Alright, it is Thursday and I am gonna post the tenth volume of Yashahime Princess Half-Demon. 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 related to Yashahime (or Inuyasha) after the dump.Yashahime was initially created as an anime-only sequel to Inuyasha by Sunrise. The designs of the main cast were provided by Rumiko Takahashi. I have not watched the anime. The manga adaptation was made after the first season and was written and drawn by Takashi Shiina, the creator of Ghost Sweeper Mikami and most likely the biggest Rumiko Takahashi fan in the world. As such, I decided to read and story time this series as well. My commentary will be sparse as I am completely new to the series, but I hope you enjoy the look into Shiina's take on the Inuyasha world.Previous thread: >>288531827I will be using the official localization of the manga by VIZ. Be aware that some of the larger images may have been edited to be lower quality due to image size limits. Unfortunately, my source of the scans does not have Vol. 9-10 and I didn't want to take a quality hit, so I am going to use worse image of the cover and use the VIZ localized version of the individual chapters for the final two volumes. I apologize.
Cover's on the next page. February 25th, 2024. Author's note:"Why do I keep buying more plastic models even though I only put them together occasionally?"
>>288663865There it is. As before, since Furinkan has translated the entirety of Shiina's blog entry, I'll be posting it in the tail end of the related chapter.
Standing by for requests.>>288663828Welcome back OP. Someone last thread asked what you plan to do after this week.
Hello OP
>>288663885Per Furinkan: "As debris from the comet rains down it strikes Ikkoku-kan, the apartment from Maison Ikkoku." I didn't actually catch this. But yeah, Shiina mentions it in his blog. He loves referencing all of the Rumic World.
>>288663954Oh? >>288663932>>288663942Hi! I saw that, but I assumed they were just making a joke since there hasn't been any more volumes of MAO released (pretty much). I'm done! I got nothing left to dump until MAO's completed (I honestly never planned on dumping an ongoing series in the first place) or I decide to redo my Urusei Yatsura dump. I think I'm going to hold off on redoing my UY dump since otherwise, I'd basically be just restarting and I would end up going forever. I do wish those earlier threads were a bit cleaner and had more interesting commentary, but that's how it goes.
>>288664013Per Furinkan: ""Did the strap of your "brah" snap?" - Moroha says "brassiere" in hiragana (ぶらじゃ) rather than katakana (ブラジャー) since it is an unfamiliar word to her."
>>288664034I wonder if there's any actual effect with the color of the outfit.
>>288664054What yokai stuff is visible and what stuff isn't to normal people is only ever loosely defined.
>>288664084Per Furinkan: "The Touto Dome is obviously the Tokyo Dome. It is currently holding a concert for "Six Mews" which is a reference to SixTONES and NEWS, both groups having done theme songs for the Yashahime anime."
>>288664095Another note from Furinkan: ""An 'Eye-Dol' event?" - Just as she did with "bra", Moroha says "idol" in hiragana as "あいどる" rather than in katakana "アイドル"."
>>288664122Naturally.
>>288664034>Towa tits>Towa panty shotShiina is so fucking based
>>288663828>Yashahime ThursdayIt's time. OP will finally go on to the re-incarnation wheel, hopefully he reincarnates into a someone who chooses a mangaka with less amount volumes per work
>>288664133
>>288664084It feels like there is some sort of spell placed in the modern era that turns all modern yokai invisible or something, for some reason.
>>288664160>Pause to aura farmthey really ARE Sesshomaru's daughters.
>>288664160!>>288664159I'll just do Golgo 13 next, yeah? Just have to find some fan translations. (This is a joke, I have not read that series and I am pretty sure there's no fan translation, I'd have to learn Japanese and typesetting)
>>288664222Avenge it!>>288664178Well, it didn't apply to the Mask thing, but it was fused with human beings so that could be a factor. I am trying to remember what other yokai we've seen in modern day. There was the piper, but it was invisible to most people.
>>288664255Hop to it. The stairs and elevator are closed.
>>288664265Have to mess up a post in every thread. I fixed it though.
>>288664330When all you have is a hammer...
>>288664340
>>288664362Their signature moves! More or less.
>>288664372!
>>288664407Visually, pretty cool.
>>288664421Everyone going into their most powerful form.
>>288664443!
>>288664421If someone doesn't see this as escalation they're delusional lmao
>>288664450I imagine you can see where this is headed.
>>288664255We saw the centipede girl in Chapter 1, but she came through the time tunnel thing from the past, and things from the past seem to be exempt.
>>288664467Meanwhile...
>>288664477!!>>288664470Well, also, did anyone besides Kagome see her? Kagome has spiritual attunement going for her.
>>288664508I meant the centipede girl in Yashahime's chapter 1. Sota commented that she even appeared on the camera, unlike the ghost thing.
>>288664508Alright, let's squeeze in Shiina's blog post. Split over multiple posts. Furinkan's translation."The final battle takes place in a certain tower, in keeping with the anime. In the anime, there is a wide scaffolding on the upper floor, and the princesses are stationed there. After looking into it, I found that there is no structure like that in reality. Please understand that "the building in the story is fictional, with the scaffolding on top of the digital terrestrial broadcasting antenna."Although the storyline in which the dome stadium in Tokyo was cut, I found a spot where the dome can be seen from the Shuto Expressway when I checked Google Maps, so I briefly depicted it there. By the way, Moroha's line "It's not peaceful" is a little joke that references the voice actor and Sunrise's work. Also, Ikkoku-kan makes a cameo appearance (?) in the confusion, and the actual location is said to be an image of Higashi-Nagasaki, where Rumiko Takahashi-sensei lived at the time, so it would be strange for it to appear when the attack is heading towards the city center from Nerima. However, I couldn't help but include it even though I was worried that Takahashi-sensei might get angry at me, which is my complicated fanboy mentality."https://cnanews.asablo.jp/blog/2025/03/
>>288664575More blog post, translated by Furinkan:"If the Earth is the size of a soccer ball, the Moon is about the size of a tennis ball, with an orbital radius of about 7 meters. It's surprisingly far away. But on a cosmic scale, another small celestial body passing that distance is a near miss. If they get that close over a period of several hundred years, it seems like a collision would be inevitable over a span of hundreds of millions of years, but I guess that's what's made it work with the divine powers of Amaterasu. I interpreted the fact that it "appears above Japan" as being made possible by some spiritual mechanism, and that's why the setting for the Grim Comet is like that. I connected that to the logic that "cutting off the connection will make it work somehow."Towa-chan needs to wear her original suit in the final battle, so she changed in the car. And then I realized that if I went with the flow of the manga, I could draw "Riku fighting in a suit" (laughs)." >>288664533Ah, right.
>>288664508>>288664575Bro wtf is happening
>>288664613More blog post translation by Furinkan. Spoiled the stuff pertaining to next chapter. "Although it's a bit forced, preparations are complete for the all-star cast to gather at the climax. It looks like we'll be able to land the story in a way that's close to the anime. However, in the comicalization, Sango-sama is set to be 3-4 months pregnant, so even though her belly isn't that noticeable, I can't let her go on a rampage. So, I thought of a projectile to replace the "Black Hiraikotsu", but the idea I'm currently working on is a literal projectile, or rather, it's a bit of a foul play, so I'm not sure if it's okay until I actually draw it. So, whether I use it or not, I'll tell you the details next time.Oh, that's right, last time it was Inuyasha sleeping in the futon next to Kagome. I drew it thinking that they were a married couple, so of course they were sleeping with their pillows side by side, but later my family said to me, "No, this also looks like a depiction of Rin-chan being there," and I was like, "Ah" (laughs). It was a rare opportunity to casually depict daily life after Inuyasha, but what a jerk I was."I do like that Shiina acknowledged it is a bit forced, but I mean, that's just how it is. Some clichés are okay, right? Took me a bit to understand what he was talking about with the last bit, but basically, we see Kagome wake up in a futon with an empty spot next to her. And then she goes outside and asks Inuyasha if he's seen Rin. So yeah, muddled it a bit.
>>288664696Everyone.
>>288664714End of chapter! Hmph.
Cover's on the next page. Well, next two pages.March 25th, 2024. Author's note:"Every time I pay the bill at a convenience store I think, "It's more expensive than I thought.""
>>288664696>>288664714>>288664724>Everyone, lend your energy!Never would I have guessed we would get an Inuyasha Genki Dama moment.
>>288664743
>>288664749Yeah, VIZ has a typo in this chapter of all things. There's another one in this volume later on. It irks me. What are these editors doing?
>>288664778Of all of the characters to get first blood, I guess it should be the fastest one (Not a power scaling thing, don't correct me).
>>288664790
>>288664778>Thivs10/10, Viz. Quality work. Well done.>>288664790Nice shot Koga, you were useful for once. I think.>>288664801Oh shit are we gonna see SessMama fight too???
>>288664801Is this out of character? Probably not for the more active Sesshomaru's mother character of Yashahime. Honestly, for me it is worth it just to see the dog form.
>>288664823The grim commentary has gotten a bit silly.
>>288664843
>>288664855Furinkan reminds us that: "Mahiruma (Mayonaka) and Oharu return, having debuted back in chapter 18."
>>288664823>>288664843I've said it before and I'll say it again, Shiina is looking for each and every excuse he can use to show off the dog forms.
>>288664865
>>288664877The demon slayers strike.
>>288664908Aah, so it's like that, huh. I understand everything now.
>>288664908Bro is fucking flabbergasted.Shiina really wanted EVERYONE to contribute, huh? Gotta say this is way better than the Anime, where the Grim Comet just turned into a moth kaiju and flew around absorbing yokai.
>>288664940So, if you're wondering why the three managed to do this, they got a little boost. From the pinwheel. In the past.
>>288664963!
>>288664977In case you're wondering why the hesitation, it is because Sango's pregnant. In case you forgot.
>>288664992Surprise!
>>288664977>SangoMY QUEEN IS HERE
>>288665000I do like that they skipped the usual worrying about not having the tunnel and just had them use as many ofuda as possible.
>>288665000>Ginkotsu cannons reveal>TripsYup, this thread is blessed.
>>288665041
>>288665048I do like the visual here.
>>288665080The Grim Comet looks so genuinely confused here hahaha
>>288665080I assume Shiina went full pop science in the original Japanese as well. Bit funny to have Amaterasu say it.
>>288665000Humilliation ritual for the 7.
>>288665112
>>288665121>ENTERRR
>>288665121The meido zangetsuha, I assume. Given the black Tessaiga.
>>288665152
>>288665165So, yeah, that fanart was a spoiler but admittedly, it could've also just been fanart. And it was clearly a different instance, given that it is clearly nighttime.
>>288665176Pew!
>>288665176>Rin heard someone was talking shit
>>288665182Alright, let's post the Shiina blogpost. Translated by Furinkan, splitting over multiple posts. "So, I decided that the weapon that Sango used to replace the "Black Hiraikotsu" from the anime version would be Ginkotsu-senpai. To be precise, it's just the shell of Ginkotsu.I had been thinking about whether I could touch on the Band of Seven at least briefly somewhere. But if I did, their characters would have stood out too much and it would have ruined the flow of the story of Yashahime, so this appearance was the limit for me, sorry. I don't think the fans were expecting Ginkotsu (laughs), but I thought it would be a good cameo appearance for a demon exterminator, touching on the past of that world where there was a battle with them, in a setting that seemed plausible.Actually, a few chapters ago, when Towa and the others were chasing Riku back to the present, I had the idea that they would get lost in a space-time rift and go to the past, briefly breaking into the world of Inuyasha (that would allow for various past characters, including the Band of Seven, to appear, or even have them interact with their parents from the past and play at Back to the Future. At the end, Kanna would guide them with her mirror and they would return to the future), and so on. I was excited for a moment as the fan-made dreams unfolded. But this comicalization is based on the anime Yashahime: Princess Half-Demon, and my mission is to reconstruct it compactly as a manga. It's been quite a while since the anime ended, and I thought it would be too much of a hassle to take such an interesting detour instead of heading straight for the conclusion, so I gave up."https://cnanews.asablo.jp/blog/2025/03/29/Man, he almost went full fanfiction there. Would've been something. Certainly would've lasted a lot longer.
