Inuyasha

[wildstriker]

Guess I'll take the honor ;) to create a thread about it because it seems that no one will create this..., even though the manga is already really long (and boring sometimes..., according to some fans), it's still on of my favorite manga.

Any good impression of the manga so far?, and some thoughts about new chapters maybe... (that'll keep running for at least another 100 chapters)

[Bea]

I liked it at first. It used to be one of my favorites. But then it just kept going downhill. Kagome gets captured. Inuyasha saves her. She gets captued again, but THIS time by a villian in a blue suit! Will he make it in time? Yes, but she has been injected by a fatal poison! *gasp* What WILL they do? Sorry, but that annoys the crap out of me. It was good, but it needs to end. Soon.

[Itachi4ever]

Don't know about other people but, this is the anime that got me hooked on anime so, its a fav. and will aways be in my top fav. I was disappointed at first for it leaving the t.v. but, it still good in Manga. So, I still tip my hat to Inuyasha and hope it has a good ending even if may be a sad one in the end.

[wildstriker]

With the strong fanbase, Inuyasha will surely run up 'till the ending of the manga :)

Hmm..., I just hope it'll be happy one though, since I've faithfully follow the entire manga for over 50 volumes.

[Ven]

50 Volumes?!?! Oh, wow...

I used to like this Anime, then it ended while not actually ending. Stupid...But, yeah. I hope
it ends soons and has a good ending.

[CheshireCat]

This was my gate-way manga, and it's a pretty common one too. But I just have to say that the same old thing got way to boring. I quit at about volume 20.

[wildstriker]

You should try to read up until the latest volume.

[Yux]

Meh I think they should have ended the Naraku part and done more individual character story lines and put in a new "villain" all naraku and little yokai is annoying -.- and they killed off the best character Kikyo :3 well i hope 1ce Naraku's beat it just doesn't end and they put something good in for a finale

[mizu-genkaku]

i agree it is sooo repeating the stuff..kagome get's kidnapped..she's saved by them crap..wahh..its sooo repetitive..


*shouts i looooove sesshoumaru!!*

btw..which fanbase do you like prefer..

inuyasha/kagome

sesshy/kagome

kouga/kagome

??

[J.T.]

I haven't read any chapter, I just wanted to ask would you recommend it to someone who likes humor&action packed manga?

[wildstriker]

Yes, but only If you're patient to read until...., 50 volume.

Well, in any case just give it a shot, you must have know how famous the mangaka past work right?

The cuurent chapter so intense right now :), wonder what's with Sesshoumaru left arm?, can't wait for next chapter....

[w3bz0r]

I've only recently started to get into Inuyasha (I recently finished the anime), and now I am moving to the manga. I know alot of people expect Inuyasha and Kagome to live happily ever after in the end, but something tells me that this is too "expected", and might not turn out that way. Like maybe once the Sacred Jewel is complete/purified/disappears, Kagome will be forced back to her era, or something like that. I too am one of the people that hopes they live happily ever after...it just seems too good to happen. We'll see what happens...

Also...since I have watched the whole anime series...am I missing out on alot of the manga if I start on chapter 356, or does the anime series cover most of those 356 chapters?

Edit: The manga ends on page 15 of chapter 356. My bad.

[iykagome]

Well the anime cover majority of it but still miss some key points but it ok for u to start form 355, u wont miss tha much since they repeat them later in the manga......i recently start reading the manga like 1 or 2 months ago from chapter 355 and it been awesome reading it. with the recent chapter out i wonder if sessy arm actually coming back permanently or wha but a two weeks wait b4 anyone find out...

[kviteseid]

i watched all the inuyasha animes few years ago but after a few years i started to miss it and started to read the manga but i just jumped into the manga cos i cba read it all .. doesnt look like ihave missed alot (started to read from ch 420

[wildstriker]

Main point that ppl should know If they're jumping to latest chapter:

......, how do I use spoiler tag again before listing it....?

[TraN]

Main point that ppl should know If they're jumping to latest chapter:

......, how do I use spoiler tag again before listing it....?

you can use spoiler by lala [/spoiler ] (without the spaces at end. )

I always hated the anime of inuyasha. but i like the manga alot :|
sesshomaru and rin are the coolest~~~~.
[spoiler]:O I can't believe kikyou died.. Nooo

[wildstriker]

Thanks for pointing out tran, anyway here's the main point happening in the story so far for those who've read it halfway, and don't feel like reading 'till the 500+ chapter:

-Kikyo's dead
-Kagura's dead
-Kanna's dead
-Naraku latest (and the only remaining one) detachment is Byakuya The Mirage
-Miraoku's capable of sucking poison without any pain now, but he'll still be consumed sooner or later by the Kazaana.
-Sango's Hiraikotsu is capable of even slicing Naraku now.
-Inuyasha Tessaiga get a lot (and I mean a LOT) of upgrades occasionally, the latest upgrade is Midaou Zangetsuha from Sesshoumaru.
-Sesshoumaru is so damn weak now after losing the Toukijin and Midou Zangetsuha.
-Inuyasha & Sesshoumaru more or less already in neutral state now.
-Naraku only need one more shard now to complete the Shikon no Tama, which is on Kohaku's neck.

[InuTessaiga]

Hi Inuyasha Fans!

I went through every episode from the anime but now I'm hooked up and don't have a concrete end!

I would like to know this:

Where does the manga of inuyasha start after last anime episode?

Thanks in advance!!

[w3bz0r]

The anime ends on page 15 of chapter *356* in the manga.

http://www.onemanga.com/Inuyasha/356/15/

There you go. :)

[sorceritza]

I love InuYasha (the anime/manga, not necessary the guy), but, to be honest, I got bored on chapter 430 or something and decided to get back to it later on. It's worth reading it.

And to answer to mizu-genkaku i like both Sesshy/Kagome and Kouga/Kagome pair. Inuyasha/Kagome is an annoying pair. Honestly

[CanineStarSirius]

Inuyasha's one of the first Manga that I read. I actually first read volume 12 out of the Library, and I thought Naraku was a girl at first (Which doesn't happen a lot, seeing that I don't think Sesshomaru looks feminine, and he's manlier now anyways), But I went on to the Anime and now to the Manga again.

