Anime Rant: Inuyasha
18 years ago
Really, no matter how many times I see this show on, it doesn't matter if it's a brand new episode or a rerun...99% of the times I get pissed off and just want to rant, so that's what I'm doing now.
Ok first thing's firs,t I never try to watch this show intentionally..but whenever I turn on cartoon network in the wee hours of the morning, it's ALWAYS on...like a curse. I mean damn, if it was good I'd be like, "Awesome" but instead I'm more *sad pants!* really, this show is just...badly done. I don't try to watch it, but I keep the tv on at nearly all the time, unless i'm sleeping or playing a game or something (tv is stil on duh, I know) but even the voices and what not overheard from the clacking of my keyboard really just...piss me right the %*@& off. Speaking of voices, lets go with characters...oh boy, aren't they a doozy.
Inuyasha- Well...his name is in the title, so the show's about him mostly, but if I ever saw some guy with a sword, dog ears, long girly white hair and wearing a freakin' red DRESS. I'd call him a closet furry and flip him the bird, probably even joke about his dead parents (it's their fault he's here!) and throw a brick at him, bastard has it comming. Normally main characters are all strong, and determined, Inuyasha's no different I guess. The guy's half-demon, and that's supposed to be really something compared to actual demons that he kills with no problem...>.> sounds like being a half is the way to go..*coughs* but anyway, the guy is a grade A+ douchebag. He runs around fedal japan kickin' ass and taking names with his "Friends" though he maintains a headstrong, "Hey you! you can't defeat me I'm the main %*@&%'n character!" attitude, and so far it hasn't steered him wrong.
The guy's like over 50 years old or something, I don't know, don't really care, but he if had a lot of cool moves or some shit maybe this show would be more interesting. He has like....5 moves, after like....8 seasons of this show >.> 3 of those moves are all from his sword, and two them make little whirlwind things, while the last like...throws rocks or some shit. The other two moves are basically the same thing, except one is red and he shouts "BLADES OF BLOOD!!"...oh yeah, like everyone says their moves like in digimon, but I can't name a single character in this show I'd want sex and or vore from...*coughs* moving on >.>
Inuyasha is stuborn...if you think that's surprising, he's in a love triangle...another shock, he also doesn't know how to express his feelings...talk about a non-cliche`. Who the hell was thinking of those qualities if when they wrote this show? If this was a sitcom in the states, it would have been cancled long ago...it's like Three's Company without any gay jokes....oh wait, I jumped the gun there >.> there's probably billions of yaoi pics with this guy and the other cast members...probably some yuri too, but anyway, lets not dwell on this guy too long, I'm bound I'll mention him again.
Kagome- She's the other main character, and I think she actually has more backstory and plot than Inuyasha the actual main character...oh don't worry, it's not much, it's just that she has two lives, and she goes back and forth because she's magic or some shit. In the "Real" world (modern day) she goes to middle school...ok, this broad is like 12-14 years old, yet she looks like some bitch who's like 18-20. Her other life is in Inuyasha's world I guess, feudal Japan or something where she fighs demons and kills them with magical arrows since she's something, but can -only- do it with a bow -and- an arrow, can't like get a knife and be like...magic knife go! She has these powers cause she's some reincarnated chick who I'll talk about next. Oh, and her parents, I mean mom and grandpa and little brother who aren't important, don't give a rat's ass what this girl does. "Going to go cut myself cause Inuyasha doesn't touch my 12 year old snatch." "KAGOME! Ok, I'll make you a boxed lunch." "And I'll tell your school that wonders why you're always absent that you have AIDs." "And I'll be a filler episode each time you mention me!" Guess who said what, it's not hard...but her family sucks, and are total filler characters, but if you think about everyone in this show is filler...oh yeah, and Kagome only wears the japanese school girl outfit, so I guess it makes it easier to see her panties...eww D: This girl needs to be slapped, her ass put back in school, and probably raped by her grandpa, it'd be for comedic relief anyway, but that might be interesting.
