The first full trailer for Netflix's next big live-action anime adaptation, Yu Yu Hakusho, has dropped, and it's looking pretty good! No matter where you look at the minute, big budget, live-action takes on classic anime and manga series seem to be everywhere (like that recently confirmed Naruto movie).

We did get a teaser last month, but this is the first trailer to properly dive into all the plot shenanigans. You can check out the trailer above, but for those unfamiliar with the series, here's a little run down for you. The series originally started as a manga from Yoshihiro Togashi, possibly better known as the creator of the equally acclaimed Hunter x Hunter, kicking things off right at the end of 1990. It follows teenage delinquent Yusuke Urameshi, having died after being hit by a car while trying to save a child's life. He's then tasked by the rule of the Underworld to take on the mantle of "Underworld Detective," having to take on demons and ghosts alike in the Human world.
