>>283273104Kiyo is the equivalent of an older girl giving you a handie when you are too young for it so you become infactuated with a shit girl, if you are lucky someone like Kagome comes around and shows you what love and a healthy relationship can be like.
>Kikyofags
>>283273267>what love and a healthy relationship can be like
Kagome a cute
Sango a best
>>283273670Bitch only has one move
>>283273479It was a diferent time.

>>283273815What kind of time was it?
>>283274637Sengoku period
>>283273906>undead pussyHot
Why do people act like Inuyasha is a good person? He's angry, toxic, verbally abusive, emotionally abusive, and him blocking the well with the tree so that Kagome can't go home is abusive boyfriend-coded as fuck.
>>283275407He's "I can fix him" material
>>283275407He's just your typical Rumiko main male character.
>>283275484tbqh I don't see any similarities between UY and Inuyasha in writing style
>>283273104This show was just full of toxic people being toxic
>>283275407>Why do people act like Inuyasha is a good person?No one does this.
>>283275676Everyone does this
>>283273479Yet 4chan loves Haruhi despite her being abusive. Curious
>>283275813Lots of us hate that annoying whore.
Can we talk about his daughter's manga instead?
>>283276180Never watched it and never read it. And I never plan too. But if you want to talk about it you should just do it.
>>283273652More like a shit. That whore never cared that Koga was using his wolves to eat people.
I wanted to commit double suicide with Kikyou so bad when I was a kid.>>283275407>toxic>>>/r/eddit>>283276180>can we talk about garbage
>>283277093>I wanted to commit double suicide with Kikyou so bad when I was a kid.How hope you got over your mentally illness.
>>283273782Hiraikotsu!
>>283275813No one here claims to want to date Haruhi. She's more like an EVA or the Death Note. An old meme.
>>283273104>showing she never truly loved him for being a half-demonIf he used the jewel to become human it would purify it, freeing her from her duty and preventing it from being a problem. Was it manipulative? Maybe.
>>283275407I mean he's got a ton of legitimate issues and complexes that have been both literally and figuratively beaten into him throughout his entire life, yet they're almost always played for laughs. He's got a right to be a bit prickly.>him blocking the well with the tree so that Kagome can't go homeMaybe she should have thought about that before shattering the shikon jewel into tiny pieces.
>>283277947>convinces a ostracized self-hating adolescent to use the jewel to not be himself to free herself from her dutySounds pretty manipulative to me.
>>283275407But he got that BDC
>>283278932Dogs usually have pretty small dinguses overall desu, im guessing Inuyasha is packing a raging 4 inche but to be fair Kagome seems like the kind that would be way too tight to go above that anyway. Truly made for each other.Now Kikyo on the other hand is clearly a total sizequeen and needs 16 inches at the very least to even feel anything. Their love was never meant to be, sadly.
>>283277947I disagree- I think it was Kikyo's indirect Japanese way of taking their relationship to the next level; a marriage proposal of sorts. With her as a priestess and him as a half demon their relationship would have remained stagnant. Society wouldn't allow it- at best they'd accept of Inuyasha as Kikyo's servant- an inequal. Kik clearly wanted one where they were on the same footing where neither of them would be beholden to the responsibilities and social roles their powers designate them.Now that I think about it, her asking him yo become human is similar to Lelouch asking C.C.'s hand for marriage indirectly because he is a massive autismo. She doesn't have autism, but she missed out on the benefits 5 centuries of women's right privileges give to a woman's mind as well.

>>283273104Still better than Kagome somehow.
>>283288210>she's just better than KagomeStealing souls and giving Naraku more power makes her better than Kagome?
>>283288998YesJust goes to show how shit Kagome is
>>283288276Didn't feel sad she died at all.
>>283288526Based
>>283289023Explain how Kagome is worse.

>>283291358For meIt's this

>>283288167kek but same, it's an abstract kind of feel.
>>283289092She clearly wanted to die desu
>>283291398Her and inuyasha needed more interactions
>>283286741They call it petrol over in rooland.
>>283291997So do I.
>>283292025Sango is for incest zombie shota cock - exclusively.In fact, Kohaku should cum inside all the girl characters desu.
>>283291398Inuyasha x Sango was lowkey my favorite crack ship. That one hallucination segment with her hanging all over him was outrageously long overdue.
>>283292312Ah, another clear reason why Sango is hotter than Kagome.Blunt bangs supremacy.
>>283292237
>>283292312The little purple eyeliner really suits her
>>283292312Picrel is my crack ship
>>283275407Women logic
>>283275407No one thinks he's a good person, but he's an extremely typical love interest for a story aimed at a female audience
>>283277500Speak for yourself fag I would marry Haruhi so fast

>>283292049Depends on how old you are.
>>283291937I love cute girls getting caught in spider monsters' spider webs as prey.
>>283291937>Fun character dynamics between Mao and Nanoka (which are different from Rumiko's usual double tsundere leads)Then it’s not fun.