Kiyko(don't know or care if I spelled that one right)- First thing about Kiyko or whatever, this is the other part of the love triangle, and Kagome is supposed to be her reincarnation...or something. Also this bitch ALWAYS dies, and everyone believes it, seriously, it's sad, and they never stop to think, "Eh..she'll be back, duh." She lives in the feudal world, everyone does but Kagome and her shitty family I guess, and knew Inuyasha like 50 years ago, but she died, or so they say, and she kicked that dog's ass before dying. She has some magic powers...just cause she's a priestess and part albino. She has the same bow and arrow only rule to use her special powers, unless a single episode says otherwise. This broad only smiles in flashbacks, so she is pretty much an emo chick that wears pretty much the same clothing as Inuyasha...interesting, though not really, they just have a bad sense in fashion. And since she's dead, she devours the souls of the living...no seriously, not joking, that's what she does, but no one seems to care since she used to be important. Now she's just angsty and struggles to be a main character that always dies. But does she yearn for the loving of Inuyasha? Who the fuck cares, the guy's a douche. Oh yeah, her little sister is like 90 years old and a fuggin' pirate cause the bitch got an arrow to the eye or something when she was like 7, HA!
Naraku- Alright, this guy is the villian...what's cool about him? Oh wait, he never dies either...it's partially because his "powers" are never really explained and make no sense, and whenever he's about to die he just floats away while everyone shouts crap like, "CURSE you NARAKU!! I'd shoot your ass with a SACRED ARROW...but no!" dun dun dunnn...talk about suspense. This guy isn't too interesting, but he caused like the only plot twist ever in this entire show, and it still wasn't that good. His powers are really he can just like...make different versions of himself, which he has an unlimited amount of and just makes another one if the storyline needs another speedbump, since it's so interesting to start off with *big fat lie* Really, this guy is a crappy villan..."Instead of killing you I'll let you wallow in your own failure and send more people you can easily defat after you, INUYASHA, KAGOME, *every other cast member*" That's cliche`...but it's bad cliche`, he's like the only actual villan villan, the rest are just there because he's busy plotting...no not really, he's sitting at home playing WoW or some nonsense.
Shippo- You're probably familar with Shippo...he's loud, obnoxious, whiny, useless, underage, and part fox. Sounds like 50% of the FA community *DISS* no wait, I meant to say the fuggin' furryfandom *Truth, bitches* no wait, 50% is too low...ok, enough of making fun of everyone and no one at the same time, lets just say Shippo is a full demon, totally useless, but you'll see him in yaoi stories and artwork most likely. He's like Tails, only not nearly as popular, and more subby, and less fox-like. His character is not important, but he's Inuyasha's punching bag, so yay for child-abuse as a form of cheap laughter. He doesn't fight, but about every 20 episodes he gets his own episode wher ehe goes on some lame little adventure. Oh yeah, his parents are dead too.
Miroku- This guy's a monk, but there's a twist! He's all horny and stuff, so he's like a fallen monk or something. Sad thing is $50 says he's a virgin, and $100 says he can't masturbate cause if his right hand doesn't have beads on it, then a void that sucks in everything is made present. Hard to beat off like that, even if his special ability totally sucks. It's kinda effective I guess, but if he was to ever use it in a situation it would be really usefulOh yeah, he's a monk that goes around feeling up girl's butts, they slap him, more cheap humor, but it leaves a hand print, so it's cheap ANIME humor! He uses a staff thing too and throws around SACRED SUTRAS! like that skank from Sailor Moon, only I still don't see how paper can fly like that, and outside for christ's sake, magic or not it's still paper...oh yeah, and he's confused about his feelings too! What a MAN! Though he's in a, "I don't know how to tell my feelings for you, SONGO." relationship with the next character. Please do not confuse this Miroku with the one that likes to hang around furries and is a fan of macro/micro vore X3 he's very cool.
Songo- She's a demon slayer, and throws a big assed boomerang thing called HIRAKO....HIRAKKKOO....who the fuck -cares?- the weapon itself makes no sense. All because it looks like a boomerang it doesn't mean it should automatically come back to the thrower no matter how it's tossed, and be able to cut through the flesh and scales of all powerful demons! But I should not quesion her ways, since all of her comrades were all killed by her like...10 year old brother, KOHAKU!! Now -that- was funny, "I have YEARS of experience, I won't be killed by a- blarg! Kama in the back! *die*" They couldn't kill some kid who's balls haven't dropped...oh yeah, -he- doesn't die either cause of the SHIKCON JEWEL!!11! or however it's spelled, like I said before, don't really care about spelling here, I'm not going to really resarch this show, just go with all of the frustration it has given me. Oh yeah, Songo is TIRED of that perverted monk, but is afraid to admit her feelings for him too, waah...shit it's like Dawson's Creek, only I actually know about this show. Talk about lame. Oh yeah, dead parents here too.
