POP Yusuke Demon Form (Ghost Files Yu Yu Hakushô)

When all was lost against Sensui, when even the combined efforts of Kuwabara, Kurama and Hiei were not enough to cause him even a scratch, Yusuke, brought back to life by Puu, came to the rescue. But, despite his tenacity, despite his rage to win, he, like his companions, soon found himself powerless against his predecessor in the position of spirit world detective.

The events of the Sensui arc led to its conclusion on the other side of the spiritual barrier, in the wilds of Makai: the world of demons. It was there that Sensui unleashed himself, almost invincible, against opponents who were absolutely helpless against him. His plan was certain to succeed, and soon the Makai world would spill over into the human world.

But, being in the Makai produced something incredible in Yusuke, who, on the verge of death, transformed himself without even being aware of it. He then took a demonic form which did not fail to take Sensui by surprise.

In just a few blows, unleashing a power that one would not have suspected, Yusuke, without having any control over his body, managed to slaughter Sensui by his own strength. Or rather, thanks to the strength he was given. This energy that he did not know was in fact the spiritual trace of Raizen, his distant demonic ancestor who took control of his body to defeat Sensui.

It is from that day on that Yusuke discovered that he had demon blood in him, which changed his perception of the world. Ironically, after having defeated Sensui, the latter told him that he was condemned to die anyway from a fatal disease. Yusuke could not forgive himself for not having been able to defeat him by his own means. He nourished thereafter an ardent hatred towards Raizen who, later, became his master. After that, Yusuke never wore this form again, the fault being that Raizen died a few months later.

The Funko POP Yusuke Demonic Form figure represents him as he was during his fight against Sensui. Shirtless, his jeans torn by a breathless fight, the Yusuke Demonic Form POP figure, thus, shows a Yusuke metamorphosed in spite of himself because of the influence of the Makai and, more particularly, the demonic blood he shares with Raizen.

And precisely because he shares his ancestry with Raizen, the spirit detective, with the Funko POP Yusuke Demonic Form looks like a fusion between Yusuke and Raizen. Indeed, the Yusuke Demonic Form figurine represents the boy with his usual silhouette, but with the body tattoos and the long gray hair of his demonic forefather when he materialized through his body. It is worth noting that the Funko POP Yusuke Demonic Form represents him in a position ready to administer a Rei Gun. This same monstrous Rei Gun that finished Sensui during their titanic fight.
