Episode 05. Yusuke's Back

 

Narrator: One day, Yusuke Urameshi was killed in a car accident. He awoke as a ghost, and was given the chance to regain his life by hatching a dangerous Spirit Beast that fed off his own energy. The Spirit Beast probably would have eaten him alive. But Yusuke used the power of the egg to save Kayko’s life, and sacrificed his one hope for coming back. Koenma, ruler of the Spirit World, has seen Yusuke’s selfless act and will give him a second chance.  

 

Title: Yusuke’s Back

 

(Evening in the city. Yusuke and Botan are waiting for Koenma to arrive and help Yusuke return to his body. Yusuke is irritated with having to wait.)

 

Yusuke: There are two things I hate. Waiting, and being rushed.  And what do you know--that’s all I’ve been doing lately!

 

Botan: Well Yusuke, important people like Koenma are always quite busy.

 

Yusuke: Ha! Those guys just like to keep you waiting to make you think that they’re important. Besides, how busy can a toddler be?

 

(As if on cue Koenma appears behind Yusuke.)

 

Koenma: I thought we agreed you’d stop calling me that.

 

Yusuke: Koenma!

Koenma: Yo!

 

Yusuke: Don’t sneak up on me! It really pisses me-

 

(Botan grabs on to Yusuke, covering his mouth to prevent him from saying anything he would regret.)

 

Botan: Hey Koenma sir, Yusuke was just wondering when would be a good time to bring him back to life.

 

Koenma: Ah yes, about that matter. It seems we’re going to have to rush. Come with me.

 

(Koenma grabs hold of Yusuke’s wrist and flies off with him, while Botan follows close behind on her oar. They arrive at an apartment building which has become Yusuke’s new home. Atsuko is in the next room drinking.)

 

Yusuke: Nice pad, my mom must’ve had good fire insurance. So are you going to put me back in my body now?

 

Koenma: Not just yet. Energy of the body and energy of the soul have their own wavelengths. Unless the two are aligned, they cannot join, which won’t happen until- Tomorrow.

 

Yusuke: Wow! Starting tomorrow I’ll be a human with real fists and everything! 

 

Koenma: Well that’s the best-case-scenario. There is a small problem.  The frequencies of your wavelengths, interestingly enough, are lower then most people. If you miss this chance tomorrow, you’ll have to wait a while to realign. 

 

Yusuke: What are we talking about? Like weeks, or months?

 

Koenma: Fifty-two years.

 

Yusuke: FIFTY-TWO YEARS!

 

Koenma: Yes, but I think it would be wise if you did it tomorrow instead. And in order for that to happen you’ll need someone in the living world who cares about you at least a little bit to donate their life energy.

 

Yusuke: You mean like a human sacrifice?

 

Koenma: Are you kidding? I’m not evil! They must give it to you, through the lips. 

 

(Yusuke freaks.)

 

Koenma: I don’t see what’s surprising about that. Haven’t you heard of mouth-to-mouth resuscitation?

 

Yusuke: I guess so.

 

(Koenma pulls out a pocket watch.)

 

Koenma: It’s time now. 

 

(Koenma leans over Yusuke’s prone body and starts to make it glow.)

 

Yusuke: Hey! Why are you making me glow?!

 

Koenma: Standard procedure. I’m opening the road between your body and the Spirit World, so the transfer can be made. In the morning, your body will shine in gold.  Tonight, while your body prepares, you must enter the dreams of the three people who want you back the most. Tell them each what to do, and if one of them understands the message and kisses you before tomorrow at midnight, then you will return to the living world.

 

Yusuke: Three people, huh?

 

(In the next room, Atsuko finds that the bottle of booze she had been enjoying was now empty.)

 

Atsuko: Poo. Empty already? Must be a sign that somebody’s thinkin’ about me at the bar.

 

(Drunkenly she wanders into Yusuke’s room.)

Atsuko: Hey there Yusuke. Watch over the house for me while I’m gone.

 

(To drunk to really stand up straight Atsuko staggers out of the room and apartment.)

 

Koenma: The first is your mother, who seems to be leaving now.

 

Yusuke: Oh yeah, we better rule her out.  She’ll be on this streak for days. Who are the other two people I’ve got?

 

Koenma: You should know. It’s the ones who are closest to you.

 

Yusuke: Okay, okay, I’m sure Kayko is one. And the other one must be-

 

(Kuwabara wakes up screaming.)