Dispite it's length and the repetition, it's still my favorite. I never minded the repetition anyways. I like stuff that's long... it gives time to get attached to the characters. I love the plot and (most of) the Characters. Inuyasha(the series, not the character) holds a special place in my heart.

I can't wait until 518 comes out... I really want to know what's going to happen to Fluffy's left arm. Maybe he's getting arm lasers. Jk.

[w3bz0r]

Hmmm, chapter 518 was pretty interesting. Bakusaiga doesn't look especially amazing, but it sure got the job done! I wonder what is happening with Kagome...

[kyuukii]

well i think inuyasha is getting a bit too long- i first read it a year ago but i cant remeber most of the events now. if it gets any longer i think it'll lose its appeal.

[w3bz0r]

Yeah, it's a double-edged sword for me...for one, I would like to see a good, solid ending to the series that will give me closure. On the other hand, I look forward to new Inuyasha content, and it would be kind of depressing to know that it is over...

[poca_poca]

it was fun at first, one of my favourite manga. The girl fell in love with the boy, the boy confuse because she is the reincarnation from his ex girlfriend, evil step brother, the villains who is just keep coming back. But seriously i need a good happy ending for this manga

[wildstriker]

I'll take some of the spoiler back ><, Sesshoumaru is damn uber currently in the manga since Totosai said he had basically suprassed his father with the Bakusaiga (his latest sword) as the proof.

[CanineStarSirius]

I love the design for Bakusaiga, though. It's the type of sword that isn't so show-off but can kick butt like yeah.

...As for other stuff coming up for next week... I won't say anything. No spoilerific material for you.

(I love Freelance)

[Pffy108]

hi. I have read the manga up to chapter 418 and i have a question. read spoiler.
When Miroku drank the poison, did it make him not feel ANY pain, or just not feel the pain from sucking in yokai poison?

[CanineStarSirius]

hi. I have read the manga up to chapter 418 and i have a question. read spoiler.
When Miroku drank the poison, did it make him not feel ANY pain, or just not feel the pain from sucking in yokai poison?

Hm... I'm not too sure. It's been a while since I read that chapter.

But I think it's just the Shouki, since I think, that if, say, Sango decides to slap him for being perverted, he'd probably still feel it.

[Pffy108]

lol, yeah

[[NOONE]]

funny how the anime is so popular but so few people read the manga. did you see the OM ranking for Inuyasha?

[CanineStarSirius]

I did. It's sad... the Manga is so much better.

[Raijuu]

well finally catch up to the manga.... although i still think the anime was better in a way.... but who knows maybe im just getting tired of Naraku being alive for all this time....

[CanineStarSirius]

The Manga has Sesshomaru *spoiler* for more than 3 episodes, though.

I like the Action in the Anime, but I like the Manga story better... the Anime changed it...some parts, at least...I still love it, though.

[wildstriker]

Kohaku's....., dead....., finally....!

So all the shards now is complete, all that's left is only to defeat Naraku and retrieve it.

[Beney]

well that alll that are left if they didn't revive naraku.

[persing66]

Finally the Final battle is upon us, Sesshomaru and Inuyasha vs Naraku without Naraku running away I've been waiting for this for a couple of years now, it is going to be sweet

[Darkreaper70]

chap 530 is out

http://www.savefile.com/files/1195846

[wildstriker]

It's easier just to go the scanslator website since they provide DDL as well, file hosting websites are option for mostly those who cannot use torrent files, otherwise, it's just a hassle to download from it.

[Darkreaper70]

yes but this way you dont have to go to the scanlators site

im trying to help if you dont want me to post links ill stop

[wildstriker]

Nah, I'm in no place to told you what to do, just another plain suggestion to visit the scanslator site.

And so, after 530+ chapters, we finally go to the final battle of Inuyasha (or is it?, I sure hope so this time), seems cheesy since Naraku just transforming to a big black cloud and intend to consume all...., hopefully he won't die in just another 5 chapter after coming 530+ chapters for final battle.

[Rain-chan]

Nah, if Rumiko wants to drag it on then she'll drag it on... she has already done it with the 500+ chapters... maybe till chapter 550 just to get a rounded number?...:lol:... to be honest... I would be slightly disappointed if she ended the final battle so quickly after coming such a long way to this point.... hopefully it's not gonna be a cliched ending like some other long series...

... and Naraku becomes a spider and swallows Inuyasha and Kagome... typical...
Hope something interesting comes up in the next few chapters...

[wildstriker]

I wonder...., If she wanted to end it in 20+ next chapter, it's actually quite possible, but then again, since she's the highest paid mangaka in Japan right now, ending it so quickly soon would halt her income.... (and I think she said that she might retire after Inuyasha?, she have more then enough $$$ If she wanted to anyway).

[Tensa Zangetsu]

She need to kill Inuyasha...start another great manga like ranma was...and this time end it before it reaches ch.500!!!

[wildstriker]

But Inuyasha is still great! :D
.
...
.....or maybe not?

It's good on the first half though, but getting a little bit boring after 300+ chapters with little to almost no story progress. Hopefully this time for sure, a good ending after 500+ chapters.

And RT always start her manga greatly IMO. It just get a little bit laggy after a while.

[Rain-chan]

Yeah, you can easily skip a couple of volumes after around chapter 300 and pick it back up at 500 and still make sense of the story line.
Rumiko really need to finish Inuyasha off with a good ending or all the work in getting it to so long would be wasted... I actually don't mind if Inu dies in the end, if it would make it interesting...
Kagome would most probably get sent back to her own world... hope she doesn't reincarnate Inuyasha and everyone... that would be just -_-; lame......

[wildstriker]

Well, I do hope for a happy ending for all, but probably it won't happen since the Shikon Jewel ought to be sealed/destroyed, Kagome will most likely stay back at her time despite whatever that will happen to Inuyasha & Co in feudal time.

