Yu Yu Hakusho - "Smile Bomb" (Opening) | ENGLISH ver | AmaLee

[@AlmightyKanyeShrug]

Friend of mine died late December 2016. This was his favorite anime, so this song can really hit at home, lyrically too. Thank you for the wonderful cover.

[@Nessbuo]

I am sorry for your loss

[@ModernXShinobi]

Your friend is a spirit detective now.

[@ShinobiYoshimasa]

Sorry about your friend. My condolence. He sounded like a cool guy.

[@mr.chaosvicious5968]

Maybe your friend is a Spirit World,Spirit Detective now. One that is making Koenma pull all of his hair out. And giving him an even bigger hassle and aneurysm that what Yusuke Urameshi did when he was Spirit Detective,just for laughs.😁 But if he is actually a Spirit Detective now. I am sure that he is actually a DAMN good one though,despite him giving Koenma so much trouble.

I just started watching the show and I just thought it was a character that was yet to be introduced

[@xercesxix]

Nah. It stood out a bunch cause of hair color.

[@ThePhenomenalEX]

I still think Kuwabara's the best. He was a normal human who could go toe to toe with demons. He was tough, but also provided the bulk of comedic relief and towards the end he showed how smart he could actually be.

[@cookie-gy3ed]

ThePhenomenalEX kuwabara is great, but Hiei, Kurama, and Yusuke always stay leagues ahead of him (power wise) (near the end of the show he was only about B class power, whereas the rest were all S+ class.) But honestly kuwabara is great, and I've seen so many shows anime or not that have modelled characters and made references to kuwabara. 10/10 character imo

[@ThePhenomenalEX]

Yeah, no way he could go head on against the other three towards the end, but he still managed to become the strongest pure human by the end of the series. And he was ok with that. He knew his limit. Which is just another reason he's my favorite character.

[@alanmooreisrasputinreincar8106]

Cyrus James no he wasn't kuwabara was an easy A class and the same strength as hiei and kurama they were all A class only yuske and the 3 kings were S class in the last arc

[@supersaiyangodsupersaiyanm7886]

And wow the art, it was amazing! not only was beautifully drawn and animated, I loved how the characters' expressions fit them, I was very moved. That one having AmaLee's character forcing Hiei to smile is so funny.

[@leoncoben6983]

Especially since he always keeps his shirt on. Call me crazy but I think this small detail goes into showing how he hides all his strength. Compared to the other three who normally start in top form baring all their strengths out at once like constantly revealing their muscles Kurama hides his power under his soft and gentle appearance.

Running in a crowd, In a faceless town, I need to feel the touch of a friend In the countryside, I wander far and wide. The isolation gets me again I don't know where to go When I feel like crying -"Oh my!" It's time to challenge myself, Do something new, I want to stop and grow up a bit Then suddenly, My power and confidence start swelling up, Magically erupt And it's all because of the kindness that I feel From people I don't even know Then suddenly, My intuition and my wisdom grow And then I know, That most of all I sense compassion's real Thanks to strangers where ever I go Thank you for waking me up! Until now, how many times I've tried To tell you, "please take care of yourself" Then with tear-stained eyes, I sadly said goodbye As I waved and wished you farewell Then I think of how How much longer I must wait I look inside myself, And feel something new, I want to stop and grow up a bit It's all because, I'm feeling sad And then I start to cry, I don't know why The courage that I need, the power to succeed Gives me the strength to fly It's all because of when I see of all my friends, Oh my - Every time They're always behind me pushing me on, Lighting the fire in me (Fire in me!) Then suddenly, my power and confidence start swelling up, Magically erupt. And it's all because of the kindness that I feel From people I dun't even know. I won't forget, The times we shared on those pleasant days, always And I'll never lose the strength to succeed, The courage to do what I must Your smile makes my heart explode!

[@jobsidian4219]

Yeah agree I like the dark tournament better than the sport festival

[@tejirie.9861]

The Dark Tournament only had a few good moments, way too long, with fights no one really cared about. A 40 EPISODE TOURNAMENT ARC. You could skip a few full episodes and still get the same, even a better experience.