>>283273104>treats kagome like shit for no reason, even after she saves her from poison>for no reasonNow that’s just wrong, she can sense that Kagome is seething jealous of her and is only saving her for Inuyasha’s sake. (she even wishes death upon her in one episode)Why should she be nice to someone she knows secretly hates her?
>>283288246Bro she's a comb...
>>283292646You JUST know...
>>283296318Kikyo tried to kill her in (at least) one episode so she has her beat in that department

>>283298600Even she knew that life in that era is cheap
>>283298600Female writer
>>283298729same reason Yura gets ruthlessly killed off. male writer would've kept a design like that around as another wild card in the love triangle.
>>283292851Did Sesshomaru ever meet Kikyo? I don't remember.
>>283275407Why would anyone hate the only useful character who has to carry his band of ungrateful retards?
>>283299067he's cool with Miroku.
Inuyasha was more fun and interesting when he was a violent psychopath. Kagome is a sex bomb.
>>283299101Nah there’s no way he’s cool with the beekeeper
>>283299446outside of the occasional ragging on him for being too focused on women, I don't think he ever really gets into any scraps with Miroku. they're just bros from start to finish.
>>283298993>Did Sesshomaru ever meet Kikyo? No, not in the manga or anime. In a movie they meet though https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yqgfR1ERT7I
>>283275813Kusoderes like Haruhi are for rough penal bdsm hatesex that gives them a taste of their own medicine.
>>283273104When did you realize that Inuyasha is actually a kino deconstruction and subversion on the “reincarnated lovers” trope? So often when this type of trope is used in anime it treats both the reincarnation and their previous incarnation as completely interchangeable and just picking up right where the previous life left off, when realistically, being raised in a whole new environment, with a new family and new life experiences WOULD drastically change a person, and you can’t expect them to be the exact same person as their previous life. A lot of times these romances also come off feeling really artificial and forced because you’re always left wondering in the back of your mind “does character A really like character B for themselves or just because they happen to be the reincarnation of their previous lover?” Well Inuyasha as a series flips this entire concept on its head by cleverly reviving the former incarnation and having her exist at the same time as the current reincarnation to poke all the holes in this trope.
>>283300223True and good post, even though Kikyo and Kagome feel like different people down to their respective natures.
>>283300223tl;dr What do you mean? It's always been like that.
>>283300223>So often when this type of trope is used in anime it treats both the reincarnation and their previous incarnation as completely interchangeable and just picking up right where the previous life left offName 3.
>>283300746Sailor Moon for one
>>2833007611 is not 3.
I kind of realized that the al bundy effect is in play with a lot of takahashis guys. chauvinistic overly aggressive assholes that girls and guys, mostly girls love, because the female leads are usually so shrill and obnoxcious and put the guy down that the guy feels more sympathetic
>>283300223>Muh deconstructionWhat is it with /a/nons and their incessant need to hype this concept up and only consoom anime that does this? You’re not smarter or better than all the rest of us so-called “plebs” who can still enjoy series that play their tropes straight and sincerely, get over your pretentious selves.
>>283300223>>283300761Most popular anime don't do the reincarnated lovers story in a simple and direct way. Most throw some kind of spin on it or have more complexity. Sailor moon is probably the closest to playing it straight in a really popular anime.
>>283300830NTA, the one that came to My mind the quickest is Angel Beats.
>>283301381the funniest things about the yugioh openings is making us think that bitch is important in any conceivable way.
>>283291937>Nanoka isn’t your usual annoying and violent Rumic bitch>Latest chapter of Mao ended in a straightforward love confession with no tsun-tsun bullshitWhat’s happening to Rumiko, is she growing soft in her old years or something?
>>283301310Lot of projection in this post.
>>283301545Hey, don't talk that way about Yugi
>>283301561how was the inuyasha manga? kagome was insufferable in the anime
>>283299324>Inuyasha's wet dream
>>283300223>>283301381Then there's stories where lovers get reincarnated as siblings.