 

Kuwabara: It’s terrifying! I didn’t know nightmares could be so bad!

 

(In his dream Kuwabara saw himself kneeling next to Yusuke who was shining in with gold light.  He gently gathers Yusuke into his arms like the a hero of a romance novel and presses his lips to Yusuke’s. A black dot with the Kanji character for Censored appears over their joined lips. Kuwabara screams once again in disgust. The next morning Kayko visits Yusuke on her way to school.)

 

Kayko: Yusuke? (Mentally) He certainly doesn’t look golden, but was it? Should I try?

 

(Kayko blushes before she stands up and grabs her school bag. Believing the dream she had the previous night was nothing but fantasy. Unbeknownst to her Yusuke’s legs are shining with gold light.)

 

Kayko: (Mentally) Don’t be silly. It was just a dream.

 

(Outside Koenma, Yusuke, and Botan watch in concern as Kayko leaves the building and heads off to school.)

 

Yusuke: Hey! Didn’t she see me glowing?

 

Koenma: I forgot to tell you.  The connection starts at the feet and gradually moves up. You won’t be completely gold until noon. Guess she should have checked the sheets.

 

Yusuke: Kuwabara and my mother are hopeless. I’ll just have to wait until Kayko gets out of school. I hate waiting.

 

(At Sarayashki Jr. High the biology teacher is giving a lecture. Kayko notices that Kuwabara was absent with disappointment.)

 

Teacher: Who wants to learn about Photosynthesis?! Anyone? Okay, well it’s very interesting.  See the chlorophyll in the plant cell absorbs sunlight and converts it into energy… 

 

Kayko: (Mentally) Kuwabara’s not in school today. I wanted to ask him about the dream.

 

(Mr. Takanaka enters the room.)

 

Takanaka: Ukimura! Kayko Ukimura!

 

Kayko: Yes sir?

 

Takanaka: Would you come with me? There’s something wrong with your mother.

 

(At the hospital Kayko sits worriedly by her mothers bed side as the doctor talks with Kayko’s father.)

 

Doctor: I’m afraid she’s over worked herself in this hot weather, Mr Ukimura. But with a days rest we think she’ll be fine. 

 

Kayko’s Dad: Thank you, Doctor. Thank you very much. Kayko, they say she’ll be fine. Now let’s give her a chance to sleep now. 

 

Kayko: No. I’m staying right here.

 

(Kayko’s father leaves to return to his restaurant. Outside Yusuke and Botan watch Kayko keep vigil over her sleeping mother.)

 

Botan: Oh, how unlucky this is. She’ll stand at her mother’s bedside all night, but you’re the one that needs attention.

 

Yusuke: You know, between my house burning down that energy wavelength problem and now this, it really feels like somebody’s out to get me.

 

Koenma: Yo! Your link-up to the Spirit World is fully loaded Yusuke.  All we need now is the life energy.

 

(Yusuke’s body is now fully shining with gold light. Yusuke and Botan in desperation go in search of the other two life energy donors. They find Kuwabara spending his time at the “Las Megas” Video Arcade. He is too engrossed in the racing game he’s playing to pay attention to anything else.) 

 

Kuwabara: Go! Go! Faster you wimp! Get out of my way, stupid blue car guy! 

 

Yusuke: There! There he is! Come on Kuwabara! Get your head out of that damn game and listen to me. I don’t want you to think I’m weird or anything, but please, please, please just kiss me!

 

Kuwabara: Hey! Get off my tail, road trash!

 

Yusuke: Idiot!!

 

(Once again forgetting that he’s a ghost, Yusuke punches Kuwabara in the head and ends up falling through Kuwabara. But it was enough to set off Kuwabara’s spiritual sense.)

 

Kuwabara: This arcade just got chilly.

 

Yusuke: Did you see that?! He can sense me! Now put it together moron!

 

(Kuwabara stands up and runs away.)

 

Kuwabara: Oh no! Not the tickle feeling! 

 

Botan: He could take a while.

 

Yusuke: Which I don’t have!!

 

(Seeing as the option of Kuwabara donating his life energy was dead in the water to begin with, Yusuke and Botan journey on in search of Atsuko. They find her drinking with a pair of drag-queens.)

 

Yusuke: Hey! Are you listening to me?! How can you go partying with these weirdos when my life is hanging by a stupid thread? Get off your butt!  

