I do not own Yu Yu Hakusho or anything related.
Yusuke: My name is Yusuke Urameshi. A funny thing happened to me- okay, hold it, do we really have to do this?
Do what?
Yusuke: This whole Yu Yu Hakusho parody, I mean there's already a good Yu Yu Hakusho parody series out there, do we really need another one?
If people just avoided parodying something just because it was already done, we wouldn't have Khenpoe's Bleach!
Yusuke: Fair point. So are you saying you can do a better job than Lanipator?
Of course not! It's not about the quality. It's about the different ways you can make fun of something that were missed out on! Now stop complaining and get on with it!
Yusuke: (Sigh) Fine! Ahem, anyway, a funny thing happened to me-
On the way to the forum!
Yusuke: Grrrrr…
Sorry. I couldn't help it. Please continue.
Yusuke: Thank you. As I was saying, a funny thing happened to me- today when I was skipping school as usual. I saw a kid about to be hit by a car, so I dived in to save him, and got hit instead of him. It all started earlier that day when I decided to go to school just to sit on top of the roof and do nothing. I'm not what you would call the best conformist…
Keiko: Yusuke, stop being so lazy and get to class!
Yusuke: Yeesh. Why so grouchy?
Keiko: I'm a shonen heroine; I'm supposed to be an angry, violent bitch! Just like shonen heroes are supposed to be all cheerful and hyperactive! And I can't help but notice that you're all moody and irritable!
Yusuke: I don't like following stereotypes in anime. I'd prefer to be a more original shonen hero, you know, like Ichigo Kurosaki.
(Keiko slaps him hard)
Keiko: YOU IDIOT, BLEACH HASN'T BEEN MADE YET!
Yusuke: Right. Of course. What was I-thinking…
Student: Pl-pl-please! Take all of my money! I beg of you!
Yusuke: Do you think that I want you're stupid money?
Student: B-b-but in the original manga you-
Teacher: Urumeshi, how dare you frighten a fellow student by doing nothing! Now let me punish you by suspending you, giving you exactly what you want. Yes. I suck at punishing.
Principal: (Stops Yusuke eating a sweet) Ah, Yusuke Urameshi, I see you're still not wearing the proper school uniform. By the way where did you even find a shop that sells green uniforms?
Yusuke: Actually I dyed it this colour.
Principal: Oh. Right. And what is it with you and those sweets, anyway?
Yusuke: Ah, the stupid anime won't let me smoke, so I have to eat these instead. And I thought no one could be worse than 4 Kids!
Principal: (Drags him by the ear) Don't be ridiculous, Yusuke, no network is as bad as 4kids! Just be glad that they don't have you sucking a lollypop instead like Sanji.
Sanji: (Takes lolly pop out of mouth) Hey! Kodak constantly sucked a lolly pop and no one complained!
Principal: Yes, but that's Kodak. (Looks back and finds a cuddly toy in Yusuke's place) What the, a Substitution?
Yusuke: Hey! Just be glad that I didn't use a log! The Naruto Abridged fans would eat me alive if I did that!
Disembodied Voice: Wait; isn't it supposed to be a fake ear?
Disembodied Voice 2: Eh, Anonymius preferred the cuddly toy.
Yusuke: Man, I can't smoke, can't drink, can't gamble, can't extort money! Not to mention than the animation really, really sucks! Can this series get any stupider?!
Kuwabawa: Yusuke Urameshi.
Yusuke: Right on queue!
Disembodied Voice 2: Good Lord! He actually sounds like that? I thought Lanipator was just yankin our chains!
Disembodied Voice 1: Apparently not.
Disembodied Voice 2: Kazuma Kuwabawa. Second greatest rebel in this show. Wait. He's showing aggressive behaviour towards the hero. How is this Shonen Rival character a deviant?
Yusuke: Because he's only ever second best compared to me!
Disembodied Voice 2: Ah, that makes sense!
(Yusuke beats up Kuwabawa)
Disembodied Voice 2: Wow. Now that's a paradox you don't see everyday!
Disembodied Voice 1: What paradox?
Disembodied Voice 2: He's beating up that kid, but prancing like a ballerina at the same time! He's embodying both masculine and feminine qualities!
Yusuke: -WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY?
