Top Ten "Final Boss" Villains in Yu Yu Hakusho
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 сер 2021
- Yu Yu Hakusho is one of my favorite anime, in part thanks to the antagonists. After a group of hard-fought in arcs of the series, we get to see one of the heroes face off against the leader of that team of villains. It’s essentially a final boss battle. The series is full of final bosses. I want to go over the best antagonists that truly felt like that final boss battle at the end of a group of episodes. Not all these characters are evil, but they series as an antagonist of sorts for the time being before they went off on their merry way or even joined the crew. NegetiveX joins me for this video, too.

"Yu Yu Hakusho" was such a Legendary Anime Classic, the "Dark Tournament" will always be the Best Story Arc in the Series.
And one of the best in all of anime
Nah chapter black is better
Chapter black
I think the Dark Tournament is the best tournent arc in all of anime but the Chapter Black arc is pretty damn strong and you could make a argument for either arc to be the best
@@doloslim7572 idk the OG dragon ball tournament where tien faced goku was pretty too
"The Doctor" from "Chapter Black Saga".
He had a scary vibe to him, and was a true psychopath, who wanted to see the world burn.
He had Yusuke question his morality, and made him kill a human.
I'm surprised he hasn't been talked about in any of the lists!
I wonder how he'd interact with Dr. Ichigaki, if they ever met.
@@callumkristofer7793 probably become a couple
@@SuperPeterok I... find it difficult to imagine them kissing.
@@callumkristofer7793 they'd probably turn on each other
Kurama and Hiei are the final bosses of my heart!
I thought You were The Final Boss, You’re Top 0 Strongest Anime Character!
Hiei should have been on this list, even as an honorable mention!!
Hiei FTW
It's still mind-boggling to know how underrated Yu-yu Hakusho is to this day. The anime sometimes doesn't do justice to the manga at times but no complaints from me, top 10 all-time anime easy.
Straight facts it's beyond underrated and undoubtedly top ten ever
The dub right up with dragonball
YYH is one of those rare series where I like the anime and manga equally. They’re both super top tier
I think the dub does an incredible job
Yep, actually, it's one of the two best anime i've ever seen. I rate it a 9.9/10. The same rating i give original Dragon Ball. Not DBZ, the precursor anime to DBZ. DBZ is in my top 10 though.
Anyway. I can't tell whether YYH is the number 1 best, or number 2 best. Because i find YYH to have better sad moments, and DB to have better funny moments. The comedy in Dragon Ball isn't as good as some youtube poops, but i find it to be the best in anime. The sad and depressing parts of YYH literally hit me harder than the passings of my own real life family members. I guess that's because i just didn't wanna look weak, in front of my own family... but whatever. Point is, YYH is either the #1 or #2 GOAT anime.
Sensui is a great villain and a great blueprint for the ones in HxH, but Toguro is just too damn iconic.
Very well said.
I agree toguro was something else he was my favorite villain
Slight correction on Sensui. The humans tormenting Demons thing is what he learned when a job put him in contact with the Black Book Club, and he saw them betting on death matches between captive demons.
Chapter Black is a video containing the atrocities that humans perpetrate against *each other*. Wars, slavery, genocide, the whole nine yards. The danger of the chapter black tape is that without the context and hope in the accompanying chapter white tape, it could turn just about anyone against humanity.
I watched it several times and read it multiple times
but its said
human killing demon (yokai) in inhuman
they do it for fun
not *against each other*
coz for shinobu sensui he protected humanity against devilish demon
thats why he want to Die in the hand of a demon,
sorry to my English
@@akinemainunangugel9650 he was referring to the tape, in which it was a compilation of atrocities humans have done to other humans not demons.
@@pforgottonsoul eh??
Maybe the translation in my physical manga is wrong
It said
Koenma doesn't want yusuke to see of watch the black tape because he is afraid that yusuke will end up like sensui
Because it is the record about the evil doing of humankind
And the killing of yokai...
And some kind like..
Its a secret record against the spirit world that protect humankind
Its normal to human to fight human or doing atrocities against the human society because the law is all in human.
But the tape is about the law of spirit
If the tape get to the highest heaven (well in some is kaiyo sama or the seventh heaven) the division of the demon and human will remove and it'll go back like the time of raizen
Thats how I understand koenma's explanation in my physical Manga,
With the info from real japanese traditional folklorist
The black tape of the dark record
They said in the past they believe the record can be seen by the light from the moon
Then the VHS came so the storytelling use it then VCD, DVD
Maybe in our time it can be find in dark web videos 😂😂😂 like how other make joke about sadako
Younger Toguro will always be one of my favorite villains of all time
Agree, He’s The Final Boss in entire Anime!
