This apparently got boring, and the hooks for it as an extended process were cut short; Yusuke abruptly came back to life and the manga became a fighting series instead, turning some of the beginning into BrokenAesop stuff. Then it was going to be a series of short 'case' storylines, with hooks for ''that'' in the form of the spirit tools, which Yusuke was supposed to get more of as he could handle them.
