List of YuYu Hakusho chapters

First tankōbon volume cover, released by Shueisha on April 10, 1991

The YuYu Hakusho manga was written and drawn by Yoshihiro Togashi and was published by Shueisha in the Japanese-language magazine Weekly Shōnen Jump. The series concentrates on the adventures of young delinquent Yusuke Urameshi, who after his death becomes a Spirit Detective, the protector of the Living World against supernatural threats.

The manga consists of 19 tankōbon volumes; the first tankōbon was released on April 10, 1991, and the last one was released on December 2, 1994.[1][2] An anime adaptation of the series of 112 television episodes was directed by Noriyuki Abe and co-produced by Fuji TV, Yomiko Advertising, and Studio Pierrot. In August 2004, Shueisha released a kanzenban edition. Each kanzenban volume features a new cover. The kanzenban release of the series is 15 volumes long (as opposed to the original 19 tankōbon, each book contains more chapters than the basic editions), with two coming out monthly.[3][4]

In 2003, YuYu Hakusho was translated to English and first serialized in North America by Viz Media. The first chapters debuted in the premiere issue of Shonen Jump magazine. The first volume was later released on May 1, 2003,[5] and the last on March 2, 2010.[6] In 2013, Viz Media started to adapt the volumes to a digital format as part of their digital manga releases.[7]
