Summary: The End---For Now
Comment: This is pretty much the end of the Sensui arc, and it delivers. While Yusuke totters between death and life, the Thrilling Three...well, more like the Redhead, Pointyhead, and Carrothead, okay...continue their fight for revenge. Sensui sees his finest and not-finest hour; Genkai gest to play the part of sarcastic but grief-stricken mentor; Keiko weeps for her boyfriend; Itsuki does what he does best, i.e. follows his boss patiently and gets to mourn after. Even Koenma gets a chance to shine---as if his stand-off with Sensui in the last few episodes wasn't enough, he now ends up standing up to his father's best in order to save Yusukes life. (That leaves him out in the cold for several episodes after.)
Heck, Puu himself ends up playing the part of immortal pheonix---and yeah, I mean that little blue forehead wart that's been clinging to Yusuke since hatching time.
This provides a satisfying end to the Sensui/Chapter Black arc when leaving you ready and waiting for the lull after the storm to pick up again...as we all know it will.
Violence in the uncut version's typical fantasy fighting; the cut version's more like a Disney-esque martial arts sequence. Swearing is also there in the uncut, though there's nothing worse then what you'll hear in any PG/PG-13 movie: d*mn, h*ll are all I can remember. If you don't want to hear it then pick up the cut version...that ought to be safe considering your little brother's watching it on Cartoon Network alongside Dragonball Z.
