About the author
Rumiko Takahashi
1,586 books2,143 followersRumiko Takahashi (高橋留美子) was born in Niigata, Japan. She is not only one of the richest women in Japan but also one of the top paid manga artists. She is also the most successful female comic artist in history. She has been writing manga non-stop for 31 years.
Rumiko Takahashi is one of the wealthiest women in Japan. The manga she creates (and its anime adaptations) are very popular in the United States and Europe where they have been released as both manga and anime in English translation. Her works are relatively famous worldwide, and many of her series were some of the forerunners of early English language manga to be released in the nineties. Takahashi is also the best selling female comics artist in history; well over 100 million copies of her various works have been sold.
Though she was said to occasionally doodle in the margins of her papers while attending Niigata Chūō High School, Takahashi's interest in manga did not come until later. During her college years, she enrolled in Gekiga Sonjuku, a manga school founded by Kazuo Koike, mangaka of Crying Freeman and Lone Wolf and Cub. Under his guidance Rumiko Takahashi began to publish her first doujinshi creations in 1975, such as Bye-Bye Road and Star of Futile Dust. Kozue Koike often urged his students to create well-thought out, interesting characters, and this influence would greatly impact Rumiko Takahashi's works throughout her career.
Career and major works:
Takahashi's professional career began in 1978. Her first published story was Those Selfish Aliens, a comedic science fiction story. During the same year, she published Time Warp Trouble, Shake Your Buddha, and the Golden Gods of Poverty in Shōnen Sunday, which would remain the home to most of her major works for the next twenty years. Later that year, Rumiko attempted her first full-length series, Urusei Yatsura. Though it had a rocky start due to publishing difficulties, Urusei Yatsura would become one of the most beloved anime and manga comedies in Japan.
In 1980, Rumiko Takahashi found her niche and began to publish with regularity. At this time she started her second major series, Maison Ikkoku, in Big Comic Spirits. Written for an older audience, Maison Ikkoku is often considered to be one of the all-time best romance manga. Takahashi managed to work on Maison Ikkoku on and off simultaneously with Urusei Yatsura. She concluded both series in 1987, with Urusei Yatsura ending at 34 volumes, and Maison Ikkoku being 15.
During the 1980s, Takahashi became a prolific writer of short story manga, which is surprising considering the massive lengths of most of her works. Her stories The Laughing Target, Maris the Chojo, and Fire Tripper all were adapted into original video animations (OVAs). In 1984, after the end of Urusei Yatsura and Maison Ikkoku, Takahashi took a different approach to storytelling and began the dark, macabre Mermaid Saga. This series of short segments was published sporadically until 1994, with the final story being Mermaid's Mask. Many fans contend that this work remains unfinished by Takahashi, since the final story does not end on a conclusive note.
Another short work left untouched is One-Pound Gospel, which, like Mermaid Saga, was published erratically. The last story to be drawn was published in 2001, however just recently she wrote one final chapter concluding the series
Later in 1987, Takahashi began her third major series, Ranma ½. Following the late 80s and early 90s trend of shōnen martial arts manga, Ranma ½ features a gender-bending twist. The series continued for nearly a decade until 1996, when it ended at 38 volumes. Ranma ½ is one of Rumiko Takahashi's most popular series with the Western world.
During the later half of the 1990s, Rumiko Takahashi continued with short stories and her installments of Mermaid Saga and One-Pound Gospel until beginning her fourth major work, InuYasha. While Ran

Inu-Yasha's a-hole brother is back for revenge! And some other dude, also after revenge!
Lots of fights.

I really like all the glimpses into the past, so meeting Naraku and seeing him do his evil thing is quite fun.
There's more story finally starting to run through the series now so I'm really getting back into it! Plus now that the team is rounding out with a few more characters it adds a bit of banter which is always fun.
The relationship between Inuyasha and Kagome is unbearably cute, and I love how stubborn they both are in admitting their feelings. That's my kind of trope, I guess.
On to the next!

Kagome estuvo a punto de eliminar a Naraku.
Kikyo ha reaparecido, y su plan es peligroso, pero comprensible....De qué lado está ella?
La Tenseiga no creo que este en buenas manos, a menos de que algo cambie en Seshomaru.
La batalla final fue muy interesante

This is a pretty exciting read as Inuyasha faces off against his brother Sesshomaru. Turns out he and Naraku have a mutual hatred for Inuyasha. The fight scenes are well-drawn and entertaining. We also see a budding relationship between Kagome and Inuyasha, and I'm absolutely here for it.

