If memory serves, "Tetsujin 28-Go" was the first Japanese Animated TV Series to be brought to America. 1964 was the year it debuted, under the name "Gigantor". It was produced by the studio Tele-Cartoon Japan, so I'm guessing that they had the rights along with the original manga artist. Either the studio or the artist must have passed on the rights to an American dubbing company.

Anime is it right?

This is a question that's been in dispute for many years. While we cannot deny that some content in anime is wrong, we have to remember that anime comes from Japan, which has many different laws than in America (as America is a free country, whereas Japan is still a monarchy). In America's standards, some of the content in anime is wrong. But you also have to remember that it's just a cartoon, and not real.

Is YuYu Hakusho The Movie an adaptation of the anime?

Simple answer: Yes. The movie is a bit different from the anime because it was translated by a different company years before the anime was brought to America. The movie has a different voice cast than the series. It also does not include the style of humor the anime has. The plot is decent and the action is good, so you should watch it, but be warned it's not going to be the same as watching the series. Oh, one more thing: Kurabara is called Kurahara in the movie. No idea why.
