Yu Yu Hakusho 6

NOTE: Shiraku has disbanded and will no longer be releasing YYH. I'm putting the 17-6, 17-7, and 17-8 up since they're already done, but I won't be translating any further unless there's both a group that is willing to dedicate themselves to the project and a significant interest in the fan community in seeing it continue. If you use this for a scan, make a note telling those who download it to PM or e-mail me (hisshouburaiken at gmail) that they'd like to see it finished.

Yuusuke: Y-you bastards...

Yuusuke: I handicap myself this much and that's STILL the best you can do?!

Page 4:
Koenma: I'm not being blamed for anything.
At least not officially.

But you mustn't let your guard down. I know my dad, he's thinking of something.

Yuusuke: You mean like a way to take me out? Good deal.

I'm bored as hell.

Page 5:
Koenma: Do you regret it?
Yuusuke: What?

Koenma: Returning to the human world.

Yuusuke: It feels like...something's missing.
But maybe it's like how you always want stuff you can't have.

I'm sure I'd have felt the same if I chose to stay in the Demon World.

Koenma: You should talk to Genkai.
I'm sure she'd be happy to help you find the answers you need.

Yuusuke: Somehow, I don't think so...

Page 6:
Genkai: You're acting like a sniveling little wimp.
It's your ass, wipe it yourself.

Yuusuke: See?
SFX: WHAM x a million

Genkai: You know, if you decided you were sick of this world, and wanted to obliterate it
I no longer have the power to stop you.
SFX: KATHWACK

Yuusuke: Where the hell did that come from?!
Small text: Shit, I lost AGAIN.

Genkai: Everyone has something they can break if they reach a certain point.
Toys, pets, lovers, families, countries.
Yours is just bigger than everyone else's.

Page 7:
Genkai: If you end up wanting to destroy it in the end, come see me before you do.
I'll let you have my life first.

Yuusuke: I've never considered doing anything as retarded as THAT.
Genkai: I hope you'll keep it that way.

Take this.

Yuusuke: An address?

Genkai: That's where Satou Kuroko, formerly Sanada Kuroko, lives.
She was the FIRST Spirit Detective.

She's closer to your position than me.
Even if you only end up chatting, I think it's worth your time to meet her.

Page 8:
Teach: Urameshi!
Absent AGAIN?

There are those who believe that a single rotten apple will spoil the whole bunch.
But you, my friends, are not apples. You are people.
I hope that you'll all become the people who look at the trash in your class and think, "I don't want to be like that."

Kuwabara: Rrrr-

Page 9:
Yuusuke: Damnit, why do I feel like she's just handing me off to someone else...

SFX: Caw caw

Yuusuke: All the way up? Yeesh.
Sign: Private Property
Beware of dogs!

Yuusuke: Whoa, man!
There's weird bones all over the place!.

Page 10:
Yuusuke: Killer intents...Two of 'em.
SFX: Dasssssh

Page 11:
Yuusuke: Kids?!

Kaisei: Another evil demon in disguise is after mom!
Fubuki: You're not tough enough to face our mom!

Page 12:
Yuusuke: Beat it, kids.
Go play hero and bad-guy somewhere else.

Kaisei: We're not here to talk!

Yuusuke: Whoa.
SFX: Whap whap

Yuusuke: Hoop-
Whoo-
SFX: Dodge dodge

Page 13:
Kaise: Crap!

Fubuki: Eeeei!
SFX: Whoosh

Kaisei: WAGH-
SFX: THWACK
Fubuki: Aa-

Kaisei: Owieeeee...
Fubuki: Darn it!

Yuusuke: Neener neener neeeeeener!
Catch me if you can!

Fubuki: Shoot, he's pretty good!
Kaisei: Then we'll get serious, too!

Page 14:
Kids: Sou Ryuu Hou! (Double Dragon Cannon!)
SFX: GOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGO

Yuusuke: Hn!

Kuroko: Kaisei, Fubuku!
Stop that this instant!

Kaisei: Mom!
Fubuki: Okay, we stopped!

Page 15:
Kuroko: You must be Yuusuke-kun.

Yuusuke: And you're Kuroko-san?

Kuroko: Your master told me I should expect you.

Sorry about the kids, I've trained them to attack whenever they sense you-ki.
But they know your face now, so they won't try anything if you come again.

Yuusuke: So the "dogs" I was supposed to "beware of"...
Kuroko: Yes, it's them. They're nastier than the meanest dogs around.

Yuusuke: And the bones on the path?
Kuroko: All demons...probably.

Page 16:
Kaisei: Ura-Meshi Yuu-suke?
What a weird name

Box: Husband, Satou Shougo - Author

Shougo: Here you are.
Yuusuke: What about YOU guys?

Kuroko: Introduce yourselves, children.

Kaisei: I'm Sanada Kaisei! I'm 9 and I like watching TV!
Fubuki: I'm Sanada Fubuki! I'm 8 and I like Hagiwara Masato! (H: Some Japanese TV star)

Yuusuke: Sanada? Not Satou?
Kaisei: Sanada sounds cooler.

Kaisei: Satou's...just kinda lame.
Fubuki small text: Dad should've taken mom's name
Fubuki: Yeah, it's too soft.
Shougo: Sniffle

Page 17:
Yuusuke: That's YOU?!
Kuroko Small text: I got along very well with that girl to my right.
Kuroko: Hahahahaha, I started as a Spirit Detective when I was 14. Three years later I'd grown 40

centimeters, but my weight didn't change one bit!

Kaisei: In 5 years I'm gonna be a Spirit Detective too!
Fubuki: You'll never make it, you like pretty girls too much!

Kuroko: Would you care for a drink? I've got liquor and sake, which do you prefer?
Yuusuke: For real? You can read me like a book.
Kids: We want some, too!

Yuusuke: Whoa, whoa, is that really okay? Even I didn't have a drink until I was 10!
Kuroko: It's fine, we only bother with the alcohol when we've got a guest we really like.

Fubuki: Gimme yer bes' shot, Yuuuke! I'll take the full blast!
Yuusuke: Yeah right! Maybe in 10 years!

Kaisei: Man...I'll never forget that night...
Yuusuke: You trained them to do THIS, too, didn't you?
Kuroko: Can you tell?

Page 18:
SFX: SNXXXXXXXXXZZZ

Yuusuke: I heard you quit being a Spirit Detective after you got married?
Kuroko: Yes, that's right.

I met Shinobu-kun just before I got married.

I could sense the extreme depth of his spiritual strength with one glance.
But he looked...sad, and empty.

You don't have to worry about that, though! You'll last another 10 years easily, I guarantee it!
Yuusuke: Heh...they already fired me.

Kuroko: Shougo, why don't you take a look at his future?
Shougo tells fortunes as a hobby - he puts the pros to shame!

Shougo: Give me your hand...and look straight into my eyes.

Page 19:
Shougo: You are not unsatisfied with your current life.
But in the depths of your heart, you desire to be placed in dangerous situations.

Yuuuke: Bingo. You nailed it.

Shougo: If you were to always put yourself first,
you'd never come to a decision during times of confusion.

And whether you like it or not,
that danger is coming for you.

Hokushin: Bingo.