I love Elder Toguro. He's so sadistic and has an amazing Joker laugh.
@@SuperPeterok He’s among the Best Villains to Hate!
@@egeorgiades93 is his design based off of Kenny G or Michael Bolton?
He’s literally the epitome of men. We hate ourselves but seek strength
Toguro's "100% of 100%" just terrified me when I was a kid. Seeing a relatively normal looking guy transform into this skeletal husk with shoulders that can somehow devour souls was just so out there.
120% that's why he died
Japan has an amazing ability to create terrifying and creative villains
i'm sure it was probably a translation error but i love the implication in the dub that his whole dramatic 100% transformation was basically a 5% increase.
You got a sub because almost no one ever covers Yu Yu Hakusho
Thank you! Even in videos where I don't talk about Yu Yu Hakusho, I still sneak in some references since I love the series
That axe-hand has a remarkable resemblance with axe of despair. He just equipped himself with it to increase his ATK. He’s gonna crack your skull like a coconut
Well, he *is* a demon. And the thing is supposed to be Demon’s Axe.
@@enlongjones2394 and Axe of Despair is an Archfiend card, so it fits. It fits eerily good
When yomi killed the demon that caused his blindness was the most savage killing in anime history omg
I rewatched YYH a few years ago-and was just so happy that it has aged pretty well. It has some early anime quirks that aren't as grating as say early DB/DBZ. You're making me wanna rewatch it again (and again go into the rant that we never got the new OVA that came out dubbed)
Glad to hear I sparked that! My cohost was watching it in full for the first time earlier this year, which got me interested in talking about the series, so it has impact where when one person is talking about it, you want to watch it again.
Was Younger Toguro modeled after Arnold Schwarzenegger in Terminator 2? The similarities are noticeable.
@@SuperPeterok yes he was
Yusuke vs Toguro is always my favorite fight in the anime, because the build up was worth it, and the fight was awesome! And I was still surprised that Toguro was just an Upper B Class Demon, I thought he was an Upper A Class or maybe a Lower S Class?
That was the big twist when I watched for the first time on Toonami. Everyone thought Toguro would be the end of the series and then we learn that he was just a fraction of what the demon world had to offer
@@MrTopTenList that it turns out Toguro, who is said to be the most Wanted Man/Demon in the Human and the Demon World, that it turns out he’s really just measly B Class, and not an A or S Class.
Top ten charcters who steal other characters powers: Kirby, Mega Man , Rogue from X-Men
Top ten atrocities committed by Superman (Blowing up Congress, destroying The Thinker)
Karasu vs Kurama is veeeeery underated, I know Karasu is just Toguro's henchmen but still you can say every guy on his team felt like a final boss.
I'll probably cover the "sub-bosses" at some point and I everyone else on Team Toguro would fit on that
Kota is stronger than some may realize. The evidence was her durability against aura the audience didn't even withstand and some other feats that made her seem more durable than the entire audience.
Sensui is greatest anime villain all time
I agree.
yu yu hakusho was a show I'm so glad I took the time to watch, a few years ago at this point but it was still relatively recent. Toguro has this incredible introudction. you think he's just a body guard for a pretty minor villain, and then he contacts Yusuke, and goes "watch this" then levels an entire parking garage. "You will enter the Dark Tournament, and you will fight, and if you do not win, you will die". the absolute fear that Yusuke felt when he realized how out of his league he was. then practically every fight is a masterclass in its own right. there's that crummy justification where Yusuke's opponents were rules lawyering him, but it meant Kuwabara got a chance to prove his own power. there's the first fight where we find out the scale of Kurama's power. or the one where Hiei reveals his black dragon flame. that stuck with me, how Hiei didn't even want to fight when he realized his opponent was this respected fighter or something, he even apologized to the man, but he incinerated him anyway. it reminds you that Hiei and Kurama, no matter how much they've become like friends, are still demons. they have a different standard to act on. the guys who fight Yusuke are honestly lucky that they got the chance to live. probably.
Who else but Togeru? Thank you for covering this show. Yu Yu Hakusho is one I vividly remembered watching with great dedication. The action and even more so, the characters. It’s completely unforgettable for me. :)
It's still in my top three favorite of all time along with Rurounin Kenshin and Death Note
For me, Ruroni Kenshin seasion 1 was good.
But, seasion 2 made the show into a Masterpiece!!! 🔥
"Makoto Shishio" should be considered in Top 10 anime Villains.
The OVA's too are masterful.
Good variety in your top 3!
