The Japanese home video distributor Bandai Visual has announced that its first Yu Yu Hakusho Blu-ray Box will ship on October 27 with a new picture drama, featuring the four main members of the original anime voice cast. The picture drama will tell a newly written story that takes place after the final episode of the supernatural action anime. The cast members for the four main characters are recording new dialogue that will be accompanied by still pictures in the video extra.
The second Blu-ray Box will ship in Japan on December 22, followed by the third on February 23.
