Ep. 48: Kuwabara is ejected from the ring and reunites with friends while Shishiwakamaru prepares for a controversial match.
Aired on September 18, 1993
Kuwabara battles Shishiwakamaru using a spirit sword but is swiftly defeated and ejected through the cape of no return, landing in a separate stadium. There, he encounters Botan, Keiko, Shizuru, and Yukina. Meanwhile, Shishiwakamaru is scheduled to fight a masked opponent, though Genkai appears elderly rather than youthful, raising questions about the match's legality and potential disqualification. Once the bout is approved, Shishiwakamaru draws his banshee shriek sword. Elsewhere, Kuwabara, Botan, Keiko, Shizuru, and Yukina locate Yusuke and Pu in the forest as they travel toward the semifinals stadium.