I have been waiting for this video for so long. This is my favorite anime EVER! I literally ate dinner watching this. Great list. I actually considered Hiei to be a Final Boss because of Yusuke beginning mission where he had to retrieve those items. He killed Gouki, helped Kurama, and Hiei was a fight that lasted a couple episodes I think. Also, the Beautiful Suzuki was the Final boss of his team but he was weaker than the front man Shishiwakamaru, Genkai said it herself and she beat him with only punches where with Shishi she had to take his energy and use spirit reflection blast twice! Love your list and doing this anime.
Thank you! Glad the video could be the feature presentation, too! Hiei was on the short list of Honorable Mentions since I did like the intro the Yusuke becoming the Spirit Detective. I kind of wish we got to see that green, multi eye form again, but I liked the Hiei we ultimately received
truly one the best. thanks for covering it.
And thank you commenting!
YYH is such an amazing Anime nd I'm glad you gave it a top 10 awesome list
SPIRIT GUN!!! dam now I want to c the whole series again its just perfect! You always have great videos I always try to watch and comment when I can but like always u do great work! Just remember Top ten shoes video because u know u want to Dim Wit - Genkai's words not mine😁
Thank you! Perhaps more fashion show lists should be in my future
For me
1. Shinobu Sensui
2. Team Toguro Dark Tournament Finals all 4 fights are boss tiers
3. Yomi
4. Mukuro
5. Toguro Brothers during the Spirit Detective Saga Yukina Rescue Arc I make it separate from the Dark Tournament because of the difference in stake and power lvls but if you want to get technical I’ll share the spot with Dr Ichigaki.
6. Shigure for both Hiei during Mukuro’s trial for him and against Kurama during The Demon Tournament
7. Suzaku
8. Chu
9. Hiei during the 3 Artifacts Arc in the start of the Spirit Detective Saga and when he transforms in his Demon Form
10. Rando
16:17 Clayfighter Clay clay fighter
come on, fight them, if you dare
What’s hilarious is that the clown loses to genkia after she give Yusuke her power so he got clap by her at her weakest
Thanks for another great list! 😎👍
Thank you!
This was a fantastic video. You had me openly laughing at points which isn't commonly found in a top ten list, so thank you.
Thank you! We always want to have that casual conversation feel to our videos, so I'm glad we could accomplish that!
Dude, Toguro will always be one of the best final bosses. His transformation will always be a favorite for me, it's a literal AOE attack
I love when you talk about Yu Yu Hakusho it's one of my favorites
great vid, thanks~
Thanks!
I remember I saw some of this Anime years ago. My friend has the manga. Cool video. ^_^
Thanks for making this fantastic video!!!
I used to cosplay as Kuwabara, with many of his outfits, and I was able to do a spot-on impression of his many voice lines as well.
I often power up to that scene where Toguro goes to 85%
I would love to share cosplay pictures of what that looks like, from many years ago.
Thank you! Keep on representing Team Urameshi! A mulberry is a tree, Kuwabara is a man.
The outfit looks simple to replicate but the problem is the hair
With the announcers at the Dark Tournament,I always felt that Koto was the more competent announcer as Jeri was definitely here to be the sex appeal to everyone else. The ditzy aura of Jeri was absolutely hilarious while Koto's passion for the action was golden.
I´m gld that younger Toguro was #1 since he´s not only my favourite Yu Yu Hakusho antagonist, but he is probably my favourite villains of all time. I remember just how much of an unclimbable wall that Toguro felt like first time i watched this series and how satisfying it was for Yusuke to finally beat him.
This was a fun video; thanks for making it!
Hard to go against Younger Toguro as the best final boss, so to speak. I enjoy Sensui a lot, and I prefer Chapter Black over The Dark Tournament on the whole, but the Sensui final fight serves more as stage setting for Three Kings than a satisfying final fight. The Younger Toguro fight, OTOH, is shonen perfection, IMO. Tons of build up, looming menace, emotional struggle, and damn near perfect pacing.
thanks for the YYH video
One thing I love about #9 is that it’s a Reversal of the upcoming fight that Genkai fights.
“Strength that makes even the most learned technique outmoded. That’s is Strength Absolute!”
Genkai does this to Suzuki and then Toguro does it to her right after.
Toguro was such a badass. I actually ordered the fabled Orange juice over ice.
And it was as glorious as you would think
I love the cool bar versus Reesha breakdown. Keep in mind the cool bar has biggest connection to use K was that yusuke had to hold back against pretty much everyone but kuwabara. Before you stake out his Spirit detective Powers hand crowbar could beat on each other for force anytime they were really spoiling for a good fight.
