Not really, fortunately. I usually take it off right when I finish the dump, but I try to use it when I post so if people do want to filter it, they can and I don't have to worry about someone pretending to be me and posting gore or something.

This is a note from Furinkan that pertains to the Wind Tunnel overall: "Hakushin is the only person who has been shown to be able to somehwat resist Miroku's Wind Tunnel." I'm not sure if that's quite true? I feel we had one more, but it was due to some external factor of some sort.

I like this little moment with Jakotsu. At peace with it. Also, Furinkan mentions that:

"The word "katami" (形見) is used once again. It means "souvenir" though the deeper connotation is a "keepsake of someone who has died". Consequently Jakotsu is not simply saying he will keep Inuyasha's ears for himself but making it clear that Inuyasha will die in the process."

I remember being surprised by this when I first read it, but now that I reread it, he really did last a lot longer than the two that came before him in the series. Based on that interview with the editor and Takahashi's comment regarding it, it seems like it was in part due to his influence. I guess I was surprised because we had him survive, only for a teeny bit though.

Her comment was: "Takahashi: I had drawn the last days of Jakotsu a little too easily, but you told me to "stick with him just a little longer" and I was able to extend his life a few more pages. I was glad." It wonder if he was going to die within his first couple of chapters like Kyokotsu and Mukotsu.

She also mentioned in a 2022 interview that: "It was Jakotsu that had many readers asking for him to stick around longer, but I had to kill him... I too was very sad when I drew the end of Jakotsu."

People are often too quick to conflate “filler” with a bodyguard arc. Whether they’re appear in succession or not, it’s a group of elite warriors that antagonize the heroes for whatever reason the villain needs: to buy time, to prove the heroes, to whittle their ranks before a fight, and so on. Compare the Sanctuary fight against the golden saints in Saint Seiya, or the Patch fight at the end of Shaman King.

Rumiko Takahashi had the following to say about Bankotsu on Twitter on September 28th, 2021:

"Since he was going to be the linchpin of the Band of Seven my concept was "he has to be the coolest". Afterwards I thought he gave off a very scary presence. Rather than give a proper greeting he's the type just to cut your head off.
No one had worn a braid in Inuyasha since Hiten. I wanted the sight of it flicking and flitting to become a familiar sight during action scenes. Bankotsu is really a barbaric barbarian.

Mr. Kusao's voice was really the best."

Furinkan's translation note: "Bankotsu (蛮骨) is written with the kanji for "barbarian" (蛮) so Takahashi is punning his name when she says he is a barbaric barbarian."

I'm actually surprised that Bankotsu didn't end up being as much of a stoic as Sessh given her plan. I am pleasantly surprised though.

Also, from a Q&A in 2021 Takahashi said the following:

"[Q:] InterviewI think that the strongest in the Band of Seven is Bankotsu, but in what order are the other six ranked for their strength? Also, I would like to know each of their ages if possible!
[Takahashi:] Bankotsu (17) is the strongest, Kyokotsu (30) and then Mukotsu (33) are weak because they died early. Renkotsu (24) is the second strongest because he is a little smarter than everyone else. Ginkotsu (22) is almost a weapon, so he is the third. Between Jakotsu (20) and the Suikotsu (26) Jakotsu would win due to the difference in the reach of their weapons. How's that for the order? The age of each person has been decided appropriately now, so if the same question is asked again in a few years, it may change. In that case, please forgive me."

Yeah, but I was wondering if at a certain point the barrier would be strong enough to purify him, or if Sesshomaru would be able to get near Hakushin as close as Miroku and Sango were without dying. Probably not, seeing as him being right on the mountain slopes only managed to slow him down a bit.

Furinkan notes that: "When Hakushin dissolves, Kikyo comments, "成仏された" (jobutsusareta). The typical context would be "he resting in peace" or "he's gone to heaven". Because of the context of Hakushin as a living Buddha another translation could be "he has become a Buddha" or "he has entered Nirvana"."