>>288665220More translation of the blog post:"I think the plot of overlapping battles from two different eras and locations into one is not a bad shortcut to the story, but when I actually drew it, I realized that the tempo got worse because I had to explain it every time the scene changed, so I had a hard time with the rough drafts. I came up with an approach where the characters are beaten one after another without knowing why, from the perspective of the Grim Comet, and I managed to get it just right. I wanted Rin-chan to play an important role, so I put her sniper shot at the end to manipulate the impression that it was the final blow. In reality, the Ginkotsu Cannon was probably the fatal blow (laughs). I was also happy to be able to draw the coordinated attack of Inuyasha and Kagome, the main characters of the original series.After all that, Rumiko Takahashi-sensei said, "It was momentous and amusing," and I managed to clear the last challenging part, the climax festival battle event where all the stars appear. The next chapter will be the conclusion of the relationship between Sesshomaru and Kirinmaru.It looks like the story will be able to continue right up to the final scene, "while the details have been reconstructed to make it something completely different, the framework remains similar to the anime."" I think Furinkan may have mistranslated something here? But yeah. I find it funny that he thinks Ginkotsu was the fatal blow and not Inuyasha's attack, but it is a big cannon, I guess. Eat that up, powerscalers.
>>288665176GET OFF MY LAWN
>>288665266Oh, Furinkan also mentioned some tweets by Shiina around this time."Shiina explained that Ginkotsu was a character he particularly liked during Inuyasha on his Twitter account. He explained that the character reminded him of someone from Kamen no Ninja Akakage (仮面の忍者・赤影) He humorously added that he felt that he was the only one that could replace Sango's black Hiraikotsu. Further he stated, "I remember that when firing, Sango said "Rampage!" and it made me sad. No, it was a joke in the character song. Those who know will know." This is a reference to the character song "Abarero!!" by Bankotsu and Jakotsu." https://x.com/Takashi_Shiina/status/1904407156339921274https://x.com/Takashi_Shiina/status/1904197476485362030
>>288665292Ah, here was the other typo. Enanglement. Ridiculous. VIZ, you managed 9 volumes. Why now? And yeah, I assume the pop science jargon was in the original Japanese as well. Minor pet peeve of mine, but it isn't a dealbreaker.
>>288665313End of chapter! What happens now?
>>288665266>Eat that up, powerscalers.A Ginkotsu upscale in 2026 is wild
Cover is on the next page.April 25th, 2025. Author's note:"Gundam plastic models are too expensive for me to afford." Furinkan mistakenly labeled the last two chapters as being from 2024 and I posted that. They are not. They are from 2025.
>>288665435
>>288665313>I assume the pop science jargon was in the original Japanese as well.Yuuup.>時空を越えて「所縁」を結び「量子もつれや重ね合わせ」を発生させたのだとしたら…>If, across space-time, it forged a connection and gave rise to 'quantum entanglement' and 'superposition'...
>>288665446A rude awakening. Not much moral grayness here. >>288665481Yeah, figures. I didn't think VIZ would take such liberties.
>>288665515Another Furinkan note regarding Shiina's twitter: "Four days before the publication of the chapter, Shiina-sensei tweeted, "The rough draft is done. There is still an epilogue, but this is essentially the final chapter.""https://x.com/Takashi_Shiina/status/1914216883198529698
>>288665534
>>288665515>Such Depravity!!>Such WEAKNESS!!I know people have been shitting on the Anime this whole storytime but this line I absolutely read with Crispin Freeman's voice in my head. He was a good pick for Kirinmaru's English VA.
>>288665547Sesshomaru panel. Read what you can into it.
>>288665610Like daughter like father...
>>288665635Another Furinkan note regarding a Shiina tweet: "He also tweeted, "For all Kirinmaru x Sesshomaru fans, we will deliver a conclusion between the two with a different flavor from the anime version. The June issue of Sunday S special edition, which features the 44th chapter of Yashahime: Princess Half-Demon, 'Journey's End,' has been released!""https://x.com/Takashi_Shiina/status/1915426966947365078
>>288665656
>>288665664
>>288665673
>>288665679Face-off!
>>288665687!
>>288665712I do like the idea of Jaken somehow stopping this.
>>288665740This scene was from Inuyasha's anime and was not present in the manga. Though, Rumiko Takahashi did refer to this anime original episode when asked about how Sesshomaru and Jaken met.
>>288665762!!
>>288665769
>>288665790Two spreads, back to back.
>>288665794
>>288665798Would've been quite an ending for Sesshomaru to bite it here.
>>288665804I think I can post the blog post now. Furinkan's translation, split over multiple posts."What did you think of the end of the battle between Kirinmaru and Sesshomaru, which was finally depicted?The anime focused primarily on the story of the Yashahime, minimizing the fact that it was a sequel to Inuyasha, but the comicalization was reconstructed as a derivative work of an Inuyasha spin-off, with Sesshomaru at the core. While it depicts the growth of the daughters as the main characters, it is actually also a story of Sesshomaru's growth. So the story ended with a one-on-one battle between Sesshomaru and Kirinmaru. I thought that the presentation of "a battle that is decided with one blow, and for a moment it looks like the enemy has won, but in fact the main character has won" was a very cliched element that I've seen countless times since I was a child, but that was the only option here...or rather, I couldn't think of anything better, so I went with the cliched approach.The relationship between Rion and Kirinmaru was simplified and abbreviated. By simply saying that he had lost his mind and become a villain, a number of pages was saved, but he may have become a little weak as a villain. The power relationship between Kirinmaru and Sesshomaru has been reversed in many ways since the end of the anime, but it adds depth and a different direction, such as "Kirinmaru was also one of the family members that Sesshomaru wanted to save" and "He was someone he admired as a boy and compared him to his late father." It also has more of an appeal as a sequel to the anime original masterpiece "Swords of an Honorable Ruler," so this is good in its own way. Also, I was amused by the very minor detail that "Kirinmaru punches Kirin-sensei" was changed to "Sesshomaru punches Kirinmaru," but maybe it's too minor and doesn't matter (laughs)."https://cnanews.asablo.jp/blog/2025/04/Appreciate that he calls himself out for the cliche. And Kirinmaru being meh.
>>288665794>>288665798Damn, I think we've only seen Sesshomaru get hurt like. Three times, I think? Kirinmaru doing that much is crazy.
>>288665856Other half of blog post:"My favorite scene this time was not even the duel or the ending, but rather "Jaken talking about his feelings for Sesshomaru." The meeting between the two was depicted in an original episode of the TV anime version of Inuyasha, and the flashback of him receiving the Staff of Two Heads at the waterfall was picked up from there. In the anime, it's depicted a little comically, with Jaken saying things like "He's so handsome!!" but it's so emotional that he says, "I met the angel of slaughter on the battlefield, and fell in love at first sight with his strength and beauty, and I threw everything away and dedicated my life to him." It was a joy for me as a Jaken and Kohaku fan to be able to add Kohaku, who gently stands by the elderly Jaken as he talks about his feelings. It's a small scene, but it's filled with respect for Sumisawa-sensei, who skillfully delved into the world of Rumiko Takahashi-sensei's Sengoku Otogi Zoushi, and my love for the characters. Just like Sesshomaru-sama in the series, I also follow in the footsteps of Takahashi-sensei and Sumisawa-sensei.Well, with this, all the battles in the story have been settled. Next time, there will be an extra page, epilogue part 1, set in the present day. The storyboard turned out better than I expected, and I received praise from Rumiko Takahashi-sensei and my editor, so please look forward to it." Oh and Swords of an Honorable Ruler is the third Inuyasha movie. I haven't seen it. It is the film where Toga's human form is depicted (designed by Rumiko Takahashi). I also think that's when he is named.
>>288665881Goodbye, you two. >>288665861I mean, I still think about his arm getting cut off.
>>288663865Sex with Sota.
>>288665892!
>>288665902
>>288665936We get a rare peek into Sesshomaru's head.
>>288665944
>>288665962End of chapter. Buyo...
May 23rd, 2025. Author's note:"The next chapter will be the final chapter."And yes, this is after he tweeted that the last chapter was essentially the final chapter.
>>288666000Per Furinkan: "Towa is waiting in front of the statue of Hachiko, the loyal dog who awaited the return of her deceased master at Shibuya Station in Tokyo. This is a common meet-up spot in Tokyo."
>>288666006I'm not really a fashion guy, but this is quite a look.
>>288666016I see, a disguise.
>>288666025No longer just a creepy glare, it seems.
>>288666056Riku. Re. 9. Get it? No? Well, it is one of those number puns where they use a variety of readings of a number. And yeah, Shiina or whoever probably should've just drawn the Re. 9 on the hat in the final panel rather than whatever this is.
>>288665804You mean to tell me Kirinmaru and the great dog demon fought for decades and neither won, but Sesshomaru killed him in one blow?
>>288665970>Setsuna getting smothered in lovecute
>>288666087I googled "Tokyo ristorante e caffe" and got that this place is a parody of Saizeriya, a budget Italian cafe chain. Well, I say cafe, but they're family-style restaurants.
>>288666122Good portions.>>288666094Well, Sesshomaru did have a thousand years to practice.
>>288666135So, yeah, it was not a big deal. Somehow. Just a bit of drama for the first chapter.
>>288666149
>>288666094Pretty sure it's meant to literally be Sesshy seeking proof he has surpassed his father.
>>288666153Quite an idea.
>>288666173
>>288666180
>>288663954But is the Tendou dojo safe?
>>288666189Prophecies do give comfort. Not that Rion's was a prophecy.
>>288666199
>>288666206I do appreciate this redraw.
>>288666231And this one.
>>288666237
>>288666242Furinkan notes that: "The girls are shown catching the pool demon from Urusei Yatsura." Of course, I caught that. The "pool demon" or プール妖怪 or pool yokai or whatever you want to call him has a very memorable design. Shiina does talk about the little cameo on his blog.
>>288666261
>>288666270Another reference to the violin from the anime.
>>288666277
>>288666277>keyboard>flute>violin>synth keyboardThat must sound like shit tbqh
>>288666287More Buyo. Also, I do appreciate that they got to live more in the modern era. I am not sure why. I guess because I like their little extended stay with the family and some modern comforts.
>>288666304I'll be honest, I realize I don't know what Riku is holding. A sword? I feel like that wouldn't make much sense.
>>288666321!
>>288666331Where else? Shiina resisted having it be used earlier.
>>288666363
>>288665861Inuyasha twice and Magatsuhi?
>>288666367Ah, well, that'll do it.
>>288666383Quite a cut.
>>288666392
>>288666378Yeah. First was the arm, second was the point blank Wind Scar that led to him meeting Rin, third time was Magatsuhi which lead to Bakusaiga.
>>288666398
>>288666398Now this is a great parallel. I fucking kneel
>>288666406Tackled!
>>288666398>The fucking CALLBACK>>288666406>Sesshy's eyes look so gentle and relieved10/10.