Sesshomaru- Now this guy is BADASS, SUAVE, POWERFUL, and OMFGTOOOCUTEBISHI!!<3 *vomits and passes out only to wake up hours later with his paws soaked in...foodchunks* ok...I deserved that, but pretty much This guy is the Sephiroth of this show. As in he starts off kinda cool, but then his white hair, emotion-less face, lack of real character, big sword, mystery, long girl-assed white hair, incredibly POWERZ, yet he's so fuggin' overrated no one seems to care anymore. Oh yeah, he walks around with some green thing JAKEN!! or MASTER JAKEN! As the little girl he brings along with him says, but who the hell cares? Jaken is a douche thing that never shuts the hell up, ever, and you just want to grab him by the neck and shake him like a baby...only harder. Rin, the little girl actually has some storyline...and she's like the only character that tries to make sense, oh yeah, also has dead parents. And Sesshomaru is Inuyasha's older brother PLOT TWIST! But they don't get along and are jealous of one another yet secretly admire one another OMFG! Cliche` once more. Really, there's nothing amazing about the characters, especially this guy.
Koga (and the wolf demons)- Sound interesting? Well, the dog demons Inu and Sess aren't, the fox demon Shippo disapoints...what about the wolves? Yes, big time. First off, I don't understand why they bother to put a species before the word demon, when really none of them resemble said species, they're like 98% human. Unless you count what Sess did in like, one episode early on, only once though, marco dog was kinda cool I guess...but yeah, Koga and his friends suck. Not only are Inu and Sess tons of times stronger than these guys, despite they're like dogs, and you'd think that a wolf would be stronger...but hey, whatever, the half demon wins against all. Koga doesn't resemble a wolf in any way, but he does wear a lot of fur, no doubt from dead wolves >.> but whatever. He doesn't get along with INUYASHA! And vice versa, but the two are so gay for one another, no one really doesn't get along, they all want sex from those they claim to hate. Koga loves Kagome, uuuuhhh oh, do you think Inu is jealous? Yep!!! But whatever, these guys don't even deserve a paragraph. Personally I loved the episode where a bunch of them die painful deaths, and Koga gets all upset, wah wah wah..and the feral wolves aren't well drawn >.> but a few of them have tried to eat Shippo, so they can't be all that bad. Koga and Inu are probably going to end up having sex, Inu gets pregnant and they fall in love...which I was told happened in a story, and from the sound of things that was a lot more interesting to pay attention to.
Ok, screw the rest of the characters since they're nothing but filler...oh wait, the whole show is filler...but...how? Lets get to the plot section..*sighs heavily*
Plot...or lack thereof. What's the mission in this show? Save the world? Kinda, but more like just save feudal japan. Get the dragonballs? That's pretty close. Find true love and explore how fragile emotions really are? And that even demons can learn to love...ok half demons? No, the writers aren't that talented, and that's still a lame cliche`. Is it to annoy the crap out of me and probably thousdands, if not millions of others who have seen this show? Not...quite...but...closer- Oh yeah! It's to find the SHIKON JEWEL!!!! Or whatever the hell it's called.
Yep, that's it.
The jewel breaks in the first episode, and it was somehow in Kagome's vagoo or something since the dumb broad falls in a well with no water in it...ever, and ends up on feudal japan. She breaks it after shooting her first SACRED ARROW! But that's after she meets Inuyasha and hilarity ensues...no it doesn't, a train wreck starts and it doesn't stop...ever. The entire point of these people going around fighting demons and crap are to get jewel shards...trust me, there's a LOT of them *BIG SPOILER* Naraku has like, 99% and could get the other 1% if he actually...tried, but he's too powerful to waste his time on WEAKLINGS AND FOOLS like that FOOLISH HALF-BREED INUYASHA! *ughs* oh yeah, the jewel is some sort of amazing powerful thing...what does this thing do? How the fuck should I know. It makes demons bigger, it makes humans stronger or something, or greedy I don't know, it brings the dead back to life, I think it brings statues to life, it makes weapons...something, who cares? What IS this thing? A jack of all trades? It also can be evil, if it's used for evil! But it's like, never used for good...I BLAME MANKIND FOR THIS! FOR THEY ARE ALLLLL EVIL! Oh wait, it's just Japan, well <insert racist joke and a skunk getting hit by a brick here>....I deserved that, thanks a lot you filthy <'nother brick>
...if you think I'm exaggerating, ask someone else about this show, ask them what they're doing. They're after this one villan that's too lazy to do anything but dick around in some random location that no one can ever find. There are no story arcs, cause they're all after the same objective...just with cute little spinoffs I guess.