I like this moment.

It's not fair bros. I just want Kikyo to hug me and tell me I wasn't so bad as I die.

I feel like Japanese are sorta inconsistent about whether corrupt priests retain their holy powers. Depends on what a given story is trying to say. In this case, he had legitimately earned his power up to the point of his mummification, but then he had a moment of weakness and Naraku intervened, which put him in this limbo state. Perhaps he could've made peace with himself if not for Naraku and the heavens somehow recognize that? Hard to say, since this isn't a very rigid setting.

>Suikotsu: defeated by Kikyo, coup d’grace by Jakotsu
>Jakotsu: defeated by Inuyasha, coup d’grace by Renkotsu
>Renkotsu: you just killed him yourself

>>274756867
They're setting this up as a big climax, but I feel like the Band of Seven needed more hyping up. We should have seen the damage the they could create way before Koga ran into Kyokotsu. Koga should have barely survived only to find out, he was the weakest of them, like the trope goes. It's already pretty uncanny how strong Bankotsu is, but I still felt like he was never a real challenge to Inuyasha without the purifying aura getting in the way. I could believe he's a threat not due to pure brawn but experience on battlefields if Rumiko leaned more into that.

Does Kikyo “die” in this volume?

Yeah, didn't exactly stop her last time.

Naraku clearly loves living in dark pits. So why don't they just go dig a really nice dark pit, like the best dark pit you've ever seen, then wait for Naraku to settle in before plugging up the pit with a really big holy rock.
Problem solved.

Furinkan notes that: "It is interesting to note that as Ginta and Hakkaku chase behind Koga they simply address him as "Koga" with no honorific such as "-san", "-sama" or "-kun". In other words they do not treat him in a formalized hierarchical way or the nature of their relationship is quite informal."

I wonder if they're consistent about that? He is their leader, but he definitely is their friend. They also did call him an idiot not that long ago.

End of the line. Here's is the full bit from Rumiko's 2022 Q&A regarding Bankotsu:

"Q15: Bankotsu is popular despite his short appearance, but was there ever a case, not only with Bankotsu but others, where you might consider extending his life or increasing his appearances in response to readers' reception?

[Takahashi:] The Band of Seven were dead in the beginning of their story, and as long as they were revived via the Shikon Jewel, they had no choice but to die again. So I didn't extend their lives, but I thought I'd give them good endings.

And when the Band of Seven debuted and two of them were killed off pretty quickly, as a result the remaining five people had to divide the roles, and as a result, their number of appearances increased. After that, I drew while thinking about who they could play off of among Inuyasha's allies.

It was Jakotsu that had many readers asking for him to stick around longer, but I had to kill him... I too was very sad when I drew the end of Jakotsu.

Q16: Speaking of "leaders of the enemy's army," you have many fascinating characters in many works, but can you tell us about any characters or works that have influenced you?

[Takahashi:] I like the excitement of a manga that deals with the coming together of a group of friends until they are all together. Conversely, in creating the leader figure, I tried not to disappoint the readers' expectations."

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. Though probably tomorrow. I messed up and this thread ran super late. I'm sorry everyone. The holidays have been killer.

I will be returning Saturday to dump Volume 29.

Bankotsu is younger than I expected.

>>274756147
>>274756165
He deserved better.

>>274756961
Shippo's awake!

>>274756967
Smug little Bankotsu in that bottom panel.

>>274757314
You know he was just waiting to pull this on someone.

>>274757678
>Naraku is the demon equivalent of a hermit crab but for dark pits.

>>274761426
Better than finding peace in your final moments in the arms of Kikyo? That's just greedy.

>>274758226
It's so chuuni yet so good.

>>274759023
Evil babies.

>>274759524
OUT FUCKING SKILLED

Take a shot every time someone says "Feh!"

Inuyasha is fighting a Terraria boss?

>>274761374
Thanks OP.

That's it for the Band of Seven. What did you think of them? Who's your favorite?

