12. Yusuke's “Damn, you're stupid. You didn't throw it away. You just ran away from it. Like a frightened little child.” changed to “Man, you're stupid. You didn't throw it away. You just ran away from it. Like a frightened little child.”

Strange edit here, in edits 6 & 7, why show Kuwabara on the ground and then a few seconds later show him collapse on to the ground. I guess it was cheaper, or easier (or both) to change out the scene than to edit out the blood.

Wow, in the first 13 edits, I could have just cut and pasted the entries (I didn't though). I just love recap episodes (NOTE: Sarcasm). The next episode should be rather light (edit-wise) considering all it's doing is tying up the Dark Tournament.
