    I'm actually surprised I haven't even watched this series yet aside from the few episodes I'd see on cartoon network. Also because I like these kinds of setting.

    Guess I'll start.

    As long as Sesshoumaru and Rin get plenty of screentime, I'll be happy with it.

    Personally i think Sango and Kohaku is one of the more boring aspects of the show. At least when they get near each other. Sango can get some funny scenes with Miroku flirting. And i have no problem with Kohaku when he's out soloing. But as soon as those two meet or is aware of each others presence, it immediately gets painful to watch.

    Must say i also enjoy Sesshomaru, Rin and Jaken the most by far. This show should have been named Sesshomaru instead ^^

    Just because of all the Inuyasha talk I'm gonna have to rewatch some of it. My favorite part so far have been the arc where Naraku revived that mercenary group and hid himself in that mountain. Anyone remember where that arc begins and ends?

    around episode 78, and I think it ends with kikyo bashing at 124.

    I don't know if I'll stand to watch this season. the story got so DRAMATIC that it became painful to watch, and after going for a 'this changes everything!: arc again and again, it gets pointless. (so, Inuyasha killed the other spider youaki? and got what power up?. but then Naraku ate the twin youkai, and got the power of 'twins'?)

    also, Kagura.

    Dammit, why did it have to happen?

    edit: blanked, for possible manga spoilers.

    sig made by Itachi-y2k5, thanks, dude!
    Currently Watching: probably a show directed at 9 years old girls, lets be honest.

    You know the important distinction between Batman and me? Batman is fictional. In real life, there isn't always an alternative.

    From what I understand Inuyasha's manga ends pretty much like the anime ends, just further into the future. By that I mean there is no closure to the story after all the time spent having stuff happen. The stuff happening may be cool but knowing that it's just going to go on and on and then not even wrap things up makes me wary of wasting time on it again.

    Actually Inuyasha's manga did provide closure. Some say it didn't purely because they hadn't kept up with the manga completely. Through the course of the manga many side character roles finished long before the ending which led to a feeling of incompleteness for those who had missed these key points. Personally I was fine with it. The end did seem a little rushed but all in all good. Spoilers removed.

    I was wondering if I was the only one not excited about this news.

    I've read the manga in its entirety and Inuyasha is a perfect example of a manga that just went on for too long. By the end it seems like the mangaka just ran out of ideas so she decided to end the series which she honestly could have and should have done years earlier. There is an attempt at closure but that is all it is an attempt. It takes far too long to happen and then happens all too suddenly, not to mention that it lacks any sense of originality. Closure is supposed to be a satisfying conclusion to the story and Inuyasha's ending is anything but satisfying.

    Inuyasha is just one of those series that you absolutely have to be a fan of in order to be able to enjoy it, and if you're not a fan then it becomes intolerable. So as far as this new anime goes, if you liked the original and you like the characters then you'll enjoy it because it will just be more of the same. If you thought the anime was redundant and just kept going on and on without making any progress as far as the plot is concerned, then you should avoid this new series because it only gets worse.

    Wow... this is awesome news !

    I had mixed feelings about FMA being redone but I'm really enjoying it. Seeing how Inuyasha didn't really conclude... this is just great news.

    So... is it just going to pick up mid-story....?

    All I have to say is, they better kill Naraku or this series can die forever and never be remembered. I hate anime where they bad guy never dies. He should not have been alive for this long.

    They'll probably just make some ending up when they get there ;P

    WHAT I never thought I'd see the day that's for sure. I remember being pissed at the Inuyasha ending and being reassured by crazy Inuyasha fans who thought they were half wolf telling me that a continuation of the anime would surely come soon...

    Several years later they.. are proven right?!