>>288666424I think I can start posting Shiina's blog post. Translated by Furinkan, split over multiple posts. "As this is effectively the final chapter, the story could have ended here without any problems.By making Riku and Kirin-sensei the same individual, an option arises for Riku and Towa to live in the present day. The reason I had the pool monster from Urusei Yatsura make a cameo appearance in the sea scene is to allow readers to imagine that "while the Yashahime and Riku are in the present day, there will be many lively and fun adventures." Since it's a monster, it doesn't destroy the worldview... I think. I also wanted to draw a school arc, so the title page is an illustration to represent that.Towa and Setsuna live in Sota's apartment, Moroha and Riku live in the Higurashi household, and Riku seems to have been helping and taking care of grandpa. Although Moe-Mama in the manga world is not a professional musician, I thought "maybe she graduated from music college and is a teacher or something?", so I mixed in some scenes of her playing instruments. I had previously drawn Setsuna's violin on the cover, so I thought it was fine, but I thought the electronic violin was fresh, so I used it. Towa plays the melodica, thinking "Should I play a flute like in the anime? If there's one in this house, it's a flute? But it's hard to play, right?" Playing the violin is difficult, too (laughs), but unlike Towa, who has become a little blunter after coming into contact with modern common sense during her growth, Setsuna has the undiluted cheat protagonist correction power that the inhabitants of the fairy tale world have...or so I interpret it. So she can play it at first sight."Funny reasoning for her picking up the violin like a natural. Those stories do often go that route.
>>288666454More blog post. Translated by Furinkan. I forgot to post the link. Also, the final bit is about the last page of this chapter, so I guess I'll post it on the last page."I decided that the route back would be the Bone-Eater's Well. I didn't completely omit the setting of Akuru from the anime version, who opened the way in exchange for his life, but rather split it into the Tree of Ages and the windmill. If you could travel back and forth between time and space so easily, the foundation of the story world would crumble, so I think the contextual structure that something has to be sacrificed for that is correct. So meta-wise, the disappearance of the Tree of Ages is a substitute for Akuru. In addition, I also constructed a logic that "due to the scheme of the Tree of Ages, the only way for Akuru to get the windmill back was to retrieve the Yashahime from the future," and in fact this is written in Kagome's letter to Towa... but I decided to omit it all because I thought it would be better to devote pages to the description of the main characters rather than explaining it. At the very least, you can understand that "they were able to return because of the power of the windmill."As a result, the scene where Sesshomaru re-enacts the last scene from Inuyasha turned out quite well. Rather than a sci-fi-like manga logic, the time travel is based on the sentimental theme of "If you believe and love with all your heart, the world of fairy tales will welcome you," and Sesshomaru embodies this by coming to welcome you...isn't this the dream of every Inuyasha fan? No matter what anyone says, this is the only depiction that will be used in the manga...well, it's no good if Rumiko Takahashi-sensei says it's not okay. But I was happy that I got the okay and was praised.(*^_^*)"So, the logic he says is sound, but it would've eaten up some pages for little gain.
>>288666454>she brought the whole future with her back to the past
>>288666479I was going to post this with the last post, but it was too much. More blog post."Moroha's luggage was originally going to be the backpack Kagome used to carry. But it was more interesting to make it huge so it's easy to see, and I also wanted to give Kagome a lot of supplies before we say goodbye, so that's how it is. It's rude to point out that "there's no way you can fit that through the well." But we made it much smaller so that it was just within the limits of acceptable fiction with digital adjustments. If we'd made it a size that you could actually fit through, it would have been too small and boring, so there was no point." https://cnanews.asablo.jp/blog/2025/05/Remembered the link this time.

>>288666498
>>288666508Very cool.
>>288666508>>288666519*cue in Fukai Mori*
>>288666519End of chapter! Here's that final bit from Shiina's blog. "I was worried about the last page, wondering if it would be better to end with Sesshomaru flying off into the sky. However, I chose to end it from the perspective of the Higurashi family, who were left behind. Since I started this comicalization with the idea of "I want to draw it as my work that speaks of my love for Rumiko Takahashi-sensei's works," it was right for me to end the story from the perspective of the real world, not the world of Otogi-zoshi world. However, that would force the reader to end it from the perspective of the "left behind," which is a pretty bitter ending. When I thought, "What should I do... it's practically the final chapter...", I realized, "Well, the next episode is the final chapter, so it's okay to end it bitterly here." In other words, the actual final chapter is not necessarily the final chapter, but it is an chapter that shows the possibility that such an ending is possible.So next installment will be the true final chapter! There will be no secret final chapter or new final installment. While there will be some adjustments, the comicalization will generally follow the same outline as the anime, and it will end in line with the flow of the anime. We'll stick to that style until the very end, with lots of little adjustments thrown in, so please look forward to the finished product!"
The grand finale. Fortunately, we got this cover in color. Towa wearing a look more suited to the Sengoku period. Oh and I have a Furinkan note regarding twitter:"In subsequent tweets after the publication of this chapter but prior to the final chapter's release Shiina stated, "The final chapter of Yashahime was so much fun to draw. I think it's good for manga artists to draw some kind of comicalization on a regular basis. At least for me, I feel like something is fulfilled when I do an adaptation." and further added, "It'll be sad to say goodbye to Inuyasha and the others once this is completed, but even though he's the son of Rumiko Takahashi-sensei, we've been working together for three and a half years.""https://x.com/Takashi_Shiina/status/1928907727398428675https://x.com/Takashi_Shiina/status/1928908354455482534June 25th, 2025. Author's note:"It's been a wonderful four years for Rumic fans. Let's meet again somewhere."
>>288666558More trivia from Furinkan: "Written on the final page of the Shonen Sunday S publication is a message saying, "Thank you for reading for the past four years. The final volume of the manga, the final eight chapters, will be released on August 18th (Monday)!! Please look forward to Takashi Shiina-sensei's next work."The title of the chapter "See You Tomorrow" (また明日/Mata Ashita) is a call back to the final chapter of Inuyasha, simple called "Tomorrow" (明日/Ashita)." But the final volume didn't have 8 chapters. Maybe this is why Furinkan was confused? Anyway, moving on.
>>288666581
>>288666602
>>288666613Hey, Shiina got to put in a use of Adamant Barrage.
>>288666649
>>288666657You remember all these moves, yeah?
>>288666679Where my mind went as well.
>>288666688
>>288666705Unei apparently did appear in the Yashahime anime. Not sure in what capacity. I also was unable to find the Japanese spelling of his name.
>>288666726Aizu is a region.
>>288666733
>>288666743Hehehe, Inuyasha has been a bit too cool in Yashahime so far.
>>288666756!!
>>288666762
>>288666777I like this. I'm glad Shiina is taking care to note their original dynamic.
>>288666787
>>288666791Hence the outfit on the cover.
>>288666806!
>>288666816
>>288666824I'm happy that the plan is coming to fruition.
>>288666831Heh, I like Inuyasha's take on this. It certainly feels more Sesshomaru. I feel like a thousand years is not a hellish torture if you're always thinking about what's right in front of you.
>>288666841
>>288666845Of course, we get a lot of cute moments. And even though this story was about Sesshomaru and his family, we get to see some with our original pair of protagonists.
>>288666853Good to see you. And it is nice that we've come full circle with Takechiyo.
>>288666858
>>288666863On the high seas.
>>288666871Japan's isolationist era was when the sakoku policy was put in place. So from 1603 to 1868.

>>288666895Hm?
>>288666908!!
>>288666919
>>288666930...
>>288666938
>>288666941Alright, now seems like a good time to start posting Shiina's blogpost. Translated by Furinkan, split across multiple posts. "I think the final chapter is structured pretty close to the original anime. I don't need to explain the arrangements here, but I think you'll understand my intentions and the amount I put into it.That said, "Not only the daughters, but Sesshomaru and Rin also go on a honeymoon (?)"... this was actually something I didn't expect. I wanted to end it with a line that was similar to Kagome's in the final chapter of Inuyasha, saying "Sesshomaru has ended the time loop and is walking towards a new tomorrow," and "He will build that new tomorrow with Rin," and as I was directing the conversation in that direction, that couple ended up going on a trip too.On the one hand, I thought, "It ends with a boy and girl setting off into the future, as is typical in a shonen manga, but the parents who are supposed to see them off also set off into the future, which is a pattern you don't see very often (laughs)," but on the other hand, I'm excited that Sesshomaru, Rin, and Jaken-sama's journey is about to begin again. Well, while depicting the tale of Yashahime's coming of age, the underlying theme was Sesshomaru's youth and growth, so this might be okay... and so the comicalization ends with a double departure."https://cnanews.asablo.jp/blog/2025/06/
>>288666953More blog post translation."Personally, I think I did a pretty good job all the way through. Of course, when I reread it, I have regrets about various imperfections and shortcomings, but I did my best to draw it given the conditions I was in at the time, so now I feel a great sense of accomplishment having completed it to the end.It's impossible to get everyone to agree on the interpretation of someone else's intellectual property, so I apologize to those who didn't like it. After many twists and turns, the anime project turned out to be what it was, and I put in what I wanted to do as long as it didn't destroy the general framework, and put it together as a manga, which was approved by Rumiko Takahashi-sensei. At the very least, it is in line with the shared tastes of Takahashi-sensei, Sumisawa-san, myself, the editor in charge, and especially Sunday's Okamoto-san, who is a big fan of Inuyasha, and my wife who was a former chief assistant at Rumiko Pro, so please enjoy it as one of the possible solutions to the Sengoku Otogi Zoshi world. In the play, I said that "the universe spreads its branches and leaves" so as not to deny other possibilities that everyone has. Somewhere, there may be a universe where Takahashi-sensei changes her mind one day and draws a completely new Sengoku Otogi Zoshi world that is different from this one...I certainly hope so."Furinkan also notes that: "Shiina-sensei mentions "Sunday's Okamoto and his own wife. This is referring to Riri Okamoto (岡本吏莉), Rumiko Takahashi's current editor and Aya Shimizu (清水彩), who worked as Takahashi's assistant during Urusei Yatsura, Maison Ikkoku and Ranma 1/2."Shiina is nothing if not humble about his work here.
>>288666979Thanks for including this goofy sea-monster, Shiina so I had space to post the blog post translation:"Anyway, thanks to the enthusiasm of those involved, the anime Yashahime: Princess Half-Demon was born, and thanks to it, we fans were able to miraculously meet Inuyasha, Sesshomaru, and the others again. While I am grateful for that, I did the best I could to turn it into a manga, and at this point, I probably couldn't do more than this or do it in any other way. So, all I can do now is pray that as many Inuyasha and Yashahime: Princess Half-Demon fans as possible will enjoy this manga. The 10 volumes of the book are easy to read, so please buy them. The final volume, volume 10, will be released around August.And so, the comicalization of Yashahime: Princess Half-Demon, which I have been writing for nearly four years, is now complete. While I was writing, I always felt like the characters were family to me. It was a dreamlike pleasure to be able to spend this time with the characters and world of my beloved Rumiko Takahashi-sensei's work.Thank you to Rumiko Takahashi-sensei and everyone involved, and to all the Rumic fans, for staying with me until the end! I hope to see you again somewhere, with another manga."
>>288666998Go for it!
>>288667003We got time for a gag.
>>288667010Our heroes.
>>288667017End of chapter, end of volume. Thanks for reading! I feel Shiina did pretty good. This volume wasn't my favorite, but it was fun to see everyone even if it was a bit cheesy. You can tell he loves Inuyasha as a series and the Yashahime manga was him writing as a fan. I understand that doesn't work for everyone, but it worked for me ultimately. I am happy that I ended up storytiming this manga. Feel free to use the thread to discuss anything Yashahime (or Inuyasha) related. I have some stuff I'll posting here and there to bump the thread.That's all I got. Don't expect a new thread from this trip next week. Or for a while.
