Part 3

Spirit Detective Saga

Today’s long haired anime guy of the day, per request, is:

Yu Yu Hakusho 2017 #YuYear event

January 29 prompt: #8 “Powerful Eyebrows” Musashi, Kazemaru and Kibano Platinum Carbon (Pigmented) Sepia in glass dip pen, watercolour

The other final contestants in the search for Genkai’s successor. It's pretty rare to see fanworks with these guys, but they (and their eyebrows) really were quite powerful! Any one of them would have made a qualified (and probably more respectable) heir to the Spirit Wave.

Of the three I find Kazemaru the most interesting. He's a ninja who works as a private bodyguard for VIPs, and his Reikihou (Spirit Cannon) is already a similar technique to the Spirit Gun and Spirit Wave so he would have been a great fit as Genkai’s student. And he can emit powerful spirit energy while singing karaoke lmao (too bad he’s a terrible singer). I personally do think he had a fairly decent chance of defeating Randou were it not for Yusuke’s amazing dumb luck.

Alas, these three had the misfortune of finding themselves in a shounen manga and therefore had their butts kicked by two 14 year old punks and now nobody remembers them. Thus ends our cautionary tale.
