Alright, it is Wednesday and I am gonna post the fourteenth volume of Inuyasha. Feel free to react or comment on any panel, though I appreciate if image replies are not used during the dump. Feel free to discuss anything Inuyasha related after the dump.Previous thread: >>272873792Despite the OP image, I am using the VizBig 3-in-1 localization which does not feature this cover exactly. Be aware that some of the larger images have been edited to be lower quality due to image size limits.
Here's the inner illustration for Volume 13 in the 3-in-1. A young girl.
We last left off with Inuyasha sensing "the scar of the wind". July 14th, 1999. Author's note:"Q: Do you have any models of your characters?A: Nope."
>>273103361I guess "wind's scar" would've also worked, but it would sound the same as "wind scar" so that would be a problem.
>>273103385Sessh seen in a partial transformation.
>>273103411Got ourselves a double.
>>273103429I've stated how much I love Totosai's cow, right? Well, it definitely deserves praise here. I think it got a name in the anime, but I don't think it did in the manga. The Inuyasha TCG called it "Totosai's Flying Three-Eyed Cow" which is amusingly direct. Anyway, the name the anime gives it is 猛々 which means "fierce". In Romanji, it would be "Mou-Mou", I guess (two sources say that but I couldn't get any non-Inuyasha site to confirm). As in Moo-Moo.
Wonder what Inuyasha’s head would look like without that hair covering where a human’s ears should be.
>>273103618Big slices. You'd think slicing at a specific spot in between different airflows would result in one clean cut rather than splitting up like this.
>>273103693Oh yeah, venom in his face.>>273103622Probably not great.
>>273103824Family is a difficult thing.
>>273103848He is the winner.
>>273103865Smallest Kirara. Also, we see that hammer in action.
>>273103886Bit of the usual cliche.
>>273103912Miroku ascribes it to mysticism.
>>273103944Some people in this thread found it pretty funny that Inuyasha ends up looking more doglike than Sessh usually. Story notices it too.
>>273103964Kagome's eyes doing work again. But Totosai noticed it too.
>>273103986Not in the best shape.
>>273104006The girl from the earlier illustration.
>>273104023End of chapter! A compassionate child.
July 21st, 1999. Author's note:"Q: If you had a baby boy tomorrow, what would you name him?A: I would come up with a name with all my might."
>>273104039Sango appeared in less panels and spoke less lines than Shippou in this chapter. Just a curious observation.
>>273104117Not in this form, at least.>>273104124Cast got big, yeah.
>>273104226Back to business.
>>273104235Another dead village.
>>273104267Aw, the animals shivering in fear. Poor babies.
>>273104283Somewhat familiar scene.
>>273104331Water, fish and mushrooms.
>>273104370It is a brutal place.
>>273104398She made it.
>>273104370What does he eat?
>>273104425Oh, the villagers said her name. I can now mention any trivia behind it. This is all Furinkan has to say about it:"りん Rin's name is not written with kanji but with hiragana. This makes extracting a deeper meaning from it difficult.">>273104488Good question, honestly.
>>273104508Sigh...
>>273104488Yokai Juice
>>273104528So many.
>>273104553Hm?
>>273104576A yokai fight. Here's the trivia regarding Koga's name (mentioned on the last page)."鋼牙 Koga means "steel fang"."Pretty straightforward.
>>273104606We hardly knew ye.
>>273104656More slaughter in front of the child.
>>273104669You can find speed you didn't know you had when running for your life.
>>273104690End of chapter. Of course, it is still a pack of wolves.
>>273104656Well that is a way you can overlook it.
Original title is 少女の命 which is "The Young Girl's Life", more or less. Translating Shoujo to Maiden is a bit odd, but I guess it works.July 28th, 1999. Author's note:"Q: What issue would you talk about if you were invited to speak at a summit?A: The hole in the ozone layer."
>>273104763Quite a scene.
>>273104820
>>273104838Clouded eyes. An effective touch.
>>273104856Intact, for the most part.