 

Atsuko: Oh you don’t know the half of it!

 

Drag-Queen: You sure can hold your liquor. 

 

Drag-Queen 2: That much always gives me gas!

 

Atsuko: ANOTHER ROUND FOR THE LADIES!  

 

Drag Queen: Atsuko! You’re such a friend!

Atsuko: Then drink some more!

 

Yusuke: Just pull the plug.

 

(Giving up on Atsuko, Botan and Yusuke take to the sky to weigh their only options as Yusuke’s chance of revival draws all the all the more closer to an end.)

 

Botan: I suppose the only thing we can do at this point is try to contact Kayko again.

 

Yusuke: What’s the use? She’s practically hand cuffed to her mom.

 

(Koenma drops out of nowhere.)

 

Koenma: What will you do then? It’s about to be eleven-forty five.

 

Yusuke: Time flies, doesn’t it.

 

Botan: (Mentally) I can’t let Yusuke give up now. There’s got to be a way to-

 

(Botan suddenly remembers theirs one last person that could relay the message to Kayko. She takes races off on her oar, knocking Yusuke off of it in the process.)

 

Botan:  If this won’t do it I don’t know what will!

 

Yusuke: Wait! Botan!

 

Botan: Just hang tight! I’ve got an idea that could still make this work!

 

Yusuke: Doesn’t she know when to quit?

 

Kayko: (Glances at watch) (Mentally) It’s gotten so late.

Kayko’s Mom: Yu-ske. Yusuke.  You must save him. His time runs out at twelve.  Remember what you dreamed. It was more, then that. Kayko believe.

 

(Kayko stands up finally realizing that her dream had been a message. Koenma and Yusuke are hovering outside Yusuke’s apartment.  Koenma has his pocket watch out as the minutes count down ever closer to midnight.)

 

Koenma: Five more minutes. What will you do if she doesn’t make it in time?

 

Yusuke: The only thing I can do.  Wait around another fifty years.  Then I’ll go see Kayko when she’s an old hag. 

 

(Yusuke notices Kayko racing towards the apartment building. Botan arrives as well.)

 

Botan: The mother was asleep so she was turned into the Spirit World I relayed the message through her.

 

(Kayko runs into the building and starts pushing the elevator button. The elevator is unfortunately on the roof not wanting to wait Kayko runs up the stairs to Yusuke’s front door. The golden glow around Yusuke is slowly beginning to fade.)

 

Yusuke: Will she make it?

 

Koenma:  It is now eleven fifty-seven.

 

(Kayko franticly looks through her book bag for her spare key to Yusuke’s Apartment.)

 

Yusuke: She’s only got three minutes!

 

Koenma: Actually, make that two minutes.

 

(Kayko manages to find the key. But her time to save Yusuke is dangerously short.)

 

Koenma: Eleven fifty-nine!

 

Yusuke: It’s, to late!

 

Kayko: Got it!

 

(Kayko runs into the apartment kicking off her shoes and races to Yusuke’s room just as the clock is chiming twelve.)

 

Kayko: He’s fading! Yusuke!!

 

(Kayko runs towards the body of her childhood friend. Yusuke flies towards the apartment. )

 

Yusuke: KAYKO!!

 

(Everything seems to wait with a tense silence as clock finishes chiming.  Kayko removes her lips from Yusuke’s. The gold light surrounding him flickers and finally dies like the flame of a candle. )

 

Kayko: Please come back, I need you. Yusuke please, (Starts to cry) Yusuke. No don’t go. No. YUSUKE!!

 

Koenma: She didn’t make it. 

 

(Botan notices that a certain someone is missing. In the apartment Yusuke starts to stir. Kayko notices and watched in awe as Yusuke sits up and smiles at her.)

 

Yusuke: Hey, nice kiss.

 

Kayko: Oh Yusuke!

 

(Kayko gives a happy sob and leaps onto Yusuke giving him a big hug.)

 

Botan: She barely made it. I was holding my breath and everything. Well I guess this case is over.

 

Koenma: Don’t be crazy Botan. This boys case is only beginning, didn’t you know? The real ordeal will be much harder. Let’s see how our little Yusuke fares when he’s not floating in the sky.

 

*Commercial Bumper*

 

(Yusuke is walking down the street enjoying the fact he’s alive and that everything is back to normal. His hair isn’t slicked back so nobody recognizes him currently. Two thugs approach him.)