Naraku is finaly introduced and is trying to kill Inuyasha. Now the story is picking up!
July 1, 2015
This one was a pretty good read.
A fight between Inuyasha's group and Sesshomaru where Sesshomaru was able to wield Inu's sword due to a replacement human arm given to him by Naraku. Whom we finally get to look at. I've said it before and I'll say it a million more times - I love Sesshomaru and all his hatred. He's always so calm in situations (unless Rin is involved, but we haven't meet her yet, so shhh).
After the fight most all of the group are pretty badly injured and being the loving man he is (even if he doesn't know it), Inuyasha was immensely worried about Kagome, pulled her close, stole the Shikon Jewel and sent her back to her own world through the well and sealing it.
I don't know about any of you, but if I were Kagome I would be fighting to find a way back, even though the block is placed on the feudal side of the portal. To me the school and going on dates would mean absolutely nothing. The world is in peril, even if Kagome is fifteen, she is still obnoxious.
Anyway, I'll get started on the next one.

*This review is for the series as a whole with 4.5 out of 5 stars*
This series is absolutely the longest series I’ve ever read so far, with a total of 56 volumes containing 559 chapters. Yeah right? I grew up watching anime and when I stumbled to this one, I instantly got hook. I’m so in love with this anime that I have the complete anime series in my possession. Yep! It occupy mostly the memory of my external drive haha sucker I know. And it’s just now that I finally had the courage to read its manga. I started reading this last December but had a 1 week off because of the Holiday until finally I finished it!
This story is about this modern Japanese girl, Kagome, that was pulled from her own time and went to feudal Japan. It is where she met the half yokai (supernatural monster in Japanese folklore) or also called Hanyou, Inuyasha. Two opposite personalities that were forced to travel together because of the Shikon Jewel or the Jewel of Four Souls.
Kagome (female lead) is so much fun and a wonderful heroine. If she’s a real person, she could be my hero. And Inuyasha on the other hand is such an awesome badass that thinking about him hurts. And as a couple, they sure are mind blowing. After writing this review, I’ll definitely re-watch the anime hehe.
Speaking of which, Inuyasha is a bad boy. But he’s the awesome kind of bad boy with humor and with a touch of dumbness at the same time. When he first met Kagome, I swear he could really be a great pain in the ass and is a straight-up a-hole. And as the story progresses, he became this kind of awesome person without losing his bad boy image ofcourse. And when it comes to Kagome, he sure is kind of protective and I love their usual bantering. It could get annoying sometimes but mostly entertaining lol, especially when Kagome really gets angry at him.
His character is so realistic too. Behind the bad boy image is the guy who lost his first love and when she returned, he’s torn between her and Kagome. Which to be honest, made me kind of mad at him. Well, I’m 100% with Kagome and I totally hate Kikyou. But after reading the manga, I still don’t like her, but she is kind of likeable now especially when she saved Kohaku. And also Inuyasha’s inner battle with his demon blood and his human heart, and you know what’s awesome about it? It’s because it’s only Kagome who can make him back to his senses, isn’t that just sweet?
(I was a bit teary-eyed when the Spider youkai were after them and he got bitten while he’s in his human form. And speaking of human form, he sure still rock it even with black hair minus the cute doggy ears. Then he lay on Kagome’s lap and told her that he love her scent even if he told her otherwise before. They’re in the middle of a dangerous situation but because of that, it became kind of romantic and unforgettable scene for me.)
Kagome on the other hand is a typical female lead. She started as a helpless girl until they found out about her being the reincarnation of Kikyou which was Inuyasha’s first love and the strongest Miko in the feudal Japan. I love how she became badass as the story progresses. Kikyou may be the first woman Inuyasha loved, but it is Kagome who really changed Inuyasha as a person. Plus, did I tell you how many times she saved Kikyou? Also, even how many times she got hurt because she’s Inuyasha’s first love, her heart remains pure.
