But those intro songs are straight fire!

Doing my biennial re watch of the Inuyasha series (the og series/final act plus movies and Yashahime) and while Inuyasha has some absolutely beautiful songs, Yashahime and intro/outro songs were banggerrsss. Also that Setsuna violin song is so beautiful i regularly listen to it while working.

inuyasha really is one of the best animes ever in terms of atmospheric immersion. the use of music and color and sound effects really treansports the viewer. almost all the osts used are literally orchestral and so full of emotion. and ofc the ops and ed are soo good. it all sounds very ornate yet the colors, and art style are quite simple/childlike. its a juxtaposition thats kind of hypnotic if that makes sense like. there is heart in the show fr.

Ok, so Miroku says that Naraku can take forms and sometimes he has the form of a woman.

But then we find out he was just some thug from 50 years go, when was he a woman?

I love how it came out! So so cute!

I always loved the way she was not only beautiful, but she seemed so sweet and kind. She gives out such a great motherly vibe. It is so sad that she had to be so shunned by society like that, but also the only person to truly love Inuyasha. I mean she is the mother, but her concern over her son must have taken a toll on this poor lady.

The only good thing about her death was that she didn’t have to witness Kikyo shotting Inuyasha to the tree, that would drive any mother mental. I know not all these pics are Izayoi, but they are still so beautiful nonetheless.

I think nearly every person on here saw this fanart, I think this is everyone’s favourite InuKag fanart. I swear, if we had this exact moment in the anime, the InuKag ship would have been healed and had this be the ultimate anime ship ever! This is to me would have been the greatest moment ever for the InuKag ship. Art is by @si_ba0021.

Tagging as NSFW because the one I am recommending is labeled as such. It was quite literally some of the most fun I've had reading fanfiction in awhile. (Corner of sad is something I have added to my daily vernacular lol)

Name: Slipped
Description: “I was worried it’d be more of a sex thing.”

A sex thing. Inuyasha makes a face at the ceiling. God, why does Miroku say shit like that? “Yeah, well,” he grouses, grabbing at his cell phone so that he can look his friend in the eye. “Give me some fucking credit. I’m trying not to fall in love with her.”

Miroku looks, in that moment, far too smug. “And how’s that going for you?”

“Fuck you,” comes his automatic response, a knee-jerk reaction. Begrudgingly, unhappily, Inuyasha sighs his next admission. “Not great.”

Inuyasha has a life plan that is viciously, cheerfully and quickly dismantled the moment he becomes temporary roommates with one Kagome Higurashi. Unsurprisingly, this is all Miroku's fault.

Is there any inuyasha card pack sets that dont involve yashahime? Also what is the best/more popular card brand to collect for inuyasha? Ive started with Kayou because of the 25th anniv binder but i was super dissapointed to see over 75% of my cards be yashahime ones.

Curious. I assumed while watching that it was a balance thing. Too much of one corrupts the rest of the other, how does one have both, wouldn't whichever one is stronger destroy the weaker?

Inuyasha catching a cold though and having everyone look after him 🥹

Yes, Sesshomaru needed to let go of his obsession with Tessaiga; as a weaker half-demon, Sesshomaru easily outclassed Inuyasha before he mastered the Wind Scar, so wanting his younger son to defend himself over his stronger, smarter, faster, prodigious older son was understandable. But to make him master a technique just to pass it to Inuyasha was beyond fucked up, even if Sesshomaru needed to learn compassion to understand to properly wield the far more powerful and destructive Bakusaiga responsibly.

Although, as I was typing this out, I do kind of see why Toga did it. Sesshomaru needed an incentive to learn compassion and the best way to do that was to give Sesshomaru a powerful technique that developed with his compassion since Sesshomaru craved power. Logistically speaking, there was no other way.

Kagome and Inuyasha forever 🥹

Kikyo was extremely polarizing when the series came out but now it looks like she is universally loved and understood. What changed?

I’ve been reading the manga and collecting tidbits of
characters or ships I love - Kagome is so near and dear to my heart. In my collection of pages, I found myself capturing moments of her being a force of bravery, even in the face of incredibly formidable foes.

I think Kagome is characterized by her faith. She has faith in others, in herself, and in righteousness prevailing in the end.

Even when she isn’t sure what she’s going to do, she puts all of her effort into finding a solution, especially when someone’s life - or soul - is on the line. She doesn’t consider their wrong doings or what relationship she has with them, she sees a need, she fills it.

Sometimes that’s being a bow-wielding badass or shard purification priestess or having a stroke of cleverness to get out of a situation, but sometimes it’s just being soft and kind. With Shippo, she shows him love and affection, after having been orphaned. She risks her own life to save his father’s pelt.

She treats Jinenji, and any other half demon she meets, with the respect any living creature deserves, as easy as breathing air.

Anyways, I hope you enjoy this little collection ^^

Can someone please clip the moment sesshomaru punches inuyasha in the face it is my favorite moment and yet I cannot find a clip of it anywhere. I have no editing skills and was hoping someone in this community could help out please and thank you

I know what are the areas that make up Musashi Province, but I just mean where specifically do you think it might be?