>>288666000Here is the cover of Shonen Sunday S where this chapter debuted. Little Towa. >>288667043Oh, END OF SERIES. Can't believe I forgot to say that. End of chapter, end of volume, end of series. Oh well.
>>288667043>better ending than Inuyasha>only drawback was Sesshomaru wank>Mogged Sumisawa to hell and back>Mogged even Rumiko to some extent>Did it all while respecting the original's coreI fucking kneel, who is going to get mogged next by Shiina? Only real weakness of this manga was being only 10 volume and not having more of it.Solid 9/10.>That's all I got. Don't expect a new thread from this trip next week. Or for a while.RIP OP; you finished the job. Go on to the wheel, follow the light.
>>288667073>Oh, END OF SERIES. Can't believe I forgot to say that. End of chapter, end of volume, end of series. Oh well.One fucking job... now you have to start all over again. Maybe Mao ends by then, maybe.
>>288667043Thanks OP for all the threads, it's been a blast
>>288666824Oh that one person is going to be SEETHING this chapter
>>288666908>Just when the boys are making moves on his daughters he shows upI see you, Sesshy.>>288666930>That slight, subtle little smileI SEE YOU>>288666941>>288666953>She goes in for a kissPeak. I am satisfied.
I wouldn’t mind a Yashahime one shot, someday.
>>288663885Looks a bit TOO big to be a comet.
>>288664034Setsuna is a good sister.
>>288666787This page right here might just be the single biggest piece of character development Sesshy displays. He doesn’t rise to Inuyasha’s provocation or even match his energy; he merely acknowledges Inuyasha has recovered and moves on. He’s 100% past any bad blood he formerly had with his younger brother, and it’s so subtle too, I love it.>>288666841Agreed. Sesshy is my favorite character but I don’t want blind hero worship or anything. I really appreciate Inuyasha for calling him out on what was…probably pretty close to accurate. Sesshy does tend to have tunnel vision once he sets his mind to something, after all.
>>288667448Like a special chapter by Shiina with overseas adventures?
>>288667043Been here since UY OP, it's been quite a ride.
>>288665266>>288665349Ginkotsu was always a weird one because we see Inuyasha dodging lightning as early as volume…2, I think? And it’s not even an outlier either since lightning attacks reappear multiple times in the setting. So clearly Renkotsu’s cannons are firing something out of the ordinary for them to be a threat.

>>288668905Iirc Shiina said in a tweet or something that he has his own ideas on what leads to Yōkai disappearing from the world in modern times, so if it ever gets continued I think it might explore that.
>>288665220>Man, he almost went full fanfiction there.

>>288664054Chill out, Mei. It's just a suit.
>>288667043Thanks for posting OP! I’m glad to see you enjoyed the manga.
>>288664084>>288664095People can't see the eldritch demon comet, but they can certainly feel its effects. What is or is not censored by the apparent mystical perception filter seems a bit inconsistent.
>>288664330Basically, it's Amaterasu's discarded celestial skin flake to use an unflattering comparison.
>>288665112>Tenseiken does some quantum physics bullshit and locks the Comet in a paradox>>288665323>Which leads to them being able to kill it in all timelines simultaneouslyYeah okay I understand why their Tenseiken technique was enough to power the Windmill here >>288532794 now, that technique is busted.

>>288665000I'm willing to set aside my suspension of disbelief on 15th century Japan having armoured cannon, but the barrel rifling is too much
>>288672722Pretty sure that ship sailed in the Band of Seven Arc, my guy.
>>288666733Rin = cuteI'm also reminded how earlier Towards remarked on how young she is. considering she was sealed away when Setsuna and Towards were maybe 4 years old, she's probably barely 22 biologically. meanwhile the girls are 15 or 16. she basically is more like a big sister to them at this point
>>288672356>>288672367These might have been my posts.
>>288672796I stand by my statement.
>>288671894As he should.
>>288673014A quick google search seems to indicate muskets and firearms first came to Japan in the 1540's. Picrel establishes Yashahime seems to take place in 1560. I don't think it's very farfetched for the Demon Slayers to have them.>>288666880I do find it a little silly that Kagome is worried the girls will be gone for like 40 years, though.
>>288673186I said rifling. I know muskets and smoothbore cannons were around, rifling wasn't. rifling is the grooves cut into the barrel to force the bullet to spin, making it more accurate. rifling wasn't really viable until the industrial revolution because you need precise machining tools to create it. having rifling is on the level of having gas streetlamps in terms of technological advancement.
>>288672916no I think they were mine

>>288673209Ehhh, something something, Renkotsu is probably to blame, something something. Fair enough on your part, though.

>>288666558Here is the cover of Shonen Sunday S where this chapter debuted. Bigger Yashahime bubble this time, which makes sense. Of course, Shonen Sunday S continues to have big Detective Conan spinoff covers. At least, I assume they're spinoffs. >>288667117>>288668983>>288669523>>288669946Thanks guys!

Okay I’m up and ready, prepare yourselves because this commentary is gonna be a doozy since it’s the final volume, reason why I was saving it till today during the afternoon when I’d be all well rested:First things first…>>288664034>Towa panty shotRumiko would never! In fact she specifically requested the Sunrise anime team never to give Kagome any panty shots since she was only 15 and Towa is even younger… This isn’t respecting Rumiko’s vision at all Shiina, though I guess I shouldn’t be surprised since he seems to be a Sessrincel.>>288664696>Sango is pregnant againThis, Moroha, and Shiori becoming a pirate ship captain are the only things I’ll accept as canon from Yashahime. Good on Shiina for letting Miroku impregnate Sango again and give us that Mirsan baseball team family we were all expecting.>>288664724>”Sure we may be half-baked half demons”Moroha isn’t a half-demon though, why are you intentionally leaving her out? Who’s saying this Towa or Setsuna? It’s not really clear.>>288664790>Koga being allowed to participate in the final boss battle when Rumiko wouldn’t let him be there for the final Naraku showdownOkay this was better than what Rumiko did, I’ll admit that.>>288664823>Is this out of character?Hmm, hard to say… I don’t think it’s OOC for Sessmom to participate and help her son and granddaughters and maybe she’d complain a little/act exasperated but I don’t know if she’d act THAT haughty and self-important. It could be just a translation issue on Viz’s part too, Raws anon can you please provide the raws for this page?
>>288665000>>288665000>Miroku: “Where did you get THAT thing?”This on the other hand feels OOC, OOC count number 16, 17? Why is Miroku acting all surprised and exasperated at the wartank when he’s supposed to be the most technologically-savvy and ahead of the Feudal born characters due to being the brains/scholar of the group? I mean he was able to figure out how to work and ride Kagome’s bicycle right when they first met before he knew anything about it, and I think he was also the one filling in every one else in the gang regarding the Band of Seven’s more “modern” European weaponry and the like if I recall? In fact this feels more like a plan HE would come up with and Sango would be surprised and exasperated about rather than the other way around…>>288665112>Random Goddess Ameterasu that was never relevant or even once mentioned in Inuyasha loreWouldn’t it have been more appropriate to use Midoriko here?>>288665176>Rin with a gunI don’t know whether to laugh or to cry, I have so many questions… Where did they even get that gun to begin with? Portuguese colonization never touched Kaede’s village as far as I’m aware since it’s in the middle of bum-fuck nowhere. Is this just another remnant of the Band of 7’s weaponry that the Inugang just happened to save and brought back for safekeeping off-screen? And how would Rin who’s never had a day of training or battling in her entire life and is the dumbest and weakest character in the entire Inuyasha canon BY FAR be able to just instinctively know how to use it on the first try?On the one hand I guess I should give Shiina credit for at least ATTEMPTING to make Rin somewhat useful instead of regulating her to the eternal damsel she was back in Inuyasha Proper, but this still feels a bit too ridiculous, even for Yashahime.
>>288679757This isn't a traditional panty shot and we've seen Kagome naked. He presumably got it approved. I assume her issue with anime panty shots is the cliche rather than anything. Plus, I think Towa is the same age as Kagome was back then.
>>288679967I don't think he's surprised by its existence, just that he wasn't aware it was there up to this point. And how Sango for her hands on it. And Amaterasu was in the initial description of the Grim Comet from many volumes ago.
>>288665220>>288665220>or even have them interact with their parents from the past and play at Back to the Future.It would just further highlight how much of a weird, grooming ship Sessrin is. I mean can you imagine the twins meeting their parents back in the OG and seeing their father play daddy and practically raise their literal CHILD mom? I mean Towa and Setsuna already remarked how weird it is that their mom is so young and that she doesn’t even act like a proper adult woman would, this would just further cement it.Also imagine Towa in particular with her modern sensibilities due to being raised in our era seeing that shit play out right in front of her eyes on what her parents relationship was REALLY like, I could honest to god see her trying to get her dad arrested, at the bare minimum she’d be creeped the fuck out and not want anything to do with Sesshomaru after that. Seeing that she was basically a product of grooming and pedophilia I could definitely see this influencing her decision and she probably wouldn’t even want to reunite with her parents anymore and would just stay in the modern era with the Higurashis. Hell even Setsuna would probably be weirded out and not want anything to do with her parents after seeing their past considering this was considered weirdo behavior even during the Feudal Era in the Rumicverse (recall the Inugang’s reaction to Miroku’s attempted grooming of an 11 year old Koharu, and Rin was even YOUNGER than that).>tfw you find out your father’s a groomer and raised your motherI almost would have liked to see this happen just to see the twins reaction, I mean it’s not like Shiina has been exactly subtle throwing low-key shade on just how weird Sessrin is.>>288665220>Man, he almost went full fanfiction there.>Implying Yashahime isn’t already fanfiction
>>288680331>I could honest to god see her trying to get her dad arrested, at the bare minimum she’d be creeped the fuck out and not want anything to do with Sesshomaru after thatShiina and Sumisawa are cucks who can't even try to add layers into their heroines. Making them into flashy-furry magical girls is the maximum you can get from them (and the blind Brianmaru worship)
>>288665313>>288665313>”You did it too Moroha!”Well at least they’re FINALLY giving Moroha her due credit, if this were the anime Sumisawa would’ve just put in a joke here at Moroha’s expense.>>288665656>For all Kirinmaru x Sesshomaru fansWhat did Shiina mean by this? Shiina, you do realize the “x” between characters is usually meant to refer to a ship don’t you?Actually I’ve really been coming to like the SessKirin ship even despite Kirinmaru being a non-canon OC character thanks to this one artist on Pixiv, hey if Sesshomaru can’t have Toga then why not his father’s best friend? They even both have daughters (I’m referring to Rin here as Sesshomaru’s daughter since the twins aren’t canon) so they would be two single fathers getting together playing house and it would be a perfect match! Shiina does seem a little too keen in always having Kirinmaru get up so close and personal to Sesshomaru’s face and even having him call him terms of endearment like “my boy.”Yeah, I think I ship this now…Think I’ll just post SessKirin (or what rare SessToga fanart I could find) for the remainder of this commentary just to trigger the Sessrincels and “This Sesshomaru is straight” crowd.>>288665664>I am stronger than my father”Sesshomaru admitting himself that he’s a Gary-Stu? Also there’s his obsession with Toga again kek.>>288665673>Kirinmaru is always getting so close up in Sesshomaru’s faceExhibit A.
