"In this volume of the great anime Yu Yu Hakusho, Yusuke's back from Genkai's training and recieves a video tape from Hiei with the details of a new mission from Koenma. He and Kuwabara have to save a koorime or female ice demon who was captured by a greedy business man Tarukane who wanted to invest on the Tear Gems that koorimes can produce with their tears. Kuwabara falls head over heels for the koorime named Yukina who turns out to be Hiei's twin sister (but Kuwa never finds out) and so starts the humorous rivalry between Kuwabara and Hiei ^_^ Yusuke, Kuwabara and Botan go to Tarukane's mansion, and have to fight off demons at the gate, and also have to face 3 stronger ones once inside the mansion. But all those demons were prepared by the 2 Toguro Brothers that Tarukane hired. The infamous Toguro Brothers are really powerful, the older one can transform himself into a weapon and the younger one can become stronger by his muscles. Yusuke and Kuwabara manage to defeat the brothers somehow... or do they? Recommended to Hiei fans, cuz it's his sis's first appearence, and you also get to see his soft side ^_^ Though the downside to it is that Hiei and Kurama's appearences are quite brief."
Enter Yukina

"Yu Yu Hakusho: The Spirit Detective: Vol. &: - Rescue Yukina contains four episodes, 22 - 25. Here the lovely aqua-haired ice apparition is introduced. Kuwabara instantly falls in love with her when he sees her on the mission videotape sent by Koenma. His "mission of love" is fueled by his desire to meet the girl he feels will be his true love. Little does Kuwabara know that Yukina is also his arch-rival Hie's sister!
Yukina is being held prisoner by a despicable Yakuza boss who is not only aware of the Spirit World, but employs demons. He wants Yukina's tears, which turn into priceless pearl-like jewels.
This DVD has a LOT of laughs mostly provided by Koenma and George!"
Perfect.

"I ordered this at Christmas, it was a nice gift for myself, I love watching it around my friends, its nice but it does have alot of bloodshed in it. Also it shows what Yukina goes through during the movie, and we all know that Hiei and Yukina are brother and sister. I was disappointed I saw it on Cartoon Network thinking it would stop there but the dark tournament came, but yes, Rescue Yukina is a great DVD with four episodes in it, plus there is alot of stuff packed into it. Watch it in Japanese, or English, and also in Subtitles. Also it also shows Kuwabara acting goofy which I think you all know he usually does that. Anyway if you buy it...good choice."