>>273104880
>>273104899
>>273104917We saw a creature like this back in chapter 116. These are "gaki" (餓鬼), often translated as 'hungry ghost'.
>>273104958I'll repost the trivia regarding gaki that I posted before. This time without the spoiler tag, since it is obvious now. "Kikyo points out that the creature that appears on the dying man is a "gaki" (餓鬼), often translated as a "hungry ghost". In the lore of Inuyasha Rumiko Takahashi primarily uses them a creatures that claim souls and take them to the underworld In actual Buddhist conception these are creatures that the particularly sinful or wicked have been reincarnated as. Hunger gnaws at them constantly and they eat the earwax, dead skin cells and other foul things shed by the bodies of others. Though she uses their traditional appearance for the basis of these creatures (and for Jaken as well as she states in this interview between herself and Takashi Shiina) she never alludes to their stated "hungry ghost" characteristics."
>>273105037Welcome back.
>>273105050Sesshomaru's knowledge of the tenseiga grows.
>>273105088More wolves eating people.
>>273105098So many wolves.
>>273105138Not a fair fight.
>>273105158Well, we had a lot of people gore, so here's some wolf gore.
>>273105180
>>273105190Quite an entrance.
>>273105212End of chapter! That's a lot of shards.
August 4th, 1999. Author's note:"Q: Where would you build a cottage?A: Next to my house." Why? Why would you do that?
>>273105283Face off.
>>273105232So which kind of yokai wolf did he bang?
>>273105300Furinkan has a note here: "Koga's epitath for Inuyasha is "inukkoro" (犬っころ). This means "mutt"." Well, that's what Furinkan says. 犬っころ through DeepL and Google says "pup", "puppy", "whelp". It does seem to have the same connotation as mutt though.
>>273105371Big hops.>>273105309Well, given that Inuyasha said these were mortal wolves rather than yokai wolves, it is presumably metaphorical. But hey, who knows?
>>273105410Introductions were in order.
>>273105466Rumic long legs on full display here.
>>273104488Rin
>>273105479You think they itch in there? Or like heat up?
>>273105500A bit of a back and forth.
>>273105525
>>273105565
>>273105212Can't spell entrance without ntr
>>273105591Not need to hold back.
>>273105605Getting better at it. Didn't need to be blind for this one.
>>273105620Hm?
>>273105635No need to die here.
>>273105661A sharp mind? A sharp nose?
>>273105697Hanging out with your wolf friends on a cliff.
>>273105720End of chapter! Need to be careful about who knows about Kagome's sight.
Original title is 生け捕り. It basically means the same thing as seen here, but both DeepL and google specifically said it means "caught alive", which presumably is why VIZ's old translation called this chapter "hostage". August 18th, 1999. Author's note:"Q: What items do you need when you go swimming?A: A snorkel."
>>273105765Shippo cute.
>>273105778Miroku not running alongside this time. Also, whoops. Backfired.
>>273105810Could be ordinary wolves, I guess but probably not. I imagine his nose is good enough for that.
>>273105829Honestly, I don't hate Koga's design or his wolves, but I definitely like Royakan and his wolves more visually.
>>273105866Average pack size of wolves in 6-7, apparently. At least according to the Alaska Department of Fish and Game. Yellowstone says about 12. Anyway, they can get up to 30. This is obviously more. This isn't a critique, I just figured I'd say something about it.
>>273105924Thought bubbles. He's not that direct.
>>273105934Here he comes. No tornado this time.
>>273105965No! He needs that for sensing shards!
>>273105977Oh, Miroku hopped off to fight wolves.
>>273106030When it rains, it pours.
>>273106030I just started wondering how many times Inuyasha and Kagome scream each other’s names one right after the other.
>>273106084Furinkan has a note stating that "[this creature] is likely based upon the creature from Daijiro Morohoshi's 1978 manga "Adam's Rib" (アダムの肋骨/Adamu no abarahone). Takahashi is a longtime fan of Morohoshi's work and drew Moroshi's monster on the obi of a collection of his work."I'll post the cover of Adam's Rib after the dump and that illustration (though the image I have of it is really tiny, unfortunately).