>>288665656>Jaken feeling Sesshomaru’s punch from afarOkay that was funny.>>288665679>>288665856>”I’m not the one Sesshomaru has been chasing”>cue Toga silhouette >”Did you only dream of surpassing your father? Set your sights higher. The Great Dog-Demon is always with you. He and his son are as one. Through you, his presence will reverberate for eternity.”SESSHOMARU BEING A GAY FATHERCON CANON!C A N O NANON!I’m so relieved to see the fan-translations from these other two SessToga pages I kept posting ended up being accurate at least, even if that first one wasn’t. (I’m talking of course about the panel with the Sesshomaru & Toga flashback where the fan-translation had Sesshomaru think to himself that only Toga is worthy of his regard whereas the actual actual translation was supposed to be Sesshomaru thinking he can only trust himself).Also thank you for Kirinmaru for telling us what the audience already knows in that all Sesshomaru ever wanted was anything in relation to his father and that he’s always been obsessed with him. Sessrincels and the Sess straightfags will deny it of course, but hey even you all say that Yashahime MUST be canon since Rumiko approves of it and supervised Shiina’s every panel, so clearly she must have approved of these two pages too RIGHHHHT? :)Also that —>set your sights higherReferring to yourself there Kirinmaru?
>>288665856>Kirinmaru was also one of the family members that Sesshomaru wanted to save" and "He was someone he admired as a boy and compared him to his late father."SESSKIRIN ALSO CANON! SESSRIN A SHIT, A. SHIT!!!Also:>Rumiko approved of Shiina practically telling the audience that Sesshomaru’s always been obsessed with his father>Also approved of him saying that Sesshomaru also cares about KirinmariBut I thought according to you Sessrincels Rin was the first person Sesshomaru ever gave a fuck about and he didn’t care about any other people prior to her? ^.) That she was the one who “taught him how to love?” Where is your God now?>It also has more of an appeal as a sequel to the anime original masterpiece "Swords of an Honorable Ruler," Shiina you can’t just incorporate that movie into your own timeline when it contradicts what Yashahime has established about hanyou aging (i.e. they age at the same rate as full humans judging by the Sessrin twins and Shiori). Inuyasha can’t be 200 years old chronologically like that movie claims when you have Towa and Setsuna being 14 physically and mentally as well as chronologically.>>288665881>Sesshomaru getting all emotional after Kirinmaru says he’s one with his father>That look in his eyes*fujo squeal* KYAHHH! <3 This ALMOST makes up for that fact that the Sesshomaru & Toga flashback page was mistranslated and got my hopes up, almost.>I also think that's when he is named.No, you’re mistaken Storytimer. Toga is never named in the movie, that’s just the name the fandom decided to collectively give him besides the title Inutaisho.
>>288681331I mean, we never denied he was obsessed. Just we don't do the hop you do to wants to fuck him. But I'm glad you're happy.
>>288681798"In the original script of the third Inuyasha movie, "Swords of an Honorable Ruler", Inuyasha's mother was given the name "Izayoi" and his father was given the name "Touga-ou". Neither of these characters were ever named in the manga. The name even made it into some early promotional material such as the preliminary movie soundtrack booklet and the first trailer."Ah, so it came from the script. I can't imagine it was just a fan creation.
>>288663954Well, we now know how Rumiko got inspiration for UY and now what happened to the MI.
>>288664013>I assumed they were just making a joke since there hasn't been any more volumes of MAO released (pretty much). I'm done! I got nothing left to dump until MAO's completedJUST. Requesting tl;dr what happened in MAO since the last volume, pls. OP is stuck in an endless loop

>>288665944>>288665944>Do my daughters try to follow me as I pursued my father?I should hope not considering the feelings you had towards your father were certainly NOT familial. Gay incest is okay since you can’t inbreed so it practically doesn’t even count as incest, but straight incest is absolutely disgusting and is as much of an abomination as pedoshit.Also another shot of Sesshomaru admitting he was obsessed with and trying to pursue his father, thank you Shiina!>>288666016>That lipstickIs that a tranny?>>288666056>They only hit on and think the twins are hot and not Moroha when she’s a cutie-pieMore low-key Sesshomaru wank and Moroha bashing, was this particular scene Sumisawa’s input?>>288666094>You mean to tell me Kirinmaru and the great dog demon fought for decades and neither won, but Sesshomaru killed him in one blow?That’s exactly why I say he’s a Gary-Stu.>>288666180>Moroha preferring the modern era but knowing she’d miss her family too much to stayThis would’ve made a great plot for a reverse Inuyasha, Yashahime should’ve been about this.>”I always tell you not to eat like a dog.”Ironic coming from you Setsuna considering you’re technically more dog than even Moroha. Also can someone please explain why Moroha acts more like a dog than the twins when she’s only a quarter but they’re half?>>288666237>Yet another reference to child RinI know this was just supposed to be a flashback to when they first met but it makes it really weird in perspective considering he’s paralleling them with InuKag here and both first meets are being framed as romantic.>>288666261>Furinkan notes that: "The girls are shown catching the pool demon from Urusei Yatsura." More proof UY is a low-key sequel to Inuyasha, also Ataru is probably Miroku and Sango’s descendant.
>>288682732>Also can someone please explain why Moroha acts more like a dog than the twins when she’s only a quarter but they’re half?Because their dynamic is intended to be "Sesshomaru (Setsuna) and Inuyasha (Moroha) if they actually grew up together and relied on each other." Setsuna is the straight man that corrects Moroha's gremlin antics.I believe one of Shiina's earlier blogs explains that explicitly.
>>288665769>>288665794>>288665804>>288665856>>288665892This was a great moment all around. Another one to add to the brutal mogging against the anime.
>>288680863>Actually I’ve really been coming to like the SessKirin ship even despite Kirinmaru being a non-canon OC character thanks to this one artist on PixivSorry Fujoschizo but that same artist draws Kirinmaru as having known Sess since he was a child. You know, the same thing you take issue with SessRin on.
>>288666277>>288666277>Moroha getting all excited over the hot-pot just like Kagome did back in volume 1 or 2 when she returned back home from the Feudal Era that first timeCute!>>288666304>Moroha getting to wear her mother’s school uniformKINO! It’s a crime we didn’t get fanservice like this in the anime, Sumisawa couldn’t be bothered.>>288666321>I'll be honest, I realize I don't know what Riku is holding. A sword?A rapier for a high school fencing club most likely.>Riku: “I have the memories of the so-called “Mr. Kirin,” so I can aid you in your studies.”Towa: “That feels kinda wrong!”Why does Shiina keep low-key calling out the pedo shit even while he ships it?>>288666383>Kagome writes to Towa but not her own daughter MorohaOkay the Sesshomaru wank is getting kind of out of hand here…>>288666404>second was the point blank Wind Scar that led to him meeting RinNow that we’re on the subject I’d actually like to correct an error I made a couple of volumes ago. I initially said how it was weird that Towa attributed her parents meeting to Kagome and thanked her for that because she had nothing to do with Inuyasha inheriting the Tetsusaiga and Sesshomaru would’ve always come after him for that anyways, then I remembered that Inuyasha was sealed and Kagome was the only one who could wake him up and release him, so yeah I guess it was ultimately thanks to Kagome Sesshomaru and Rin met. Even if Sesshomaru came for the Black Pearl in his eye while he was sealed to the Tree I doubt that would’ve woken Inuyasha up, or even if it did nobody else but Kagome would’ve been able to release Inuyasha because she was Kikyo’s reincarnation. So yeah, Inuyasha would’ve never been able to claim his birthright and beat Sesshomaru’s ass with it sending him flying near the village Rin was from without Kagome, that was a mistake on my part.

>>288683224I'll give you props for coming with some cute art prepared this week.

>>288667043>>288667093The only weakness are the grim comet final showdown but because Shiina is very bad at these final boss encounters. Also... I feel Miroku and Sango deserved more time in the manga.
>>288666094>You mean to tell me Kirinmaru and the great dog demon fought for decades and neither won, but Sesshomaru killed him in one blow?Sesshoumaru-Sama...I kneel.........
>>288666454>Moroha: “Dad! Mom!”RAWs Guy can you please provide the Raw for this page too? Somehow I get the feeling Viz didn’t translate Moroha’s dialogue here that really showcases her personality like they were supposed to… Doesn’t she call her parents really casually/rudely to mimic Inuyasha’s speech? Shouldn’t it be something like “Pops/Old Man” and “Ma” in translation? Like is it “Oyaji” and “Ofukuro” in the original?>Towa and Setsuna live in Sota's apartment, Moroha and Riku live in the Higurashi householdI thought Sota and his family lived at the Higurashi shrine themselves?>>288666479>>288666484>she brought the whole future with her back to the pastLike mother like daughter, kek.>>288666479>In addition, I also constructed a logic that "due to the scheme of the Tree of Ages, the only way for Akuru to get the windmill back was to retrieve the Yashahime from the future," and in fact this is written in Kagome's letter to Towa... But why did you have Kagome write that to Towa instead of her own damn daughter? Nevertheless I will concede that this IS a better explanation for the time traveling than what Sumisawa’s shit anime came up with, thanks for at least trying and putting effort in that department Shiina.>As a result, the scene where Sesshomaru re-enacts the last scene from Inuyasha turned out quite well.Ah, so that’s what it was meant to callback to. Seems a little weird to have the Sessrin family call back and parallel an InuKag scene… At least it’s less cringe than Sumisawa stealing Moroha’s family and giving them to Towa, I’ll say that much.>"If you believe and love with all your heart, the world of fairy tales will welcome you," and Sesshomaru embodies this by coming to welcome you...isn't this the dream of every Inuyasha fan?Not every Inuyasha fan is a Sesshomaru simp the way you and Sumisawa are Shiina.
>>288666489>"Moroha's luggage was originally going to be the backpack Kagome used to carry. But it was more interesting to make it huge so it's easy to see, and I also wanted to give Kagome a lot of supplies before we say goodbye, so that's how it is.I know Rumiko didn’t have Kagome carry a backpack back in the OG ending because it would’ve ruined the emotional momentum of Kagome making the most important decision of her life right then and there jumping in while never looking back, but it always did seem kinda weird that Kagome didn’t first pack some modern essentials to take along considering she knew this would be her last chance and she’d be stuck in the Feudal Era permanently so why not take practically everything she could grab? It’s nice knowing Moroha was able to do this for her and bring stuff back that she couldn’t, that was a nice touch Shiina.>>288666498>Sesshomaru feeling a special kinship with Riku Probably because he reminds him of Kagura. (and is one of his crushes incarnation)>>288666533>"I was worried about the last page, wondering if it would be better to end with Sesshomaru flying off into the sky. However, I chose to end it from the perspective of the Higurashi family, who were left behind.Thank you Shiina for resisting another chance to Sesshomaru wank, if it were Sumisawa he would’ve probably ended the chapter right there.>>288666558>Moroha with blue eyesBoth Yashahime versions have Moroha with Kagome’s eyes but Rumiko herself draws her with Inuyasha’s golden eye color, why do they contradict her like that on this one point regarding Moroha’s design?