"I don't care if she's a girl, a baby, or somebody's grandmother!"
Yes since we basically reminds me of Legion from X-Men of course Legions probably older than sensui is cuz X-Men been out since 1963 and I don't remember when Legion was introduced
Epic video
My favorite anime! Watch it once a year. By far the most character development And story telling I’ve ever seen
Rando woke up and chose violence and it backfired gloriously.
congrats on 55k subs
Thank you!
@@MrTopTenList Fun Fact: Sasuke from Naruto was heavily inspired by Hiei.
Toguro will always be one of my favorite villains.
The villains I liked were Toguro,Suzaku,Sensui. The best arcs in yu yu hakusho in my opinion are
1.Dark Tournament
2.Chapter Black
3. Spirt detective Saga
So demon kings arc isn't even on the list? Lol
@@SuperPeterok yeah it is my list and the demon king saga was my least favorite dude.
@@Chaosic you didn't even list it lol
@@SuperPeterok yeah I know man it is not my favorite arc though I like the ending of that arc which ends the show
I grew up with yuyu hakusho
No Elder Toguro? Wtf😂
My favorite part of the game master fight was that he determined the rest of the trivia questions based on the first few questions. People actually figure out how games produce pseudo randomness using methods like that
“Dark Tournament” arc of Yu Yu Hakusho was the epitome of anime itself. It created a pathway for other anime’s to use this concept and created a platform for each of the characters to explore their personalities and backstory. It was an effective way to learn about a wide array of characters whilst still giving us action.
DBZ and Naruto is for kids, but YYH is for people of refined taste. Something the later wouldn’t understand.
Dbz not only came first but did the tournament setup first as well…Dont kid yourself dude, I love all 3 series but your tweaking if you think yyh did it first or is some level of refined mature anime
Yu Yu Hakusho did it better than Dragon Ball Z.
Its the best tourney arc period better then the chunin exams. But Pain/Nagato is almost as good as toguro and sensui when it comes to villains
@TheCuboneSwordsman Real talk 💯
Still one of my favorite animes to binge watch... just finished it (again) about 1 month ago...
i love when 100% toguro is killing weak demons by just being around them. and then theyre like oh hes just a B lol
Younger toguro was something else he was my fsvorite villain
Just a good video
As i guy from new zealand i love the anime i literally only got to see it when i went to american samoa as a kid and when got back to new zealand never forgot about it and watched the whole series as a adult
You gotta love the fact that one of the first Final Boss was just some "Rando"
This is the Anime that got me into Anime.
Yu Yu Hakusho is my favorite all time Anime I love this show my main Hero is Yusuke but main Villain Younger Toguro
Thanks
Good video. You need to read the final, lost YYH arc from the manga that did not make into the anime. It turns the whole series POV upside down.
love yu yu hakusho. and you #1 pick is also mine
I liked the Suzaku battle. It just had 1 problem. His weakness.
Rare take but the Saint Beast is my favorite arc of the series
You should do characters who fight using rollerblades/skates.
You just gotta love Chu, the whole sui ken stuff, the style, the personality. In the latam dub the last fight with the knives is called "duelo a muerte con cuchillos", it's one of the most memorable moment of the whole show.
As for the number one, it's hard to find reasons why younger Toguro doesn't deserves that spot, it has a great build up, from a story and character perspective, it's a contant threat, even the events of the fight and how he pushes Yusuke beyond his limits by threatening and harming his friends makes the tension go up, and it has one of the best conclusions to an arc. Beggining, middle and end are just great.
As for other characters that aren't last bosses but i would have love to see Elder Toguro and Sniper come to my mind.
I love Chu's haircut.
Our world needs to be reminded of the greatness of this anime..really wish someone gives us a modern fighting game of Yu Yu hakusho
1. Toguro “Orange juice over ice”
2. Sensui “Trial of humanity”
3. Yomi “We should eat as much as we want”
4. Suzaku “Touché human”
5. Rando “Now die”
6. Chu “knife-edge deathmatch”
7. Hiei “Dragon of the Darkness Flame!”
8. Sniper “Run all you like”
9. Mukuro “It’s not hatred, it’s longing”
10. Doctor “I’m working a double shift”
I do like the idea that a curse will rebound on the caster if it can’t hit the intended target. It sorta gives the idea that the curse is both aware and malevolent. “Oh, you can’t give me a target? Good thing I’ve got backup.” Mär had the same thing going on.
Karasu was my favorite character in this series. I wish we saw more of him. He was so brutal leading up to his fight with Kurama
Karasu is what I would draw in elementary school. Before I ever saw the show.
