Japan's BANDAI SPIRITS company's prize figure brand BANPRESTO, following the release of "Yusuke Urameshi," is set to release the latest product from Yoshihiro Togashi's popular work "Yu Yu Hakusho," the "DXF-Kazuma Kuwabara-30th Anniversary," scheduled for release in April 2023.
The classic Japanese manga series "Yu Yu Hakusho" was serialized in "Weekly Shonen Jump" from 1990 to 1994. The story's protagonist, Yusuke Urameshi, dies in a car accident at the very beginning, unexpectedly becoming a "Spirit Detective." During his missions, he befriends the demon fox Kurama and Hiei, who came to the human world from the Demon World, and together with his human best friend from Sarayashiki Junior High, Kazuma Kuwabara, they solve problems involving demons from the Demon World and the human world, becoming comrades-in-arms. Although it is a 30-year-old work, the announcement in 2022 that Netflix would adapt it into a live-action Japanese drama still generated widespread discussion and attention.

The BANPRESTO Prize Figure "DXF-Kazuma Kuwabara-30th Anniversary" stands approximately 18 cm tall. Continuing the DXF series' high-quality production standards, and inspired by the anime's 30th-anniversary commemorative illustration, it faithfully recreates Kuwabara's signature orange pompadour, his bare-chested, imposing appearance as he wields his Spirit Sword. His loose uniform pants and the cloth wrapped around his waist exude a delinquent (bosozoku) style!