>>288666726And I forgot to mention it but since it’s the end I’d like to say that I’m also not a fan of the way Shiina has Kagome wear her hair the way Kikyo did. It honestly feels OOC and I would hold this as an OOC point against her here (so what are up to now? OOC count 18?) Kikyo is such a sore point for Kagome, especially the way they’re always being compared, and Kagome being reduced to just “Kikyo’s reincarnation” and her replacement is the thing she’s most touchy about so it feels almost kind of disrespectful the way Shiina just has her copy Kikyo’s hairstyle like this. It also contradicts the actual canon since Rumiko also depicts Miko Kagome as wearing her regular hairstyle, how did this manage to get her approval? Even Sumisawa had the good sense to have her wear her hair as a Miko the way she always had, on this point I have to say that I definitely prefer the anime of Yashahime over the manga. So in terms of Yashahime anime vs manga:>Prefer in the anime- Kagome’s hairstyle- Sesshomaru is ever so slightly LESS OOC and there’s no actual Sessrin shipping moments>Prefer in the manga- Everything else>>288666743>That Setsuna/Rin moment…Is Shiina implying Setsuna takes after her father in more ways than one and has a crush on her same-sex parent?>Myoga:”As Demon Hunters you’ve learned cunning and skill. …Unlike old Lord Inuyasha who flings himself into battle willy-nilly.”>Shippo: “Don’t talk like that.”OOC count number 19! Can we make it to 20 before the manga ends? Shippo would never miss a chance to gang up on and berate Inuyasha rather than defend him, though I don’t know the translation seems a little weird… Can I request the raws for this page too RAWS Anon?>Pic-related is the end of this short comic of Sesshomaru only being able to think of his father even as his mom dolls up Rin for him in a callback to how she did him for TogaWill always be more IC than Yashahime, no matter the version.
>>288684322>I’m also not a fan of the way Shiina has Kagome wear her hair the way Kikyo did. It honestly feels OOC and I would hold this as an OOC point against her here (so what are up to now? OOC count 18?)Speedreader.
>>288684407>SpeedreaderThat was before she even met Kikyo and didn’t have a complex over being her reincarnation yet since she wasn’t even invested in either Inuyasha or the Feudal Era yet, but nice try. Looks like you’re the speedreader.
>>288684934>"Kagome wearing her hair like that is OOC!">Gets shown she literally styled it that way in the og manga before ever even meeting Kikyo>"Th-that doesn't count!!!!"God, you're pathetic.
>>288684971>"Kagome wearing her hair like that is OOC!">Gets shown she literally styled it that way in the og manga before ever even meeting Kikyo>"Th-that doesn't count!!!!"Yeah because that was before she knew Kikyo and it wasn’t a personal sore spot for her yet so it wasn’t OOC. Her wearing her like that AFTER meeting Kikyo is what’s OOC.
>>288685404>more delusional copiumAnti's can't ever just accept an L and admit they did a bad take. Pretty typical lol
>>288683178>>288683706Lmao.
>>288679967>Wouldn’t it have been more appropriate to use Midoriko here?No, because if you actually read the damn Manga you're trying (and failing) to criticize you'd know that 1) the Grim Comet was stated to be a bunrei of Amaterasu multiple volumes ago and 2) Midoriko is a human priestess whose biggest showing was fighting Magatsuhi's original composite yokai form and dying to take it down with her. She's absolutely not relevant against a threat where, if it wins, the entire multiverse ceases to be. She's also super fucking dead - moreso than Rion and bringing her back would be the exact sort of pointless fanservice you claim to hate.
>>288685962Notice how they refuse to acknowledge it too.>>288686010Fanservice is only bad when it's to characters they don't like, according to them.
Continuing with my liveblog commentary, took a bit of a break to eat there.>>288666756>”He’s so petty! His immaturity beggars relief!”Your father is unironically more immature and petty than Inuyasha is Setsuna.>Moroha fawning over and teasing her dad just like Kagome wouldOkay, that’s cute. >>288666756>Inuyasha has been a bit too cool in Yashahime so far.Really? I feel he’s been the same as ever, also it’s only natural he’d mature considering how many years it’s been and the fact that he’s now a father, it’d be sillier if he was still the same childish tsundere. In fact, I quite prefer how Shiina has depicted Inuyasha compared to Sumisawa who always overly flanderizes Inuyasha’s tsunness and impulsivity, the way he depicted Inuyasha not even caring about his mother’s rouge and still trying to play up the whole “tough guy” attitude in the anime was particularly egregious. Pretty much the only time when I thought Inuyasha was portrayed well in the Yashahime anime was how he was as a father to Moroha but that’s pretty much it.>>288666787>”Greetings, Lord Sesshomaru.”Rin is that how you greet your husband? You’re still treating him like he’s your Hogosha. And Sesshomaru you’re honestly not even any better, the way you just call out Rin’s name like that in the exact same way as you do the twins as if she’s just part of the crowd of children who need to lineup and stand at attention when in your presence is still treating her as if she’s one of your daughters instead of your wife.>>288666791>Paw prints on the suitcases A nice touch but doesn’t seem like something Sesshomaru would pick out, can we assume Jaken is responsible for this?Also I managed to find one other explicit SessToga fanart excerpt from a doujinshi on Pixiv, spoiler because it’s NSFW. Can’t believe how little explicit ship art there is of these two considering it’s the only canon Sesshomaru fujo ship.
>>288686364>"also it’s only natural he’d mature considering how many years it’s been">complains when the other dog boy shows character growth and maturity and calls it OOC and/or gary stu panderingThe hypocrisy continues.
>>288666806>>288666816>Sesshomaru got a gift for Moroha as wellOOC count number 20, hey we managed to make it to 20 before the end just as I thought we would lol! Sesshomaru would never go out of his way for his niece like that, or really anyone that isn’t from his very small circle of people he cares about), but especially not for Inuyasha and his family. He may have learned to tolerate his brother and now has a SLIGHTLY better relationship with him, but he would never go so far as to buy gifts for his family and act like he actually cares. Learning to tolerate doesn’t mean that Sesshomaru’s willing to suddenly play at being one big happy family with Inuyasha Shiina.>>288666824>>>288667346>More cringe Sessrin fanfic slop>Oh that one person is going to be SEETHING this chapterWhy would I seethe over an OOC fan fiction? I know what’s really canon, it’s you Sessrincels that are seething over Rumiko’s Hogosha comment and Shiina’s own admittance that Yashahime is just a “what if” doujinshi.>>>288686364>continuing off from that doujinshi I just posted, seems like the artist also ships SessKirin and this doujin is looking to head into SessTogaKirin threesome territoryHoly based! This is the way it was meant to be, Sesshomaru in a gay sandwich.>>>288686355>Complains about me not responding I’m in the middle of my liveblog commentary faggot! I’ll get to you when I get to you, I’m trying to go in order here.
>>288666831>Kagome fangirling like that from a distance as if she honest to god ships SessrinOOC count number 21! Man not only have we made it to 20, we even managed to go a little bit over. Also I like how Shiina had to have one of the OG characters in that panel fawning over their “moment” as if to try to further validate the Sessrin ship to the audience because even he knew Sumisawa’s OC fanchildren gawking at their parents wouldn’t be enough lmao!>Towa: “Dad’s really something huh? He crossed space and time and fought for a thousand years to protect everything and everyone to the very end.”>Setsuna: “Indeed. Now he stands at the pinnacle of demonkind. I’m proud to be his daughter, but it’s quite a legacy to live up to.”Don’t stretch yourself over with all that Sesshomaru glaze Shiina, even this is a bit overkill for the wanking considering Sess’s daughters barely even know him and it would probably be OOC for even themselves to say something like that.>>288666841>”I’m telling you Sesshomaru isn’t all that great”Inuyasha the only one speaking sense in this entire wankfest.>Moroha: “You jealous dad? YEOW!”Wasn’t there some anon complaining in these threads always harping on this one panel that Inuyasha is hitting Moroha and how it’s proof that Inu is an abusive dad? probably just some jealous Sessfag and Sumisawa cocksucker Looks more like he’s just holding her head down, still he’s a bit rougher with Moroha here then I would’ve liked, maybe I spoke to soon about praising Shiina’s portrayal and how he made Inuyasha mature…“You’re saying that with the fate of the universe hanging in the balance he acted without thinking simply because he’s a sore loser?”That would be correct Setsuna.>>288686645>Not only does this artist ship SessToga & SessKirin, they even made a short SessKirin comic where they’re dads to RinHow can one artist possibly be so incredibly based?

>>288666845Okay I’m back, let’s continue where I left off and finish this up.>>288666845>>288666853>InuKag coming in clutch to show up Sessrin on what a REAL canon couple looks likeSessrin = Utterly mogged>>288666871>The new gen gang are going to become adventure exploring demon hunting pirates with ShioriOkay this was a nice touch on the part of Shiina.>>288666886>Moroha’s scrapped brother mentionedShame Sumisawa pressured Rumiko to cut him, probably because he was afraid the InuKag siblings’ bond would upstage his own Donutsteel OCs, but I’m glad Shiina was at least able to allude to him being born someday. Now with Yashahime being finished I hope Rumiko is able to release his design back into the public again and give him an official name. It’d be cute if he were the inverse of Moroha in personality, as in they both take different traits of parts of their parents personality. Whereas Moroha is cheerful and friendly/open like their mother, she also has their father’s impulsivity and hyperactivity. Meanwhile her brother is considerably calmer and more sensible like Kagome while having Inuyasha’s more prickly/grumpy and surly attitude. I can just imagine their dynamic being the boy getting constantly exasperated by his rowdy sister and trying to reign her in while Moroha tries to get him to loosen up and, this is the sort of Yashahime we deserved and what the fans wanted, a sequel focusing on the InuKag and Mirsan families, not a Sessrin fanfic. Yashahime could’ve been such an easy success if only it didn’t decide to pander to thus pedos and self-inserters, thus alienating much of the mainstream Inuyasha audience who tuned out as soon as it was revealed who the mother of Sesshomaru’s twins was.Also here, take this excerpt from another SessKirin doujinshi where Sesshomaru sleeps with Kirinmaru while pretending he’s Toga and calls out for his father in the middle of sex with him as compensation for the delay.
>>288666895>>288666908>Towa and Setsuna both end up with expies of their parents love interests, Kagura and Kohaku respectivelyPoettry, I see what you did there Shiina/Sumisawa…>>288666919>>288666930>Meanwhile Shiina attempts to throw the Sessrincels a bone and give them a romantic moment yet completely ruins it by reminding the audience once again that Rin’s still a itty-bitty widdle baby whose own daughters are more like a mother to her than she is to them>Even Hisui thinks this family is weird and throws them shadeEVERY. SINGLE. TIME. You can’t make this shit up, lmaoo! Shiina’s either deliberately trolling the Sessrincels at this point or it’s a lolicon fetish on his part and he secretly enjoys Rin is like a child, there’s no other explanation for this sort of wink-wink nodding to the audience reminding them at every turn with:>“hey remember what a CHILD Rin used to be?” >”Well she’s still that same CHILD who gets mothered by her own daughters rather than the other way around like it usually is”>>288666941…Is that Rin leaning in for a kiss and blushing? OOC count number 22, not even just for the OG manga & anime, but even Yashahime’s own canon since Shiina pretty much established that Rin’s a gold digger and only married Sesshomaru for his money.>”Towa and Setsuna you two are the fruit of our joy. Free yourselves to sail into tomorrow and eternity.”Who’s saying this, Sesshomaru or Rin? It better be Rin or else we’ve got ourselves up to OOC Count 23.Whatever, here’s some pages of Sesshomaru waxing to Kirinmaru about his real true love Toga to wash away that bad taste in my mouth, as per Google Translate:>”I... I can't seem to find the words when I'm in front of Father. When he looks at me, I feel like my heart is... pounding. I want him to look at me, yet... it feels so painful... I just don't know what to do...”
