List Of Yu Yu Hakusho Episodes (season 3)
This is a list of episodes of the YuYu Hakusho anime, covering what the English language dub considers the "third season" of the series, known as the Chapter Black Saga. The episodes are directed by Akiyuki Arafusa and Noriyuki Abe and produced by Fuji Television, Yomiko Advertising and Studio Pierrot. The episodes were released in North America by Funimation. They are based on the YuYu Hakusho manga series by Yoshihiro Togashi, and adapt the thirteenth through seventeenth volumes of its source material over twenty-eight episodes. The episodes follow Spirit Detective Yusuke Urameshi and his conflict with a former Spirit Detective, Shinobu Sensui, and the latter's desire to open the gateway to Makai.
The episodes aired from February 1994 to August 1994 in Japan on Fuji Television. The first twenty-two English episodes were originally shown from July 2004 to January 2005 on Cartoon Network's Toonami programming block. New episodes began airing in October 2005, with the saga concluding in November 2005.
Three piecestheme music are used for the episodes: one opening theme and two closing themes. The opening theme is "Hohokam no Bakudan" (微笑みの爆弾?, lit. "Smile Bomb") by Matsuko Mawatari. The closing theme for the first seventeen episodes is Hiro Takahashi's "Unbalance na Kiss o Shite" (アンバランスなKissをして?, lit. "Kissing the Unbalanced"), with "Taiyō ga Mata Kagayaku Toki" (太陽がまた輝くとき?, lit. "The Sun is Shining Again"), also by Takahashi, used for the remaining episodes.
Seven DVD compilations, each containing four episodes of the saga, have been released by Funimation.

Famous quotes containing the words list and/or episodes:
“Thirty—the promise of a decade of loneliness, a thinning list of single men to know, a thinning brief-case of enthusiasm, thinning hair.”
—F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
“Twenty or thirty years ago, in the army, we had a lot of obscure adventures, and years later we tell them at parties, and suddenly we realize that those two very difficult years of our lives have become lumped together into a few episodes that have lodged in our memory in a standardized form, and are always told in a standardized way, in the same words. But in fact that lump of memories has nothing whatsoever to do with our experience of those two years in the army and what it has made of us.”
—Václav Havel (b. 1936)
