YuYu Hakusho, Vol. 13

Description

A delinquent's gotta do what he's gotta do...in the afterlife. Yusuke Urameshi was a tough teen delinquent until one selfless act changed his life...by ending it. When he died saving a little kid from a speeding car, the afterlife didn't know what to do with him, so it gave him a second chance at life. Now, Yusuke is a ghost with a mission, performing good deeds at the behest of Botan, the ferrywoman of the River Styx, and Koenma, the pacifier-sucking judge of the dead. This is it folks--the conclusion of the long and deadly Dark Tournament. But don't worry--there's lots more to come because a new adventure starts with this volume! After the Dark Tournament ends, Yusuke and friends come home for a much deserved rest. The vacation is cut short when Yusuke is taken hostage by three classmates who have recently gained strange powers. It's up to Kuwabara and friends to try to rescue him. But without their star fighter's abilities, will they be up to the task?