(Throws a punch in the direction of the Disembodied Voice 2)
Disembodied Voice 2: DUCK!
Disembodied Voice 1: OW, MY NOSE!
Yusuke: But seriously now who the Hell are you invisible people and why are you following me?
Disembodied Voice 2: But of course! We haven't introduced ourselves, have we? Well, I've gone by many names over the year, but you can call me-
Disembodied Voice 1: Are you going to use those exact words EVERY time you introduce yourself?
WHACK!
Disembodied Voice 2: (After whacking Disembodied Voice 1 with a mallet) Anyhoo, I'm called the Commentator, and this is the Professor.
Professor: Do how you do!
Yusuke: O-kay. So anyway, why are you following me?
Commentator: Well, as Commentator it's my job to make sassy comments when appropriate, so in order to do that in this series, I have to follow you, the main character.
Yusuke: Uhuh.
Child: Hey Mister! Can I have my ball back?
Yusuke: Listen kid! You shouldn't be playing on the street like that! You could get run over by a car or something!
(The child just stares at him)
Yusuke: (Huh. This kid isn't afraid of me. Now I know why Shrek took such a liking to Donkey!)
Child: Ha ha! Monster! Monster!
Yusuke: (Aw, man! I was trying to be an idiot!)
Commentator: I think the translator mixed up the word 'baka' with 'obake'!
Yusuke: Okay kid, you can have your ball back, just keep away from the road.
Commentator: Um. Are you sure you should give the ball back now? Given where you just put it?
Yusuke: EWW!
Commentator: Hey, you're the one who put it in your trousers, if anyone should go eww it should be me!
Yusuke: Oh no! That kid is about to get run over! Time to do something that no one would have ever thought I'd do!
Sammy: Oh no! The usually selfish kid is about to sacrifice himself at the wheels of a modern form of transportation in order to save a helpless stranger! (Covers eyes) It's Gantz all over again!
Yusuke: GAK!
Commentator: Yeah, but not as messy. By the way, if anyone is curious, this is the third commentator, Sammy the Slug.
Sammy: Please to meet you all!
Yusuke: -Which all leads me back here. Huh. So if I'm road kill down there, then who am I up here? Unless I'm a, errr…. Hmmmm….
Professor: Umm-? (Raises his hand)
Commentator: (Forces hand down) Let's give him a moment to figure it out.
(Hours later)
Yusuke: Errr, am-I a-errr, ummmm-
Commentator: Groan, YOU'RE A GHOST, DAMMIT! Come on, it's not that hard! I mean, if you're out of your body, then what the Hell are you if you're not a ghost? Who do you think you are? Dana Skully? Seto Kaiba? Katherine Janeway?
Professor: Katherine Janeway?
Commentator: Watch that episode where she gets possessed by that demon and she's out of her body, and you'll get what I mean. (Back to Yusuke) I mean seriously, how could you not think that you're a ghost?
Yusuke: I have legs.
(Commentator falls to Earth)
Commentator: (Rising up) What-does that have to do-with anything?
Yusuke: Japanese ghosts don't have legs.
(Commentator falls to Earth again)
Botan: Well it's about time you worked it out! Greetings. My name is Botan, and I am a shinigami.
Yusuke: Aren't Shinigami supposed to wear black kimonos and hungry ghost killing katanas? Or failing that, be horrendous monsters with a weakness for apples?
Botan: (Giggles) No, silly, you're thinking of different interpretations of shinigami from different series!
Yusuke: Well now that I've died, does this mean that I'll have to become part of this game where I and others who have recently passed on hunt down and murder innocent peace-loving aliens who have just emigrated to this planet like I'm some member of a militant wing of the BNP or the Ku Klux Klan?
Botan: Once again, different series Yusuke.
Yusuke: Aww, man! And I was looking so forward to that!
Botan: Ah. It seems you're exactly like how the profile describes you!
(Reads through book)
Yusuke: AH! A DEATH NOTE! I knew it! You ended my life, didn't you? Admit it!
Botan: For the last time, Yusuke, that's a completely different series! I mean if this was Death Note, you wouldn't even exist as a ghost, now would you?
Yusuke: I guess. By the way can you tell me if that kid I saved is all right?