"INUYASHA meets the Thunder Brothers"
"INUYASHA meets the Band of 7"
"INUYASHA meets the CAT Demons"
"INUYASHA goes to the ZOO"
"INUYASHA SUCKS MY DICK!!!!"
"INUYASHA has AIDs...thanks a lot Koga"
All of these story arcs feature the amazing, and coveted Shikon Jewel!
At least in DBZ they did shit -besides- just look for the dragonballs >.> sometimes time moved forward, but in this show it just stands still...every episode features at least one jewel shard in some way or another, save for a few filler episodes. The characters love to say what has happened, even after it happened, after someone else says it has happened...ex.
*Naraku blocks a WIND SCAR*
"FOOLISH HALF BREED INUYASHA, I, NARAKU have absorbed the souls of 1 bagjillion demons! Your TETSAIGA cannot defeat me! NARAKU!"
*Inuyasha growls*
"DAMN YOU NARAKU! You absorbed my TESAIGA'S WIND SCAR! You absorbed those demonic souls to get stronger!"
*Kagome whiiines*
"INUYASHA!!! Becareful! NARAKU absorbed the souls of those demons and is now a lot stronger, your WIND SCAR is of no use!"
*Miroku tries to be useful*
"I'll use my WIND TUNNEL INUYASHA! Now that NARAKU is too strong after absorbing the essence of those demons, the WIND SCAR from TETSAIGA is no use!!!"
*Just as the monk readies to take out his anal beads, er, take off the beads on his arm, Songo stops him after a bug buzzes by*
"Don't do it MIROKU! If you use your WIND TUNNEL on NARAKU after INUYASHA....
Ok, I'm done making an ass of myself...but that's how the show is. Just add in Shippo and probably the cute kitty thing that hangs around them. The episode would end with Naraku's head floating away with everyone screaming and -cursing- his name. Since that's better than shooting a -Super- Effective SACRED ARROW at him. Oh yeah, and it would show Kiyiko cutting herself...no? Oh, well she'd be walking and probably say something like, "I have to stop NARAKU....I have to...because....I...er...hmm..*is killed*...*revives* BRAINS! OMNOMNOM!"
*shivers* ok, I think I hate myself enough now, I'm not going to bother to rant anymore about this show....but if you haven't seen it, then please god don't. If you have...become all bitter and hateful towards a cartoon like I have. If you ike this show...well...I'm sorry to hear that >.> and if you scream the names of everyone around you constantly, and explaining what's going on.....even if I beg you not to. I will murder you. And jewel be damned, I'll kill you dead!

Find true love and explore how fragile emotions really are? And that even demons can learn to love...ok half demons? No, the writers aren't that talented, and that's still a lame cliche`. Is it to annoy the crap out of me and probably thousdands, if not millions of others who have seen this show? Not...quite...but...closer- Oh yeah! It's to find the SHIKON JEWEL!!!! Or whatever the hell it's called.
Yep, that's it.
The jewel breaks in the first episode, and it was somehow in Kagome's vagoo or something since the dumb broad falls in a well with no water in it...ever, and ends up on feudal japan. She breaks it after shooting her first SACRED ARROW! But that's after she meets Inuyasha and hilarity ensues...no it doesn't, a train wreck starts and it doesn't stop...ever. The entire point of these people going around fighting demons and crap are to get jewel shards...trust me, there's a LOT of them *BIG SPOILER* Naraku has like, 99% and could get the other 1% if he actually...tried, but he's too powerful to waste his time on WEAKLINGS AND FOOLS like that FOOLISH HALF-BREED INUYASHA! *ughs* oh yeah, the jewel is some sort of amazing powerful thing...what does this thing do? How the fuck should I know. It makes demons bigger, it makes humans stronger or something, or greedy I don't know, it brings the dead back to life, I think it brings statues to life, it makes weapons...something, who cares? What IS this thing? A jack of all trades? It also can be evil, if it's used for evil! But it's like, never used for good...I BLAME MANKIND FOR THIS! FOR THEY ARE ALLLLL EVIL! Oh wait, it's just Japan, well <insert racist joke and a skunk getting hit by a brick here>....I deserved that, thanks a lot you filthy <'nother brick>
...if you think I'm exaggerating, ask someone else about this show, ask them what they're doing. They're after this one villan that's too lazy to do anything but dick around in some random location that no one can ever find. There are no story arcs, cause they're all after the same objective...just with cute little spinoffs I guess.