What did Kagome do to make sure not to get pregnant is the first 4 years of marriage with Inuyasha?

>>274762689
Mu and Gin were too strong.
Although gin was hardly a character.
I feel like if the band had actually worked together, they might have won.
I'm curious what Rens stolen shards actually did for him.

>>274761184
And not for the last time.

>>274761184
HOLY TITS

>>274761038
Takahashi remembers Jagi better than Buronson, incredible

>>274761374
Thanks anon

>>274762689
Band of Seven Arc sucked, it dragged on for far too long and accomplished nothing except killing Kikyo off so we can have the gang wangst about her inevitable return (again).

Jakotsu best boy though, I liked it just for him.

Furinkan notes that: "This issue of Shonen Sunday contains a poster for the soon to be released Inuyasha Movie 2: The Castle Beyond the Looking Glass."

Very pretty poster.

Here is the associated wideban extra. This one is the second one about the Band of Seven. There are two wideban extras about this topic, here's the previous one: >>274484880. As usual, I will have to use two posts to fit it and will be spoilering things that relate to stuff that hasn't been shown yet.

"Pitting One Team Against the Other

There was something unique about the Band of Seven storyline for me, and that was the team vs team aspect of it. With Suikotsu, his multiple personalities were vital to his character. When he’s the “good” Suikotsu, he’s such a good person he could even fool me, the creator. Which was intentional. But in the end, of course, he’s a member of the Band of Seven, meaning he’s going to have to face off against Inuyasha and company, and I thought Kikyo was the perfect opponent for him. He dies after Kikyo shoots an arrow directly into his Shikon shard, purifying it and allowing the “good” Suikotsu to return. Only Kikyo could have done that for him.

Kyokotsu is the first member of the band that we meet, and he is offed immediately, but that was the role I needed him to fulfill. In other words, he was the standard “weakest of the bunch” villain (laughs). You could say the same thing about Mukotsu. He’s also killed pretty quickly. But a creep like that isn’t someone you’d want around very long anyway.

As for Ginkotsu, my initial design left a lot to be desired, and I worked on improving him from there. I knew from the beginning that I wanted to try turning him into a vehicle at some point, though. Renkotsu is the type you always want as a member of a group like this, disloyal and looking to topple the leader and gain control. Having someone like him in the mix is better than having a cohesive group where everyone gets along."

Other half of the manga wideban extra.

"A Villain’s Plans

I don’t think any member of the Band of Seven was thinking very far into the future, which is exactly how I wanted them. I doubt they were thinking much of anything in the moments before their deaths. After being resurrected, all they had to act on was this temporary goal of defeating Inuyasha. I don’t think they did it because that was what they were told so much as because they just liked fighting.

The Group of Comrades I’d Always Wanted

I’d always wanted to have a group of comrades who would be defeated one at a time, like in a Masami Kurumada story. It’s so fun! I loved reading those types of stories and always wanted to try my hand at one. I knew there would be challenges, but I decided to just do my best and give it a go."

>>274753586
>>274756009
Jakotsu technically did the same thing to Suikotsu so you can't feel too bad for him.

Bump for reading

The anime did a way better job with the band
Bankotsu ending in the manga is just lame

>>274759023
I appreciate your HSR reference

>>274769165
What was the difference?

>>274762689
Jakotsu, not because of his "character" but how he doesn't care about staying alive or taking stuff. He simply remains true to his desire to murder (cute) boys till the end. I guess you could say the same about Gin and Sui but Gin is just a mindless weapon while Sui prefers the random murdering spree.

>>274769623
Inuyasha actually used bakuryuha against him

>>274770349
But he has no demonic aura?

>>274771385
In the anime, Bankotsu's ultimate attack which he achieved by storing power in Banryu by slaying 1000 humans and 1000 yokai has demonic aura.

Bankotsu with 1 shard and 3 on his sword was already being a problem for inuyasha

How did a 6 shards ones + a lost of injuries inuyasha lost????

