"In episode 87, Power Between the Teeth, Koenma prepares to use his most powerful weapon, the Mafuukan. This weapon can create a barrier that can trap S class demons with ease and seal the barrier. Koenma attacks, but Yusuke the pacifier out of Koenma's hand. What is Yusuke planning?
In episode 88, The True Face of Sensui, Sensui reveals his most powerful, and purest, personality, Shinobu. Shinobu unleashes his most powerful weapon, an energy that suprasses Spirit Energy and Demon Energy - the Sacred Energy. Shinobu at one point in the fight snatches the pacifier. Koenma unleashes the Mafuukan to trap him. But, there is one fatal flaw. The Mafuukan specializes in Demon Energy, not Sacred Energy. After a struggle, Shinobu breaks free of the barrier. Yusuke knows now that there is only one way to beat him - death. If his friends witness his death, surely they will bring out the power to defeat this S-class monster. Swallowing his pride, Yusuke is ready for something he has experienced before...
In episode 89, Death of a Spirit Detective, Kuwabara remembers his past with Urameshi. He remembers how to break free of the barrier seperating him and the others from Yusuke's fight. He powers up, but fails, he has not yet mastered the Jigen Tou. Kuwabara breaks into tears, wondering why fate would do this. He should be able to unleash a power just in the knick of time, saving Yusuke's life. He continues to try, but to no avail. Hiei and Kurama ask Itsuki to let them out, to help Yusuke, since they don't stand a chance. Itsuki refuses, knowing they will retreat. Yusuke stands up straight, knowing he cannot win. Sensui sprints towards him. Kuwabara's emotions overcome him, and he unleashes the Jigen Tou. He slices through the beast, and lands in the cave, just as Sensui deals the fatal blow...
In episode 90, Attempting Revenge, Kuwabara, Kurama, and Hiei lead a full on assault against Sensui. Hiei and Kurama (now as Yoko) jump to A-class levels and attack. They follow him to Demon World, where they continue to fight, but are constantly pushed away by Sensui's awesome power. They are all willing to die to avenge Yusuke, but in Spirit World, King Yama seems to know something, saying that if he had known sooner, he would have NEVER put Yusuke on such a case. He sends out a special Spirit Detective Force to earth. What could he know?"
Perfect.

"Great! Even though it's not out yet, I've seen them in Japanese and they're great! Anyway, below is the summaries for the next four episodes if you want to know. Power Beneath the Teeth: As Kazuya is about to kill Yusuke, Koenma appears. Using his secret weapon, Koenma distracts Sensui while Yusuke regains his strength, but is it enough?The True Face of Sensui:
As the battle continues, Yusuke refuses the Prince of Spirit World to help. As Yusuke makes this firm decision, the hole to Demon World opens.Death of a Spirit Detective (The saddest episode next to the Death of Genkai.)
As the hole opens, Yusuke continues to fight Sensui however knowing he cannot beat him. As the fight continues, Kuwabara gets angered by Sensui beating up Yusuke and summons the Demensional Sword cutting Itsuki's face and escaping Ura-Otoko. But it is too late. Yusuke Urameshi has been destroyed.Attempting Revenge:
The Hole to Demon World has opened. Spirit Detective Yusuke Urameshi has been murdered and all hope for the human race is lost. As Kuwabara, Yoko Kurama and Hiei try to avenge their fallen comrade, Botan returns to Spirit World and confronts King Yemma. Yemma then explains that he has sent out the Spirit Warriors to stop Yusuke Urameshi. What does he mean? Meanwhile, the battle bewteen Sensui and Kuwabara and the others continue into the depths of Makai.

Is this truly the end for Kuwabara, Kurama, Hiei and the Living World? What's more, Yemma has yet to reveal Yusuke's secret weapon..."
Another Home Run for Yu Yu

"I have been collecting Yu Yu for a couple of years now and I always thought of it as a fighting show that can rival Dragonball Z. I finally got my hands on the volume 6 of the "Chapter Black" Saga and I wasn't disappointed one bite. The action in these episodes will keep you at the edge of your seat and the drama even made me shed a few tears. I like this saga more than the previous two because it's cool to watch all the powerful tecniques that Sensui does. I think he is, hands down, the most powerful villian in the series. Let's face it, even the younger Tugoro wouldn't stand a chance against him and this volume proves my point when you see the Sacred Energy being summoned. I also want to say that I'm getting tired of some people saying bad things about Kuwabara. He may not be the strongest of the four, but he has more heart and more determination than anybody else and these episodes show you how far he is willing to go. Overall, "In the Blood" is the best volume in the saga thus far and the show just keeps getting better and better. This is a must for Yu Yu fans and you shouldn't miss the chance to see it."
The best chapter out there so far

"I have been looking foward to this chapter to watch for a long time and having watched all the others we went from finding out about the seven psychics to kuwabara's getting his new dimension sword to Yusuke's and Hiei's fight and so on. Well all of that is just child's play compared to this Chapter. Yusuke is still fighting with Sensui and he ain't fairing too well and yusuke knows it and he eventually get killed yet again. Why do they always kill off the strong one first, if you ask me they should have killed kuwabara off and kept him dead seeing that he is probably the weakest fighter. I don't care if does have that new spirit sword because he can't use it properly let alone get close enough to use on sensui. When yusuke dies again this angers everyone including yes, Hiei. Kurama turns into Yoko Kurama due to his overwhelming anger over yusuke's death and kuwabara learns to control his dimension sword. Even though the gangs powers have increased they are still no match for Sensui. But Yusuke doesn't stay dead for long but I'm not going to tell you why it would spoil the next chapters suprise. If your a fan of this saga then i strongly sugest picking this one up. You'll be glad you did."
This volume is going to be the best, hands down.

"I have eagerly been awaiting vol. 25 in the series for quite some time now... the other five volumes of the Tunnel/Chapter Black storyline have only served to whet my appetite. But there's even more cool stuff in this volume... we finally get to see Koenma in action, Sensui's final personality comes out, Kurama transforms back into Youko Kurama, Kuwabara goes crazy with the dimension sword, and one of the main YYH heroes dies! This volume is going to rock so much, it won't be funny! (...)"