[@leoncoben6983]

@@tejirie.9861 @Tejiri E. Yeah this was when a fighting anime could be about fighting. Also skipping any round of the tournament and you'll miss a lot of character building. The first round is used to show Kuwabara's growth, Kurama's vulnerability and savagery, Hiei's new power, and Keiko understanding a side of Yusuke she's never knew despite being by his side for his whole life. Round 2 demonstrates Kuwabara's sense of honor and sensitivity and introduce the Spirit Wave to Yusuke. Round 3 pushes their backs to the wall and allows Kurama to really shine as he struggles against three opponents one after the other for the sake of his team and this is best part of this round is when he's on the brink of death Yusuke is willing to break the rules to save him. This gesture really demonstrates how Yusuke throws all sense of honor, pride, even fairness out the window because he values his friends more. I love this moment and really shows you what kinds person he and builds up on what we already knew about him. Then we get the fight against Jin which is just a good fight and we get to see just how durable Kuwabara is despite having a broken body. Round 4 updated us on Hiei's development and showcases he's got more in his arsenal than we originally thought. Yoko Kurama is also introduced and we finally see just how brutal he really is and yet how beautifully he carries himself. Genkai shows just how powerful she still is despite just giving Yusuke her power which helps show the new potential he's going to unleash in the climax. And the finals are of course the culmination of everything that's been building up. Missing any of these moments doesn't improve it and besides its a fighting series. Fighting should be the main attraction. Long drawn out battles to showcase their inhuman strength and endurance. I hate how quickly so many battles are ended in anime today. My Hero being a constant source of disappointment. Out of the two seasons I've watched All Might vs Nemu, Deku vs Todoroki, and the Stain battle are the only fights I enjoyed. Out of 32 episodes there are only 3 outstanding fights. And I get it fighting isn't the only attraction to the anime but I'm a fighting nut. I'm here mostly for the battles. Which is why Yu Yu Hakusho is better. Not only it focus primarily on fighting but almost all the character development and growth are in the heat of battle.

Damn I kinda wish that girl was an actual character now. She adds that "woman's touch" the guys really needed. I love Keiko and other girls but they're not a high level fighters this made girl seems to be so it just works some how and fits with both groups. I can't explain it.

[@cowabungadoug]

What Genkai is not enough for you? Grandma definitely kicked some serious butt in the tournament and definitely provided some cool chick factor. Plus, Demon World Queen Mukuro was definitely an impressive female fighter whose skill was left unseen due to the last arc being rushed. Also, I think if Botan was emphasized more in series as capable member of team Urameshi then the problem would have been resolved even more so.

[@leoncoben6983]

@@cowabungadoug Genkai is awesome but she's the mentor. It's like if Tsunade had a more active role with Naruto and Sakura. It'd be awesome but since she's the teacher there isn't many moments that they could share that's outside the the older role model setting the example and being a second parent or guardian. I definitely agree with Botan should've been utilized more and at the same time disagree. She just doesn't strike me as a person who's interested in gaining more power or going through the routines of daily maintenance of said strength. As for the Demon Queen... kinda meh. I can't really say she's awesome due to lack of screentime as a character. Powerwise definitely but I don't really see her as a part of Team Urameshi and would only take interest in what benefits her and maybe Hiei. Can't really tell since she got no character development past Hiei breaking her shackles and hanging out with him afterwards. Plus this girl just seems to have the kinda of personality that meshes well with all the guy's. Strong willed, caring, stubborn, kind, and determined yet shy, awkward, occasional joker, ect. She seems to fit with the guy's in this video because with the glimpses we see she has multiple layers especially with the song matching with her actions most of the time. None of the other girl's had the kind of potential chemistry that fits with each guy. Botan is terrified of Hiei and finds it a bit difficult to hold a conversation with Kuwabara but does okay with Yusuke since they're partners and Kurama since he's the most agreeable of the group. The other girls are either non fighters or don't have an interest in knowing the other guys or even integrating into their inner circle.

[@Onche518]

Up till now How may times I’ve tried To tell you, ‘please take care of yourself…’ But with tear-stained eyes, I sadly said goodbye As I waved and wished you farewell… Then I think of how How much longer, I must wait I look inside myself, and feel something new I wanna stop, and grow up a bit! It’s all because, I’m feeling sad and then I cry; I don’t know why… The courage that I need, The power to succeed, Fills me with strength to fly…! It’s all because of when I see my friends Oh my, Every time, They’re always behind me Pushing me on Lighting the fire in me (fire in me) Then suddenly, my power and confidence start swelling up, Magically erupts and it’s all because of kindness that I feel from people I don’t even know. I won’t forget, The times we shared and the pleasant days Always and I’ll never lose the strength to succeed and the courage, to do what I must Your smile makes my heart explode!

