I have my new computer up and running. It will be much easier to do stuff now, construct more elaborate posts, stuff in general etc. Though I'll still be using my phone for live episode discussion threads for convenience purposes.

Yes she is great! I thought it was because Kagome and Inuyasha were bound by the red thread of fate or something, they were naturally drawn to each other. There is even at least one ED with that in it. Though the Shikon Jewel may have had something to do with it, too. Well, the time in the past and time in the future seemed to pass concurrently. If Kagome left the past for 3 days to stay in the present, she was only gone for 3 days. So it really was like traveling between worlds more than it was traveling between time. She had her bicycle but it was treated as an oddity and no one really freaked out about it. I think Miroku was even able to ride it? Lol. I believe the characters just thought her school uniform was some kind of short kimono. It was that scene with the bandits in like the first or second episode. She brought instant ramen and other modern snacks but just gave them to Inuyasha and her other friends. She had her school books but no one really ever tried to steal them or anything. It just... wasn't a thing. But then you had that Noh Mask. It was sealed and stayed sealed and locked up until present day. So this means Naraku or anyone else never found that shikon piece it had. But, it was defeated in the present and then its shikon piece was brought back to the feudal era. Not sure if that causes a paradox or not. But yes, maybe whatever happened was what was going to happen anyway, sort of like the Harry Potter time travel. But either way, it just... was not a concern and not a thing at all in the original series, this idea of changing history. So it seems odd to throw that in with this series. It makes sense for Sesshomaru but kind of doesn't, since he had a lot of character development over the course of the original series. It doesn't really make sense for him to abandon his children willingly with how he was when we last saw him. But yes the excuse could be made more for him than the others. Well I believe Kagome's mother or maybe it was Sota or Grandpa, asked Moroha to say hi to Kagome for them or something which is when she said "ok but I don't really know her at all." Then we saw Kagome was trapped inside the Tree of Ages for some reason. Maybe another conversation like that will happen when they all meet up. Setsuna lost her memories after all so there's no reason she would ask about Sesshomaru or anyone else. But it seems pretty dumb that the demon slayers didn't know Setsuna was a half-demon and couldn't tell Moroha's obvious lineage when they first ran into her.

I really don't know where you guys are getting your information from. Inuyasha isn't 200 years old and doesn't age slower because he's a half-demon. That is nonsense from one of the movies, which of course, isn't canon. Even the wiki has this screwed up. For some reason it is treating that 3rd movie like it is canon. That movie was good and it was good fan service, but it's not canon. Human characters wouldn't age slower either, of course. Here are the ages of the characters from Takahashi - Many of the fan letters I receive ask the question “How old are Inuyasha and the other characters?” Some fans make guesses. The character with the greatest range is Miroku, with guesses ranging from the late teens to late twenties… I basically think it's all right for the readers to view the characters as whatever age they see fit, but since so many people ask this, I'll answer with the ages I have in my head as I work. It is clearly stated that Kagome's age is 15, so for balance, Sango is about 15 or 16, and Miroku about 17, 18. I think of Kikyo as having died at about age 17… Demons such as Shippo, Sesshomaru and Koga live anywhere from tens to hundreds of years, so I'll leave it up to the readers to decide. Inuyasha is a half-demon—and was sealed away for 50 years—so I'm not sure how to figure his age out. But if he was sealed away for 50 years, then… Emotionally, I'd say he's about the human equivalent of 15 years old, the same as Kagome. So there you have it. If you see this, tell all your friends in your class! Now goodbye, everyone! Setsuna, Moroha, and Towa all clearly aged at the same human rate, as the human characters around them, such as Kohaku, Hisui (Miroku and Sango's son,) and Sota are the age you would expect them to be for the time that has passed. What makes less sense are Kaede and Grandpa Higurashi all being alive and looking exactly the same! And Inuyasha doesn't turn human under a full moon. He turns human under a new moon, or no moon. It's when you can't see the moon at all. It's the complete opposite of a full moon. I don't recall if anything happened specifically during a full moon in the series. I would not try to apply the real world science of genetics to demons and half-demons in the world of InuYasha/Yashahime. As for characters being underage and whatnot. For me, as has mentioned, they are fictional drawn characters. And of course, most characters that are supposed to be in their teens look like twenty-somethings, such was the case for Bleach. Only if a character looks "too young," like some of the MHA characters do for me (Uraraka and Tsuyu look young, plus Tsuyu is off-model, Momo and Nejire don't look so young and bright eyed,) would I veer off of seeing them in that way. But that can be subjective. Unless of course if the character looks like or is literally a child. When I saw "Age 14" for Towa, I was like... GOD DAMN IT. LOL. Of course, Kagome had only just turned 15 when the original series started hahaha. As for Japanese consent laws, as I understand it, it depends on where in Japan it is, and some laws may supersede others, and it still wouldn't be considered acceptable for an adult to bang a 13 or 14 year old. But, I am not going to look that up and have it in my search history for my ISP and the authorities to see. I will leave that to others. Although the funny thing is, unless someone actually did something with a minor, the would get a slap on the wrist, like Kenshin's author Watsuki did. He still had child porn, though. Hopefully they were just pictures being taken and not worse going on in the stuff he had. Some other mangaka that actually did stuff with a minor recently got in big trouble, and had his manga canceled. I don't remember who the author was or what the series was. But if you get in trouble for drugs, you get blacklisted and erased Stalin-style, like what happened to that actor from the Yakuza games that was doing coke. Talk about messed up priorities!