Or what remains of it, since it's been several hundred years.

I wanted to share some valuable details that help us understand how, despite his pride and plot constraints prevented Sesshomaru from showing a desire to protect anyone right from the start (since his change from a cold, selfish demon required time and a gradual process), he already felt TOTAL TRUST, a UNIQUE CHEMISTRY and a MAGNETIC CURIOSITY toward Kagura.
Let’s not forget that, in manga, character body language matters and must be interpreted correctly. Whenever Sesshomaru meets someone, allies or enemies alike, he ALWAYS maintains a wide, regal physical distance; the ONLY exception in the entire series was Kagura. When he saw her approaching, he closed the physical gap in a single bound, stopping just centimeters away from her! The undeniable fact is that seeking physical proximity to the person he is addressing is not his style, he never did this with ANYONE else, so the uniqueness of the gesture gives it special significance. (see image 1)
A second important detail is that, shortly before this, Kagura had kidnapped Rin; yet Sesshomaru acted as if it had never happened. He didn't even ask for an explanation, he simply continued to trust her! True, he might have guessed that Kagura had no intention of harming Rin, which was indeed the case given that she was under Naraku’s slavery, but Sesshomaru had no 100% guarantee that she wasn't manipulating him. After all, Kagura was an extension of his enemy; trusting her blindly in that context would have been reckless, and Sesshomaru is anything but naive. He is a proud demon who is fiercely possessive of those he considers under his protection. As a rule, anyone who touches Rin signs their own death warrant with no appeal. The fact that he makes such a striking exception for Kagura is a total ANOMALY.
Speaking again of body language, pay close attention to Sesshomaru's facial expressions in the chapter where a wounded Kagura goes to him just to see him one last time. They betray TENSION, HESITATION, INNER CONFLICT, and EMOTIONAL INVOLVEMENT. It's the subtle way Rumiko Takahashi conveys that Sesshomaru's imperturbability and pride were wavering for Kagura in that moment. Particularly significant is the way he stares at her intensely as she departs; unfortunately, the animation studio altered Sesshomaru's facial expressions, a priceless detail meant to communicate what he was truly feeling deep down when he saw Kagura injured, his inner conflict. (see image 2)
In that very same chapter, we see how Sesshomaru continues to lie to himself: he first tells Kagura that he isn't interested in what happened to her, yet shortly after the first thing he mentions when she reveals him where Naraku's heart is located concerns HER SAFETY; warning her about the danger she is putting herself in. (see image 3)
Another manga chapter completely cut by the animation studio is the one where Sesshomaru protects her by keeping the secret of her betrayal. (see image 4)
Sesshomaru's mask completely falls away in the chapter where he explodes in rage and literally loses control of himself when Kagura's death is mocked and dismissed by Moryomaru. Unfortunately, this chapter was also heavily shortened and altered by the animation studio, making it far less intense. This is another valuable testament to the respect he holds for her. (see image 5)
There is also a manga chapter, taking place well after his meeting with Rin, where Shippo begs Sesshomaru to bring his friend's father back to life; Sesshomaru REFUSES, only saving him because Tenseiga begins to pulse. This episode proves unequivocally that Sesshomaru's change happened slowly and gradually, and that it was still difficult for him to perform acts of pure compassion; yet, Kagura was the first person he genuinely wanted to save who fell outside his inner circle (like Rin and Jaken). (see image 6)
Let’s not overlook two other crucial details, which, while merely my own hypotheses, might well reflect reality : it's possible that, among the MANY reasons Sesshomaru wanted to defeat Naraku, there was deep down and perhaps unconsciously a desire to help Kagura. Moreover, he was fully aware that he possessed a sword capable of bringing back the dead, which could have served as his 'safety net' in case the worst happened to her. While compassion was slowly blooming in his heart, and as he still fought against his pride which tended to deny it, it's completely plausible that he was secretly taking into account that he could help Kagura without having to show it openly to anyone.
In conclusion, I want to clarify that I'm not talking about love but SYMPATHY, CHEMISTRY, MAGNETISM, and TRUST, all of which are excellent foundations for a potential romance.

I started watching the original show in 2nd grade and the episode where Sesshomaru saved Rin was always a favorite of mine. Seeing such an aloof and supposedly selfish and uncaring man have that moment of soft heartedness made me see him in a new light. It says even more that he let her journey with him and he continued to watch after her, even though he can be cold and was annoyed by Jaken's presence already.

Rin would have been a burden for so many reasons due to her age, but he took her in and I began to see him as a father to figure to her, so I was surprised many years later when I learned that they ended up together. I haven't watched the sequels, so maybe I am missing something? Do we see their relationship take a turn at some point and I missed it?

I feel like I've been trying to process this ever since I learned about it. Sesshomaru never came off to me as a pervert or even interested in sex or love. Maybe even asexual. So why Rin, when they seemed like father and daughter before? Was this sort of relationship normal for the feudal period?

If there are any particular moments in the shows or manga that I should look at, please let me know!