Is this anime good

[@angramainyu9220]

Aman Rishi It's a classic :)

[@sinklar7946]

If you like action/fighting shows, it's easily one of the greatest of all time. If you've ever heard of Hunter x Hunter, it was written by the same author and just as good as HxH.

[@bastionsea4454]

Aman Rishi watch Flame of Recca too, direct copied by Yu Yu Hakusho up to the first demon games

[@KAXSH]

ARE YOU SERIOUSLY ASKING THAT? Yes...yes it is.

[@Ray_V]

Aman Rishi Hella good

[@lautycron]

Watched the video and i wondered what would happened if amalee's character were on the yu yu hakusho universe. I bet that she would be a top noch waifu, i mean the kind girl that is always smiling, adventurous, funny and devoted to the people she loves and cares that i would totally fell for, also the fighting cloths she wears are awesome. And i can't avoid to love the imagery of this video, is as if amalee is a character of yu yu hakusho and she's interactig with the main characters. I just love this video. Visuals:10/10 Music:10/10 Voice:10/10.

[@michaelmattson2227]

lauty. S. amalee would probably be botan if she was a hakusho character

[@tomspiegel5322]

I hadn't watched this anime in a LONG time. Then I heard this melody, and nostalgia hit me like a train. The exact same thing happened when I re-watched Tenchi Muyo recently.

[@angelcristobal1162]

I FEEL LIKE CRYING. YOU HAVE AWAKANED A PART OF MY LIFE OMG

[@VacadoRay]

The way you put yourself in the story is so cute and cool. U fit right in

[@MrCutlass81]

Loved this. I really get a feeling that your character would have fit the show. I still wish we could get a sequel with the next spirit detective chasing Yusuke's legacy.

[@patrick05020]

Darren Conley that's only if yoshihiro togashi will actually be able to run hunter x hunter for more than 6 months at a time. Then we'd be lucky to get the return of yu yu hakusho.

[@Mal-go5dl]

LoliLord 6 months ?!! HA ! He hasn't been that consistent in years. We're lucky if he writes for more than 2 months

[@x1000able]

There's a Yu Yu Hakusho OVA coming out in 2018!

[@Gameorama91]

I mostly would love if Yu Yu Hakusho got a modern remake like Hunter X Hunter did!

[@mugensamurai]

She would make a good Botan. LOL

[@decusq]

The passion you put into this song comes through so well

[@WesleyDaUrbanhog]

I don't even remember the last time I watched Yuyu Hakusho. The opening was always fun to sing to.

[@brianmklm]

so this is what quality looks like. im impressed!

[@izzy-w]

I always assumed the white haired girl was a character in the series...I finally realized when I read the comments in your cover of "Here" that it was the anime version of you XD

[@JC-od6vg]

Who does the animations? (Or the drawing style) since it's really good

[@Grandream]

Lowah for the art, and Kuroko for the video? Not sure how much of either contributes to what, but they are the names listed in the description.

[@JC-od6vg]

Zeal oh thx

[@saxmanhawkeye]

I am blown away by your talent!! In the span of a week, I lost my dog and a very good friend of mine. On top of that, I've been experiencing a lack of confidence in my saxophone playing ability. I really needed this. Thank you for inspiring me to be a better musician and I hope you keep it up! Your voice is incredible!! It would be awesome if you could do a cover of a song from the Fruits Basket anime!

[@sitinthecorner8102]

You did an amazing cover of an opening of one of my favorite animes of all time. Keep up the good work.

[@MultiTime100]

ive heard all sorts of people sing this song but yours is the best ive heard.

[@RAFAELSOUZA-yw7qs]

So many good feelings.... such good vibes... a piece of art. I dont know if I should feel ashamed or embarased but even as a grown up 36 y.old now I still feel inspired with this song. This show gave me many good memories.

