That thing about the BuKurmi needs to be on a seperate page. Sweetfreek 01:16, 7 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Sorry but I don't understand, what are you referring to? Plus±Minus 21:19, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

I made some really drastic changes to the information. It no longer needs expansion, so the notice can be taken off now. Flying Shadow 11:44, 24 Nov 2005

I made the attack section by using my Dvds from my collection that had the information for three hours to get all the attack names, both English and Japanese. From 24.20.153.45 on November 27.

There is some wrong info on here. In Ep where Hiei fight the guy that put in his eye. It is shown that the surgeon was the guy who attacked and killed Kurama...Not some "Bounty Hunter" Irishgt 21:21, 6 November 2006 (UTC)


I noticed alot of somewhat inaccurate/incomplete information on the page (or is it just because i've became a Kurama otaku?). I've got these information from watching the Chinese subbed anime (not the slipshot effort that goes around the net but something better that came from my tv channel) twice.
1, The "bounty hunter" part is incorrect, but it's not the surgeon (in fact, youko and him never met before their battle in Makai tournament... I think you've mixed up Hiei's flashbacks) but the Renkai Special Forces (i'll add in more details/evidence later).
2, It is interesting how the author seperate Youko and Shuichi as 2 seperate beings in the same body, but that is not actually the case. Kurama (now) is both Minamino Shuichi and Kurama both, and he used to be only Youko, but the seemingly complete seperation of the 2 like described in this article isn't right... I'll check the manga on this since the anime doesn't seem to explain anything completely.
3, Concerning the Forlon Hope (or Mirror of Darkness as I know it) in the anime, Yuusuke didn't offer his life in place of Kurama's. It's the same as in the manga where he wanted to split the cost of life energy (split the cost? yes that's what friends do ^_^) But then i guess the English anime changed some lines
4, The The Reverse Treasure Box was supposed to turn Kurama into a state before birth, not baby form, so it's working correctly. So because Kurama was a Youko before being born as a human baby, of course he became Youko
5, The Okunenju Tree was not really his "attack". Rather, he planted Sakura seeds in the roots of the ancient fossil tree and revived it so that the tree's branches can be used to attack (not roots! they have sakura flowers growing on them!)
Ok i've written alot. I'd have edited the page myself but somehow i always get to a blank editing page when i try to edit sections and the disambiguation page when i try to edit the entire thing. Going to try again later at home. --Hikari no sakura 09:32, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Grammer

This page has quite a few grammatical errors. I'm trying to fix it up, but it's hard for me to do without rewriting most of the paragraph... Plus±Minus 20:15, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

Okay, I edited it up to Chapter Black, someone else might have to add that part since I missed quite a few of those episodes. Plus±Minus 21:15, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
Also started editing the attacks. I'll finish later if someone else doesn't do it.


[edit] Inu-Yasha connection?

This is something I've long been wondering about. I think Yoko Kurama looks A LOT like Inu-Yasha. More bishounen-looking, of course, but still very Inu-Yasha-like. Did Rumiko Takahashi ever read/watch "Yu Yu Hakusho", and did she draw inspiration from Yoko Kurama? Brutannica 23:01, 16 April 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Concerning Yomi

I feel that there needs to be an article about Yomi. I personally do not know much about him outside of the fanon, so if anyone could begin an article about him, I think it would be much appriciated.

    • True. Unfortunately, articles for most of the main characters need a lot of major re-writing and editing still, so while I don't mind volunteering for the article, I'd like to prioritize the main character pages first. Yomi is open to anyone who's interested in starting up the article if I haven't gotten around to it yet, though. Mirshariff 10:00, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
    • I think that the personality section is too large and needs to be trimmed down since it practically is giving away some of the plot that is mentioned in the History section. -Adv193 15:47, 25 October 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Trivia Problem

Regarding the claim that fox demons are usually evil in Asian folklore: wrong. Even just looking up the wiki on "kitsune" aka fox spirits will provide a plethora of examples and sources that show that the fox demons are actually considered good omens, albeit suspicious in the sense that they lack human morals. Also, the vampiric or succibi-esque aspects are incorrect as a generalization -- those qualities exist from time to time, yes, but are not the 'norm' for fox demons. Someone want to remedy this? For the moment I'm just going to cut the incorrect info.
