Dubbing History
The movie was originally dubbed by Animaze for Media Blasters, under their Anime Works division, in 1998. This dub predates FUNimation's dub of the TV series by 3 years, and as such has a completely different cast. It was released on VHS on June 9, 1998, and later released on a single DVD with Ninku: The Movie on January 30, 2001
In 2011, FUNimation Entertainment released the film to DVD, along with the Eizou Hakusho OVAs, on December 13, 2011, featuring a new dub with their cast from the TV series.

Dubbing History
The dub was dubbed into English by Central Park Media and Skypilot Entertainment in 1998, around the same time Media Blasters dubbed The Golden Seal. The dub was released on VHS on March 3, 1998 and DVD on October 8, 2002, with a DVD reprint later issued on January 31, 2006.
As of 2017, this is the only Yu Yu Hakusho property not acquired and redubbed by FUNimation with their cast. The rights to the movie are unclear after CPM went bankrupt in 2009, though it seems the rights holders are unwilling to license the movie to FUNimation.