I have to be honest, there’s some point in this series that totally got my nerve and made me flipped. That’s mostly about Inuyasha being torn between Kikyou and Kagome and how many times he chose Kikyou over Kagome. I mean, that’ quite of cruel really. But even that’s the case, I learn to outgrow it simply because he still travels with her, plus, once in a while they have their own moments. And speaking of moment, I need to step ahead and point out the lack of kissing scenes between them. In anime there’s quite a lot, but in manga, almost none. Yeah right?
As they travel, their group of two grows into a group of 6 where they met the kitsune Shippou, the monk Miroku, cool Sango and her cute Kirara.
Shippou is a cute Kitsune (fox) yokai that specializes in making pranks which he mostly use to Inuyasha lol. At first, they both hate each other and argues which is kind of funny lol. But as they both travels together, their relationship improved. He is really adorable and so attached to Kagome.
Miroku – A playboy and pervert who loves caressing women’s butt. But his proposal to Sango was pretty sweet.
Sango – a really tough cookie. I love her character and the fact that she can man handle guys. And her relationship with Miroku was so kawaii.
(Quite cliche eh? Inuyasha and Kagome fell in love with each other and Miroku, Sango with each other too. Well, IDC haha. I just love their group.)
Kirara – is a cute yokai that transforms into a ferocious beast during battles. Plus, he flies!
With a very long series, a long list of character isn’t a surprise at all. But what’s really hard with manga or anime is to get familiarize with the character’s names. But as for my favorites or the ones that totally got my attention here’s my list. (I’m being mean today, so I’m not going to add Kikyou in my list, blee)
1. Number one in my list is Sesshoumaru. I never thought I’d say this, but I’m one of those really annoying fangirls who love him. Deym! When I first saw him in the anime, I’ve got to say that there’s something dangerous about him. Inuyasha has this bad boy image, but Sesshoumaru is on the highest level. I really hate him at first. Unlike Inuyasha, he really is living the bad boy life. He’s rude, full of pride and all things bad. I specifically hated how he keeps on stealing their Father’s memento, Tessaiga, that is originally given to I But everything changed when he met Rin, and then we got to find out about Tenseiga and everything about it. Then, it just happens, I love Sesshoumaru. And then I came to the part about Meidou Zangetsuha, I feel so sorry for him. Huhu, and then after that my admiration for him intensified. He made me feel so many emotions, I almost cried because of him. It will take too much writing if I’ll enumerate the things that made me love Sesshoumaru so I’ll just let these images speaks for itself.
2. Well, obviously, it’s Rin. I love her character simply because she’s the reason why Sesshoumaru became compassionate, which is also the reason how he was now able to use his healing sword T And I love her teasing with Jaken. I love how the boring team of two grows and became lively because of her.Honestly, at first, I’m one of those fans that ships Rin to Sesshoumaru. But after I read the manga, I realized how absurd that is. I don’t know, but I think Jaken is right. Sesshoumaru is like a father to Rin in a strange way, and he sure is a great one.
3. Kagome’s family, her mother, younger brother Shouta, grandpa including their cat Buyo. I thought it’s going to be a big shocker when they met Inuyasha, but end up petting him like a pet dog lol. They’re all touching Inuyasha’s ears haha. Well, that couldn’t be help lol especially if he has that adorable doggy ears.
4. Kouga – The moment he was introduced in this series, I can’t stop laughing. He’s the third party between Inuyasha and Kagome and I can’t really stop laughing whenever I remember the scene where he boldly said that he loves Kagome and he’s determine to make her his woman. Well, after what Kagome went through because of Kikyou, I can’t help but send Inuyasha a dirty sign. Blee!
5. Miyouga – The coward flea. He’s some sort of the guy who knows it all, well, not totally all but mostly about Inuyasha and his father. I wish this series was able to show something about the past especially about Inuyasha’s father and mother. Well, it did actually in the anime.
6. Totosai – The swordsmith who forged Tessaiga and Tenseiga due to Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru’s father’s request. I would have love it more if they included a back story of him too.
7. Kaede – Kikyou’s younger sister. A strong lady who would probably live another 50 years the way she’s going.
8. Kohaku – The younger brother of Sango. For a young age, he’s been through a lot. But I’m happy how he was able to regain or fight for his humanity after what Naraku did to him.