"INUYASHA meets the Thunder Brothers"
"INUYASHA meets the Band of 7"
"INUYASHA meets the CAT Demons"
"INUYASHA goes to the ZOO"
"INUYASHA SUCKS MY DICK!!!!"
"INUYASHA has AIDs...thanks a lot Koga"
All of these story arcs feature the amazing, and coveted Shikon Jewel!
At least in DBZ they did shit -besides- just look for the dragonballs >.> sometimes time moved forward, but in this show it just stands still...every episode features at least one jewel shard in some way or another, save for a few filler episodes. The characters love to say what has happened, even after it happened, after someone else says it has happened...ex.
*Naraku blocks a WIND SCAR*
"FOOLISH HALF BREED INUYASHA, I, NARAKU have absorbed the souls of 1 bagjillion demons! Your TETSAIGA cannot defeat me! NARAKU!"
*Inuyasha growls*
"DAMN YOU NARAKU! You absorbed my TESAIGA'S WIND SCAR! You absorbed those demonic souls to get stronger!"
*Kagome whiiines*
"INUYASHA!!! Becareful! NARAKU absorbed the souls of those demons and is now a lot stronger, your WIND SCAR is of no use!"
*Miroku tries to be useful*
"I'll use my WIND TUNNEL INUYASHA! Now that NARAKU is too strong after absorbing the essence of those demons, the WIND SCAR from TETSAIGA is no use!!!"
*Just as the monk readies to take out his anal beads, er, take off the beads on his arm, Songo stops him after a bug buzzes by*
"Don't do it MIROKU! If you use your WIND TUNNEL on NARAKU after INUYASHA....
Ok, I'm done making an ass of myself...but that's how the show is. Just add in Shippo and probably the cute kitty thing that hangs around them. The episode would end with Naraku's head floating away with everyone screaming and -cursing- his name. Since that's better than shooting a -Super- Effective SACRED ARROW at him. Oh yeah, and it would show Kiyiko cutting herself...no? Oh, well she'd be walking and probably say something like, "I have to stop NARAKU....I have to...because....I...er...hmm..*is killed*...*revives* BRAINS! OMNOMNOM!"
*shivers* ok, I think I hate myself enough now, I'm not going to bother to rant anymore about this show....but if you haven't seen it, then please god don't. If you have...become all bitter and hateful towards a cartoon like I have. If you ike this show...well...I'm sorry to hear that >.> and if you scream the names of everyone around you constantly, and explaining what's going on.....even if I beg you not to. I will murder you. And jewel be damned, I'll kill you dead!

if you don't get it...don't worry about it... lol
I had the pleasure *cough* of watching the show subbed years ago, long before it was on Adult Swin. Before that I tortured myself with Fushigi Yuugi.
DEAR GOD WHYYYYYYYYYY IT'S THE SAME FUCKING SHIT
Do yourself a favor and watch Bleach.
but only like...136 episodes? Not cool D:
All it said was fuck everyone (which is a good start) and that it's DBZ for girls.
I like my version better
/fangirl-mockery XD
I dunno, it seemed like a good show at first honestly and I think it has it's moments, but they're too far and inbetween to really hold your attention. And the dumbest thing is that the show is some 200 something episodes long and it doesn't even finish itself! It eventually just fucking ends at some completely random ass moment. They never find all the jewel shards, they don't defeat Naraku, they don't resolve sweet fuck all, It Just Fucking ENDS. o.O;; What a complete fucking ripoff.... I'd be more disappointed, but I lost all real interest long ago.
Though the show has an 'ending?' Well that just makes me hate it even more, thanks for the spoilage D:
I used to watch this show like...years ago, back when it was 'new' now I'm just tired of Adult Swim always showing this bad...bad show, it has stopped making them money! I hope...that ending sucks though.
"We'll get Naraku next time!"
"The hell we will, screw you guys, I'm going home."
the show looked good in the first season, when it seemed like it was going to be over soon, then I stopped watching, and after nothing went ANYWHERE I said this is retarded, kill it with fire.
I say you deserve at least a factory of cookies for saying it like it is. but you forgot the necklace that can't come off that makes inuyasha fall on his face...more cheap humor, and more retardation...the only time that was funny is when it caused a 5 bajillion ton rock to land on his back...too bad it didn't kill him
"Sit boy!" OMG!! That's sooooo funny, makes me forget all about important things like plot...if only it was D:
and I was playing off your sarcassim XP come on people, it's the internet!
....but no boyfriend. D:
Yeah, that was one long-arse rant. <3 ya for it :P