Botan: Oh I can do better than tell you! Now come with me, Ebenezer Scrooge, as I the Ghost of Christmas Present shall show you what is happening with the child you just saved.
Child's Mother: How is he?
Doctor: Not that it's of any consolation to you, Child's Mother, but luckily he only has a few scratches, no thanks to you.
Child's Mother: Hey! Why are you being so hostile towards me?
Doctor: Where the Hell were you when this kid was playing on his own in the street when anything could have happened? Honestly, if you were keeping better supervision over this child, or organised supervision for him, then that kid in the morgue may not have so needlessly died!
Yusuke: Come to think of it, there are a lot of unsupervised kids in anime. I hope it's not an accurate reflection of Japanese society!
Botan: I don't think this sort of situation has been repeated in any other anime!
Yusuke: Oh no? Take a look over there!
Botan: Huh?
(A cuddly toy dog falls into a river)
River: PLOP.
Girl: Oh no! My toy has fallen in the river! EEEE! (Falls into the river herself) SOMEBODY HELP ME!
Yusuke: Seriously I wouldn't be surprised if there are a lot of dead or missing children if this sort of thing really happened in Japan! I mean what kind of parent just leaves their kid unsupervised in the street? Okay that's me done ranting; now take me to Hell or wherever I'm going!
Botan: (Giggles)
Yusuke: What? My death isn't that hilarious, is it?
Botan: Oh it's not that! You see Yusuke; no one was expecting you to die today. You had such a convincing reputation as a juvenile delinquent, that no one expected you to sacrifice your life for that child! Not even the gods! We originally had you put down for a horrible and horrendous death at the age of twenty by a wave of gunshots during a gang war. Now our schedule has completely been thrown asunder.
Yusuke: Oh come on I know I'm the ultimate delinquent, but did everyone really expect to just watch and let that kid die?
Botan: Do you really want the answer to that?
Yusuke: No not really. But I thought the gods were supposed to be all-knowing?
Botan: You're thinking of the Judeo-Islamic-Christian God. Japanese gods aren't so big on the whole omniscient thing. And no this is not a pro-Christian-anti-heathen message; it's fact that even the Supreme Goddess herself was said to rely on oracles.
Yusuke: But I thought Omniscience is partly what defines a god? Or are these actually advanced alien overlords posing as gods in order to enslave the human race and take their bodies as hosts?
Botan: Yusuke, I hate to be the one to tell you this, but there is as much mythological fact in Stargate: SG1 as there is fact in 'The Da Vinci Code,' 'Legend of the Tailed Beasts', and the theory that Isshin Kurosaki changed his last name when he married Ichigo's mother!
Yusuke: Actually I think they put up a very good point-
Botan: Shut up! Well anyway the point is that because of your unexpected death, we don't actually have a place for you.
Yusuke: WHAT? So what, you were all just expecting that kid to die?
Botan: (Reading book) Well, I didn't want to be the one to tell you this, but that kid was supposed to have miraculously survive without a scratch because the driver would have swerved away just in time.
Yusuke: WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT, IT WAS GOING STRAIGHT TOWARDS HIM, HE WASN'T GOING TO SWERVE AT ALL! Anyway, if that was true, then how was me taking his place made the driver decide 'Okay, I won't swerve away after all'?
Botan: -Yes the writing staff thought the ball acting as a buffer didn't sound as plausible. Can't remember why. Or was it the dubbing staff? It was either one of them! However, don't worry about being a wandering spirit, Spirit World's giving you the chance to get your life back. All you have to do is pass this trial, and if you do, you will be restored to life.
Yusuke: You mean Spirit World will reverse time and alter events so that I never died at all or was only dead for a while?
Botan: What? No, we'll just put your soul back in your body weeks after you've been pronounced dead.
Yusuke: But won't people be freaked out that this dead guy's back from the dead?
Botan: Well at first, but by the next scene they'll completely recover and get completely used to the fact that you're back from the dead.
Yusuke: -You're kidding, right?
Botan: Wait for about five episodes and you'll see what I mean.
Yusuke: Well thanks for the offer but I want to stay as a ghost.
Botan: WHAT? Who in their right mind would want to stay in a state when no one can see them or they can't touch anything for all eternity?