9. Jaken – Originally, I didn’t have the intention of adding him in this list but looking back, I have to say that he made my whole reading experience so enjoyable too. He’s Sesshoumaru’s companion. He’s arrogant and even pitiful sometimes especially when he receives death glare or punches from Sesshoumaru when he’s pissed but he is mostly funny especially when Rin joined the group.
10. Naraku – For the ultimate cunning supervilain, I guess he quite deserve to be in this list lol. He’s a hanyou like Inuyasha. He’s the reason why Kikyou died 50 years ago and is the reason why Kikyou and Inuyasha had a rough past.
When I think about it, this is obviously a typical adventure anime/manga. For an adventure stories, the idea of different set of individuals forming a group while traveling is quite cliche too, let alone falling in love with each other! But what sets this story different from others is on the adventures each characters went through. When I though it’s the end and the ideas are already sucked out dry from the author, we then introduced to a new unexpected scene. I’ve been watching anime and they all gave me the same reaction. And what is that? It’s astonishment. We might already encountered the story’s plot before, but the twists and turns, the scenes, the lines are so unique. I can’t count how many times I said out loud “I didn’t expected that!” while reading this series.
All we’re covered too. I love that each characters has their own background covered, so we all got the chance to really know more about them and where they come from. I love that each characters have the chance to stand out and we’ve got to see how they matured with each chapters. As the title goes, without watching the anime, I really thought this series would only revolves around Inuyasha, well, it kind of does since each characters have a connection with Inuyasha. But what I like to say is that the author didn’t made a selfish decision to just make Inuyasha the hero all the time. We’ve got the chance to see the weaker side of him, the annoying one, the part where others from the group became the hero and saved him, and ofcourse the funny and dense Inuyasha which is my favorite.
As I said, this series has a total of 559 chapters so it will absolutely take us a lot of time if I talk about the adventures the group encountered one by one. So to make it short, I’ll just “kind of share” my favorite chapters from this series. Before I decided to read this manga, I have a lot of favorite scenes from the anime, mostly? Well, all of them we’re from Kagome and Inuyasha. But after reading the manga, I have to say that my favorite scenes were from Sesshoumaru (Inuyasha’s youkai brother). The first one was when he met Rin (human girl) and resurrected her. I really love how little by little he changed from this full mean badboy image to a compassionate one. He’s still a badboy but when he’s with Rin, dayum, I just can’t help but squeal in delight. And another favorite scene was when he went inside the meidou (a place where the living are not suppose to go) to save Rin. It’s also the most touching scene ever because of how he discarded his sword tenseiga (his father’s memento) because it can’t save Rin. Like dang! (just zoom the image to read the lines)
For my rating, I’m detracting a half star. It really is painful but I guess I really need to. It’s because even with the 559 chapters, it failed to tell us an introduction of what really is a yokai or hanyou or everything about those so-called monster. I mean, it’s been 50 years after that the story resumed but Sesshoumaru look as fabulous as ever and so is Inuyasha. I mean, if Inuyasha and Kagome will live together as man and wife, Kagome will age and Inuyasha would still be looking the same? The slowness of the villains too is quite so-so but I understand that to make this series long. Also, about crossing time through the well, in its first few chapters, we’ve got to find out that it’s the Shikon Jewel that connects the two worlds, but I remembered after Naraku seized all the shards of the Jewel, Kagome was still able to go back to her world. That really is kinda confusing though. And lastly, the epilogue. Dang! Sango and Miroku had their three little angels, how come Inuyasha and Kagome didn’t have atleast 1 son or daughter?! Oh well, I guess you can’t really have all.
You might be wondering which one of the two I love, manga or anime, I have to say that I love both. All the scenes from manga can be seen in anime, but what’s great with anime is that there’s some new scenes added to it. So if you’re planning to read the manga, I would highly recommend watching the anime too.
I would highly recommend this series, if you’re down for a good solid adventure and a kickass heroine with a sexy demon badboy. It’s often hilariously funny and the drawing is so lovely. It’s just simply awesome.