Though, I'd still be happy even, for some reason, they story isn't totally concluded (ie; cliffhanger ending) as long as Kagome & Inuyasha can still be together. :D

[Tensa Zangetsu]

The longer the author drags it out, the more she's ruining the already crumbling manga...

[Rain-chan]

That's why she needs a good ending to pull everything together again... and not something cliche. Knowing Rumiko's style, it's going to take her atleast another 10-20 chapters to finish (possibily longer).
Naraku will die of cause... and there's low chance that she'll keep Kagome in the edo era. I wonder how they're going to get rid of the shikon in the end....
If Inuyasha and Kagome are gonna be together either inu has to go to the future (which would cause a bit of a problem) or Kagome stays in the past (not likely) does that mean one/both of them are going to die?... hope not -.-;
And being a bit of a Sesshoumaru fan I don't want him to die either ^^;
But then if no one dies then it wouldn't really make a dramatic ending would it? -__-;;

[kat-meows]

yeah really, how is she going to end it without making it seem sappy, stupid, or boring? Maybe she should just kill everyone off in some situation where the shikon jewel explodes, and the evil and pureness inside mixes toghether, neutralizes each other, and in the explosion, it wipes out almost all the main characters. Then she could a chapter where it's years later, and the main characters that were left alive are just finishing telling the story of their lives and their friends to some villager kids. would that be an okay ending?

[Rain-chan]

... that's still a bit cliche... -_______-;

I guess the shinkon would have something to do with why there are no demons in the modern era (or why they are depleated in number/mixing themselves with humans). And she can't exactly go and change history (well she can, but it would be weired because it would cause a time-dymension paradox... i.e Kagome never been born and when to Edo in the first place... then everything wouldn't have happened etc.) I don't know... I don't seem to be able to think of a good ending for this manga... -____-;; Hope Rumiko does... (that's more important right? -_-; )

[kat-meows]

yeah, ur right. guess we'll just have to wait and see

[i_love_anime]

i think that it is repetative but i have read most of the manga of it and i wonder what happens next!!! i hope it is something diffrent

[Dark_jem]

seems like it's finally ending to me

[VV00d13]

Ey yo I got a question!
I'm following the Inuyasha anime, were does the manga books continue from were the anime shows ends?

[i_love_anime]

i really dunno i just started the manga from where it started which seemed a bit of but i really dunno

[Kiyone]

i really dunno i just started the manga from where it started which seemed a bit of but i really dunno

Huh????

Anyway, I hope InuYasha is finally ending. I read the manga every week and I'm pretty tired of it dragging on. I ca't wait to see what happens after they finally get the jewel.

Also, I though Kagome couldn't travel through the well without a shikon shard. In the graduation chapter she did it with out a problem.

[VV00d13]

but were shall I start reading if I have followed the anime shows? :P Cause when I start I fell like I'm experience everything again, I'm like that person that don't whant to read or se the same thing twice :P
for example in Hunter x Hunter you can start reading at chapter 195 or something if you've followed the anime, were does Inuyasha cut of from the storie toally....
I would appruciate it if someone could answer so I din't have to look from the begining :P

[Rain-chan]

I didn't watch the aime to the end so what happened in the last episoeds of Inuyasha? It might help if you briefly discribe it...

And regarding Kagme travelling through the well with out the shikon, I think it has more to do with the existence of the shikon rather than the fact that she has shards with her so she can go throught the well.

[wildstriker]

Inuyasha anime version ended halfway without any real ending at all.

It's the part where Inuyasha tried to use Shikon Shard in the Tessaiga to break through a youkai's stomach that can make them die with the acid. (sorry for the crappy discription...)

I can't say for sure which chapter is it, but precisely, it's not even 300 yet.... ><

[VV00d13]

I've soon wathced the anime only got like 50 episodes left.
Right now, were I am, they are fighting agains 7 people that have been brought to life again with shikon shards from Naraku.
Sessomaru has killed a little ugly guy that uses poison gas as wepon in the latest episode I've seen.


I've been peeking in the last episode (only to find in the manga) and as wildstriker says, Inuyasha is trying to use a shikon shard to cut through "something" (problaly stomach I hav'nt seen that :P) anyway, the shard makes Inuyasha alomst to get in contact with his demon part, case the shard is evil from Naraku. kagome runs forward and und hugs Inuyasha and "burns" or "hurt" her feet in the acid.
Mor or less thats were the anime ends

[wildstriker]

What you're currently watch is the Shichinintai arc (the zombie band of seven), and because OM itself doesn't have complete list of the chapters I can't really pinpoint which chapter it is for the anime last ep....

[rachel42]

just go to the earliest chapter of what OM has right now, i think its like, 320 something? not sure. and just go and start looking as to what chapter the manga picks up from the anime.
as for people who are up to date with the manga; how do you think the gang will even get out of Naraku's body if hes everywhere and theyre all drenched in shoukai? i honestly have no clue, and i hope that this doesnt last for another 50 chapters. buuut i do hope that theres some romance for Inuyasha and Kagome... thats all i care about haha

[Rain-chan]

Yeah, I don't think where your're up to in the anime has passed chapter 300 yet though... just go and check with the OM scans

As for the latest events on the manga... ^^; She really intends to drag it on doesn't she... A little romance is fine but I hope it doesn't end up sad... (kinda don't feel it's worth it after 500 old chapters and having a really sad ending... hum... donno...)

[rachel42]

omg yes, i hope it isnt a let down after all these years of reading and watching. but then again i hope it isnt cheesy and "too easy" of a victory for them

[VV00d13]

Ty for your help!
I've been lookin into it a bit to, and you're seem to be quite right.
around chapter 250-270 somewere the band of the seven Zombies is involved. Somewere around 280 it seems like they're fighting in a stomach with acid as in the anime just that it sems like the anime makes a total different store there from the manga.
But thanks for the tips! It will make my search alot easier ;P

[Naruto0145]

I like the manga still. To be honest I was all for Kikyo x Inuyasha but sadly thats not going to happen. I also wanted Kagura x Sesshoumaru but that also did not happen. None of my couples went my way except Sango x Miroku.

