Karama stepping in for Yusuke this round was really smart. Yusuke would have probably been duped by Gama's paint techniques leaving him vulnerable against Touya. This way it leaves Yusuke available to go up against the straightforward heavy hitters like Bakken and Jin
While what you're saying is logical, it only makes sense if both of them had the insight of Team Masho's ability beforehand. They were pitted against this team after immediately fighting the last one. No rest of time to get to know the next group of fighters. So they wouldn't have time to know who has what abilities. Kurama's objective was more simple than that: To get as much wins as possible before he goes down so that Yusuke's energy is not spent when it's his turn. Increasing their chances of proceeding to the next stage of the tournament.
@@xnortheast1106 lethality is a degree of deadliness and to add more emphasis onto it I added the word deadly to help stem just how severe and dangerous Kurama’s deadliness is. So his lethal deadliness is to the highest of the highest degree
@Thicc Thighs The three strongest in order and in my opinion are Kurama, hiei and yusuke. Kuwabara's not terrible but I would really like to see him get more character development because I feel like he holds too much back
my god, kurama is everything amazing xD he's smart, he's cunning, he's strong and powerful. he's even kind to his enemies. [he's pretty fucking hot too >D]
i liked Gama's powers, they were very cool, paint yourself to get boosted by your own demonic energy, paint enemies to debuff them with your own demonic energy, sounds like the concept for a Strategy Battle RPG character if you ask me.
He's referring to the fact that those at the top can simply attack you with their energy not requiring the use of their arms and legs to attack you. We see this for example when Younger Toguro just with his aura cut Yusuke.
Every character in the show is an amateur compared to him. Kurama is the single most skilled character in the entire series, and he is only ever vulnerable due to lacking the raw power to fully exploit that skill against more powerful foes.
Yusuke is no amateur. He does do more than just punching and kicking. The lesson Kurama said is an easy thing in fights that surelly Genkai knows, ergo, she absolutely teached it to Yusuke and her students.
lol kurama rules he beat him not with his punches or kicks, but with his freaking hair. and then the classic line"only an amateur depends on his arms and legs for victory" lol wow
haha i know most people dont respect most english dubs but you gotta understand alot of us like them because we grew up on them and it brings back such good memories. for ex. yu yu hakusho, rurouni kenshin, gundam wing and of course dragonball z. so cut these animes some slack
@lybratanz I think it's because in Japan most girls are voice actors, while in America, we have alot of dudes who would love to be a voice in an anime. ^_^
Kurama is the best of the best when it comes to fighting these sorts of battles. Only one with his intelligence and cunning can come through in situations like this.
Basically the owner of team masho (the one they're fighting) cheated and got those two declared medically unfit to fight, and by the time they realized they were tricked it was too late.
Dude, Gama, you're fighting someone who is still a YOKAI. And he's known as an ANIMAL and a TRICKSTER spirit! How are you gonna not figure out he might just maybe, JUST maybe might have a few tricks up his sleeve that don't involve his HUMAN ARMS AND LEGS ffs
Kurama is a badass but Yoko doesnt give a fuck yes i know their the same person but Yoko would kill his enemy without giving it a second thought at least what i've seen from Yoko which is probably why Hiei wont fight Kurama
Hiei actually said that he recruited Kurama specifically to avoid facing him in combat. He might not have known too much, but Hiei is not bad at guessing his opponents power. It's why few people face him and survive.
I used to think what Hiei would do in this situation, if he couldn´t use his energy. Then I thought, he wouldn´t be in this situation, he would kill Gama right off the bat xD
Yep. Hiei's pretty consistently critical of Kurama letting his curiosity get the better of him. Kurama's strategy is to learn his enemy's move set in its entirety, then absolutely crush them in a way that leaves nothing to chance. Hiei goes for the blitz as quickly as he can so any fancy tricks his enemy may have up their sleave stay up their sleave and never become a factor in the fight. Both strategies have strengths and weaknesses.
@@YouthRightsRadicalInteresting how Kuromomotaro did the Kurama strategy when he fought Hiei and almost won. It was one of his few fights that wasn't a stomp.
I always get distracted by Kurama's gorgeous face. Still the prettiest boy for me. I love his eyes. Eren Yeager's eyes are the same, but more intense and glowing. No wonder I love Eren too.
I can't agree with Gama's choice to die to seal Kurama it makes no sense. I get that he was willing to give his life to win. But at this point you gotta be thinking Toguro's team is the hardest fight. You can't afford to lose a member this early in the tournament to make one win easier. It's just bad strategy.
Yu Yu Hakusho characters have lots of reference to Dragon Ball Z. In this scene, Gama has a strong reference to Frieza because of the following attributes: 1. Gama's head bandana is oval like Frieza's purple "coating" or "shell" on his head 2. Make-up and lipstick, including the marking on body parts like shoulders and chest have the same positioning as with Frieza's purple marks around his body. 3. Gama's pale skin is like that of Frieza's white skin. 4. When he was chopped by Kurama's Rose Whip, it resembles how Trunks sliced Mecha Frieza.
The chest is different, it's the upper center, whereas Freeza & Cell have their core part looking like armour. And when he gets sliced, he's still capable of fighting, and Kurama implies he could still survive.
1:40 even though it's filler dub dialogue Gama's speech here could be applied to otaku culture and how normies took over it. imagine he's like "tell me weeb traitor what does the word anime bring to mind? normie females no doubt, a little cosplay to attract the next Chad. disgusting isn't it, the way normies manage to bastardize everything they touch. now few weebs know its original power." prophetic stuff, eerie.
Hiei asks the same question at 3:11. It's Kurama's preference to study his opponent's moves before attacking. If you watch his fights he never attacks first, he always jumps around like this
@@abduljah9355 I wonder what would happen if Kurama fought someone who's also reading their opponent before attaching? Someone's who's not really a "chatter" type of opponent. Like... Super mysterious you can even read what's on their mind 🤔
Kurama plans ahead and he doesn't like to jump in right away in case the opponent has trick up their sleeve. That sometimes does mean the opponent would be able to land hit on Kurama. But whenever Kurama is done planning his opponents pretty much always die in a gruesome way. He goes for the sure kill instead of the quick kill basically.
@frostea7043 The only exception was his fight with Elder Tuguro/Gormet. He destroyed them on sight. Of course, he was beyond angry at being forced to kill a small, ignorant child.
Yes but in the process of dying he got Kurama covered in blood and temporarily he had his energy sealed during the fight with Touya and he then passed out after beating Touya just barely. Then Bakkun went and pissed yusuke off by beating Kurama up a little bit
I'm wondering if anyone noticed Kurama looks close to Kenshin😭 Like um, but is no one talking about why Kurama is so pretty boy mode in the whole series?..hes even majestic too
lol True who wouldn't cheer for Kurama and yes Botan cares about him but she's worried about them all. I've heard tales that the creator at first wanted to make Kurama and Hiei lovers in the series but the editor said No. That stinks! They should have done it I mean look at the number of HxK fans there are it would've helped boost things tremendously.
"Only an amateur depends on arms & legs for victory."