>>273106179I enjoy the screentone on the panel of Kagome looking. I'm just imagining like a filter being applied over everything she sees.
>>273106207Uh, that last line is a little weird. Maybe he meant on both hands and legs? Maybe it is an existing expression? Whatever. Also, I feel like "rush them" doesn't mean "rush away from them". I'm blaming VIZ here.
>>273106253That's a big waterfall.
>>273106273Home sweet home.
>>273106287In case you were wondering.
>>273106323End of chapter! Furinkan has a note about the name of these creatures:"The Birds of Paradise (極楽鳥/gokurakucho) appear in this chapter. In the English adaptation of the manga they are sometimes called "Harpies" however "birds of paradise" is an accurate translation from the Japanese." It is a type of bird.
Originally this chapter had four pages of full color. Not so much in the volume.August 25th, 1999. Author's note:"Q: What name would you like to have if you were not Japanese?A: Rumiko Takahashi (written in English)."The parenthetical statement being Furinkan's addition, of course.
>>273106417I remember it like it was only yesterday.
>>273106427Kirara ate those bird.
>>273106497Be brave.
>>273106514
>>273106532Hog tartare.
>>273106565Not wrong.
>>273106579Wolves don't court.
>>273106606Whoops.
>>273104425Weirdly cute Rin on bottom page
>>273106632Not yet steady.
>>273106675What a charmer.
>>273106707He really is being brave.
>>273104899I know it's cliche, but I'm a huge sucker for sappy stuff like this
>>273106750He did a good job too. Also, I love Shippo's magic and the goofy faces.>>273106753Agreed. I love it too.
>>273103259Feels like it's been ages.
>>273106795
>>273106829A big assault.>>273106817Right? You wouldn't think a week would feel that long, but it really did. Which makes how long I've been doing this seem a bit crazier.
>>273106879
>>273105180Imagine getting killed and intimidated by fucking Hiraikotsu.
>>273106894They got a lot of teeth to knock out.
>>273105977So this is NTR...well Inuyasha still has Kikyo i guess.
>>273106917End of chapter! I wonder how they determined who was the big brother.
Mentioned it already, but yes, this title was 極楽鳥, (Gokurakucho), ie. Birds of Paradise.September 1st, 1999. Author's note:"Q: If you went to heaven one day, who would you like to meet?A: Sou Sou (155 - 220 AD)" I was not able to find out who that is by googling the English speaking internet.
>>273107015Yeah, flying creatures honestly are tactically difficult to fight unless you have something to answer their flight. Most of the time in manga, if a character can fly, the only reason he doesn't just stay 50 feet in the air and attack from there is some misguided sense of honor.
>>273107062Day in the life.
>>273107075Uh oh.
>>273107108
>>273107127
>>273107162You think the left one controls the left wing and eye and the right one controls the right wing and eye? That would make it so hard to fly.
>>273107187Hard part is taken care of.
>>273107203
>>273103848This is kind of forced. As far as we know, they have no filial bond. The fight over the sword is probably the first time they've ever interacted. I think Myouga is the only reason Inuyasha even knew about him.
>>273107228The two in the last panel have names, but until the names are mentioned in the manga, I don't feel the need to post their names' meaning.
>>273104039Uuoh-maru
>>273104488He used to live off smugness, now he subsists entirely on angst from daddy issues.
>>273107329Off he goes.>>273107283I understand how you feel and perhaps it is a bit at odds with what we've seen before, but Inuyasha did at least recognize Sesshomaru when he encountered him in the series. Admittedly the conversation went "Is that you Sesshomaru?" and "Ah, you remember me. I am flattered". I do think Rumiko has that traditional idea of the importance of family bonds, even if they've obviously been antagonistic to an extreme up until this point. But they are yokai and not human, so who knows?