[Rain-chan]

I don't get why so many people dislike Kikyo :confused:... she was alright and I wouldn't mind either if she and Inuyasha ended up together but sadly that wasn't ment to be (I actually felt sad for their relationship when Naraku tricked them to think they have betrayed each other...)
As for Sesshoumaru... I'm a bit of a fan when it comes to kagome/sesshoumaru fanfics... but thats never gonna happen ^^ and it shouldn't or everything will be in a horrible mess. It should strickly stay Kagome/Inuyasha
A bit of romance is good... but please Rumiko! just pull off a good ending after it's been so long......

[Naruto0145]

Alot of people hate her I am obviously not one of them(Kikyo x Inuyasha fan here). Many people just saw her as an obstacle for Kagome x Inuyasha. People hated her because she was getting in the way.

[persing66]

Inuyasha is now a demon, i wonder how Kagome is going to save him this time, mabey admit her love for him, similar to the second movie. The only thing i'm not sure about is the fact that it seams Sesshomaru has been ignored for the last couple of chapters, I was really hoping it would take both Inuyasha AND Sesshomaru to kill Naraku

[Rain-chan]

Hum... decliration of love... it's gonna be cliche...
Maybe Sesshomaru would come int time and knock some sense into him...
I think It would require both the brothers to Defeat naraku since only Sesshoumaru's sword can stop him from cloning himself... ^^;

[Franckie]

It's good to see this series finally picking up again. Hopefully the matter with Naraku will come to an end because this guy has been around for far too long.

[Rain-chan]

Yeah, if there's a contest for the longest lasting vilan... he'll most likely to win it.

[lunasakura]

can sme1 tell me where i can watch the 1st epsoide of inyusha?!?!?!

[Rain-chan]

http://www.animea.net/download/219/InuYasha.html

Download there, they have all the Inuyasha episodes I think, as well as lots of other animes.

[Tekkaman Saber]

The uploaders usually follow a timetable when it come to fills each series takes a turn.
Also in the rules it does say that your not supposed to ask for fills or new chpaters.

[digitalanarch]

All the players are in place. The end is near I think. Soon we will be able to watch this in anime as they swore off producing more until the end came to pass. What's really good about this current situation is you cannot really predict anything. I am looking forward to the next release after the holidays.

<edit> yes your dragon is cute.

[momokashiri5]

this is a great manga if u really think about it. i mean even though their ending leave u with many questions, it was still pretty good. if u asked me inuyasha was good wit kagome from the beginning!!

[digitalanarch]

I doubt Rumiko will take the Jung approach to writing. I am certain we will get to see them going off into the sunset ...if there is a sunset to go off into. ;/

[Franckie]

Yeah, if there's a contest for the longest lasting, most boring, crappy vilan... he'll most likely to win it.

True. I hope to dear lord that Naraku is finally killed because this guy has waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too many lives. It's like a super-cat with more lives than nine.

[wildstriker]

Aren't we actually missing someone actually for the final battle....? (*cough*Koga*cough*)

[Rain-chan]

hum... true... and the new chapter... is it me or is the final battle starting to get a bit cliche?
-__________-;;
don't want to be mean but I actually hope someone dies in the end ^^; lol

[Rain-chan]

Wow... this thread got pushed back that far O.o...
You can't blame it though... Rumiko's dragging it on ever so slowly...
Looks like miroku is about to die... interesting... *secretly hoping for more characters to die - does evil dance*... other wise this story is getting too boring... ~~zzzzz

[wildstriker]

Yeah..., like how JKR killed half of the characters in the last book.

Well, anyway, back to it..., dunno what kind of twist will happen again, but Miroku dying, Inuyasha killing Rin, Sesshoumaru go h4xx0r and kill him along with Naraku certainly one of the thing I'd like to see.... :D

[Rain-chan]

Yay go Sesshoumaru! :lol: ... somehow I like him more than Inuyasha... *shrug* he seems cooler :D
But would definitly be an interesting ending to see... ^^

[persing66]

Rin and Sesshomaru are my favorite characters throughout the whole series I hope that either of them die, the only ones that I wouldn't mind seeing die in the right sercomstances would be Miroku, Sango, Jaken, Shippo. I am hoping however that Sesshomaru and Inuyasha both get to deliver the final strike on Naraku.

[kanachan]

I just wanna ask something, why does kikyou hate inuyasha so much? I mean, she knows that it was naraku and not inuyasha who hurt her in the past, right?

[Ryu]

She didnt know that at first, Miroku was the first to ever mention naraku.

[candiigurlii]

this was awsome at the start but got a bit boring, then good, then boring again.

[Ryu]

Thats the joys of Extremly long Series they kick off Great then its a roller coaster of decency.

I just want to know how it endfs to see what she works on next becaus the Inuyasha premise is getting abit old

[wildstriker]

Just hope that the final battle right now and the ending would redeem the series then.

[Ryu]

Yeah because next time I see whatever Naraku is now Ill be screaming ''Just kill the Mutha Fukker!'' at my screen. Still Rumikos a genious no denying that

[wildstriker]

Of course she is..., If not, she wouldn't be richest manga author now, would she?

[Ryu]

Good point dude, Even now Urusei Yatsura and Ranma are funny even though Im too young to get half to pop culture refrences.

[Lightz]

End of the series. I wonder how many more chapters are left.

[fridayzgirl]

can anyone tell me which chapter inuyasha tells kagome he would basically die for her? i cant remember ;-_-; sigh
:cookies:

[Felix]

w00t! I love Inuyasha

[rachel42]

can anyone tell me which chapter inuyasha tells kagome he would basically die for her? i cant remember ;-_-; sigh


im pretty sure that was right after Kikyo died. sooo around 470 something? or i may be totally off haha sorry

[Lightz]

Its good to see kagome got her powers back finally. That whole jewel curse was weird.

