Netflix's Yu Yu Hakusho's pacing problems prove the five-episode format was not the best way to adapt the manga. Based on the 90s manga series of the same name by Yoshihiro Togashi, Yu Yu Hakusho centers around high school delinquent Yusuke Urameshi's role as a spirit detective in the afterlife after discovering he died saving a little boy's life. Known for its strong themes of change and forgiveness, Yu Yu Hakusho's live-action TV adaptation should have been as successful as Netflix's One Piece. However, the poor pacing of the adaptation's plot results in a show that feels hollow and rushed.