>>273107517Furinkan has two notes:"[The wolf demon] refers to Kagome as "big sister" (姐さん/nee-san) which surprises her given how familiar the term is and they have only just met." "[The other wolf demon] uses the term "wakagashira" (若頭) to refer to their relationship to Koga. This is a term used for a the high-ranking underlings in a criminal organization such as the yakuza."Bit of nuance lost.
>>273105098>>273105088That little girl he saved will be Inuyasha's doom!
>>273107610I like the detail of the fight in the background with the chains.
>>273107631Bit easier to hit when the arrow turns into a giant mystic blast.
>>273107655Incoming.>>273107626Mwahahaha. Wheels are turning.
>>273107681
>>273107695Loud hug.
>>273107723End of chapter! Glowering time.
>>273105371>>273105466Royakan forgotten
September 8th, 1999. Author's note:"Q: How did you feel when you got your first letter from a reader?A: I was very happy."
>>273105525When? Between the name calling?
>>273107857
>>273104006Mad.
>>273107874Something about those speed lines made me think sun coming through the clouds, which is of course, not accurate.
>>273105778I can't help but think he's venting after Sesshoumaru always calling him a runt.
>>273107942Tail-sniffers? I don't know if this is a VIZ thing or what.
>>273107956Whoo, they're here.
>>273104838Nice top panel.
>>273108005Lot of bodies.
>>273108040Hands healed. May as well use it. I guess this counts towards the successful use of the wind tunnel. I might after this tally how often it is thwarted and how often it actually does the thing.
>>273108104I thought the mouth was crackling with power, but it might just be drool.
>>273104899Wtf the great Lord Sesshomaru slain by a smile???
>>273108155That's the sound jumping really high makes.
>>273108301Goodbye, Koga's weapon I didn't see him use before this fight. I think it is a sasumata. He also has a sword, by the way.
>>273108393
>>273108436Furinkan mentions this is the elder brother. I don't know how Furinkan can be sure, but maybe it was more obvious in the anime. I also don't know what it means to the elder brother in this scenario.
>>273108476My first thought was this was due to substantial loss in motion function, but it may just be tactics.
>>273108574
>>273108589Striking eyes.
>>273108628Sango and Miroku, come on.
>>273108640Don't get a big head.
>>273108656End of chapter! Fight for her.
September 15th, 1999. Author's note:"Q: What is your favorite rice dish?A: Rice porridge with green tea and salmon from Kajima, Niigata."
>>273108688This counts as protecting a mortal, right? I feel like we haven't had a transformation that just blatantly wasn't that yet.
>>273108701How direct.
>>273105212>>273105232He's here. Koga a shit and could never match up to Ryoga as a rival character. Sesshomaru is the only rival Inuyasha needs.
>>273108715Kagome is 15 and has never had a relationship with a boy before.
>>273108748Three anger marks.
>>273108791
>>273108804
>>273108827Other matters at hand.
>>273108846Apparently the anime changed this so both brothers were still alive when this attack happened. I guess they thought it was too gruesome to depict a pair of conjoined twins with one of them decapitated.
>>273108869Left a good bit behind.
>>273106084AAIIIIEE
>>273108888
>>273109005I guess he can fly just fine even without the other brother.
>>273105810Best seat in the house>>273105924With all the carrion from the ongoing wars to feast on and over all better climate, probably on the higher end.>>273106030They did the thing. Kagome kidnapped, Mirokus, most affected.>>273106514No Miroku they're clearly fish.>>273107631She got stockholm pretty fast.>>273108104A rare W for Miroku!>>273108436RipnTear>>273108574Look at the big fluffy poofball. Was is all just revenge for those poor frightened chickens earlier?
>>273109022
>>273108656Koga deserves some praise for being so honest among this cadre of shy teenagers.>>273108748>>273108791And all the tween girls were caught hook, line, and sinker.
>>273109037Time to walk the walk.>>273109032True, that would make for more wolves for sure.
>>273109091Kaze no Kizu.
>>273109117Bwaa.