It will take too much writing if I’ll enumerate the things that made me love Sesshoumaru so I’ll just let these images speaks for itself.
2. Well, obviously, it’s Rin. I love her character simply because she’s the reason why Sesshoumaru became compassionate, which is also the reason how he was now able to use his healing sword T And I love her teasing with Jaken. I love how the boring team of two grows and became lively because of her.Honestly, at first, I’m one of those fans that ships Rin to Sesshoumaru. But after I read the manga, I realized how absurd that is. I don’t know, but I think Jaken is right. Sesshoumaru is like a father to Rin in a strange way, and he sure is a great one.
3. Kagome’s family, her mother, younger brother Shouta, grandpa including their cat Buyo. I thought it’s going to be a big shocker when they met Inuyasha, but end up petting him like a pet dog lol. They’re all touching Inuyasha’s ears haha. Well, that couldn’t be help lol especially if he has that adorable doggy ears.
4. Kouga – The moment he was introduced in this series, I can’t stop laughing. He’s the third party between Inuyasha and Kagome and I can’t really stop laughing whenever I remember the scene where he boldly said that he loves Kagome and he’s determine to make her his woman. Well, after what Kagome went through because of Kikyou, I can’t help but send Inuyasha a dirty sign. Blee!
5. Miyouga – The coward flea. He’s some sort of the guy who knows it all, well, not totally all but mostly about Inuyasha and his father. I wish this series was able to show something about the past especially about Inuyasha’s father and mother. Well, it did actually in the anime.
6. Totosai – The swordsmith who forged Tessaiga and Tenseiga due to Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru’s father’s request. I would have love it more if they included a back story of him too.
7. Kaede – Kikyou’s younger sister. A strong lady who would probably live another 50 years the way she’s going.
8. Kohaku – The younger brother of Sango. For a young age, he’s been through a lot. But I’m happy how he was able to regain or fight for his humanity after what Naraku did to him.
9. Jaken – Originally, I didn’t have the intention of adding him in this list but looking back, I have to say that he made my whole reading experience so enjoyable too. He’s Sesshoumaru’s companion. He’s arrogant and even pitiful sometimes especially when he receives death glare or punches from Sesshoumaru when he’s pissed but he is mostly funny especially when Rin joined the group.
10. Naraku – For the ultimate cunning supervilain, I guess he quite deserve to be in this list lol. He’s a hanyou like Inuyasha. He’s the reason why Kikyou died 50 years ago and is the reason why Kikyou and Inuyasha had a rough past.
When I think about it, this is obviously a typical adventure anime/manga. For an adventure stories, the idea of different set of individuals forming a group while traveling is quite cliche too, let alone falling in love with each other! But what sets this story different from others is on the adventures each characters went through. When I though it’s the end and the ideas are already sucked out dry from the author, we then introduced to a new unexpected scene. I’ve been watching anime and they all gave me the same reaction. And what is that? It’s astonishment. We might already encountered the story’s plot before, but the twists and turns, the scenes, the lines are so unique. I can’t count how many times I said out loud “I didn’t expected that!” while reading this series.
All we’re covered too. I love that each characters has their own background covered, so we all got the chance to really know more about them and where they come from. I love that each characters have the chance to stand out and we’ve got to see how they matured with each chapters. As the title goes, without watching the anime, I really thought this series would only revolves around Inuyasha, well, it kind of does since each characters have a connection with Inuyasha. But what I like to say is that the author didn’t made a selfish decision to just make Inuyasha the hero all the time. We’ve got the chance to see the weaker side of him, the annoying one, the part where others from the group became the hero and saved him, and ofcourse the funny and dense Inuyasha which is my favorite.
As I said, this series has a total of 559 chapters so it will absolutely take us a lot of time if I talk about the adventures the group encountered one by one. So to make it short, I’ll just “kind of share” my favorite chapters from this series. Before I decided to read this manga, I have a lot of favorite scenes from the anime, mostly? Well, all of them we’re from Kagome and Inuyasha. But after reading the manga, I have to say that my favorite scenes were from Sesshoumaru (Inuyasha’s youkai brother). The first one was when he met Rin (human girl) and resurrected her. I really love how little by little he changed from this full mean badboy image to a compassionate one. He’s still a badboy but when he’s with Rin, dayum, I just can’t help but squeal in delight. And another favorite scene was when he went inside the meidou (a place where the living are not suppose to go) to save Rin. It’s also the most touching scene ever because of how he discarded his sword tenseiga (his father’s memento) because it can’t save Rin. Like dang! (just zoom the image to read the lines)
For my rating, I’m detracting a half star. It really is painful but I guess I really need to. It’s because even with the 559 chapters, it failed to tell us an introduction of what really is a yokai or hanyou or everything about those so-called monster. I mean, it’s been 50 years after that the story resumed but Sesshoumaru look as fabulous as ever and so is Inuyasha. I mean, if Inuyasha and Kagome will live together as man and wife, Kagome will age and Inuyasha would still be looking the same? The slowness of the villains too is quite so-so but I understand that to make this series long. Also, about crossing time through the well, in its first few chapters, we’ve got to find out that it’s the Shikon Jewel that connects the two worlds, but I remembered after Naraku seized all the shards of the Jewel, Kagome was still able to go back to her world. That really is kinda confusing though. And lastly, the epilogue. Dang! Sango and Miroku had their three little angels, how come Inuyasha and Kagome didn’t have atleast 1 son or daughter?! Oh well, I guess you can’t really have all.
You might be wondering which one of the two I love, manga or anime, I have to say that I love both. All the scenes from manga can be seen in anime, but what’s great with anime is that there’s some new scenes added to it. So if you’re planning to read the manga, I would highly recommend watching the anime too.
I would highly recommend this series, if you’re down for a good solid adventure and a kickass heroine with a sexy demon badboy. It’s often hilariously funny and the drawing is so lovely. It’s just simply awesome.
Rating: 4.5 out of 5 stars