 

Yusuke: My feet are so heavy they’re stuck to the ground!  Man I love gravity!

 

Thug: Pardon us sir, could we barrow a little cash?

 

Thug 2: You see we’ve lost our wallets and we need to call moms.

 

Thug: You remember how the Golden Rule works, don’t you?

 

Thug 2: Just give us all the money you’ve got on, okay?

 

Yusuke: Are you guys talking to me?

 

(The thugs look confused about Yusuke’s question.)

 

Yusuke: I mean you see me?

 

Thug 2: Who else would we be threatening, buddy?

 

(Yusuke clutches Thug 2’s hand.)

 

Yusuke: I can talk trash to people and even touch them! To be alive is a wonderful thing!

 

(Yusuke walks away. An irate Thug 2 wants to beat him up but Thug 1 fortunately stops him.)

 

Thug 2: How dare you! You can’t touch me!

 

Thug: Leave him alone. It isn’t right to mess with the crazies.

 

(Yusuke hears someone call him and notices a fortune-teller trying to get his attention. The fortune-teller seems very familiar looking.)

 

Fortune-Teller: This way. Yes, over here. Do you have a minute?

 

Yusuke: Who, me?

 

Fortune-Teller: Indeed.

 

Yusuke: Alright.

 

Fortune-Teller: You are born under the influence of an unusual star.  Your life energy is somehow different from other people.

 

Yusuke: You don’t say. (Mentally) Maybe I should tell her I’ve been dead for a couple weeks. That would throw her.

 

Fortune-Teller: No it wouldn’t. You have a mission to accomplish, young man. 

 

(Yusuke turns and starts to leave.)

 

Fortune-Teller: Where are you going? I’m not finished!

 

Yusuke: Sorry, but no missions for me. (Slips on a pair of sunglasses.) All I’m doin’ now is some good old R and R.

 

(While passing a coffee shop Yusuke over hears two boys converse about a group of students that are wanting to take over the area.)

 

Boy: All those guys are from Rugafuchi Junior High. 

 

Boy 2: Yeah, they come here all the time now.

 

Boy: I hear they’re trying to take over the turf from Kuwabara.

 

Boy 2: No way! Man, we better get out of here.

 

Boy: If only Yusuke Urameshi were still alive.

 

(Yusuke enters the shop. Several thugs sitting around a smaller evil looking boy with glasses look up. Seeing that he was not the person they were waiting for they quickly ignore him. Yusuke pays careful attention to the thugs.)

Yusuke: (Mentally) These are definitely kids from Rugafuchi. I see they’ve been taking advantage of things while I’ve been gone. Nice of them.

 

(A waitress brings Yusuke a cup of coffee.)

 

Waitress: Here you go.

 

Yusuke: (Mentally) From the way they’re sitting, I’d say four-eyes is the ringleader.

 

(Yusuke pulls down his shades when he notices something strange about the ring leader that no one else seems to see.)

 

Yusuke: (Mentally) What the- that guys got horns! That’s not normal. Oh well. Not gonna ruin my day.

 

Thug 3: Aye, Kuwabara’s later then usual.

 

Thug 4: Yeah, maybe he’s not gonna come after all.

 

Thug 3: So what makes you so sure he’ll follow your orders, Sakamoto?

 

Sakamoto: Simple, my boys. I’m playing with a loaded deck. And as evidence of his great loyalty, I’m having him steal a comic book from the most guarded store in town and bring it to me. 

 

Yusuke: (Mentally) Oh, give me a break, horn-boy. Everybody knows Kuwabara doesn’t steal things. It goes against his honor code.

 

(The door of the coffee shop opens again. Yusuke and the thugs look up and see Kuwabara standing in the door way with his three friends. Kuwabara has a bag under his arm.)

 

Kuwabara: Eikichi! Eikichi! Where are you?!

 

Sakamoto: She’s safe here with me. Now, let’s see what you’ve got there.

 

Kuwabara:  There!

 

(Kuwabara reaches into the bag under his arm and throws a few comic books on the table.)

 

Kuwabara: I got you several kinds! I didn’t know what you liked.

 

(Sakamoto looks unimpressed and holds up a receipt.)

 

Sakamoto:  Well, isn’t that very interesting, Kuwabara? Didn’t know they gave receipts for stealing. 

