The original spirit detective ‘Rei’-turns to the TCG scene!
Welcome Yu Yu Hakusho CCG!
Hello everyone! Edmund here from Crystalcommerce with a slightly different catalog blog post than usual.
Reviewing products our Crystalcommerce members have been promoting on their stores, and fans purchasing products, amongst all the MTG, Pokemon, Yugioh and Cardfight!! Vanguard fan-fare, it caught my eye to see this vintage anime appear on my radar.
Growing up on Dragon Ball and Saint Seiya, Yu Yu Hakusho was something I just stumbled across, written by the renowned author Yoshihiro Togashi, who would later create Hunter X Hunter.
Compared to other manga/anime at the time, Yu Yu Hakusho really shone with it dark connotations, it’s politically driven plots and morally conflicting antagonists. This all culminated in a fascinating series that remains deep within my memory.
Although there was a CCG in the past that lasted a couple of years, this franchise disappeared until now. It provides me with great joy to see Jasco Games pick this up and incorporate it as part of its UFS family.

As it is with the Universal Fighting System, any character from any universe can fight one another! Will Yusuke battle it out with Ryu of Streetfighter? Or will Kuwabara jump in against Megaman? The choice, is yours!
