hell ya yu yu sux so bad its gonna get pulld off too. because its been getting super low ratings and their contract with toonami is over in july. plus adam finley (one of the producers of toonami) didnt ever aproove of it! so u bet ur ass it gone!!!!!!!!!!!

That's a shame, I really enjoy YYH. The only reason the ratings went down is more than likely due to the fact that it started out on Adult Swim uncut and then they sent it to Toonami where the censoring didn't sit well with it. I mean, once you've heard Yusuke say 'dammit!' every couple of minutes, hearing him say 'darn' in the toonami timeslot kinda kills the effect. Plus if anyone bothered to get the Rescue Yukina DVD, they know that they changed something entirely for the triad episode. *grumbles stupid homophobic america*

I think it's a shame that DB is replacing it. YYH certainly has much more depth to its storyline. Let's face it, DB and DBZ are to young male children what Sailormoon was to young female children. ;)

YYH is a cool show. I kind of like DB, but YYH over rules it by....A LOT. YYH should stay on Toonami, its a very cool show! YAY!

actually, I'd like it a lot more if they put it back on Adult Swim, where it belongs. ;) It's too weird to hear Yusuke *not* cuss.

wat r u talking about??? yuyu is soooo much better than db, but it's going to be replaced by this other show with human droids or something like that. it looked kinda like gundam but it's LAME

It doesn't look like it is being replaced with Dragonball...cartoonnetwork.com says it is being replaced with Cyborg 009, whatever that is. I don't really care though...it will be awhile before they have new YYH episodes on cartoon network, so this new show could be good in the meantime.

Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball Z, and the other Dragon Ball thingy I only have on thing to say about all of them.......THEY ALL SUCK, IT'S TOO LONG, BORING, AND ANNOYING.

That cyborg 009 show looks retarted. They should just show yu yu hakusho reruns till they can get the new episodes. And i know if it goes off it will come back on to show the rest of the dark tornament and the othe episodes. Dragonball is just dumb. Dragonball z is okay but why the hell would they replace it with a dumb show like dragon ball.

-- Anonymous, June 24, 2003

Like I said, Cyborg 009 may not look that good, but I'm willing to hear the story. Besides, the replacement might indeed be temporary. They couldn't just cut us off right before the real match in the dark tournament! That would be too evil, even for CN.

okay YYH is a nice show but lets face it RK is alot better. and as for DBZ its an okay show but its too much of a soapopera. its got kewl affects but all they do is yell! looks like the constipated n shit! "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" stop the screaming and talking and just fight and kick more ass!

-- Anonymous, June 25, 2003


I can't believe they're doing that. They should take Reign off of adult swim and put Yu Yu Hakusho in its place. Reign is just pure stupid.

-- Anonymous, June 26, 2003

The funny thing is that they never showed the whole series. people would have liked it much better. some people who watch it but never get on the computer to research it think that it just stopped right before kurama went up against karasu. bummer hu? Yazaku Kamika *The Penguins made me do it!*

if they pull yyh i will be very very pissed i cant friggen stay up late enough to watch the new episodes on adult swim this pisses me off extremely THANKS ALOT TOONAMY(major sarcasm in that last part) time to complain to cartoon network -this sucks

-- Anonymous, June 26, 2003

Well i for one dont want yu-yu-hakusho off of toonami. For that show called cyborg 009. Well i do care about YYH but at the same time i dont cause i saw all the episodes already. Proof My name :) Anyways where there are about to fight the Dogoro brothers it gets nasty and im hoping CN will be putting YYH on adult swim. But they shouldve replace DBZ for Cyborg 009. and leave yyh there. :D

-- Anonymous, June 26, 2003

YYH is very good, i saw it uncut... db is good too, if it's the uncut ones... In other words, it's does matter cuz Toonami kills most of the animes anyway.

Yu Yu Hakusho isn't going anywhere.For all you eastern/pacific people. It might be Rurouni Kenshin that you have to worry about.You see, in July Rurouni Kenshin will be on at 9:30pm eastern/pacific times of course.Yu Yu Hakusho will be replacing Rurouni Kenshin on July 7th at 6:30. All tihs for some lame looking show called Cyborgs 009.

-- Anonymous, June 28, 2003

Why not put Cyborgs on techtv. They're all about technology. Plus they like weird shows anyway.Oh any start off Yu Yu Hakusho with the episodes it left off on.