>>283302137Unfortunately for you, Miroku's dick is too strong for you to cut
>>283300696no, there's almost no other isekai where the reincarnated person exists at the same time as their original selves, especially not in cases of romance.
>>283301908Naraku is like one of those cucked MCs in hentai that are watching videos of their love getting fucked by the bull.
>>283299374It's no wonder Kikyo turned evil and so gloomy. She gets revived and sees she got cucked by a younger, cheerful, cuter, sexier version of herself.
>>283302335He knows better than to desecrate her. Miroku is just a horndog, not a degenerate.
>>283299374>off model fanart
The best and only Inuyasha moment worth talking about is when Tenseiga turned into Bakusaiga and CHADsshomaru singlehandedly destroyed Naraku in one swoop outshining Cuckiyasha and his Cucksaiga
>>283302425With how much Miroku gropes her butt, there's no way he didn't stick something in there at least once.
This is a middle school girl?
>>283301950>This shit argument againNone of you retarded idiots would be calling Inuyasha a shoujo if it released as a JRPG instead of an anime or manga, fucking newfags actual pseudo just aren’t used to seeing the JRPG template outside of video games.

>>283302542She was 15 so in high schoolDon't know why you're pretending she is something special, she is plain and unremarkable body-wise

>>283302801Kagome is in middle school. Look it up. Japanese middle school goes up to 9th grade. >Don't know why you're pretending she is something special, she is plain and unremarkable body-wiseThat body and figure is plain? You're crazy. And it's remarkable because she has one of the best bodies in Inuyasha despite being so young.
>>283302872Why does he look like Goku here, but evil
>>283302300>sniffing Kikyo's hairHot.
>>283299324This image reminded me that I have a Kikyo album on imgur that I should backup on another image hosting service.Also, seeing Kikyo smile is such a treat!
>>283302542>no tits>no assSure looks like a middle school girl.
>>283302497Shut up Sumisawa, nobody likes your Sesshomaru dick-sucking fanfiction “sequel.”
>>283303054>Kikyo album on imgurjust use Gelbooru and Grabber
>>283302872>wide-eyed, moe, genki JC vs dour, sad hagThe winner is obvious. And it's not Kikyo's fault that Kagome grew up in modern times with access to proper nutrition so her body developed better, but it is what it is.
>>283303152>hagNot everyone is a pedo like you Sesshomaru.
>>283302895>Japanese middle school goes up to 9th grade.9th grade is 14 years old retardKagome is 15 at the startIt's not anything special for manga even for standards of the timeBasically Rumiko ripped off Zenki; and along with it ripped off Chiaki Enno(who had bigger tits... also had plenty of nudity) and made her shit which turned into KagomeIf you think Kagome is anything special, your mind would be blown when you see 10 year old Miki Hosokawa from Jigoku Sensei Nube
>>283296635A sexy comb
>>283302895>>28330326310 year old Miki from Jigoku Sensei Nube
>>2833032639th grade is 14-15 you retard. Rewatch/reread Inuyasha. Kagome taking high school entrance exams was a big plot point. Have you even read it a first time?
>>283292851>Sesskik>crackshipUnironically more canon than Sessrin at least, Rumiko actually admitted that Kikyo is Sesshomaru’s type, and there’s even a Drama CD where they’re shipped together.She should’ve been the mother of his half-breed twins, imagine the in-law drama…
>>283302497>marysuemaru
>>283303152>The winner is obviousSure is.
>>283303410>loliconmaru
>>283275407he is a demon stuck in feudal japan for starters, so your retarded modern morality doesn't apply to him.He also tried to kill Kagome when he met her but you jump skipped that.
>>283303347>Rumiko actually admitted that Kikyo is Sesshomaru’s typeNo she didn't.
Wasn't Kikyo like 18 when she died.
>>283303718Yes
>>283303080Sequel?That was the original manga/Final Act anime
>>283303347>Rumiko actually admitted that Kikyo is Sesshomaru’s typeSesshomaru's type is exclusively pre-pubescent.
>>283303324It's basically close to high school my dudeHer being 15 means she is in the 2nd semester already
>>283303410He's cool compared to Inuyasha, that's all that matters
>>283303638I don't think he was actually trying to kill her. Probably just trying to scare her. If Inuyasha was trying to kill Kagome, she would be dead. It also seems out of character for everything else we know about him.
>>283299924>>283303978he definitely tried to kill her at first. Remember he also killed villagers shortly before Kikyo pinned him to the tree. He was severely hurt and betrayed and absolutely detested humans at that point because he thought Kikyo had stabbed him in the back.
>>283304084ignore the ~924 quote, forgot to it from a prior message