[@hughesdanner5420]

Probably one of the most underrated animes in history. Absolutely loved this show. I watched it online (since I didn't grow up in the 90's) and I was hooked. It had such great characters and revealed aspects of humanity, life lessons. You don't see those in animes today (technically it's not their fault, since it's hard to convey a life lesson to today's society) All modern anime is just high school or comedy action. Not to mention not hand drawn (I've always preferred hand drawn)

[@Seisei16]

omg the artwork is sooo beautiful

[@KitsuneMoriZorro]

Today is now a beautiful, beautiful day! I'm so happy you did a cover of this song!

[@ElHermanosBro]

This song saved my world, big sis AmaLee. Thank you.

[@nickgirard5028]

Thanks for this. You just reminded me that Toonami over a decade ago showed Yu Yu Hakusho but never finished it. Now I'm binge watching it.

[@keyblade408]

Sometime this Song Draws A bit of tears out of me because how speical this anime is to me, this anime holds my forever top Number #1 anime of all time.

[@ai1329]

THIS IS JUST AMAZING THE YU YU HAKUSHO FANDOM APPROVES!!!

[@lelouchhatake424]

just finished the show a week ago, dang it was awesome yuskue is by far my favorite shounen protagonist ( and i’ve seen a lot of shounen ) Great cover

[@whatchuknowhoe]

I remember barely catching these shows as a kid on toonami and never getting to watch the series. Now it was on HULU and boy was I excited. The beginning still tears me up when he decided to save his girl while he could lose his body. I don’t care what anyone says no anime has touched every emotion like this one. Comedy, friendship, sadness, all of it.

[@n.a.flogio7786]

I'm from Philippines. This song is one of my childhood songs. Thank you Amalee for making the song understandable.

[@Cat-nv1nd]

My favorite show! Thanks for covering it.

[@ethanvalentin4283]

I can’t believe I just found this, I absolutely love this. Yu Yu Hakusho is absolutely hands down my favorite anime! 😍

[@bloodcycleOZero]

Next month I can finally buy songs from LeeandLie, Johnnathan Young, Caleb, and Nathan Sharp!!! :D I love this song. Your version is the best so far.

[@thatdude1044]

great job with everything on these covers! from the lyrics to the animation is all perfect!

[@TheDizzieC]

This is the best version of Smile Bomb.

Thats the OG squad right there, Thanks for the amazing cover!

[@jeffjefferson4117]

Absolutely amazing! nothing brings me back more than that opening from YuYu Hakusho. thank you for the amazing nostalgic feeling and making me feel like a kid again great cover keep up the good work!

[@nuiyooo3846]

Best one yet 😍

[@DeeonleeCobb373]

A Classic??? NANI!!?? Srsly Nice job.

[@slushiegamer6801]

This the greatest anime I have ever seen. It has the right sense of action, drama, jokes, music and love in this. Especially smile bomb is the best song. I was super sad this show ended because it had been a big part of my childhood. Even if a new 2018 version came and a live action movie on the works .I really hope that this can get a reboot.

[@jamesbrown-ye7wl]

been listening to this since it came out, 3 years later and this song is still killing it, one of your best covers!

[@ryedj707]

That beat speed up/drum insert at 1:55 really gets me. It’s the most nostalgic part of the song for me even if it was never in the original.

[@talesofeunoia4535]

First Chobits...Then Yu Yu Hakusho...My heart cant take all this nostalgia

[@terra1555]

I actually cried listening to this :')

[@moonknight6075]

Personally I think this is better than DBZ

[@calenthebard2051]

Same but still DBZ has its own charm.

The nostalgia is straight up stomping me. this was a beautifully done cover plus the art looks fantastic aswell.

[@albumreviewsandsuch9994]

my cousin, who i've always loved as a brother, was always kuwabara, and i was yusuke.... everytime a new episode finished (we always watched toonami back in the day) we went outside and acted out the scenes in the episode we watched. i always got his back, and he got mine. its one of those memories that'll never die. hearing the intro to yu yu hakusho, watching a new episode, and acting out what happened. i love this anime, its in my top 10 for sure, and the intro plays a big part in that.

[@nerium.nerium]

I want a re-telling of YYH with your self-insert character in it! She looks amazing, lol!

[@cunningsmile4166]

No Genkai? Or as Yusukue would call her (on a good day) "grandma" or (on a bad day) "old bat"

Thanks for another great cover with the biggest smile I can give!

Great job! Keep it up and thanks for covering one of my favorite openings!