I'm not sure why no one replied to this thread for the first few weeks the show was on but all of a sudden decided to post now. I also saw this thread was made for the show's announcement, so for both of those reasons is why I made a separate thread. But if we are going to use this thread after all (well after show has already started airing,) I guess I will put my posts over here too. I'll put the first two under spoiler markers for spacing reasons. Ep 1 - Ep 2 - Ep 3 - LOL Moroha says that sword is a fake! A spirit sword... nice. Kagome's mom says looks "just like Kagome," but she looks just like Inuyasha, to me. Though maybe she does have some features of Kagome, now that you mention it. Possessed by the root head thing, right? Just like that?! But at least we get to see more of what these two can do. Rite of Courage and Cowardice. I've never heard of lions doing this. Maybe Kaede is referring to mountain lions. Even still, I've never heard of that. That is pretty lame if Sesshomaru just booted his kids like that. And Kaede said he picked up his newborn twins from this village. So they born to a woman who lived in the village. I really hope it wasn't Rin that was the mother, because that means we've got a Woody Allen situation on our hands. How could the demon slayers not know Setsuna is a half-demon? Any decent half-demon should be able to tell that. Uuhhh I don't think all half-demons have a pearl. Inuyasha specifically had one to be able to access his father's grave. Maybe Moroha just thinks that is the case. But I have no idea what is the deal with pearls these three girls have. There's Sota's wife. Moe. I can't remember if that is what girl was called he went on the date with when he was a little kid. Setsuna can't sleep at all? Or have dreams? Really? Even if she's a half demon I don't see how that would work. You HAVE to sleep some time! And of course this dream butterfly also took her memories away. Ep 4 - Has anyone figured out what is going on in that return from commercial break sequence with Towa riding the bicycle in place and then Buyo and Kilala get started for some reason? Setsuna looks good in that dress. Oh god, Moroha doesn't know Kagome at all? It really annoys me that none of these girls know their real parents. Sota is dealing well with giving up the daughter he raised for 10 years. Probably putting on a strong front for Towa. And yeah, this day was bound to come eventually. LOL Moroha actually likes the gift from grandpa. Backpack just like Kagome's and crammed with more stuff than even Kagome's was! I like the streak of gray they added to Kagome's mom's hair. Again, worrying about changing history was never a thing in the old show. I don't know why it is now. This damn history text book is being treated like the sports almanac from Back to the Future. Oh god fucking Kikyo-- no, that's the Tree of Ages taken on her form to communicate? But I still would rather have not seen Kikyo again. She caused so much trouble and annoyance in the original series. Plus, let her rest in peace! What? What and what? If there was another great demon like Inuyasha and Sesshomaru's father, what was he doing in the original series when Naraku was wreaking havoc? And if he is defeated then Sesshomaru will emerge? If Sesshomaru is defeated then Kirinmaru will emerge? Both have to be defeated at the same time? That makes no sense. I don't know if we can trust this tree! UUUGGGHHH Kagome is asleep stuck in the fucking tree for some reason. And there is what is probably the Dream Butterfly, on whatever plane of existence this is. And Sesshomaru is there, too? What is going on here? I want answers damn it! And going by next episode preview it looks like we won't be learning the answers any time soon. Looks like random demon of the week. But Miroku is going to show up? In the preview, it looks like we finally see Moroha go into demon killer mode. She put the lip stick on and her eyes changed to gold like Inuyasha's. And she looks vicious! Moroha is a fun character. Her personality isn't exactly like Inuyasha's after all, since he was more "serious" than this and was usually the one getting bothered by other characters acting more silly lol. Moroha may have the best personality out of the three girls.

I saw that, but it was dead. No one replied to it after the show started. If a thread for the series had already been made, I would expect it to be bumped, or a new one made and active after the series premiered. And it was a thread for the announcement. But since it seems people all of a sudden decided to post there now, guess I will go to that one. Still don't know why no one posted there after the first few weeks of the show being on. I guess a lot of the major Inuyasha fans aren't here anymore, and the people who are aren't such big fans anymore.

That's okay none of us are athletic enough to dodge them either, Tanjiro.

That old man has so much better cardio than Tanjiro hahaha.

Urokodaki is an asshole.

I love Nezuko's grunting haha.

Headbutting actually stunned the demon's head hahaha. Hard headed lmao.

Nezuko kicked his head off lmao.

Hey this thread isn't pinned! Is my demon kid sister turning into a mole now? Petting her like a dog lmao. Michelle Ruff as random villager.

That was fucking hilarious!

It makes sense he was reanimated. Since he had the black eyes. Yeah those weather powers sound hax as fuck. They would have to have wind, water, and lightning chakra natures? The chakra natures were obviously a retcon, but still. Ah so that is why we saw the white snake. Reanimated by Orochimaru and Kabuto.

Wow made them forget. Somehow that doesn't fuck with their canon history lmao.

No one taught these kids first aid?

But this is bad even for this show lol.

Man really fucking with Naruto's backstory here. Making this random undead brat his first friend lmao.

Shikamaru is really able to do that jutsu to that extent at this age? And just how pathetic are these Anbu?! They got out of it. But still lol.

Yeah, StarPanda shouldn't have put that Zabuza gif in the OP lol. Got my hopes up.

Why are we still going with this flashback if the situation is all but dealt with in the present?

But the problem is you can't have everything be related to fire or heat and have it do everything. It doesn't make sense. Naruto's chakra and Bleach's spiritual energy are a lot more versatile. They should have at least said it was holy healing flames or something, or given a better explanation than what was given.

We get three nonsense powers back to back. Sho time stop, Shinra's counter to that ability, and this stupid fire healing that works because it takes the form of the medical snake symbol.

I don't think that's what doctors and nurses are supposed to wear lol.

Did Haumea cause that sword impalement to happen or did what she said happen is what actually happened? She stops powers. No, interferes with someone's nervous system? It would have been funny if her power was something that affected the mind. But Arthur is so dumb it was useless on him because his brain is already fried.