Who said?
Epic....damn.

Yeeess Kurama get rid of the outfit!
I like how at first Kurama's studying Gama, he's all curious and wary, his body language really reminds me of an inquisitive fox. XD
Human fox. 😂😁🤣
Probably the point
That's why he's a demon fox lol
@@starle.studi0z yeah, and the fact that they manage to showcase some of that through his body language is really cool :)
One of my favorite scenes in the OVA that shows Hiei and Kurama meeting is them using Kurama’s shadow on the floor to show Yoko
Karama stepping in for Yusuke this round was really smart. Yusuke would have probably been duped by Gama's paint techniques leaving him vulnerable against Touya. This way it leaves Yusuke available to go up against the straightforward heavy hitters like Bakken and Jin
True. I really think Kurama could have beaten Bakken if he hadn't had to fight two other rounds back to back. Bakken's powers are not that good.
Kurama is such a great strategist I swear.
@@abduljah9355 Bakken has zero chance against Kurama..in normal fight..
Bakken is a heavy hitter lol

lethality and deadly mean the same thing
@@xnortheast1106 lethality is a degree of deadliness and to add more emphasis onto it I added the word deadly to help stem just how severe and dangerous Kurama’s deadliness is.
So his lethal deadliness is to the highest of the highest degree
Sickest hair flip in history
he whips his hair back and forth
Should've known better than to corner a fox, Gama. They have a tendency to show their teeth.
A cornered fox is more dangerous than a jackal!
"only an amatuer depends on arms and legs for victory." well he sure told him.
And Kurama... is no amateur.
I think if given enough spirit energy, Kurama is probably the most dangerous opponent in the show.
ShadowKinesis true. He is the smartest and most ruthless fighter with all the tools.
@@kylesteinhauser2535 true all that he fights die in ruthless way
@Thicc Thighs The three strongest in order and in my opinion are Kurama, hiei and yusuke. Kuwabara's not terrible but I would really like to see him get more character development because I feel like he holds too much back
Kurama is easily the most dangerous. Kuwabara has the potential to be the strongest. Yusuke the toughest. Hiei the stealthiest.
@@c.galindo9639 Kuwabara lol
Gama is definately one of my favorite YYH characters. His concept is very good, and I love his power. One of the coolest. His death really moved me.
Agreed
Really enjoyed the concept of Gama's powers. Wish we could have seen more expanded upon, it's a shame he had to die.
Facts I loved his powers. What a waste.
Gamma, Jin, and Touya lost with honor (the former being the bravest since he gave up his life for his teammates).
Bakken and Risho are cheaters
If only he sealed Kurama's power sooner, then he would've lost the match without dying, probably.
@@GoodBoy1196Yeah, would've liked to see more make up moves other than a power boost, creating weights and energy locking.
I like how Gama went and sacrificed his life to help his team of five beat a team of two lol
And they still fucking lost...
Because they didn't count on the power of simping for Yukina
@@99jean88 even if they did, that would still be 5 vs. 3.
And Gama sacrified his life for it. What a waste...
Gama felt like a fool for getting hair whipped maybe that's why.
Gama was a team player and if they had won he would've been the mvp
@@darkpaladin. True. It's sad that Jinn and Touya never mention him again. He wasn't a bad guy.
Even Toguro was impressed 6:36