 

Kuwabara: What difference does it make? I got you the comic books, now give me Eikichi!

 

Sakamoto: Fool. You’ve missed the point entirely.  I was trying to teach you the thrill of stealing things. This is now what we agreed upon. Now apologize.  You heard me. Get on your knees and apologize for being wrong. 

 

Kumada: What?!

 

Okubo: Never!

 

Kumada: Don’t push it, Sakamoto!

 

Kuwabara: Quiet!  

 

(Reluctantly Kuwabara gets on his knees.)

 

Okubo: Ku--wabara, don’t

 

Kuwabara: I’m, sorry Sakamoto. I was wrong.

 

Thug 3: What’s that? You were mumbling.

 

Kuwabara: I’M SORRY I WAS WRONG!!

 

(The thugs all laugh in amusement.)

 

Yusuke: (Mentally) Whoa. This Eikichi girl must be somethin’ special to make him sink that low. 

 

Thug 3: You’re pathetic.

 

Thug 4: Ya’ might as well give us your backbone too.

 

(One of the thugs reaches into a bag he has and pulls out a little brown and white kitten.)

 

Thug 5: I just can’t believe you’re doing all that for a retarded fuzz-ball.

 

Eikachi: Meow…

 

Kuwabara: EIKICHI!!

 

(Yusuke does a classic anime fall over.)

 

Kuwabara: Please don’t hurt her! I’ll do anything you want me to do!

 

Thug 3: How did such a pathetic loser become boss on this turf?

 

Kumada: Hey who you callin’ a pathetic loser! 

 

Okubo: Kuwabara would knock your teeth out if you’d just fight him like a man,.

 

Mop Head Boy: It’s wrong. Playing off Kuwabara’s love for kittens!

 

(The Thug holding Eikichi swings her back and forth in a teasing way.)

 

Thug 5: You want her?

 

Sakamoto: You’re mad? Then why don’t you do something terrible? I think you’ll find it fun if you do it once or twice. It gives you a thrill like no other.

 

Thug 4: Boss sure has gotten weird in these last couple weeks, but you gotta admit he sure is getting the job done. At this rate we’ll rule the whole city soon! 

 

Thug 3: Yeah, Kuwabara’s a sinch. I’m just glad that other guy got hit by a car.

 

Sakamoto: Well let’s not dwell on dead people. Terrorizing the living is much more entertaining.

 

(The group leaves the Coffee shop and goes to a vacant lot.)

 

Kuwabara: Just tell me what you want, Sakamoto! I don’t care what, as long as you give me Eikichi.

 

Sakamoto: Good, this will be your last order. Hit your three friends.

 

Kuwabara: What?

 

Sakamoto: They’ve been staring at me ever since we met, I think it’s very rude. So hit them until I say stop. Now. Hit them.

 

Kuwabara: No. I could never do that to them.

 

Sakamoto: Fine, do it!

 

(The thug holding Eikichi brakes a bottle on a crate next to him and holds it threateningly towards Eikichi.)

 

Eikachi: Meow…

 

Kuwabara: EIKICHI!!

 

Sakamoto: Hit them! Or else say good-bye to your cat!

 

Kumada: Hit us Kuwabara! We can take it!

 

Mop Head Boy: We’ll just act like it’s Sakamoto hitting us, and we’ll get him back!

 

Okubo: That’s right. We owe you anyway.

 

Kuwabara: No. That goes against my code.

 

Sakamoto: You heard him! Kill the cat!

 

(Someone runs up and punches the thug holding Eikichi. The kitten’s savior then leaps in the air and lands safely on the ground with the kitten cradled in one arm.)

 

Thug 3: Where’d he come from?!

 

Thug 4: Who the hell is he?

 

(The new comer turns and reveals himself to be none other then Yusuke. His hair is now slicked back. Everyone’s surprised to see him alive.)

 

Yusuke: Hi!

 

Thug 3: It’s, that guy! It’s Yusuke Urameshi!

 

Kuwabara: Y-you’ve really come back from the dead!

 

Yusuke: That’s right. And I’m in the mood for a relaxing throw-down!

 

(Yusuke kicks Thug 3 in the stomach knocking him down. Kuwabara smiles and turns to his friends now that things are going in his favor.)

 

Kuwabara’s friends: Let’s fight!

 

(Kuwabara starts beating up Thug 4.)

