Watched last month. It was ok, but the last arc is RUSHED AS FUCK and gives an incomplete aura.

Thinking back, YYH is a lot shorter than it 'feels'.

Also YYH was just boring. Not really sure why. It was too slow or something.

Most people are focusing on the story and that's way too subjective, but if it's animation that worries you rest assured it aged well.

It helps that they actually took the effort to do a proper HD remaster from the original prints, making it look really good. So it has that over quite a number of 80's/90's anime.

But the dub of YYH is much better than the sub.

The sub tries to make the MC as serious as possible, which I just do not think fit either the tone of the story or the MC. All of the jokes and wisecracks in the Dub make the show a lot more entertaining, at least in my opinion.

They're mostly the same shit in terms of how they play out and the characters have so few moves.
Once you've watched the series once there is no real excitement or surprise, so what you're left is watching ray gun fired 200x, shotgun fired 20x, etc.

Also jesus chirst some of the arcs are boring as fuck.

>>137318784
>They're mostly the same shit in terms of how they play out and the characters have so few moves.

Tell me how Kurama's battle with Karasu played out the same as Yusuke's battle with Toguro.

Never saw the show as a kid. Saw it for the first time a few months ago.

I would say most of the voices fit the characters just fine. There are a few issues here or there (especially for side characters), but I thought the main cast was fine.

As for the jokes, of course that is subjective. I just found at least in YYH, him being a wise cracking smartass fit the story better compared to a straight faced super serious protag.

>>137318779
Come on anon, the dub is no where near that bad.

All four except Kuwabara had interchangeable voices. Kill yourself

>Tell me how Kurama's battle with Karasu played out the same as Yusuke's battle with Toguro.

I'm talking for the individual characters here, genius. As in Yusuke's battles basically play out the same, Kuwabara's basically the same, etc.

Yeah sometimes something different happens like Kurama might be able to pull out his fox form for plot reasons like during the tournament arc but for the most part the fights feel too samey for me to want to rewatch the show.

>Jutsus were the downfall of Naruto,

I stopped watching Naruto probably way before most people did and I didn't really care for it. I don't see how that is relevant to my point. You're defending a flaw.

You have something against characters having consistency when they fight?

You are familiar with fighting styles, are you?

Mike Tyson also fights the same every fight.

You'd rather they fight uncharacteristically every fight? Or have a new power up every arc that completely changes their fighting style like Ichigo?

Kurama pulling out his fox form isn't what makes him dangerous.

His fighting tactics are HxH level. He could go to the world of HxH and keep up with the tactical geniuses there.

You obviously haven't watched it if you think Kurama wins by power up like the rest of them.

No retard, I clarified what I meant since you didn't understand me the first time.

>You have something against characters having consistency when they fight?

I have something against fights being repetitive and boring.
This is not fucking Sword of the Stranger here where the fight is well executed and choreographed so you can enjoy it on the visual spectacle alone, this is you watching Yusuke charging up his ray gun for the billionth time.
When you have already seen the show once the fights on repeated watching become incredibly boring and repetitive. This is terrible when the show as a whole is pretty slow.

>>137319213
Read the above, retard.

>>137319259
Kuruma's fights are amongst the better ones, usually. But my point still stands.

>You obviously haven't watched it

I do love these retarded asspulls people like you pull out when you have nothing intelligent to say.
Yeah man I totally haven't watched the show seeing as how Yusuke's egg hatched into a faggot penguin with black hair and long ears, how that ice bitch is hiei's sister, how Genkai got killed by Toguro only to be ressurected at the end of the arc, etc.

Fucking christ I hate mindless fanboys that can't accept any criticism about shit they like.

>>137319682
>But my point still stands.

Even Kuwabara's fights don't play out the same and Kuwabara is creative in coming up with new skills for his Rei-Ken.

Ditto with Hiei. Ditto with Kurama. And even Yusuke himself comes up with tactics to get through every fight.

As opposed to Sword of the Stranger where it's a highly choreographed stunt show with little to no tactics involved.