Ha Yusuke “ don’t leave me alone with these guys”
my god, kurama is everything amazing xD he's smart, he's cunning, he's strong and powerful. he's even kind to his enemies. [he's pretty fucking hot too >D]
So are you going to make him a religion?
lol, "kind to his enemies" pretty sure almost everyone he fought died in the most horrible way lol
@@TheWolfsHD kind as in reasonable but if they persist in fighting him he doesn’t show any mercy
Those words before the clip ends.

No one wants to ask you thirsty
“THE MAKE UP OF CHAINS” I say that in my head a lot after I first saw this
Kurama is soo smart dang he woop that ugly guy down!
kurama braids his hair with vine :)
I love this show very much, so much suspense
Ha. Who needs arms and legs to win a one on one brutal fight?
Punching and kicking is for fools without long, flowing, beautiful hair.
"Only amatures depend on arms and legs for victory" -Shuichi Minamino (Kurama)
One of the best character in this show
He was only there for a short time
But it felt like forever
R.I.P Gama
I disagree. He's ok...
Do you write that for like any character
From 06:30 : Lots of PURPLE BLOOD (liters of it) and Gama uses it to mark Kuramas limbs to paralize them (what happens after this video).
Wai that means... everyone else in this entire show is an armature EXCEPT him. So much for the main character.
He's referring to the fact that those at the top can simply attack you with their energy not requiring the use of their arms and legs to attack you. We see this for example when Younger Toguro just with his aura cut Yusuke.

I love to watch YYH dubbed and sub. I usually watch dubbed with the subs on. But only with this anime.
Fun fact Togashi actually considered eng dub for yu yu really good
You just named my entire childhood right there. Just rewatched Gundam Wing.
Kurama is such a badass I love it 🍀
Agreed
6:54 At the end I thought he was going to say "Only you can prevent Forest fire's" 🐻🌹
@lybratanz I think it's because in Japan most girls are voice actors, while in America, we have alot of dudes who would love to be a voice in an anime. ^_^
One of my favorite Kurama fights
Kurama: loses fight.
Also Kurama: only an amateur depends on victory for victory.
Kurama is the best of the best when it comes to fighting these sorts of battles. Only one with his intelligence and cunning can come through in situations like this.
kuruma is an S class demon that decide to be a good.

I LOVE KURAMA! *Kurama....please be my lover....*
You should make him a religion
"I could care less"
Like how do people let that happen on a professional level
Gama's not even real, and he puts make up better than I do.
Me: I'm straight, alright?
Kurama at 6:54: Not anymore.
Me: Well shit...
The guy in hunter hunter who makes holes on his body is like the precursor to thjs
by kuramas logic every figther on earth is an amature XD
Or the vast majority of them anyway
Compared to him, yes.
Cause i forgot,
Can somebody tell me why Genkai and Hiei did not fight in this round,
And why they where inside that electric thing?
Thanks.
Basically the owner of team masho (the one they're fighting) cheated and got those two declared medically unfit to fight, and by the time they realized they were tricked it was too late.
This dude reminds me of Gollum frm Lord of the Rings..
Enforcing zetzu eh? Gama must be a specialist.
Dude, Gama, you're fighting someone who is still a YOKAI. And he's known as an ANIMAL and a TRICKSTER spirit! How are you gonna not figure out he might just maybe, JUST maybe might have a few tricks up his sleeve that don't involve his HUMAN ARMS AND LEGS ffs
Daft punk was in the crowd
In the Philippines Curama's name is Dennis..
Dennis "the plant manipulating" Menace
And Hiei is Vincent... But he doesn't use projectiles like Vincent Valentine... But he can transform.
I heard the animators in the Philippines originally called him Denise because they thought he was a female not sure if that's true but DAMN....
There is no way Yusuke could have defended himself against Gama
Yusuke can lift 2000 pounds. He can punch Gama if he can.

That seems like a big stretch
It's probably coincidental.
The chest is different, it's the upper center, whereas Freeza & Cell have their core part looking like armour.
And when he gets sliced, he's still capable of fighting, and Kurama implies he could still survive.