[darkblade123]

no..i dont see why its so popular, its very reptative, and yet people who insult pokemon for being too repetative love inuyasha?..the DP series of pokemon is anything but repetative, theyve cleaned things up a lot, i think its easily better than inuyasha now. it also annoys me how every male character is in love with kagome seconds after meeting her

[rachel42]

it also annoys me how every male character is in love with kagome seconds after meeting her

well i do agree with that, and personally i think Kikyo is way prettier than Kagome. shes also less annoying....
even though Inuyasha started my love for manga/anime, it is now on the very bottom of my favorites

[hyuugamasterdokuratsu]

well i do agree with that, and personally i think Kikyo is way prettier than Kagome. shes also less annoying....
even though Inuyasha started my love for manga/anime, it is now on the very bottom of my favorites

i hace to agree with you cause i can't stand kagome at all. she's annoying and not very strong. i lost respect for the manga when they killed kikyo.

[Twi]

Well it's about to end so may as well finish it.

[fridayzgirl]

im pretty sure that was right after Kikyo died. sooo around 470 something? or i may be totally off haha sorry

its all good, gets me closer to finding it :thumbup:

[<InsertNameHere>]

I don't think a lot of the characters in Inuyasha are very unique or striking or anything, noticing some cliche stuff, actually, cliche annoying, moody, stubborn characters, and the list goes on....
Not saying this just because im a fan, but sesshomaru is one of the few good characters, because it requires some depth to look into his personallity, wonderfully complicated and mysterious!

[Bertici236]

Hey all, i just finished watching the 167 eps of inuyasha(on a site) and im kinda sad that it ended here.(i mean come on! what kind a stupid ending is this? naraku isnt defeated and nothing special happened.i know that the manga is way further than the anime and im going to start reading it.however my question is.... : WILL THEY MAKE NEW EPISODES when the manga is finished?atm the last manga chapter is chapter 539-capture.if u can, plz answer my question. Thanks

[Lightz]

I dont think there will be anymore anime to the series. You should really start reading the magna. Inuyasha has been given alot more sword abilities.

[ZombiePanda]

but be prepared because the manga does drag on.. half the time you may find yourself thinking "God just end it already" but it still a relatively good story.

[Bertici236]

wow a new chapter: chapter 540 is released. however im at chapter 433 right now... I am really hoping that after they finish the manga they'll make new episodes!

[Lightz]

Latest chapter is annoying please just get to killing Naraku.

[digitalanarch]

Bertici many moons ago when they pulled the anime they said that upon Rumiko finishing it that they will do some episodes. I guess shes in her own groove about timing and such. But she also said that she would end it around the 550 mark. Sooo I guess it's just a matter of time.

Also, I am guessing here...but I think hoshi sama bites it bad with his power killing him, and may be key to helping sess and inu in defeating naraku and dying in the process. I loved that pervy monk.

[Sasuke07]

Is the manga of Inuyasha completed yet?

[rachel42]

nope still going. its near the end, but itll probably take Rumiko like 50 more chapters to finish it

[digitalanarch]

Come rach just think positive. These last few chapters are like painfully intense. I can taste the end coming.

hahaha alright ill go easy on her from now on. but its only like, one thing happens for every chapter. youd think shed want to put a lot more exciting stuff into the new chapters. but yes, i know the ending is near and im excited :thumbup:
.......there is that nice enough ;)

[Sasuke07]

Does Kagome ever take that necklace off of Inuyasha in the end or does he continue to where it?

[shrimpshot]

I thought 50 more chapters would be possible too. :D

[hyuugamasterdokuratsu]

i wonder what will happen after naraku is killed? any bets on inuyasha using the jewel to turn human and going with kagome while sesshomaru and rin wander around till rin is mature then sesshomaru will precide to have dozens of halfbreed kids?

[Sasuke07]

is the Manga finish yet, what happens in the end? I haven't finished the Anime series yet but I heard it end without an actual ending.

[SilverKunai]

The anime was canceled abruptly. I think it was something about the voice actors having problems with each other.

[Lightz]

I think it is clear that when the story ends the jewel will be purified. Human inuyasha and kagome live happily ever after as well as Sango and miroku.

[Ransatsu]

honestly this is pathetic
Inuyasha must have the sorryest crew in all of anime
they've been pwnd by Naraku coutless times
I mean, i can't remember the last time they fought on equal grounds with Naraku. most of the series has just featured them and thier feeble, pathetic atempts to destroy Naraku, as he leads them effortlessly on a wild goose chase. although they all seem a bit slow & lacking in intellegence, Miroku seems to be the smartest of the group, and thats not saying much. i'm interested to see how this sorry bunch will ever defeat a demon as strong as Naraku

[Twi]

Ouch

weeeell i do agree with you, just not on that harsh of a level. inuyasha started my love for anime/manga so i cant help but to continue reading the story. but as i go on reading other mangas, i realize how much crap inuyasha is haha.
im thinking with mostly everyone who reads inuyasha, like myself, are just the original gangsters that watched the anime and now want to see the true ending and finally see this thing put to rest; we dont necessarily LOVE to read this manga and cant wait for the next chapter to come out... but we still read it.
idk, thats just my opinion on the whole thing of me actually still reading this manga :o

ditto, I also started watching Inuyasha watched Inuyasha when it first aired and I won't be able to lay it to rest until I see the ending. don't get me wrong, I still get a bit nostalgic when I see Inuyasha after so long, but its not something I'd go back to watching on my daily TV schedule. and yeah compared to various other mangas, it isn't exactly on anybody's must read list(mine included)

[L Perfection]

I am hoping to get to read Inuyasha soon. Right now I am reading Claymore. Inuyasha does seem long though! :)

[marwari]

It is long, but its near its end, and predictable as the outcome may be, I'll still look forward to it (and you can always skip the parts the anime covers....around 200 chapters or so...).

[digitalanarch]

Wow got a at least two in the balance of life and death. Should be intense. I don't think she will let it be a happy sunshine ending. I applaud her efforts though. She will alway be my favorite manga person. Arg. I started back into anime because of her :P. I hope sunrise or whomever take it up for a short run series of completion once she finishes.