@@SuperPeterok that's cool
@@lordsircocktheviijr.4622 I read somewhere that Karasu and Bui deeply admired each other and respected each other as warriors.
@@SuperPeterok well I can totally see that since they had a common goal of killing the Toguro Brothers
@@lordsircocktheviijr.4622 but karasu wanted to kill both Toguro's?

my top 5:
5. Karasu
4. Sniper
3. Hiei
2. Sensui
1. Toguro
My favorite anime!
I'm a little upset that you put clown man on here, but not Hiei. Otherwise, great vid, man.
Toguro and sensui are amazing characters
Best ever !!!!
Feel like elder toguro should be on this list. Doctor as well. But overall enjoyed this list and this anime.
Yu Yu Hakusho is my favorite anime of all time. The dub is insanely good, and the story is one of the most touching I’ve seen in shonen. I still adore the chapter black saga.
100% agree. Love the sub, story, music, animation, etc. The list goes on!
Why not the dub?
Personally i feel like i wouldnt love it as much if it wasnt part of my childhood but i cant deny its in my top 5.
"Knife Edge Deathmatch" is a meme in the Spanish community because while in the Japanese version this part keep on English, in the Spanish version they completely translated that part which kind of ruin the experience.
Here is a fun list idea, 10 most stylish or over the top fighting game finishers
"You are a teacher, have some class man." Yeah..this is an anime..there is plenty of high-school scenes but no one ACTAULLY holds any recognizable classes. Unless "discretly communicate with other students while teacher just zones off into a thousand yard stare offscreen" or "completely silent teacher calls on you out of the blue just to interupt your discreet communications but doesn't actually have anything shcool relevant to say" classes are taught in Japan.
sorry, hiei's funny picture in the preview, what episode did you get it from?
Yu yu hakusho is the best, i love yu yu hakusho its one of the best anime ever
Anyone who doesn't like Yu Yu Hakusho, has never seen Yu Yu Hakusho
I need to watch Yuyu Hakusho again. I thought Yusuke was 16
He got older as the series went on. He started out at 14 and was 18 by the end of the series.
@@MrTopTenList so you’re saying he got ran over by a truck when he was 14? That’s brutal
The dark tournament is easily the best arc in the series. I really enjoyed the first part of chapter black. You feel you really know the group, and they feel like a fully formed team. The psychics all having unique powers that test the hero’s in different ways was pretty creative and subverted the trope of “he with the biggest knuckles wins.” The ending however, ruined it for me. Pretty much when Jesus yuseke gets back in the fight.
Were the dark tournament ended just as it should. Yusuke learns how to fully tap into his powers, togoro’s story reaches its conclusion, and the tournament was destroyed. It even lead to the next arc. The only change I would make of it would be to keep genkai dead. First off bringing someone back to life is hard, see first arc for details. Second, genkai’s arc also concluded alongside togoro’s, and she doesn’t really need to be in the rest of the story.
@@jizz5373 ruined it for me.
Wish this show would come back.
18:19 its a matter of perspective really he never wanted to win the fight, just free from her pain and he succeeded, so that's a win
That's why kakuto no sho on the super Nintendo has a mini game in the story mode that lets you punch ichigaki's lights out
other than the game master part of chapter black, everything else about is so awesome.
"you know what's bigger then 7? 10! Basic math bam!"
I like Kinnikuman better than YYH. Each character has a unique fighting style with weakness. And its especially amazing since all the characters except the MC are summited by fans. Some of these became major antagonist and even protagonists. One even got his own spin-off series because how popular he is: Ramenman.
I honestly forgot most of the antagonist in YYH. The exceptions were the Toguro brothers, Shinsui and the 3 demon kings who's name I admittedly forgot. I guess we can count Hiei.
Sensui made no sense to me like the gun you mentioned. How is having a different personality give you the ability to turn into a cyborg? Also not all personalities got explored making the number of personalities pointless.
How did you forget Yomi and that voice?
Always felt the last tournament was underrated not only did yuske lose and it was cool but we had some dope ass demon scraps and character development
I love You you Hakusho but I never thought of this until I watched this. Every single major Villain help Yusuke defeat themselves. Tagoro did everything to help Yusuke get strong enough to kill him when he could have just crushed him. Senswi manipulates everything knowing he will die in the end. Yomi not only agrees to having a fight with rules but gives Yusuke a pep talk and loses his position of power by fighting to rules that wore him down. Pretty interesting.
This was the first anime i discovered by myself, and the second one i seen (First being sailor moon)