We get a fantastic fight between the brothers. We get to now a little more about what happen with Inuyasha 50 years ago. We also get to see that both him and Kogame have strong feelings towards each other. We also get to see what Naraku is capable of doing. I am happy that I couldn't put this book down and im very excited to read the next volume!!
June 20, 2024
We're finally getting some character development and a cohesive plotline other than just collecting the jewel shards! I'm liking the evolving dynamic between InuYasha and Kagome, and Miroku managed to not be completely lecherous in this one. On to the next!

This was also good, especially because it was a lot funnier and also I got some good shipper moments

Why the older brother kinda-
Inuyasha is such a SIMP for Kagome

Leaf My Head Alone!
I always enjoy a bit of Sesshomaru but he really needs to learn to stop endangering Kagome in front of Inuyasha. Some weaknesses of characters are introduced and we see more of Naraku, giving us confirmation that he is a thoroughly unpleasant character (you know in case we hadn’t already guessed that). I’m looking forward to the next volume and eager to see if Kagome makes a dramatic reappearance!

Big brother Sesshomaru is back with vengeance! I wish he were around more, but his fights with InuYasha are KILLER. Add to it, Naraku has his hands all up in InuYasha's life, by giving Sesshomaru a cursed arm with a jewel shard. Stupid Naraku.
And of course, InuYasha is a macho man, he sends Kagome home without the jewel! :C Stupid, stupid man.

In this volume we find out the first parts of who Naraku is and why he does what he does.
Still, a lot of mysteries are still surrounding him.
And Inu Yasha makes a decision which effects Kagome and everyone else.

More Sesshomaru (yay), and the first inklings of the intertwined tale of Inuyasha, Kikyo, and Naraku. As always, I appreciate Takahashi-sensei’s ability to blend humorous relief with the fight scenes (like Miroku and Jaken’s scenes together).
April 20, 2023
Sesshomaru torna e si confronta con Inuyasha per rubargli la spada Tessaiga. Come collaboratori, oltre al fidato Jaken, ha anche Naraku, il demone che aveva lanciato la maledizione alla famiglia del monaco Miroku, che fa parte della squadra di Inuyasha (il mondo è piccolo).
Dopo la battaglia, che ovviamente non si conclude con la sconfitta di nessuno dei due, Inuyasha manda via Kagome per paura che si faccia male, perché ha capito che il demone Naraku è molto potente e pericoloso. Ed ecco che si intravede un po' di storia d'amore finalmente, la colonna portante di questo manga che è stata indegnamente sepolta sotto infantili combattimenti per un pubblico dai gusti dubbi.
Si torna alla storia principale di cinquant'anni fa e si scopre che Kikyo aveva aiutato un ladro e che anche questo era stato poi travolto da quel demone Naraku. Quando Inuyasha visita la grotta in cui era stato ospitato il ladro, c'è un'apparizione della sacerdotessa Kikyo indotta dall’incenso inserito nello stomaco di una lucertola morta! Peccato perché stava andando bene, ma una lucertola morta proprio no grazie! Basta animali morti!
La trama va di male in peggio quando arriva un altro demone che vomita lupi che vengono uccisi da Inuyasha! Basta, ma perché deve avere queste tendenze cretine e non ci sono altri termini per descrivere queste scelte stilistiche che prevedono demoni vomitevoli in tutti i sensi in questo caso! Un vero peccato e non solo per il banale splatter ma ci sono animali morti continuamente, non ne posso più!
La storia è ben costruita perché c'è la squadra che si aggrega sempre di più, non solo Inuyasha e Kagome, ma anche il monaco, il demone pulce Myoga, il demone volpe Shippo e a volte Kaede, la sorella di Kikyo.
Durante la sua permanenza a casa, Kagome pensa ovviamente ad Inuyasha e la storia si trasforma per un momento in un manga romantico, sfoderando tutta la potenza che avrebbe potuto avere.
Con questo numero, la storia resta aperta: Inuyasha da una parte in difficoltà per l'ennesimo demone e Kagome dall'altra in difficoltà per essere stata buttata fuori.
Il numero era iniziato molto bene con il ritorno di Sesshomaru, che forse è anche più affascinante del fratello. Questo manga mi fa perdere la testa. Da una parte c'è una trama che ti fa venire voglia di buttare il fascicolo dalla finestra, dall'altra ci sono questi personaggi favolosi e ormai cult.
Si va avanti, rendendo sempre grazie alla biblioteca e alla lente d'ingrandimento!

