Yusuke Urameshi

**Introduction:** Yusuke Urameshi is the main character in the manga and anime series YuYu Hakusho. Over the course of the series, he is a Spirit Detective tasked with protecting the Human World from various supernatural threats, and his closest friends and greatest allies include Kuwabara, Kurama, Hiei, Keiko, Genkai, Koenma, and Botan. He is also Team Urameshi's de facto leader and the person to go to when things get tough.

**Character Details:** Yusuke grew up in a very neglectful environment, with a no-show father and a mother who was always off somewhere else (getting drunk or partying). He's impulsive, merciless, and enjoys intimidating those who are afraid of him. He has a joking and kind nature hidden beneath his bold, cocky demeanor. Yusuke has also had the unfortunate experience of having to deal with so many cruel and despicable people at such a young age, including Iwamoto.

One of his most notable characteristics is his desire to fight, which grows stronger as the series progresses. Yusuke has been described as unintelligent and, at times, downright stupid on numerous occasions. However, as his teacher Genkai later notes, he "can be a genius at fighting". Yusuke's desire to fight stems from his enjoyment of a good brawl, and, surprisingly, Yusuke dislikes killing if possible. Another distinguishing feature of Yusuke's personality is his sense of justice, as he does not tolerate evildoers and is always determined to apprehend or even beat them for the sake of doing the right thing.

Despite the fact that Yusuke is feared by the majority of students and despised by almost all of the teachers, he is widely misunderstood. One of his childhood friends (and later love interest), Keiko Yukimura, is one of the few who knows Yusuke is actually very kind, and she sympathizes with his life problems. Yusuke also develops strong feelings for his friends, particularly Keiko, Botan, Koenma, Kuwabara, Kurama, and Hiei. Younger Toguro, however, notes that Yusuke is "the most protective" of Kuwabara, most likely because Yusuke knew him longer than Hiei and Kurama, and also due to the frailty of Kuwabara's human heritage. Yusuke, as a result, can be mildly vengeful. Yusuke beat Dr. Ichigaki when the test subjects were released much harder than he would have otherwise. Similarly, after Bakken of Team Mashotsukai had finished beating Kurama, Yusuke wasted no time in beating him.
