Urameshi Yuusuke was originally
the hero of Yu*Yu*Hakusho, and may still be to many boys. His
popularity among girls was quickly eclipsed by the graceful bishounen
Kurama and the little gnome in the black dress--er, coat. But
he still appears in many a yaoi dj, and is more adaptable than
Janet Weiss in his choice of partners. You can see him here paired
with Kurama ('Declaration of Youth'), Youko Kurama ('Angel's
Bite'), Hiei ('Hatching'),
and Kuwabara ('Don't
Take Off My Sailor Fuku'). Even Koenma gets a turn ('You Brute').
Yuusuke has slicked-back black
hair and brown eyes that must be pretty intense since every villain
he's ever fought feels compelled to comment on them. A tough-talking
delinquent, his main accomplishments included shoplifting (he
was the champion shoplifter of Sarayashiki Jr. High), brawling
and smoking before the fateful day when he was killed saving
a child from a speeding car. This act was so unexpected that
Koenma (Deputy Lord of the Next World) decided to bring him back
to life and see what other funny things he'd do. And that's how
it all began.
The key to drawing Yuusuke cute
is simple, and can be seen in some of the thumbnails below. You
take his Brylcream away from him and let his hair flop down over
his forehead.
This is Togashi's version of Yuusuke with his hair
down. Yes, it really is. Suddenly we see where Azumi Touru and
Nakagawa Ao got their inspiration. |