>>283273104I started to watch this anime because I stayed up late one day and saw a clip of it on adult swim where they were in a hot springs naked. I could never finish it. Its just endless slop. Like 100+ episodes of shit with just enough sprinkles of main plot and romance to keep you interested. Still wasn't enough for me.
>>283304084Show him actually killing villagers. He didn't.
>>283301310They've been conditioned to think deconstruction is intellectual as if it takes a high IQ to destroy something.
>>283302497Sesshomaru only destroyed Naraku's body. Kagome was the one who killed Naraku. And if it weren't for Inuyasha using meido zangetsu (and some assistance from Miroku's wind tunnel), Naraku's falling body would've flattened the village.
>>283304190the place is burning and there are people laying on the ground. obviously Takahashi isn't going to show her deuteragonist killing innocents onscreen, but if you have any concept of narrative you can tell what's being implied.
>>283298600
>>283303782>He's cool compared to Inuyash-ACK!
>>283304351Rumiko noticed that Inuyasha wasn't really keeping up with Sesshomaru in everything like power level, coolness and relevance so did this. Even after this Inuyasha couldn't outpace him.
>>283275407be patient he is autistic
>>283304438>Even after this Inuyasha couldn't outpace himLmao. Pedomaru shit himself the first time he saw Inuyasha's demon form.
>>283275407>Mulatto coded protagonist is a violent delinquentLike pottery.
>>283304190okay so if he isn't successful at killing than it doesn't count got it.The villagers were the women controlled by Yura that Kaede told him to not kill and he didn't care i think
>>283304749>okay so if he didn't actually do it then it doesn't countCorrect.
>>283304438Wasn't that one of the earliest episodes?
>>283304278Okay Inuyasha committed some property damage and arson and it injured some villagers. But that's not proof he killed the villagers.
>>283304748>Only Demon male/Human female half-demons>Never the other way aroundNo seriously, what the FUCK did Rumiko mean by this?!?
What was Sunrise's problem?
>>283304964Female demons have higher standards.
>>283304879>we never saw him take a shit so you have no proof he ever needs to shitthis is the scope of your argument
>>283304964series is meant for women, despite running in a shonen mag. the demon males were exotic wankbait for female readers, they're supposed to fantasise about the male demons and self insert/identify with the human females.
>>283304996Yeah, Kikyo didn't wear socks in the manga, so why did the anime give her socks and cover up her feet. What the fuck was their problem?
>>283305727Shrine Maidens are supposed to wear tabi socks and the reed sandals.
>>283305747Kikyo did wear tabi socks in life but not after getting revived.
>>283305773if her kimono and hakama got magically recreated, than so too would her socks and sandals.
>>283273104wasn't kagome the reincarnation of kikyo? how can there be 2? which one was a zomba
>>283305839I take it you never watched the series
rin chads ww@?
>>283305884should post some art if you want people to talk about her
>>283305791Except even in the anime when Kikyo first got resurrected, she was barefoot. Her tabi socks didn't get recreated but she still wore them after. No matter how you try to justify it, it was a worse change from the manga.
>>283305839Kagome is from centuries into the future relative to Kikyo's death, and Kikyo was was brought back to life as a golem with an artificial body. She spends most of the series despairing over how she was denied peace in death, and trying to find a way to return back to the world of the dead because she doesn't feel like she belongs amongst the living.
>>283305909my point was her not having them at the moment of resurrection was a mistake.
>>283305884I'm happy that she canonically won
>>283305903she is pure and not for display
>>283305706Inuyasha taking a shit is irrelevant for the plot and we know it's a normal biological function everyone has. Inuyasha killing innocent humans has huge implications for his character. False equivalence.
>>283304749>The villagers were the women controlled by Yura that Kaede told him to not kill and he didn't care i thinkKaede told him not to hurt them and he replied that they can't worry about that when they're being attacked.
>>283301729In the anime, Kagome got mad when she found out about the alarm clock. There's also like fewer than 10 instances of Kagome using sit in the manga.
>>283306075>canonicallyNope.
>>283303347Isn't there a drama CD that hints at Sessrin too, though?
>>283301054It also works the other way around. The guys are so boorish and mean sometimes that you understand why the girls get sick of their guys' shit
>>283306329yeah? he attacked them in spite of that