-- Anonymous, June 28, 2003

NO!!!! YU YU HAKUSHO IS MY LIFE!!!! THEY CAN'T TAKE IT AWAY!!!!! PUT THE CYBORGS ON TECH TV!!! CYBORGS ARE COOL, BUT YU YU IS BETTER!!!!!! AAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!! AND WHAT ABOUT MY DEAREST KURAMA(from yuyu)???????? OH THE INHUMANITY!!!!! I AM SO DEPRESSED NOW..........!!!!!!!

-- Anonymous, June 28, 2003

yyh is getting replaced by cyborg 009 which is by the same creater (mangaka) as kikaider and those who have watched kikaider in full will now that it is a very good show even if the animation isn't great. Sooo it is my opinion that even though it is making yyh be thrown out before we see the glorious handsome marvolous wonderful beautiful.... *shakes head* *cough cough* before we see yoko kurama again. We should give cyborg 009 a fair chance. Besides kikaider didn't exactly contain volumes of episodes so maybe it will be the same for Cyborg 009. -------------------------------------------------------------------- and thats that for optimism! ok frankly this sux major but what are we going to do about it? If they haven't listened to our protests about showing more inuyasha then why in the world would they listen to us now?

( i think dbz is awesome to i dont give a FUCK is u flame me u all SUCK DICK people have their opinions. Go fuck urself

-- Anonymous, June 30, 2003

Well yu yu hakusho isn't replaced by dbz but it's replaced by another show called CYBORG 009. I don't even know what that show is. I'm really going to miss watching yu yu hakusho and there was still episodes to watch too.

-- Anonymous, June 30, 2003

Who the hell made Cyborg 009 anyways, the damn show is juss like Kikaider on adult swim he is a robot juss like them, cept ther is more of them and i think kikaider is gonna b alot better then Cyborg 009...I WANT YYH BACK DAMNIT.

-- Anonymous, June 30, 2003

alright, here's the way i see it. yu yu hakusho was repeating the same episodes over and over again, from the first one to the last fight with suzaku at the tower of the four saint beasts. then they bring out these brand new (well, brand new for the U.S. at least) episodes and then cut it right when it was getting good?

i, for one, hope they bring it back. i just saw that cyborg 009 show today and i thought it sucked. it's exactly the same as that damned kikaider show. i hope cartoon network comes to it's senses and brings back yu yu hakusho, and starts giving yu yu hakusho his damned attitude back. won't even let him say "damn"... and that episode with bano where they wouldn't even show genkai's ciggarette... bastards...

lol.. got a bit carried away. i just hope they bring the show back.

YU YU HAKUSHO IS THE SHIZNE FOOLS! I USED TO LOVE DBZ! Then they showed YYH, then i watched omgs, and i cant say which one is my fav, or is it outlaw star or cowboy bepop, or chobits (heh heh) NO, ITS YYH DAMNIT!

-- Anonymous, June 30, 2003

Ok, today dinner was ready at 6, when YYH starts, so I ran into my room to record it and I heard "Wake up!" So I thought "Maybe they're waking up Yusuke...." then there was some guy lying down and some other guy in the room... I got sooooo mad!! I turned the tv right back off! We should boycott this Cyborg 009 show and maybe YYH will come back....

yuyu is coming back july 7 it says so on the cartoon network schedule its gonna be on at 6:30 and rurouni kenshin will be taken off

-- Anonymous, July 01, 2003

Well, my one major greivance is that they moved Kenshin to a time where I only get one episode a week. Yuyu is great and I often describe it as DB without every battle being "who has the bigger energy ball." They use (gasp) tactics, tricks, dirty fighting and (shock) the sidekick is the muscle bound doogooder and the hero is the jackass who is only being a good guy because he is forced to. I believe most hard core DBZers are put off by the presence of plot, humor, character developement and the lack of grunting and suspension of disbelief. Do not get me wrong, DBZ has its points(albeit very few) but its just been on toonami so damned long. I know they will never get rid of it since it is their flagship show, but I have long since grown past watching it. In the past few months, I have only been watching out of sheer boredom, and after they finished the series the first time, I gave up. Now DB was actually much better. I mean, back then death still kind of meant something as did intelligence. I might watch DB if they put it back on, but personally, I believe they need to move Kenshin back to its real time slot, get the new eps of Yuyu and keep showing Cyborg 009. As for the latter show, the animation is a throwback to the original show and manga a few decades ago (which is okay but not really my preference) but the plot and characters are great. For true science fiction fans, not just your every day anime fanatic. Definitely not for DBZers. It would just go over your heads.

why do they keep playing the same ol' episodes? we've seen them, they were great, but now it's time to move on. i want to see Toguro get the hell beat out of him.