>>273109134
>>273109148End of chapter! Not quite a hug, really. Also, I love the little tear in his friend's eye.
Original title is 逃がした理由 which seems to mean the exact same thing, but is a bit more ambiguous about who let who go.September 22nd, 1999. Author's note:"Q: If you were a henshin hero, what would you use for your special move?A: The ability to fly through the sky."
>>273109219A lot of people watching too.
>>273109235Dummy. No instincts telling him to run off now.
>>273109252Been a bit since we've seen this.
>>273109272It is nice to see some perspective.
>>273109283I mean, both Kagome and us know that Koga feeds his wolves humans. I do think it is safe to say that Kagome (and also us, as the audience) to not apply the same moral standards to demons (yokai) that we apply to humans.
>>273109315OP he called her cute. That outweighs at least a dozen innocent villages being razed. Plus less competition from girls like Rin. Kagome is truly cunning.
>>273109315ARE not to apply the same moral standards. Sort of mangled that sentence.Anyway, notice that Inuyasha only describes the kidnapping rather than the other moral quandaries. Some people say that Rumiko was hoping you'd forget about him murdering Rin's village, but honestly, Koga stopped being an outright villain pretty much from the get go. It has been less than a volume. She has a manga extra where she discusses Koga in particular, I'll be posting it in a few threads. I'll also save the brief twitter discussion about him until later too.
>>273108656Inuyashabros...
>>273109386Hah, the emphasis on busy there made me laugh.
>>273109413Pretty in sync here.
>>273109448Hm. No sound effect on that little wind line. I wonder why. Maybe to make it really silent.
>>273109481Hm.
>>273108656>>273108715>>273108748>>273109169proof that girls like assholes, even if they eat hoomans
>>273109503One of them is being honest.
>>273109523Felt the need to shut her up before asking too.
>>273109543Whoops. Wrong question to ask after all that. She really did try.
>>273109558Sigh...
>>273109573I was completely distracted, I didn't even notice the amazing "zoned" panel on the last page.
>>273109585Buyo in my sights.
>>273109604End of chapter, end of volume. Yup, we're ending on a fight. Ah, dummies. Feel free to use the thread to discuss anything Inuyasha related. I have some stuff I'll be using to bump the thread here and there.I will be returning Saturday (back to our usual schedule) to dump Volume 15. See you guys there. Thanks for reading.
>>273109604>>273109657She's channeling Akane.
>>273109543>status: deflowered
>>273104006>>273104023>Sesshomaru (Seething BTFO forma)
>>273109682Honestly, Inuyasha was channeling Akane more. Kagome wasn't really being tsundere.
>>273105810>>273109032
>>273109604I never got this part, they treat the "return well" as if it's always nearby, but if they're constantly traveling further and further away in search for the shards it shouldn't be possible for Kagome to just hop on Kirara and return just like that.
>>273109744kagome defended a man eating yokai. inuyasha was fully justified in just killing him
>Be Rumiko>Have an addiciton to slap retardy faces on animals>Make yokai animal>Give it one of your personal brand of retardy faces for goofy factor>Slap the goofiest face on the one riding the cow yokaiGod, I love Totosai lmaoLike anon said in Ranma; there's a bit of Yotsuya in Soun. There's clearly a fair bit of Gosunkugi in Totosai
>>273109773Well, Kirara is really fast and can fly. They also may be travelling in a spiral shape. And also, they kind of are back at square one due to the last thing with Kikyo and shards are moving around Japan.
>>273109804That's not why he wanted to kill him though.