[inuyapig]

Inuyasha is what got me into anime/manga so have to tip my hat to it. I have just found this site A few days ago and that is because I was looking for inuyasha stuff.

[rachel42]

ha! funny you should say that cause that is exactly how i found this site a year ago :)

[gaaraXgunner]

inuyasha...very long...gave up.....

[Merrick]

I found this site while searching for Inuyasha online. I started reading the manga about two weeks ago and am already through all of the chapters that are posted. I had already watched every single anime episode. Inuyasha is what got me started on anime. I love this series and am really excited to see how the story finally ends.

[Sakura of the CrimsonSky]

Inuyasha sucks as much as Naruto. Why don't they end yet? Both are highly overrated with terrible storylines.

[Rain-chan]

Inuyasha did have a good storyline at the beginning... it's just that for the last 250 or so chapters it's been dragging... Rumiko must had some writer complex, she's usually really good with her stories... donno... but yeah, been too long... gave up, I think I'll just read the last chapter when it comes out :P

[batttie]

Sure Inuyasha is long but I don't think its crap, I think its just targeted at a certain age. How old is Inuyasha now like 10 yrs? I guess those who started reading it has matured since but the manga hasn't. I think its almost the same as it started out. I can't wait to see it end! I'm hoping it wont do the obvious ending of Inuyasha purifing the jewel by turning human like it was mentioned by Kykyo long ago but at the moment I don't see a really good ending other than that for it.

[fallingstarz]

Yeah, I don't think Inuyasha is crap either. It's pretty good actually, even though they're some unnecessary fillers. Now I just want Rumiko to give us a good ending. It better be!

[Twi]

Well the longer a series goes on the higher the expectation until the author can't keep up................... in most cases anyway, there are some execptions

[batttie]

yea thats very true. I know it seems like he keeps dragging out the ending. Do you think that they will finally kill Naraku? Or will he escape some how?

[Lightz]

I think this is finally the end.

[geminiprincess]

I guess the reason why its been dragging on so long is just coz the publishers want to make as much money form the series as they can. well, if they keep at it, Inuyasha's popularity might just drop. I agree with some people here, the beginning's exciting but at the middle the battles get draggy, and its always "the final decisive battle" but there's actually another battle coming up. Just like the latest chapter. gah! wern't they supposed to defeat naraku already!! hehe.. that's just my wish. but i think it does sound like its ending soon... in another... 50 chapters. heh. but this was the manga that got me started on manga! so i've a soft spot for it n i've been following faithfully since.

[rachel42]

yeah i dont know about the ending anymore, because the articles said that Inuyasha would be ending by chapter 550..... and the last chapter that came out was number 550. but depending how long the new twist of Naraku going after the village will last, i think itll end soon

[rachel42]

this is starting to piss me off.... >_>
wheeeen will it eeeeend?

[Airship Knight]

That Naraku never gives up does he

551


Why do I have this unsettling feeling that Kagome is going to shoot that arrow next issue, and its going to shatter the jewel and we're going to start from square one?

[batttie]

Its gotta be almost over, atleast naraku's part. After he dies hopefully there will be another 10 issues explaining what is gonna happen to all the characters.

[ZAraki]

uh...this needs to end now...this has turned into one of the worst mangas and series due to it's ridiculous length and repetitivity...even the shorter anime sucked...(inuyasha using an attack combined with kagome's arrow defeats everything it seems..)

[batttie]

I think inuyasha was pretty good, even the shorter anime, sad that it never finished :(

[KatanaSoul]

I never really followed Inuyasha aside from the occasional episode on Adult Swim, but I'm reading the last chapters just to see the damn thing end. Naraku needs to hurry up and bite the dust.

And Kagome's arrow is obviously bound for failsville.

[batttie]

wouldn't it just piss off a huge amount of people if it ended in say Kagomes arrow shatters the sacred jewel, naraku perishes and then the gang sets out to collect all the shards again? Then The End!

[rachel42]

AHHHHHHH! Naraku is dead!!!!! but then another twist.... >_>

[Soupnazi]

AHHHHHHH! Naraku is dead!!!!! but then another twist.... >_>

Did he actually die? I won't believe it... but I don't read the manga anymore...

[Twi]

Yes, he's dead but he's taking kagome with him
The series was a great one and the anime was nice too, and I know all of you enjiyed it cause you're still posting or checking the post. The only problem is they dragged out the battles and story too long. Now if the author made a new manga with a different storyline and protagonist you would probaly read it too.

[Soupnazi]

I'm actually just curious to see if people actually read this still...

I might look at another manga by this mangaka, but I probably wouldn't like it... honestly...

[rachel42]

Did he actually die? I won't believe it... but I don't read the manga anymore...

yep! the chapter title is even "Narakus Death" he kinda died in a non-exciting way though :/ sorta dissapointed

[around]

wow, the end is nearing, im unbeleavibly exited.

[Black Chocobo]

That was actually the first time in a long time I've been impressed by a chap of Inuyasha. It was actually decent.

[haku_zutsumi]

I was so surprised when Naraku FINALLY died :D! I'm nearly as "happy" as when Kikyou died! One of the few times when SOMETHING actually happened. I think Inuyasha just dragged on and on, without an end in sight... but i think i see the light at the end of the tunnel! :D WHOOT!

[fallingstarz]

Naraku finally died! Oh my, a long 10 years wait for his death :O Now I just hope Rumiko-san doesn't bring him back on the next chapter... anyway, I'm really looking forward to the ending of this series, xD

[Soupnazi]

So basically what could have happened on the 10th chapter was dragged on for ten years...

[rachel42]

Naraku finally died! Oh my, a long 10 years wait for his death :O Now I just hope Rumiko-san doesn't bring him back on the next chapter... anyway, I'm really looking forward to the ending of this series, xD

haha that would be sooo bad if she brought him back... but even more immortal now!
i pray to god she doesnt >_>

[Soupnazi]

I wouldn't be suprised at all if Naraku came back...

