Jaran, a service for booking trips, will have a collaboration commercial with Yu Yu Hakusho from January 31, 2024. The commercial will feature the main four characters from the show, as well as Toguro (the younger one), relaxing in a hot tub. [Thanks, Game Watch!]
Yusuke’s voice actor, Nozomu Sasaki, will be in charge of narrating the commercial. It will apparently feature lines and familiar catchphrases from the episode previews. Aside from scenes of the character relaxing in a hot tub, it’ll show some cuts from the original anime.
Some preview scenes show Yusuke and Toguro fighting in the Dark Tournament. So, the look of the commercial will change between the show’s retro aesthetic and the more modern art style. Yu Yu Hakusho is an anime and manga series by Yoshihiro Togashi, who later created Hunter x Hunter. It was wildly popular in the 90’s, though recently Netflix produced a live-action adaptation of the show.
It follows delinquent Yusuke who becomes a Spirit World Detective after he dies saving a kid, an act which the Spirit World did not expect. The show focuses more on the action and fighting rather than Yusuke’s detective gigs.
The commercial for Jaran featuring the Yu Yu Hakusho characters will appear on its YouTube channel on January 31, 2024.