Let me post the manga extra from the wideban before I forget. I believe this is the wideban extras for volumes 13-14. This is about Sesshomaru. As usual, I'll post it in two parts and spoiler what I consider to be "spoilers."The Real Demon Needed for the StoryI knew from a relatively early stage that Sesshomaru was a character I wanted in the story. Inuyasha is, of course, a half-demon, and I needed a full demon older brother to compare him against to show the reader what a real demon was at its essential level. I had the basic idea to create an older brother character early on, but I only started thinking about things like his personality, speech mannerisms, and design once I was already working on my manuscripts.The Large Changes in His DesignWhen I first started working on the storyboards, Sesshomaru looked completely different than how he looks now. His hairstyle and clothing were completely different. He looked kind of Arabian and not Japanese at all. And he was half-naked! Looking at that initial design, I knew it absolutely would not work. He wasn’t wearing nearly enough clothes and looked awful, the exact opposite of the cool older brother I needed him to be. So while I was inking the images, I started adding things to the design. Once I got the idea for a mid-length furisode kimono, I knew that was his look. So yes, I didn’t have a handle on his design until working on the manuscripts. I mean really, in the beginning, he was wearing less clothing than Koga!The model for the mark on his forehead came from Hatamoto Taikutsu Otoko. I thought it would be something I could use in the story later on, but unfortunately, the opportunity never arose. Oh, and by the way, the fluffy thing on his shoulder? It’s fur. Dog fur. I don’t think I ever had a chance to make that clear." I'll post the image of the character with the mark from Hatamoto Taikutsu Otoko in a bit.
>>273109604My boy did nothing wrong this time. Koga had it coming.
>>273104023>>273104039>*sumisawa intensifies*
>>273109908Here's the other half of that manga extra."Rules for the Ultimate DemonI wanted him to interact with a human character, and that’s where Rin came from. I wanted to create an opportunity to soften his heart. He probably just wanted to test out Tenseiga when he rescued her, but as their interactions continued, I think readers realized he actually wasn’t such a bad guy. He was the kind of character that didn’t just get stronger as things went on, but also bettered himself.While I was working with Sesshomaru, I set some rules for myself about his character. He could never break out in a cold sweat. He could never lose his cool. He could never stumble over his words. He could never act like he cared if he lost a battle. As a result, he turned out to be the coolest character I’ve ever created."Oh and here's the twitter bit about Tenseiga:"Tenseiga (April 29, 2022)Rumiko Takahashi: Sesshomaru is wearing a sword when he first appears, but at that point it had not been decided what kind of sword it was. I didn't know when to have him pull it out, even in the aftermath of the fight with Inuyasha, so I came up with the idea of Tenseiga later.I wanted it to be the opposite of Tessaiga and the opposite of Sesshomaru, a sword that saves people. It is the type of sword that follows you even if you throw it away."
>>273109856yeah, he wanted to kill him because of his mongol courtship traditions. and kagome protected him because it made her wet. still fully justified
Here's the wideban cover that I believe was for Volumes 13 and 14. As usual, it seems like a volume behind in terms of what it is depicting, but I don't know what else the 7th wideban could include.
she give you this lookwat do
I think I am going to abstain from arguing about Koga in these threads. I didn't even like him when I first read the series, but I feel a bit more open-minded on reread. I definitely agree about him not being as good a rival character as Ryoga.
>>273109908Before I forget. Here's that crescent shaped scar from Hatamoto Taikutsu Otoko.
>>273110062thanks for the story
Ok but what do we think of Totosai?
>>273110361100% likeable
>>273110361I love him.
>>273110361best old man rumi character
>>273103429Cute tiny Kagome
>>273104006>>273103618lol get owned idiot
>>273108723I gotta agree. In terms of rival-to-protagonist strength and enjoyability, Koga pales in comparison to Ryoga.
Would Inuyasha help the Ainu become a very powerful force?

>>273112108I was just thinking of this. Even before watching this their voices were still so clear to me after so many years.
>>273106417Here is the cover for the Shonen Sunday where this chapter premiered. Summer fun. Myoga too.
>>273106179Here's that cover of Adam's Rib with the bird creature on it from Furinkan. >>273109657Oh, also I am apparently going to be dumping a Rumic Theater one-shot called "with CAT" which apparently came out around this time. Despite the fact that it was in the most recent Rumic collection that came out in 2022. I guess it took forever to be collected because it wasn't part of Big Comic Special.