Commentator: You know Yusuke, you could always become an assistant commentator. We have room on the team for another one, and I think you have the potential to become a brilliant commentator!
Yusuke: And what exactly does a commentator do again?
Commentator: We float around in a series, make comments when appropriate and even interact with characters when necessary. We also introduce and conclude each chapter.
Yusuke: Uhuh. What else do you do?
Commentator: We sometimes stand as well!
Yusuke: And what do you get paid for doing it?
Commentator: Absolutely nothing!
Yusuke: So yeah, I think I'll stick to being a wandering spirit.
Commentator: Hey!
Botan: Well let me see if I can change your mind. Now come with me, Ebenezer Scrooge, as I the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come shall show you your wake!
Yusuke: Hey, wasn't it daylight just now?
Commentator: You took hours just working out if you were a ghost or not.
Yusuke: Hey-what the? People are actually celebrating my death? BAH HUMBUG! I knew that people would be glad that I'm gone, but actually seeing them MAKES YUSUKE MAD! Grrr. I'm rolling in my coffin!
Botan: No actually I'm pretty sure you're just still.
Yusuke: Shut up! It's a figure of speech! But how dare these guys celebrate my death! And at my actual wake! Don't they know that not showing the proper emotion at a funeral displeases the spirit of the recently departed?
Botan: Maybe they don't believe in the afterlife and that you're just lying in your coffin so they're not offending anyone?
Yusuke: Really? But I thought the Japanese were a-? Hey, I actually hear sobs! I'm actually feeling happier now! Wait, that's-
Keiko: YUSUKE! (Breaks down)
Yusuke: -Are those tears…for me?
Botan: No she's grieving for another childhood friend whom she was in love with.
Yusuke: I was only asking.
Kuwabawa: URAMESHI!
Yusuke: Huh? Kuwabawa? What's he doing at my wake?
Kuwabawa: How dare you- HOW DARE YOU selflessly sacrifice yourself to save a little kid! YOU COME BACK FROM THE DEAD RIGHT NOW! Or at least in about four episodes! You weren't supposed to die this way! You were supposed to live up to the ripe old age of twenty before dying in a wave of bullets during a gang war!
Yusuke: Why does everyone think that's how I'm supposed to die?
Kuwabawa: WHO AM I SUPPOSED TO FIGHT NOW! (Goons drag him away). No! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Yusuke: Wow. Now I know how Lex Luthor felt when Superman died.
Lex Luthor: SUPERMAN!
Batman: Huh? Lex Luthor? What's he doing at Superman's funeral?
Lex Luthor: How dare you- HOW DARE YOU GET KILLED BY AN UNSTOPPABLE MONSTER! YOU COME BACK FROM THE DEAD RIGHT NOW! Or at least in about three months! You were supposed to live forever! No one was supposed to be able to kill you! Not even me! WHO AM I SUPPOSED TO PIT MY SCHEMES FOR GLOBAL DOMINATION AGAINST NOW! (Brainiac and Metallo drag him away) No! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Yusuke: Wow! Even my mum is upset I'm gone!
Botan: Gasp! The woman who bore you and raised you for fourteen years is devastated that her only baby is dead! What a shocking twist!
Yusuke: Hey, shut up, anyone who saw that scene earlier with her and me would have been surprised that she cared for me!
Child: Mummy! Let's see Big Brother tomorrow!
Child's Mother: (In tears) No…there is no waking him up…
Yusuke: That's it; I'm coming back from the dead! Not just for my mum. Not just for the girl I'm just friends with. Not even just for my archrival, but for the boy I saved and his mother! Even though there's a good chance that I'll never see them again so they won't even know that I'm alive.
Botan: Well I'm glad you've changed your mind anyway. Now come with me, Ebenezer Scrooge, as I the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come shall take you to the Spirit World!
Yusuke: Will you stop it with the Christmas Carol references already?
WHACK!
Yusuke: Ow! Continue.
Narrator: And so, Yuusuke Urameshi has embarked upon a journey to get his body back! But what adventures await him in: the Spirit World?
(Starts to fade to black)
Commentator: Oooooooooh, the Spirit World. How spooooooooookyyyyyyyyyyyy!
Narrator: Shut up!
P.S. I do not own Sanji or any DC character or anything related. I'm sure you already knew that.
