Yu Yu Hakusho. It is the greatest anime I have ever seen.
Its storyline is captivating. It has a great blend of action, drama, science fiction, comedy, and philosophy. Additionally, there are a number of plot twists that manifest as the story progresses. Overall, this adds a lot of suspense to the series. Not everything is clear cut and predictable, which makes it fun to watch.
The show's five main characters are excellent. Yusuke, Kuwabara, Kurama, Hiei, and Genkai are fleshed out well and receive good character development over the course of the series. I must also point out that the series has great antagonists. Most of them are deep characters who have understandable motivations behind their actions. One in particular is Younger Toguro, my personal favorite. At first, he comes across as a two-dimensional villain without any true character, but as the plot progresses, one learns about his past and what his motivations are. He is not an evil character, but rather someone who fell from grace and seeks punishment for his sins. By the end of the Dark Tournament saga, I understood him, as did Yusuke and the other characters.
The fights are entertaining. They are exciting and well paced. The characters also do not battle each other senselessly. There is always a reason behind the fighting in the show. Furthermore, the art and animation are excellent. In particular, the way in which the fights and action scenes are animated is outstanding. I also like the show's OST. It has some great songs, such as Doing an Unbalanced Kiss.