>>273110116Melt, just like the first time
>>273112743>>273106179And here is that illustration Rumiko did of the creatures in Adam's Rib. Sorry for the size. That's all I could find.
>>273104508
>>273107015Looks like Cao Cao from the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.Wikipedia has his birthday at 155, and his Koihime Musou analog is listed as Sousou.
>>273115200Thank you. I guess Furinkan got confused or it is just another name.
>>273103618>>273104006This is what? Now the second time Sesshomaru lost to Inuyasha? We'll count the previous time as a draw. Not a good track record.
>>273105778this is the first time i read any of inuyasha so i'll just spare you guys my stupid questions.i will say i find it ironic how inuyasha and the wolf guy both call each other demeaning dog insults
>>273103618Bless Japanese word puns
>>273111366The bigger sin is that Koga barely has any narrative importance. You can take him out of the story and not much changes.
>>273109134Here Koga realizes how outmatched he is by Inuyasha. Does he become stronger to close the gap and become a worthy rival? No. In fact, the gap only widens.
>>273109657Thank you for posting.
This is in Rumiko's house.
>>273110361Of the old coots we meet, he's the most interesting.
>>273104023>>273104039This is the beginning of the female fantasy
Winner?
>>273128312Would Kagome's spiritual powers even work on Akane?
>>273109117Will the viz translation switch to wind scar or will it stay scar of the wind?
>>273131024Furinkan says they switch, but I'm not sure when.
>>273124383Plushie patrician.
>>273124383>she actually has a virgin altarlmao
>>273104880>Jaken showing concern for dead human girl he never metJaken best boi
>>273135144She's got all kinds of stuff.
>>273109657Thank you OP
>>273128312Akane's slow for the Ranmaverse but she probably has the speed to dodge Kagome's arrows and Kagome's spiritual powers wouldn't work on a non-corrupted human. I think Akane wins.
>>273115584Historical names from Chinese characters to Japanese to English will end up different from Chinese to English.
>>273103259We're so back!
>>273129578Kikyo's worked on regular monks so probably.
>>273138330Pinyin makes my head hurt.
>>273109804>>273109994Koga is humanoid and attractive so it's easier to give him a pass. That's just how it is. It happens all the time with genders reversed too.
>>273103824>"You think the shonen battle manga bullshit scaling is over? Hah!"
>>273104124Inuyasha and Sango barely interact together after their proper introduction... just saying...
>>273104425>>273104669>>273104690Oh boy, I hope the characters find out that this young man is indirectly responsible for the death of this little girl...>>273104899Remind me... did the anime change this by making the sword react first and then Seshh comes back?
>>273105050This girl will have Sesshomaru's children - Rumiko probably...
>>273105212>>273105232I'll be honest, I never liked Koga... I used to skip his episodes...
>>273108656>>273109169 >>273109272>>273109315Rumiko...>>273109386>Rumiko was hoping you'd forget about him murdering Rin's village,I won't.>>273109682>>273109744>>273109804Inuyasha was in the right... for the wrong reasons...Nice thread.
>>273144251Same, he doesn't really add anything.
>>273145281I specifically said I don't think she intended for you to forget!
>>273103618>he tanked that>>273103964>the dangerous blade for the weak kid so he learns about real strenght>the healing blade for the violent kid so he learns about compassionlove this kind of shit
>>273143782non-heroine girls can't seriously interact with mc unless they are evil.
>>273104576>>273104606>>273104656>>273105212>>273105232Enter.... Ryoga but shit
>>273109315you are correct, sure you can make the character have a realization, and understand our concepts of morality, but if that character comes from a different society with different morals you can't really be surprised he acts the way he acts.
>>273105810>Miroku already got behind SangoChad he is, I tell you. CHAD>>273108628>>273108640>>273108656>not content with just one but needs another YJKSLUT
>>273106675Cute lying Kagome
>>273109585CALM THE FUCK DOWN, KYOKO!!
