Netflix’s live-action take on the Yu Yu Hakusho anime is out and fans are wondering if the series has more than 5 episodes. Is there an episode 6 coming out in the future? Has Netflix only released Part 1 of the season, so is there a Part 2 on its way? Here’s all you need to know about Yu Yu Hakusho’s release schedule and episode count.
Is there a Yu Yu Hakusho episode 6 release date for Netflix?
No, there is no Yu Yu Hakusho episode 6 release date as Netflix has ended the season with just 5 episodes.
The live-action Yu Yu Hakusho series arrived on December 14, 2023, and many fans were surprised to see just 5 episodes in the show. Many have been left wondering if there’s an episode 6 on its way. But unfortunately, that isn’t the case as the series is extremely fast-paced and wraps up a good chunk of the anime’s story.
The original anime had 112 episodes and Yu Yu Hakusho’s 5 episodes cover the narrative of about 60 episodes. More episodes could arrive if Season 2 happens. But at the time of publishing, Netflix has neither renewed the show for another season nor canceled it.
Will there be a Yu Yu Hakusho part 2 release date?
No, there is no Yu Yu Hakusho season 1 part 2 release date as the season was only 5 episodes long.
Netflix is known for releasing its shows in two parts to keep them relevant for a longer period. But, despite having such a low episode count, live-action Yu Yu Hakusho Season 1 does not have a second batch of episodes. But whether a second season of the show happens remains to be seen.
The official synopsis of Yu Yu Hakusho on Netflix reads:
“After a selfless act costs him his life, teen delinquent Yusuke Urameshi is chosen as a Spirit Detective to investigate cases involving rogue yokai.”