>>288690519>"Whatever, here’s some pages of Sesshomaru waxing to Kirinmaru">continues showing pages from a doujin where Kirinmaru quite literally grooms Sesshomaru>continues to call SessRin the grooming relationship when that has proven to not be the caseself awareness is an abstract concept to this creature lmao
>>288667043>And it ends exactly like the anime, with the wanking of Sesshomaru to the high heavensGeez, you couldn’t have the decency to at least throw Moroha in there for the final panel Shiina? Was this final scene mandated by Sumisawa or something?Annd that’s a wrap! I gotta admit it’s been fun on my end as well even despite my utter hatred for Yashahime’s concept, I enjoyed ripping into it and enjoying the few sparks of genuine good Shiina managed to eke out if nothing else.>Art: 9/10>Story: 5/10>New characters: 5/10 (This score would’ve been higher if some of them weren’t such obvious lazy derivatives of OG Inuyasha characters like Naraku and Kagura)>Pacing: 7/10Consistency: 2/10 (too many plot holes to name)Humor: 8/10Emotional Moments: 9/10>Final Total OOC Count of our OG cast: 21 or 22, depends on whether it was Rin or Sesshomaru speaking in that last panel there. (I’m honestly shocked it wasn’t higher, but I just attribute that to both Yashahime’s short length + the OG cast not getting to appear as much as the new one which spared them from even further character assasination)>Concept: - 000000000000/10>Overall enjoyment & fun factor: 8/10>Overall Final Score: 4.5/10As OOC Sessrin fanfics go it could’ve been worse, but it also could’ve been better. I give Shiina credit for at least making it somewhat tolerable compared to the trash anime, like if he was forced to write this concept he did the very best that he could with it, but it’s like putting lipstick on a pig, you can’t polish a turd. A shit concept is a shit concept. It’s hard to say if Shiina even ships Sessrin himself, since a lot of what he gave them seemed to be laced with subtle jabs and backhanded callouts over their history and how weird their relationship looks to outsiders, not to mention all the SessKirin and SessToga shipping hints that Sumisawa would never dare put in.
>>288690761Thanks for doing this Storytime anyways OP, I guess we’ll see you when we see you. I’ll spend the rest of this thread responding to replies since some have been so eagerly waiting it seems, for now I’ll leave you off with a continuation from this doujin I posted here >>288690519 showcasing the actual canon of Sesshomaru being a gay fathercon just as Rumiko intended.Kirinmaru translating Sesshomaru’s thoughts as per Google translate:>”It is because I have never truly cherished another person. It is not that I have never held anyone dear... It is simply that I have eyes for no one...but that man.”
>>2886897203/10 Bait, try harder.
>>288667093>only drawback was Sesshomaru wankAnd not the entire Sessrin concept in and of itself?>>288667436>She goes in for a kiss>PeakMore like OOC>>288667448>I wouldn’t mind a Yashahime one shot, somedayJust as long as it’s focused on Moroha and her would-be brother, you know the only actual canon characters people care about?>>288668702>This page right here might just be the single biggest piece of character development Sesshy displays. He doesn’t rise to Inuyasha’s provocation or even match his energy; he merely acknowledges Inuyasha has recovered and moves on. What do you mean? He pretty much behaves exactly the same towards Inuyasha as he always has right after adopting Rin. He only really deliberately goes after and tries to kill him those first few early volumes, once he meets Rin he mainly just ignore him unless he’s trying to test him or they’re being forced to work together or something.>Agreed. Sesshy is my favorite character but I don’t want blind hero worship or anything. I really appreciate Inuyasha for calling him out on what was…probably pretty close to accurate.At least you’re one of the normal Sessfags who doesn’t ride his dick and self-insert the way Sumisawa does, for that I commend you.>>288669193>Knocks up a human woman, remains absent until their half-breed children turn into teenagers>Interacts with them only for a short amount of time>LeavesYou forgot the worst part of it all: That human woman he knocked up just so happened to be the very CHILD he raised too. Also what is this “Brianmaru” in reference towards? I barely saw Family Guy so I don’t get it.
>>288672913>I'm also reminded how earlier Towards remarked on how young she is. considering she was sealed away when Setsuna and Towards were maybe 4 years old, she's probably barely 22 biologically. meanwhile the girls are 15 or 16. she basically is more like a big sister to them at this pointEven Shiina agrees with you and didn’t hesitate to call this out on MULTIPLE occasions, kek!>>288673427>Setsuna in Kagome’s school uniformShe needs to give that back to Moroha.>>288678959>Did Moroha lose the pony tail or is it just meYeah, she did. It’s probably like what anon >>288679003 here said, she’s just trying to emulate Kagome.>>288679969>This isn't a traditional panty shot and we've seen Kagome naked. He presumably got it approved. I assume her issue with anime panty shots is the cliche rather than anything. Plus, I think Towa is the same age as Kagome was back then.Towa is 14 while Kagome was 15, so she’s a year younger. If Rumiko approved then it’s probably because she doesn’t care since Towa and Setsuna technically aren’t her own characters and are Sumisawa’s creation, I bet she was extra protective over Moroha not flashing any panties though.>>288680765Shiina and Sumisawa are cucks who can't even try to add layers into their heroines. Making them into flashy-furry magical girls is the maximum you can get from them (and the blind Brianmaru worship)Eh to be fair we never got to see just HOW Shiina would write them in that scenario since he never got the chance to, though seeing as how he made Kagome totally OOC in fangirling over Sessrin something tells me he wouldn’t handle Towa and Setsuna any better upon finding out the true nature of their parents’ relationship.
>>288682014>>288682014>I mean, we never denied he was obsessed.Yes you do, you Sessrincels always get triggered af if Sesshomaru so much as even BREATHES in another person’s direction, remember the Onions Sauce incident where you all ganged up on Shiina because he dared to have the headcanon that Sesshomaru buys Kagome onions sauce? Don’t get me wrong I think that’s pretty OOC for Kagome to do too, but y’all were frothing at the mouth at the very implication that Sesshomaru could possibly care about anyone outside of Rin.Also it’s you Sessrincels who always kept saying Rin was the first and only person Sesshomaru ever cared about and that he didn’t know how to love before her (since if you’re not lolicon pedos then you’re all self-inserting AGP troons who need Rin to be Sesshomaru’s “special exception” or else it ruins the fantasy for you.)Pic-related Sesshomaru’s relationship chart written and drawn by a SessKirin shipper where even they admit that Toga is Sesshomaru’s first and greatest love.As per Google Translate:>Toga: A handsome, popular man. Playful. He holds the exclusive claim to Sesshomaru's eternal first love. Lucky guy.Toga will always be Sesshomaru’s number 1 and Rin will never be able to compete, cry about it!
>>288691773>remember the Onions Sauce incident where you all ganged up on Shiina because he dared to have the headcanon that Sesshomaru buys Kagome onions sauce?No because none of us live on reddit or x like you, faggot.
It would seem that my services are no longer needed.>>288667073Thanks for the Storytime OP. I had a blast. Hope I was able to help out a bit.It's been fun, lads.
Looking up Yashahime actually got me some people talking about the manga. I assumed that since all of the wikis and whatnot focus on the anime, there wouldn't be much of a scene for the manga but I'm glad I was wrong. Seems like pixiv fanart is mainly based on the anime though, but it is hard to tell. Also, quality fanart is obviously still hard to find.
>>288691773Can we please focus criticizing this mess of manga instead devolving into this discourse?
>>288691923You arrived just in time to witness the end of the manga's storytime. If you want to find the first thread, it's post 287361104 in desuarchive.>>288691934Both are one and the same for that one.
>>288682057>"In the original script of the third Inuyasha movie, "Swords of an Honorable Ruler", Inuyasha's mother was given the name "Izayoi" and his father was given the name "Touga-ou". Neither of these characters were ever named in the manga. The name even made it into some early promotional material such as the preliminary movie soundtrack booklet and the first trailer."I never read the script so that’s a cool detail. Hey Storytimer OP, I missed your Inuyasha Storytime, by any chance did you also manage to dump the Inuyasha extra miscellaneous material like the movies promotional material during it?>>288682600>No because he never does anything remotely close to that lolPer Rumiko’s Word of God Sesshomaru is Rin’s Hogosha, and Hogosha means foster parent, so he very much did raise Rin. Even without Rumiko’s confirmation you should’ve been able to figure that out for yourself considering Sesshomaru was telling Rin stuff like when to move and such and even asking her “if she behaved herself” whenever he’d return back.>>288682600>That was already discussed at length 4 threads ago, the conclusion seems to be they age at normal human speeds until they hit puberty and then their hanyo genetics slows them down exponentially.>>288683178>Sorry Fujoschizo but that same artist draws Kirinmaru as having known Sess since he was a child. You know, the same thing you take issue with SessRin on.…Annd why should I care when Kirinmaru knowing Sesshomaru since was a child was never depicted in either the Yashahime manga or anime and that’s just the artist’s own personal headcanon? I just disagree with their interpretation and choose to ignore all while only paying attention to the fanart they draw of Sesshomaru as an adult as he is in canon, simple as.
>288692051>zero self awareness and hypocrisy continuesAppreciate the thread bumps, but otherwise ignoring this creature is the best course of action.A reminder that picrel is this creature's genuine opinion.
>>288691979Hehe, I meant discussing it in other places, I don't use a trip when I'm just chatting.>>288692051Well, you can still find all the storytimes on desu, but I'll admit, the only extra manga I dumped was Since Then. I did post a bunch of Rumiko Takahashi interview excerpts and the wideban extras.https://desuarchive.org/_/search/subject/Inuyasha/username/RumicWorldStoryTime/type/op/order/asc/>>288688173>>288691896Thanks! And thanks for posting the raws when people needed them. Though there were some more requests if you have a moment.
>>288683308>I'll give you props for coming with some cute art prepared this week.Figured I should seeing as how it’s a special occasion being the last volume and all. I usually don’t bother because 1. I’m lazy, and 2.

Au contraire, I don’t know about other antis but I’m more than willing to admit when I’m wrong anon, see here >>288683224>>288686010>She's also super fucking dead - moreso than Rion and bringing her back would be the exact sort of pointless fanservice you claim to hate.No I wouldn’t mind in Midoriko’s case since it would’ve been the first time and she wasn’t constantly brought back from the dead over and over again like Kikyo was.What was annoying about Kikyo is that she kept being brought back even after having several fake-out deaths to the point where it just got tiring and started cheapening her character. Kikyo not being able to stay dead used to be a meme in the fandom, so bringing HER in particular back very much felt like pointless fanservice and beating a dead horse into the ground once again.>>288686355>Fanservice is only bad when it's to characters they don't like, according to them.I like Kikyo, just that she was brought back from the dead so many times that it began to be a joke.
>>288692145Whoops, I missed the requests. Fool be me.>>288679757Here's your request for this page: >>288664823ふん、また面倒事か。>Hmph, another nuisance.>伴もその子も無心ばかりしてきおる。>Both you and that child of yours do nothing but ask for handouts.>たまには何か貢げ、不孝者ども!>Bring ME a tribute for a change, you unfilial wretches!
>>288683821Your request for this page: >>288666454It does appear to just be "Tōchan! Kāchan! !">父ちゃん!母ちゃん!!>Dad! Mom!!It does have the affectionate '-chan' suffix so despite the words chosen being a little formal and very respectful, the -chan at the end means it's intended to be warm and affectionate.
I assume this is from the anime. No clue what is being depicted with the flour.