 

Kuwabara: You want to tell me I don’t have a spine now? Huh?!

 

(Thug 3 grabs on to Kuwabara’s waist. Yusuke however disengages him by delivering a kick to his head. Yusuke hands Eikichi to Kuwabara who is happy to have her back.)

 

Yusuke: Here. Hold this guy, would ya’?

 

Kuwabara: Hey! It’s a she!

 

(In the confusion Sakamoto runs away like the coward he is. Yusuke notices and gives chase.)

 

Yusuke: Hey! He’s gonna miss the best part! Don’t you want to talk?

 

(Sakamoto runs into and over pass where he trips. Yusuke stops in front of him.)

 

Yusuke: You know, I think you’re right.

 

(Getting up Sakamoto tries to run away again. Yusuke grabs him by the shirt collar and knocks him out.)

 

Yusuke: I didn’t wanna talk to you either. You’re an embarrassment. And what’s with the little horns, huh?

 

(Yusuke’s answer comes in the form of a tiny ogre like demon that crawls out of Sakamoto’s mouth.)

 

Yusuke: Whoa. What the hell is that thing?

 

(The demon hears Yusuke and is surprised that he is discovered.)

 

Demon: What?!

 

(The demon tries to escape but Yusuke manages to catch him. The demon screams as he is caught and struggles trying to get away from Yusuke.)

 

Demon: Get your filthy hands off me! Don’t you know living humans can’t see me! And they certainly can’t pick me up out of the air!  You’re braking the rules!

 

Yusuke: You’re too big to be a tapeworm.  And you talk.

 

Demon: He even speaks my language!

 

(Yusuke hears a familiar voice. Turning he sees the Fortune-Teller from earlier walking towards him.)

 

Fortune-Teller:  His name is Jyaki. He is a ruthless criminal. Wanted for five previous convictions in the Spirit World. He burrows into the evil portions of a human’s soul, and makes them do his bidding.

 

Yusuke: Hey you’re the fortune-teller from the alley!

 

Fortune-Teller: Yes, and you’ve proven to be the one we’re looking for, Jyaki’s very hard to find once he’s entered a human. We’ve been tracking him for weeks. But your instincts helped you catch the criminal, before you even knew the crime.

 

Yusuke: My instincts?

 

Fortune-Teller: You have all that’s required to be Detective of the Spirit World.

 

Yusuke: That’s a fancy title. What do they do?

 

Fortune-Teller: You’ll learn soon enough, Yusuke. The appointment is mandatory.

 

Yusuke: Whoa, slow down! How the hell do you know my name?

 

Fortune-Teller: Don’t get fussy! I hope you know mine, too!

 

(The Fortune-Teller pulls off her mask and reveals her self to be none other then Botan.)

 

Yusuke: Botan! It’s you!

 

Botan: There you see, I know you’d remember me! It’s only been one day!

 

Yusuke: Am I in trouble?

 

Koenma: Yusuke Urameshi!

 

(Yusuke and Botan run out from under the over pass and see a large projected image of Koenma.)

 

Koenma: Once again you have surprised me, beginner’s luck I’m sure. But alas, you’ve passed your test, and since the situation is rather desperate right now I’m going to commission you. You are for the moment the Spirit Detective of Earth. And no, it’s not just a fancy title.  You’ll get cool powers. I’ve come up with them myself.  As the need arises Botan will supply you with information on your cases. They won’t be easy. I hope you’re ready.  

 

Yusuke: Wait!

 

(Botan take’s Jyaki from Yusuke and calls forth her oar before hovering away.)

 

Botan: I’ll take this little guy back to the Spirit World. You better get a good night’s rest for tomorrow Yusuke!

 

Yusuke: You just gonna leave me like this?!

Botan: I promise this will all make sense very soon! We’ll have so much fun working together!

 

Yusuke: Well, so much for the good old R and R.

 

Preview of Next Episode

 

Botan: Hey everybody! Trouble awaits on the next Yu Yu Hakusho. Yusuke gets his first big case as Spirit Detective, and I’m afraid it’s gonna be a doozy. Three master criminals have escaped into the living world, and they’ve each stolen an enchanted artifact.  We’re talking three monsters with magical powers and super human strength, lugging around weapons that can steal human souls! Not exactly a case for a rookie, right? Can our Yusuke survive a crook who transforms into a demon juggernaut? I hope you’re as worried as I am!