>>274760955
>>274761106
So... it happened AGAIN

>>274761275
ENTER NARAKU (FORMA DE SEÑOR FEUDAL DEMONÍACO)

>>274762689
Jakotsu was a riot in every scene he was in.

>>274774299
No holy barrier to nerf Inuyasha.

>>274750372
Best *cue his music* moment

>>274753097
The problem is them being filler making them self contained, if they would've been brought earlier in the or having some of them around for longer they would've blend so much better

>>274754266
>Compare the Sanctuary fight against the golden saints in Saint Seiya
terrible example, that wasn't padding but the core of the arc itself

>>274755928
>>274756009
>>274756033
So in th end Renkotsu was right all along. I feel this always was up in the air. Bankotsu would've taken their shards anyway, doubtts arise only in the smart one then Bankotsu takes his shard just like usual

>>274757314
This was a great moment of the anime. Replace the Vizism with SMUG and the whole page is a good reaction pic imo

>>274776777
Trips!

>>274774299
Got cocky.

>>274761374
Thank you for posting.

>>274760684
That's a lot less dramatic than what they come up with for the anime.

>>274760992
He's all up in there.

>>274763178
Mukotsu was too strong? At least in the anime he had a special poison for yokai, but it still wasn't enough to affect Sesshomaru.

I came here to make an annoucement: Band of the 7 namek fucking sucked but had lots of wasted potential

>lots of enemies
>clashes with anyone instead of just inuyasha
>Lord Hakushin a punished monk denied of his ascension
>the whole clash between human flaws, achieving peace and corruption as a theme
>the whole looming betrayal among the band
>the tension of the group for an impending attack
But sadly this was a fodder arc so it reached 1/3rd of its potential

>>274757218
The funny thing about Koga killing Ginkotsu is that the anime even took that away from him. In the anime, Ginkotsu survived his cannon getting blown up and continued fighting. He only died because he self-destructed to protect Renkotsu and give him his shard, and the explosion is what injured Koga. So Koga didn't even get the kill, and his injury was from Ginkotsu's sacrifice instead of from his own gambit to defeat him.

>>274753097
They are like the Ginyu Forces in DB... padding.

>>274757314
derp

>>274760081
hah, shields

>>274760799
Let's never speak of these bandits ever again!

>>274761195
>>274761204
>>274761229
Hey, wait a minute...

>>274761287
Shield, of course

Kagome using her maternal right inspect Moroha's cunny and groom it orooerly

>>274762689
I like some of the designs but I barely remember who was who except for Bankotsu. But even as a kid, I always knew that this saga was just buying time.

>>274750497
God this is how people treat modern celebrities and politicians.

>>274788382
>modern

People have always treated leaders as paragons and symbols rather than human beings. Many leaders have actively leaned into that and cultivate that image.

>>274788382
older maybe. Modern celebrities aren't even treated as humans anymore

>that meltdown in hollywood in 2024
What a good year. Maybe celebrities are having a much needed purge

>>274752530
>>274752691
Whoa. Jakotsu's actually based as hell. Just became my favorite member of the 7

>>274753426
wow Inuyasha's a retard

>>274756450
heh I entered Nirvana last night. I'm Indian and my sister's name is Nirvana

>>274757328
I disagree with almost everything you've said. The trope of one guy barely beating the new enemy only to reveal he was the weakest of his group fucking sucks! I'm glad Koga got some love this arc. I also think Bankotsu is hyped up enough AND lives up to said hype.He and Inuyasha were pretty well matched despite Bankotsu only having the strength of a human when they first met. As a human, Bankotsu is at a disadvantage, so him getting a bunch of shards makes it more fair and a little more enraging when they finally showdown without something interrupting. Also, the 7 did wreak some havoc on that fortress where the halberd was kept

>>274790257
Did you y’all hear what happened in the latest Yashahime chapter? Inuyasha and Kagome finally met up with the image of Treekyo and all the InuKags are having a melty on twitter kek.

>>274749041
fleshfang kagome??
