The Yu Yu Hakusho clothing line from Baby Doll will feature several items based on the anime and manga series. First is a set of sleeved blankets based on the clothing of Yu Yu Hakusho characters Yuusuke Urameshi, Kurama, and Hiei. Included with the Hiei sleeved blanket is an ear warmer with his third eye printed on it.
The second items featured in the line are two different types of socks. The first, a six-set of socks, will feature embroidered Yu Yu Hakusho characters, and the second, a five-set of socks, will feature the characters’ names. The embroidered socks will include Yuusuke Urameshi, Kazuma Kuwabara, teen Koenma, Kurama, Hiei, and Kurama in his fox form in corresponding colors: green, yellow, purple, red, black, and white. The name socks will include Yuusuke Urameshi, Kazuma Kuwabara, Kurama, Hiei, and Koenma printed in green, yellow, red, black, and purple on white socks.
The last item, and by far the cutest in the Yu Yu Hakusho Baby Doll line, is the hooded baby romper based on Koenma’s clothes. Along with the romper, a set of five bibs with iconic quotes from Koenma will be available. Unfortunately, the bib set will be sold separately from the romper.
The Yu Yu Hakusho Baby Doll clothing line went on sale on December 4 and will be available until December 2025. It should be noted these are baby and kids clothing. The slated price for the sleeved blanket is 6,490 yen (about US$44.09), the embroidered socks 1,419 yen (about US$9.64), the name socks 1,089 yen (US$7.40), the baby romper for 6,490 yen (about US$44.09), and the bib set for 1,980 yen (about US$13.45). The Baby Doll website does not have any information regarding purchases from outside of Japan.
These look to be fun clothes to get for your children if you’re a fan of Yu Yu Hakusho. So if you’re in Japan between December 2023 and December 2025 you may want to stop at a Baby Doll store to pick one of the items up.