[sko99]

inuyasha is reaching its final stages...i think it was about time for the immortal and invincible naraku to die...

finally...after 10 yrs of reading the same thing over and over again...
something is different at last...

[ZAraki]

wouldn't it just piss off a huge amount of people if it ended in say Kagomes arrow shatters the sacred jewel, naraku perishes and then the gang sets out to collect all the shards again? Then The End!

well that just happened in 552...
Man this manga is garbage after 10 years...DAMN 10 years of this manga and they couldn't even make Naraku's death epic...not even a battle....as I said before Kagome's arrow(+the occasional inuyasha attack combined)seem to end everything./...:mad:

[wildstriker]

Naraku..., only last for 553 chapters? >_>

I'd have hoped he'll go at least to chapter 600...

[Aegis]

The arrow pierced the jewel, but the jewel itself didn't shatter. It simply purified the jewel, and ergo blew up Naraku until he's nothing but a pretty head and what's left of a spine... which really isn't saying much.

No, really, WHY must Naraku die for the slash on Kagome to take effect? Why not just outright kill her instead of this convoluted BS? That's been my problem with Naraku and the whole manga since the Shichinintai storyline; its utter BS that simply went nowhere.

[Blackeye]

It seemed to me that Naraku actually wanted to die. It was almost as he planned it (with the wish and everything, and saying that the Shikon no Tama would exist even if he were destroyed. He almost knew he were going to die).

But... for 552 chapters I've read the manga, and he just wants to die?
After all that powering up, his final plan was what?

I sure hope to see something grand in the next chapter.


Even if he wanted to die, why not just die the normal way? He would get to see Kikyo then right (Or he would probably go to hell and she to heaven?).

Also, Naraku died pretty... easily. He absorbed Onigumo so that he could not be purified that easily, in addition to using the full power of the complete Shikon no Tama. Then one shot later, he's down (though he took some beating from the others). Not even a struggle between light and darkness?

And considering that his soul was purified, I strongly believe that he will NOT "drag Kagome down to hell" as he has no soul to be in hell with (currently, Wikipedia is suggesting he's dragging her down to hell).

I had hoped for poor Onigumo to survive... as Naraku is one of my fav. Characters.
I don't know why, but I would be somewhat dissapointed if it turns out to be a "bad guy gone, everyone is happy" kind of ending. But I can't see Kagome or Inuyasha dying, and not really anyone else either (not that I HOPE anyone will die... having them around for hundreds of chapters and then BANG dead would be somewhat annoying, especially since Inuyashas personality was what got me to like the series from the start).

Well, it's been a long run. Lots of annoying "fillers" in the Manga and Anime, but still a good run. Hope it has a good ending (though with Naraku gone, it's pretty much over).

[orihime_princess]

hello people....im new but i want to ask if Inuyasha anime is finish...? and the manga is finish too? or the people who update the manga take so long to do that and for that reason the manga said ongoing?

[Aeirus]

Finally, a new outfit for Kagome! (It's about time!) I hope she gets to keep this one. She looks way more mature and sophisticated in it. Oddly enough, I'm hoping for a lot of drama and perhaps angst in the next issue(s).

And what is this? A cliffhanger ending!?!? I can't wait for the next upload!

Does anyone know when it'll be? Next week perhaps? The suspense is killing me!! @__@;;

[Rosa]

So it doesn't end here?

I hope there's more, everything is so... misty.
Nothing's clear about what's going on.
I mean, what's happening?

Will Inuyasha get captured in hell, never able to escape? (oooh yesyesyes, please! Such an annoying mutt as he is, he diserves this kind of ending.)

Will Sesshoumaru-sama finally marry me? (I hope so, lol!)

Will Kagome be able to get her grades back to normal, proving that she isn't as dumb as everyone has been grown to think?

I want 554.
I want it so badly.

Please? ^^`

[wildstriker]

Apparently, Kagome lives..., so what's really Naraku wished for...?

[Blackeye]

Apparently, Kagome lives..., so what's really Naraku wished for...?

No idea.
Has to be some really epic wish...

Because:
1. As stated, Naraku could have killed Kagome if he wished to.
2. Without Kagome, Team Inuyasha would fail (Naraku could only get killed by the light anyway).
3. Naraku had planned to die for this wish to come true (Re-read the last 5-7 chapters a few times... he intended to get shot above the well all along, with the "I won't let you shoot... not yet", and then falling purposely close to the well)

Still find it a bit strange that Naraku made a plan involving his own death. And if the Shikon no Tama fear Kagome that much... wouldn't it just kill her outright? (would have been a somewhat bad story then though...)

For Naraku to die that easily for some wish...
I'm pretty anxious to read the next chapter.

[Fae_riechyld]

I just started watching InuYasha about a year ago because of my mom, (who's a grandma to my kids and can't sleep at night)and had been watching all the eps. online. Since then I found this site for the manga and right now I really want to know what happens! If I were Kagome I wouldn't even of bothered going to school, maybe just going back to say hi to everyone. Since I'm a hopeless romantic I hope her and Inu can find a way to stay together.
I know I'm pretty sappy, but I'm glad Naraku is finally gone I was getting pretty sick of him, I figured they'ed get a new villian or something after awhile.

[Valkyrie]

I just read the manga and I am totally think that Kagome forgot everything but it is just a hypothesis. so who knows... what does everyone think of the new chapter

[rachel42]

dear lord, this is gonna go on for another 50 chapters... i can feel it >_>

[rzsiftyxoq]

50 chapters? try like 100.

[Valkyrie]

Oh yeah it is quite probably but I might say that I am thanking the artist here when say thank god naraku is already dead and if possible another enemy or enemies would be good.

[Soupnazi]

Oh god... is Inuyasha going to continue on? O.o

[Black Chocobo]

lolz Naraku is dead but now the Shikon no Tama is now the enemy. Get ready to set off on another epic journey. >_>

[Soupnazi]

It's the end of the world as we know it!

