I actually just watched this set today for the 3rd or so time. If you were keeping up with the series on Cartoon Network, it's gone a few episodes above that. To follow along with the story, this set ends right after Sensui lands in Demon World. I won't say more than that for fear of spoilers.
It's a really good set -- menu is nice, subtitles are right on track, sound quality is good. Most people are concerned with the videa quality and there's not slack there. The only thing that really bothers me about MAC Yu Yu Hakusho releases is their thing for not showing the translated title for each episode -- they left in the katakana instead, so if you stop the box halfway it might be difficult to figure out exactly where you left off. The other annoyance I have is their lack of chapter usage. By that I mean if you hit Next on your DVD remote, it skips right to the next episode -- not the second half, outro, intro, etc. Each chapter is another episode so you have to fast forward through things like the intro.
Other than those two complaints, it's a good set. I just hope they hurry up and release Set 4 since the DVD official releases only have one volume left but thre are too many episodes for them to release it on a typical 3 disc set. Hope they get the last two boxes out quick!
