Yu Yu Hakusho Live-Action Adaptation to Premiere on Netflix in December 2023

More than three decades after the beloved manga “Yu Yu Hakusho” first debuted, it will get a live-action adaptation on Netflix on December 14, 2023.

The Popular Anime was released as “Ghost Fighter” in the Philippines and was dubbed in Tagalog to appeal to the wider audience.

An international dream team was assembled to bring the epic tale to the screen, tapping into the most advanced CG and VFX technologies from around the world. Scanline VFX, known as “the most innovative VFX studio in the world” and lauded for their work on major Hollywood productions, was instrumental in giving life to all the characters, both human and yokai (spirits), while delivering realistic battle action sequences.

Taking five years to complete the production of live action adaptation, the team painstakingly ensured that the subtleties of every character’s emotions were accurately depicted in the adaptation. The fusion of state-of-the-art technology and a passion for staying true to the source material promises to make this adaptation a standout in the world of live-action anime.