That pretty much sums up this news. The author of Inuyasha will never learn...

[AMemoryThatFaded]

It kind of looked to me like Kagome forgot everything as well. If that did happen then this series will probably go on for a little longer but hopefully not 50 more chapters!

I'm glad Naraku's dead but it wasn't the kind of battle I thought it would be. They've been fighting this enemy for so long that I thought the fight would be an epic one but it was a bit disappointing. After over 500 chapters of fighting with their biggest enemy, he comes down so easily? It was a bit of a letdown but I am glad that he's gone.

I can't wait for next chapter though! I really like Kagome's new school uniform, it's kind of cute!

[fallingstarz]

It kind of looked to me like Kagome forgot everything as well. If that did happen then this series will probably go on for a little longer but hopefully not 50 more chapters!

Ah... I don't know what to say about the new chapter. But the possibility to drag on again is high... -.- The look kagome has on her seems kinda dazed.. maybe she really has forgotten everything :O
With the bone eater well gone, I wonder how this is going to end... Whatever it is, I want Inuyasha and Kagome to be togetherrrrr!!!

[AMemoryThatFaded]

I want InuYasha and Kagome together as well. The whole series has been with the two of them trying to defeat Naraku together and it would be too sad if they didn't at least end the manga together.

Even if they don't become a couple, they should still at least be together even if it's as friends. I really hope it doesn't drag on too much longer but it will :>.<:

[Mican]

This manga sucks hard...

[geminiprincess]

FINALLY something is happening. i hope this is the last twist!

im so glad miroku is'nt cursed anymore, now he and sango can live happily ever after. :) haha.. so now we'll just need to see what happens to kagome and everyone's fav inu.

[kagome_twin13]

.The manga is already pretty close to being done. Naraku is dead.... that was the goal the entire time was to kill him and collect the jewel shards. Now the jewel is whole. Now all they have to do is save kagome from the medou. Which I belive casted her into her own hell. Just incase no one cought what is going on, the jewel's wish was to get rid of Kagome. That why inuyasha believes the jewel won't let her live in peace. So she is not in her own world. Inuyasha will most likely save her. Oh and I think the only reason Kagome looked like that was because she didn't know what was going on. I wouldn't if i was her.

[Aegis]

Yes, Naraku is gone, the jewel is whole, Kagome is sent into some... thing... from Naraku's wish... and... and... really, the manga just can't end any sooner. Yes, they addressed the issue with Kagome not being killed off right away, but it still looks too convoluted to be taken seriously.

[Blackeye]

I agree.

If the wish is anything like "separating Kagome and Inyasha" as many believe then... why not just kill Kagome? That's a pretty effective way to separate people (using Narakus logic).
Same goes for anything like "the Shikon no Tama fears Kagome", as it shouldn't really need to fear her if she's dead.

If they manage to "get out of" the wish... then Narakus death was in vain. Considering Naraku never planned to be alive when the wish came true, he had to be pretty damn certain that the wish would come true, right?

But it still makes no sense to me why he had to DIE in order for the wish to take effect. Another thing that has been bothering me for a while is... if it's a "wish", why did he have to make all the preparations himself? The meidou and everything was made by him (or Byakuya to be more precise) so where is the "wish"?
If you were granted any wish and you would, for instance, wish for the biggest cookie ever made... wouldn't you be pretty disappointed if you hade to get all the ingredients, and make the Cookie yourself?

And by the way, don't get me wrong. I don't want to see Kagome dead or anything... I'm just hoping for an ending that makes sense. ;)

[Aegis]

Sense? Like when Naraku trapped the Inu gang in that rock monster's stomach while totally not accounting for Kagome's spiritual powers? Like when he allowed the baby to roam free and nearly get himself KILLED in the process for the sake of getting a new and improved body? That kind of sense? :P Man, I miss the days when Naraku was actually cool and clever.

I really do hope Takahashi surprises us, just like she did for a while when she was concentrating on Seshoumaru, or when she revealed that the Tenseiga was a discarded part of the Tessaiga. She could've gone places with those ideas...

[Franckie]

This manga sucks hard...

Because the mangaka refused to kill Naraku when the dude passed his expiration date a long, long, long time ago. I haven't been this interested in the manga ever since the Shichinintai Arc.

[rachel42]

i dont even remember that arc >_>
...thats bad

[HyperNova]

L-A-M-E!!!

So what do you say? Another 500+ chapters of Inuyasha and company trying to find kagome? Please kill me now. I may be going a little overboard but I am not liking the direction this is heading in.

I didn't expect this to be the last chapter (but I did expect it to be more final) and I didn't expect it to just end happily ever after, but that was just lame. Maybe it won't seem as bad next week after an explanation but I just don't see any good coming of this. I would have rather had Kagome die than this.


edit: Also if a small human girl can survive the meidou then that is pretty lame.

[Aegis]

i dont even remember that arc >_>
...thats bad

Heh. I don't blame you.

The Shichinintai Arc is the part of the story which Naraku, having had his 'work-in-progress' body blown apart by Inuyasha and Seshoumaru, resurrected seven mercenaries to more or less keep everyone else at bay while trying to recover and rebuild himself under Mount Hakurei. This was the last truly good arc in the series, as the Shichinintai themselves were very tough opponents to deal with, especially their leader, Bankotsu (depsite the fact that he comes across as a wee bit stupid), and Naraku was truly manipulative in using the monk, Hakushin, and his shame to hide within a place that no one else would've thought to find him, and that is within a mountain protected by a holy barrier. The Shichinintai themselves were a nice mix of personalities, especially Jakotsu, the flaming homosexual of the band who had a serious crush on Inuyasha (while also calling Miroku sexy *shudder*), and Suikotsu, the normally good and friendly doctor with a second, evil personality.

After that, they kill off the Shichinitai, Naraku returns, drops Kikyo off a cliff, baby makes an appearance along with Hakudoshi... and Inu gang fights stupid girl and a demon chicken... yeah, things gone WAY downhill after that arc, with only a few good spots here and there.
