‘Yu Yu Hakusho’ is finally dropping on Netflix! 33 years after it captivated readers through its manga and anime series, ‘Ghost Fighter’ is having a live-action makeover, debuting exclusively on Netflix this December 14.
The original work by manga legend Yoshihiro Togashi made waves during its four-year serialization in Weekly Shonen Jump from 1990. The series promises to breathe fresh life into the story, with both long-time fans and newcomers poised to witness beloved characters in unprecedented ways.
Netflix’s adaptation of ‘Yu Yu Hakusho’ follows a global production strategy similar to its approach for the acclaimed ‘ONE PIECE’ manga. The platform has committed to maintaining the same level of quality and authenticity as it did with ‘ONE PIECE.’
The production team assembled an international dream team that harnessed advanced CG and VFX technologies worldwide to bring this epic tale to life. Scanline VFX, known as “the world’s most innovative VFX studio,” was instrumental in delivering realistic battle sequences and rendering both human and yokai (spirit) characters.
Over a meticulous five-year production period, the team ensured that every character’s emotions were faithfully represented. The fusion of cutting-edge technology and dedication to the source material makes this adaptation a standout in the realm of live-action anime.
Don’t miss ‘Yu Yu Hakusho’ on December 14, 2023, exclusively on Netflix.”