This is a reread.
I never liked Sesshomoru when I was a teenager and I still don't like him. That's part of why I can't rate this volume 5 stars. I really don't understand why so many people like him, except that he's kind of good looking (not my type of good looking though) and maybe because he's always so calm but he's just so boring and arrogant. I like some characters who are calm no matter what because their so confident or they just don't show facial expressions that it becomes funny (like Aizen), but he's not funny, and there are many characters who are arrogant that I don't hate at all, like Inuyasha. It will take too long to explain on why I hate Sesshomoru and barely anyone reads these reviews, so it doesn't even really matter.
This volume really goes to show that Inuyasha does care about people, but part of the reason he doesn't want to care and doesn't trust people is because of his past with Kikyo and because of how people have always treated him just because he's half demon, it's so sad😭 Yet despite that, he still can't let people die.

What I loved about this volume is that it abandons the “monster of the week” format and exposition from previous volumes so it spends more time strengthening the overarching plot. It ventures into a deeper story involving our bonded crew: Kagome, Inuyasha, Miroku, Shippo, and Kaede, as well as a well-established villain (enter the mysterious Naraku/Onigumo, and their motivations). We also get to see more of Sesshomaru, which I love! It’s cool to learn how some elements of this developing story go all the way back to Inuyasha’s, Miroku’s, Kikyo’s, and Kaede’s pasts. We also see Inuyasha gets wounded both physically and emotionally, so he sends Kagome back to her present-day/future. Excited to keep reading!

