The series opens with the death of its chief protagonist, juvenile delinquent Yusuke Urameshi. Two movies, Yu Yu Hakusho: The Movie and Yu Yu Hakusho the Movie: Poltergeist Report were also released in 19 respectively.

The anime was produced by Studio Pierrot, and licensed by Madman Entertainment, Funimation Entertainment, and MVM Films for English audiences. The manga was published first by Shueisha in Japanese, and later in English by Viz Media. The image came from maiken2051.YuYu Hakusho is a Japanese manga and anime series created by Yoshihiro Togashi. The above description came from VirtuaFantice (addition), and was edited by yours truly. Her age is questionable, too, but a lot of fans say that she can't be that old since she is a relatively new ferry woman according to her and other facts mentioned on the show. That is just a legend since in the series, Botan's origin is never mentioned. In many fanfics, people mention that Botan was once human but was killed somehow and ended up becoming ferry woman that way. She is known for being sweet, annoying, talkative, trustworthy, a good friend, and a great assistant who relates a lot to a Neko (cat) due to her other famous "Nyaaa" which is when you know she's up to no good. Either that or smashing her way through demons using her Oar and/or baseball bat. Her most used talent, besides riding her Oar, is healing. Throughout the series, Botan assists Yusuke and the others of the tantei with their missions, helping a great deal. When first introduced, Yusuke Urameshi had realized his unfortunate death and she appears reciting her famous line, "Bingo Bingo Bingo, you win the prize!" She is Koenma's most trustworthy guide to the spirit world. The above description came from Who Wants to Know?, and was edited by yours truly.Īlthough her age and origin is unknown, Botan is the best darn ferry woman in the reikai. As people join Yusuke's crew, Botan helps them out as well ( Kuwabara also has a crush on her), and she even helps to protect Keiko during the Saint Beast's assault on the Living World. In addition to her insider's insight, she relays news from Koenma and provides various tools for Yusuke and his crew to use, such as the psychic spyglass (lets Yusuke see through objects) and the communicator. While normally invisible as the Grim Reaper, as Yusuke assistant she becomes as real as you or me (she just doesn't change her appearance like Koenma), though she soon changes clothes to match the times. Once Yusuke returns to life and becomes a Spirit Detective, Botan becomes his assistant. In any event, Botan helps Yusuke through his ordeal to regain his life. Instead of a robed skeleton with a scythe he encounters a young lady in a kimono riding an oar like a witch rides a broom (it's all based on Japanese tradition, even the oar: it symbolizes the boats that carry the departed souls away). Trust me, even Yusuke was surprised that the "Grim Reaper" wasn't what he expected. She's the conveyor of the recently departed (such as Yusuke at the beginning of the series) to the Spirit World. Please note that Botan is only called the Grim Reaper because, well, it fits her job description.