>>288686493>"also it’s only natural he’d mature considering how many years it’s been">complains when the other dog boy shows character growth and maturity and calls it OOC and/or gary stu pandering>The hypocrisy continues.It’s not hypocrisy if Shiina and Sumisawa just so happen to write Sesshomaru’s “development” in an OOC and Gary-Stu like way.>>288687280>You had enough time to respond out of order here >>288685404 (You) #I said I would TRY to respond in order, not that I would always be perfect about it.>>288687477>The only one posting ooc fanfiction in this thread is you>implying Sessrin isn’t the height of OOC fanfiction short of something like Sesshomaru fucking someone he barely knows like MirokuStay delusional Sessrincel.>>288689298>SessJakenI could’ve shipped this if Jaken had an actual human form and wasn’t just a literal goblin, as it stands now it’s just a meme/joke ship. Still more canon than Sessrin though lol>>288690667>continues showing pages from a doujin where Kirinmaru quite literally grooms SesshomaruBecause I just choose to ignore that part and headcanon Sesshomaru only meeting Kirinmaru once he was an adult.>continues to call SessRin the grooming relationship when that has proven to not be the caseExcept it has because it’s canon that Sesshomaru met Rin when she was a child and became her Hogosha and their past isn’t some ambiguous, up for interpretation thing the way SessKirin’s is.
Also I’d like to clear up the misconception some are under that I particularly despise Sesshomaru and Rin’s individual characters even outside the ship. I don’t hate them themselves, I hate the way Sumisawa and Shiina (but especially Sumisawa) write them. While they’re my least favorites they’re fine and tolerable the way Rumiko portrays them, but the way Sumisawa and Shiina tends to glorify and Gary-Stuify/Mary-Sueify them all at the expense of the rest of the cast just grates on my nerves. I guess I just hate what Yashahime turned them into and the fandom surrounding them because they have honest to god THE most insufferable shippers this side of the Naruto and Bleach fandoms. I’ve never met a more unhinged, delusional, and outright annoying fanbase the way I have Sessrins. The fact that they’re outright pedo apologists too all while their ship has as much flavorful chemistry as NaruHina or SasuSaku is just the icing on the cherry shit-flavored cake.>>288692335>ふん、また面倒事か。>Hmph, another nuisance.>伴もその子も無心ばかりしてきおる。>Both you and that child of yours do nothing but ask for handouts.>たまには何か貢げ、不孝者ども!>Bring ME a tribute for a change, you unfilial wretches!Yeah, I figured VIZ’s translation might be off. This sounds much more reasonable and fitting for Sessmom’s character, thanks anon!
>>288684322For your request on this page >>288666743 I assume you want the Shippo part. Seems you were right about the translation being a little off.>「雲影」の肋骨は妖力をこめると冷気を生み出しますが、凶暴で強力ゆえ無傷での入手は困難です。>The ribs of the Un'ei generate a freezing chill when infused with demonic power, but because the creature is so ferocious and formidable, obtaining them unscathed is no easy feat.>それをお見事。>And yet, you managed it brilliantly.>力任せだったあの犬夜叉さまが…ご立派に成長なさいましたなぁ。>That Lord Inuyasha—who used to rely solely on brute force—has truly grown into a magnificent figure.>Shippo: それはどうかな。("Has he, now?")So in the RAWs Myoga was actually trying to butter Inuyasha up and Shippo made a jab at him. The translator may have thought Myoga was praising the girls instead, but I see no language here for him referring to them, and he very explicitly says Inuyasha's name when talking about growth.Anything else?
>>288692660>力任せだったあの犬夜叉さまが…ご立派に成長なさいましたなぁ。>That Lord Inuyasha—who used to rely solely on brute force—has truly grown into a magnificent figure.>Shippo: それはどうかな。("Has he, now?")So in the RAWs Myoga was actually trying to butter Inuyasha up and Shippo made a jab at him. The translator may have thought Myoga was praising the girls instead, but I see no language here for him referring to them, and he very explicitly says Inuyasha's name when talking about growth. Anything else?No that’s all, thanks again RAWs anon! And it’s just as I suspected again… Man, how could VIZ so blatantly mess up on the translations of Myoga and Shippo’s lines here? They outright made Shippo sound OOC, I originally docked an OOC point against for this but now I’ll have to retract it since this was clearly just a translation error on VIZ’s part and Shiina actually had both Shippo and Myoga pretty IC here. Geez c’mon VIZ, get it together over there! What’s even the bloody fucking point of human translators like this when they always seem to mess up and a machine translation can translate better than they ever could. I am never trusting official English localizations/translations or even human translations in general ever again, I’ve been burned too many times to count.
The butterfly seemed like a good addition, though Kagome and Rin just rolling with it did make them seem a bit callous. And of course, it needed Sesshomaru's mom to be much more active as a participant than she really had been before. It certainly made Setsuna more interesting though, in a way that I can't imagine the anime did.
>>288691934>RegressionDon't be silly anon. They're demons, their dna is already magical, inbreeding won't be an issue at all! Probably.
>>288666886>Kagome is canonically the horndog of the relationshipFucking kek.I honestly can't blame her, I'd want either of those dog boys all over me too.
>>288693175Do you think Inuyasha would make a competition with Sesshomaru to see how would have the most kids of the latter had another with Rin?
>>288692605>Also I’d like to clear up the misconception some are under that I particularly despise Sesshomaru and Rin’s individual characters even outside the ship. I don’t hate them themselves, I hate the way Sumisawa and Shiina (but especially Sumisawa) write them. While they’re my least favorites they’re fine and tolerable the way Rumiko portrays themTwo threads ago you literally said in response to Sesshōmaru being given a cool moment that the only thing he is good for as a character is being angsty fujo defeatbait. That's nothing short of slanderous character assassination. You clearly hate the character and anything associated with him, and I honestly feel like you only dislike Rin due to her association with him.I dunno what crazy SessRin shippers you were in the trenches fighting against on Tumblr but the majority of people who just think they're cute don't care nearly as much as you seem to think. Shipping isn't that deep. Chill the fuck out, because you unironically make these threads unpleasant to be in no matter what characters someone happens to like.
>>288693796I saw a funny doujin on pixiv with that premise. I wonder if I can find it again, it was like 4 years ago.
ENOUGH about shipping.Who would you want to see your favorite character FIGHT?
>>288694327My favorite character is Totosai who was disappointingly absent in Yashahime. I guess an old man fight with Myoga would be pretty funny, if lopsided.
>>288691255
Have any of you guys looked into the fairy tales in question? I don't know how much Japanese you guys speak, but maybe you can give some insight in the feelings and tone Shiina was trying to capture.
>>288666581>Please look forward to Takashi Shiina-sensei's next work.This is his current work, Kurogane no Mabito. Sadly it's not translated yet.https://www.sunday-webry.com/episode/2551460909946689008
>>288695242Figures. Is it just GSM that has an official English translation? Besides Yashahime, I guess.
>>288686956>Wasn’t there some anon complaining in these threads always harping on this one panel that Inuyasha is hitting Moroha and how it’s proof that Inu is an abusive dad?That would be me. And yes, Shiina went ahead and made Inuyasha into a dad that would beat up his kid like we all feared. He’s being as rough with Moroha as he usually is with Shippo in that panel.
>>288696979>NUUU you can't roughhouse with children if you even so much as brush against them they'll be traumatised!!!!
>>288697346But before Yashahime’s release everyone was theorizing and afraid Inuyasha was gonna turn out to be an abusive dad who beats up his kids, don’t deny it I was there in those threads.

Where was this ever mentioned in either Inuyasha or Yashahime that demons age differently depending on species?It's never 𝘦𝘹𝘱𝘭𝘪𝘤𝘪𝘵𝘭𝘺 mentioned anywhere in the original series, but Zero in the Yashahime manga mentions several times that Daiyōkai like herself and the Great Dog Demon would live until the end of time. We have also never seen a Dog Daiyōkai that looks old, whereas the same cannot be said for the likes of Taigokumaru, despite them allegedly also being a Yōkai of the Dai-status.The implication does seem to be that some Yōkai clans have different aging mechanics than others. Not all Yōkai are created equal in this world.
>>288704716I'm not one of the powerscaling anons but the last few volumes kinda dipped the top tiers like Sesshōmaru into some universal-scale nonsense.Dunno if I'd say he styles on ALL of Bleach like that other anon because I know Bleach has no shortage of bullshit to throw at him, but he probably gives Byakuya a run for his money, and that's the guy who is most often compared to Sess anyway.
>>288704641Unicode, I got it sorted.
>>288704719>You missed it anon I already finished my commentary, scroll up some.kikongo!
>>288705421>Kikongo…What? I don’t get it.
>>288667043Thank you RumicOP/YashimeOP. I've been her since UY Volume 2. I'm really gonna miss you :( I'd be down for other series dumps from you, even if only at the once a week schedule. But of course it is up to you, I kinda just want you around. You were quite thorough so this must've been quite the ordeal. I quite liked this series and my liking grew as it went along. Stay fresh, bro.
>>288705994I think they’re mockingly saying your response was reminiscent to Big Bang Theory dialogue.>>288705421They don’t seem to be actively slandering anything right now. That’s why I’m being civil.>>288704840To add on to my comment here; in Volume 7, Zero flatout says she has an ‘endless life’ and would life for eternity, and seems to believe Toga would have as well. Here’s three pages of her outright spelling that out.So if some Daiyōkai have eternal youth and some Yōkai don’t, it stands to reason their Hanyō would have varying lifespans as well.
>>288707555>These beauties will stay youthful foreverDog Genes never fail, do they? Everyone with Dog Genes is guaranteed to be hot forever.>>288691574>She needs to give that back to Moroha.Moroha looks good in it too so you won’t hear complaints from me!
>>288708172Forever is probably a stretch for the Hanyō and ShiHanyō, but they will probably wind up outliving most non-special Yōkai, at the very least.
>>288704840>>288707555Considering the Dog Clan are descended from the literal god of time, it makes sense they'd have a pretty unique relation with aging compared to other Daiyokai and their kin. You could accuse Akuru of some flavor of nepotism or favoritism I suppose, but he can do whatever he wants since he's the right hand to fucking Amaterasu.
>>288707041Thank you! I appreciate the kind words. I will probably be back to redo UY at some point. Or maybe do a dedicated one-shots dump in some fashion or something. But yeah, I'm done for now.
I miss my beautiful Queen.
>>288709153We know Onigumo.
>>288694327Considering we’ve seen time and again that illusions just don’t seem to work on Inu Clan noses, what win con would Itachi even have in this fight?Even if we don’t take the stuff for Sess scaling to multiple timelines like Yashahime implies, he can still basically spam the equivalent of Biju Bombs with every swing of his sword. What’s Itachi even going to do without Genjutsu here?
>>288694327>Who would you want to see your favorite character FIGHT?I want to see a competition between Sasuke and Sesshomaru regarding who’s the worse husband and father.
>>288709718That's Sasuke by several orders of magnitude. Sessh has the worst resting bitch face known to man or demon, but it's very clear that he adores his wife and daughters and would go through hell for them. Sasuke seems emotionally checked out at best when it comes to his family.
>>288709718Sessh may be aloof and might’ve done the whole ‘Sengoku Era Samurai’ thing where he expected maids/servants to do most of the childrearing but the guy also spent a millennia in a time loop stubbornly fighting to protect his daughters and wife. And judging by his dialogue when Towa questioned him about it, he’d do it again without a second thought.Sasuke meanwhile didn’t even recognize his daughter and would’ve killed her if she didn’t scream ‘Dad’ when he was moving to cut her head off. Sasuke’s the worse parent and it isn’t close.
>>288709693Come to think of it, Itachi’s Toska Blade and Yata Mirror are both directly stayed to be Spiritual equipment, which is why the former can bypass durability in Naruto.Wouldn’t Tenseiga be able to destroy both of those, then?
>>288710166that's because Sakura is an obnoxious intolerable bitch. you'd GTFO too
>>288708172Setsuna is so prim and proper all the time, you know she would secretly be into the freaky shit.