>>273104488Salty coins and milk
>>273104528There's a yumejo joke here somewhere
>>273104763Shoujo with the little girl kanji can double as "virgin" (read shojo) or maiden. That's probably why.
>>273107610Isn't nee-san also what yakuza use to refer to their boss's wife? That makes sense with wakagashira.
>>273105720Inuyasha be sniffin'
>>273137022I respect it.
>>273140895Good point.
>>273147204kek lum
>>273149201It is a bit weird that both of Kagome's suitors are dogs
>>273103618Sesshomaru's pride? In shambles.
>>273103848Inuyasha please don't feel familial affection for the guy who has expressed a singleminded desire to kill you.
>>273104006>>273104023How will Sesshomaru ever recover from this?
>>273104267There's been a lot of those.
>>273104370Rude
>>273104398Oh yes, child abuse. >>273104488He lives off of pure seethe.
>>273104576ENTER WORST BOY
>>273104856>GLAREAIIIIIIEEEEEEEE
>>273104899He's gone soft.
>>273105088His smug is back. More Wind Scar correction is needed.
>>273105371His ears are fully visible, Sango.
>>273105810>Sango calling Miroku "Lord Monk"He's in.
>>273106084AIIIEEEE
>>273106675She's going to catch fire if she gets any more embarrassed.
>>273106895Hey, put some fucking respect on Hiraikotsu's name.
>>273159300He looks a bit catlike, honestly.
>>273159542Yes, Sango referring to Miroku as houshi-sama is so cute.
>>273106179>>273106514Once again Rumiko delivers nipples on yokai women
>>273106323Kagome looks kind of off-model on the 2nd panel. But cute.
>>273162623Evil nipples.
>>273162623>>273166359Dare I say... niple status?
>>273148389Inuyasha being the weak kid is funny since he's still stronger than the vast majority of yokai. I think it was more to teach him how to have the strength to protect others since Tessaiga can only be used to protect humans.
>>273168957We find out later the sword is meant to protect him from himself
>>273160147And somehow everyone still correctly identifies his ears as dog ears
>>273170165I think he looks close enough to those japanese dogs
>>273170165and they also want to touch his dog ears
So... YashahimeWhat were they thinking?!
>>273124383Note, not one Kikyo or Shampoo.
>>273128312I'm putting in the code to unlock Ryuunosuke.
>>273172437>How do we make sure Inuyasha's story continues?
>>273173253There's a kitty shampoo above female Ranma on the second highest shelf.
>>273168957>I think it was more to teach him how to have the strength to protect others since Tessaiga can only be used to protect humans.Yeah, his strenght came from self-protection while Tessaiga was to teach him about gaining strenght from empathy
>>273170731NTA but that's fair.
Her soul's stuck in a tree now. And it's YOUR fault.
>>273177153I could have fixed her....
>>273177153Stupid bitch, what the hell was that, stealing the shikon shards and delivering them to naraku. As if we don't all know she's going to job
>>273177720She was going to give him the shards when he still wasn't full demon or as strong as he became.
>>273177720The pure power of smug of a woman having pity towards him. For all the smart, cheap and cruel shit he pulled off Naraku was still the one that got mogged the most when you think about it
>>273105924Werewolf? Nah, we've got Wolfwalls.
>>273108670Dogfight
>>273109514>even ifOn the contrary, the eating humans thing may be part of the reason girls are attracted to them>God, I wish that was me. Uh I mean oh no I'm so scared. What if he eats me? I totally don't want that to happen. But what if he does? He's definitely going to eat me. What do I do?
>>27310965739 OP
>>273177153Skill issue.
>>273115120cute
Dead butt
>>273177720She thinks she can take him when he has them all.
>>273188442RIP
>>273177720It's her destiny to job.
>>273190153Then why not just take him out now when he isn't at full power?
>>273188442That's the Kikyo clone from the fourth movie. We get to see her butt in the very first scene.
>>273194751Pride and spite.
>>273177720Literally >nah I’d win