A volume of character/relationship growth and development + a deeper look at our overarching villain and the developing plot.
The first half works better, encapsulating all that development within the story of another face-off between Inuyasha and Sesshomaru while the back-half has some villain monologuing and exposition from Kaede to explain Naraku/Onigumo's backstory. And it kind of feels like a shame that so much is explained so soon after Naraku's introduction? I think it would have worked better or at least been more fun if there remained more mystery around him.
Regardless, the return of Sesshomaru and the subsequent character growth is very good. Through the fight we also learn more about Tetsusaiga, the all-knowing and seeing puppet-master aspects of Naraku, and Kagome's growing spiritual powers.
Now that we've been introduced to Inuyasha's guilt over Kikyo and how heavily it weighs on him, it is taken to new heights as he becomes more serious about his actions and their effects. Up to this point we've seen him protect Kagome over and over again, but here there is more to it. It's emphasized. Not only can we recognize what's happening but Inuyasha can too. And so can "You're quicker when defending your wench" Sesshomaru. After what happened with Kikyo, Inuyasha has an increased need to protect Kagome and her getting hurt during his fight with Sesshomaru really fuels him with rage ("You shouldn't have involved Kagome...")
And while Inuyasha's new goal is to avenge Kikyo, within that is protecting Kagome from the same fate. This is made very clear multiple times. He tells Miroku to only do "one thing. Just don't let Kagome die" and later, in response to Shippo asking if he cares about ever seeing Kagome again, he says: "as long as I know she's alive somewhere, that's enough. I don't want to see another woman die" (because of me). This is a big change of pace from the Inuyasha of previous chapters/arcs, the one who hated when Kagome returned to her own time and prioritized her being in his era. He has gone from calling his era their home to saying beyond the well is "Kagome's true home." Previously he justified wanting Kagome there as being solely for the benefit of using her jewel detection powers (even though it was clear he also enjoyed her company), and now he is willing to forego the use of her abilities in order to prioritize her safety. The stakes have increased, but I think Inuyasha has evolved a little too.
The prioritization of Kagome's safety takes a toll in more ways than one, and we really see Inuyasha pushed to his limit. Not only does he get longer lasting injuries, but his desire to protect Kagome is so strong that he is able to defend her even when unconscious ("Inuyasha may seem unconscious...but if I should step too close...I know he will swing that blade.") We get some of Inuyasha's feelings on the matter in a slight disguise when he explains he sent Kagome home because "[he] can't fight the way [he wants] when she's around." Yes, his short-term goal of winning a fight and his actions may be altered by Kagome's presence and his main goal of protecting her, but the fight against Sesshomaru also shows that Kagome makes him a stronger and a more skilled fighter. His removal of Kagome from a dangerous environment does keep her safe, but it may be more about protecting his own feelings and emotional state.
Inuyasha isn't the only one who puts saving someone else first as Kagome does the same for him, constantly putting herself in the line of fire to help him out. She puts his needs above her own; they both are willing to endanger and sacrifice themselves for the other. Only Inuyasha might feel the reality of the danger more acutely because of what happened with Kikyo and how he is more durable than a human like Kagome.
The increased weight of danger and Inuyasha's growth really manifests in how we talks to Kagome before forcing her to go home. Though Kagome insists she isn't afraid, Inuyasha tells her: "I was scared." 'When I thought Kagome could die...I was scared.'" And really, Kagome should have more concerns about her own well-being. This is not a case of Kagome is right and Inuyasha is wrong. But Inuyasha gives off some mixed signals and is willing to be "the bad guy," going from hugging her to pushing her down the well and stealing the jewel. It is a sort of reflection of the perceived betrayal of Kikyo by Inuyasha–"pretending" to have affection for her just so he can take the jewel and acquire power when really he is acting this way because of his affection. There is something to be said about how the element of time is what saves Kagome from the same tragic fate as Kikyo...
Speaking of Kikyo and Inuyasha, learning more about Naraku and his history with Kikyo sets up another dynamic exploring hate/love. There are parallels between Inuyasha and Naraku.
And while Inuyasha, Miroku, and Shippo get more Naraku/Onigumo backstory, there is a pleasant teenage girl-ness to Kagome's experience on the other side of the well. But her distracted thoughts about Inuyasha also serve to illustrate how she is prioritizing his time over her own.
Overall, a solid volume that continues the overarching plot while developing the characters. Inuyasha gets his own gold star for trying to communicate, even if he ends up failing. This one is really only held back by some of the exposition. Sesshomaru always seems to bring some good stuff, working well as a vessel for story and development.

Der böse Bruder von Inu Yasha ist wieder da, hat einen neuen Arm und klaut das grosse Schwert. Für den siebten Band von "Inu Yasha" bedeutet es, dass viel gekämpft wird, in grossen Panels und Splash-Pages. Handlung gibt es nicht viel, man erhält aber mehr Andeutungen zur Vergangenheit.
Schade bloss, verkommt Kagome immer mehr zu einer blockierten Nebenfigur - auch weil die Gegner mit jedem Band stärker werden.

Rumiko Takahashi is indeed a master at revealing and making the journey something memorable, and at time with very little being revealed. That's the feelings I had when I finished this volume. We got some back story and flashbacks. We got some interactions and small insights on InuYasha and his half-brother Sesshomaru. We get InuYasha kicking Kagome out of his life too! Pretty interesting volume to enjoy!

Die Geschichte hat hier noch einmal richtig an Tiefe gewonnen, nicht nur die Handlung sondern auch die Figuren. Ach Inuyasha! 😭💙 Man erfährt mehr über Inuyashas und Kikyos Vergangenheit bzw wer die beiden möglicherweise reingelegt hat.

Wow, just as soon as we meet Miroku and those damn bugs show up already??? Crazy.
Glad they explained why Naraku pitted Inuyasha and Kikyo against each other. They never bothered to include those few lines in the anime and I was always confused by it.
