurrected, we get his encounters with Gouki, showing Yusuke isn't just a good fighter but he's smart, able to think out a clever way to win against a stronger fighter (shooting Gouki in the mouth when he realized he could never get through the tough skin). We see how kind he is and willing to sacrifice with Kurama and he cares for Keiko, which we see with his fight against Hiei (and again, being clever with the mirror). The tournament with Genkai introduces us to her and it buffs him up. Then we get the gang all together, for 4 Saint Beasts. Yusuke brings along his rival Kuwabara along with Kurama and Hiei, 3 enemies now turned allies. We get to see them fight and they put it all on the line to save the city from the 4 Saint Beasts. Perfect! Yes, we don't get the favorite parts from the anime, the Toguro Brothers and Dark Tournament, but fans would much rather have it done competently than haphazardly. And saving that for S2 would be better. It gives it more time, plus rescuing Yukina is perfect for the first part of S2. We see Yusuke and Kawabara just clean up demons, showing that they're way above most normal enemies. It gives weight to the strength of the Toguro brothers.

I've seen the first episode so far, and I *love* the action scenes. The focus on the horror elements was an inspired idea. Honestly, I would have been down for a season of Monster-of-the-week stuff, with Yusuke, Kuwabara, and Botan tracking down low-level demons, including Kurama and Hiei, culminating with Genkai's tournament/training. With season 2 rolling in hot with the Yukina/Togoro Arcs

I agree with just about everything you said here but I did still enjoy it. It was a mashed mess but I think the way they mashed it made sense for how very very little time they had to do it in. I went into it already with that in mind though so I enjoyed what we were able to get. But ultimately, yeah this series should have either been given more episodes or not been made to include so much of the shows plot in just 5 episodes. I think it was clear the cast and crew love the source material and were severely kneecapped by time restraints

I was super excited for a live action YYH. I was even more hype when I saw a couple of the trailers that came out. And even though I dislike watching things in sub I was willing. Then I heard how short it was and how much they tried to cram in. Instantly my interest fell threw the floor. Also my ears perked up when I heard about Gundam being looked at. Loved the series. It can be a little silly, but I feel the main message of just how insanely bad war is out ways how silly newtypes can be in some of the later shows/movies.

They need drag queens to take care of the wigs because those Kurama wigs had me rethinking if he is truly my favorite character. Yusuke and Kuwabara were the best casting in my opinion. They shot themselves in the foot by not making Rando the main villain. I feel they could have re imagined him into a great villain. Instead they took away one of the best season “Dark Tournament “.

Netflix got my hopes up after I really enjoyed the One Piece live action, and yikes…. For the most part, I didn’t like the Yu-Yu Hakusho live action. If I had never seen the anime, then MAYBE I would have liked it more, but… 🤷🏻‍♂️ The fights in the live action were good/fun, and I did like some characters. But overall - it felt like a rushed mess of a series. Most, if not all, of the emotional beats were not really there, in my opinion. But hey - if some people really liked it, then that’s great! For me, I don’t see myself ever going back to watch this adaptation. At least I can always go back to watch the anime whenever I want :)

YuYu Hakusho is still to this day one of my favorite shonen anime of all time with hands down the absolute best tournament arc (Flame of Recca also has a top tier tournament arc but I digress). The point still stands, a lot of people will be missing out on a masterpiece in character driven action based story telling because they felt this hollow garbage was worth their time.

Definitely agree with you. In my opinion I don't think it was really their fault making it this bad. I think the five episode limit with no guarantee of a second season is really what killed it. With a restraint like that and having to remake an action show with little action in the beginning of the show, I understand the need to get to the good stuff quickly (The Dark Tournament). I think their heart was in the right place, but without the plot and character set up, the show lost it's soul and was reduced to a "Bat in the Sun" type of production. Focusing mostly on cool characters in cool fight scenes.

I found this to be fine, I was watching and reading the manga before coming into YuYu Hakusho live action. I gave it an 8/10 and I would say the same thing to the Saint Seiya live action which I gave that a 7/10. Speaking of Saint Seiya I hope to see more from that on Saint Seiya on your channel, your video on Saint Seiya is the reason why I got into Saint Seiya. But on topic I do prefer the manga and anime over the live action.

Yu Yu Hakusho was a HUGE hit in Brasil during the 90s and it's still remembered very fondly by my generation (along with Saint Seiya). It's a shame that the adaptation didn't live up to the manga and anime's reputation 😢

Any time someone describes something as "decent", you know you're not talking to someone who knows what's what.

Feels awesome to see you guys back and with a YYH live action video at that which I think the fights were the only good/decent things about it but everything else was awful

I watched the live action. It was fun & condensed it well, did some great things speeding it up. However, I agree, people should watch the original, Dubbed! And then watch this.

It’s the only way my mom will ever take in the show. Just like I know she’ll never watch 700 episodes of Naruto, this is a compacted simplified version. The anime will always be for fans but on a scale of 1- Dragonball this is pretty god damn good.

28:14 hold up. Did they just combine Sakyo and sensui's motivations. Why?

The most egregious error they made, at least in my opinion, was that Yusuke offered HALF his life... WTF? The fact that he was willing to throw everything away, instinctively, even, showed that there was MUCH more to him beneath the surface. This just seemed like a cop-out to me.
