This anime show was entertaining and fun for the most part that kept me watching and even getting the entire series. HOWEVER, like all good anime shows, there were characters that made it painful, as well as drag the show to it's not so wonderful ending...WARNING, THE FOLLOWING CONTAINS SPOILER(S). YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.For those who know the show or don't, here's a quick recap: Teenage girl stumbles onto magical well. Teenage girl gets dragged into well by evil demon. Teenage girl gets dragged into feudal japan and thus begins her adventure with a half demon/half human, a demon slayer, a monk and a demon child in gathering a sacred jewel shard scattered across the land. This is so it doesn't fall into evil hands like the ever bothering and never dying demon Naraku.It's pretty cool and very entertaining. But as i mentioned before there were characters that made the show often times not fun and just annoying where you wanted it to end.So there's the character Kikyo that made it to the top of the, 'i-hate-this-character-why-won't-he/she-die-already!?', list. The problem with kikyo is that she's a dead priestess who, in the past life, loved the half human/half demon and now wants him dead yet still claims she loves him. ...not the kind of character that makes sense, since she's always switching sides and constantly disrupts the flow of an episode she's in. There's also Kagome, the teenage girl who stumbles in the well. i mean, she is the reincarnation of kikyo in the present life, with all the powers of a priestess....yet she doesn't have the 'stamina' to be headstrong. always the damsel-in-distress, and can i say she might have a slight amnesia problem cause folks, she constantly screams/shouts 'INUYASHA'!!! i mean either she needs his help or wants attention that makes the viewer get a headache. I can go on and on about other characters but the main characters i felt that made the show drag to it's not so great finish were these two. Though in the manga kikyo dies, the director/creator felt it necessary to keep the dead priestess alive in this show for some unknown reason...and kagome? come on, you'd at least think she'd grow up.NOW, by now you're probably not thrilled to watch the show. BUT WATCH IT!! it's very fun with it's other characters that put the well-earned effort into making this show fun. Sesshomaru, Miroku, Sango, Koga, even Inuyasha make the series and the films worth the annoyance of two characters. My opinion, the show gets 8/10 cause of the two characters that made it miss out 10/10. But hey, maybe you'd find the characters i don't like enjoyable. it's all up 2u in the end, so watch and judge for yourself.

Well in the beginning it's a pretty cool show...then he gets the tesusaiga and it pretty much goes down hill from there don't get me wrong the episode where he gets it is great and Miroku is an awesome character it's just after a while Inuyasha quits using his claws (his coolest weapons) he runs slower, then he learns how to use the wind scar and thats all he ever freaking does, then it gets even worse because the whole story starts revolving around kagome and her little love life with inuyasha and her competition with kikyo for him (or whatever i haven't watched this show in a long time) so much to the point that i just quit watching so it starts off strong then it just starts sucking

Well I think it's actually a pretty good show. Original concept, and I like the characters.One thing I do think though is that it dragged on too long, a lot of things did. InuYasha should have forgotten Kikyo early on into the series, Kikyo should have died early on and stayed dead, and there were too many filler episodes with the same battle sequences. Some of the characters just get tiresome as well.The whole Kikyo thing.. Blablabla, give me a break. I actually prefer Kikyo over Kagome but for one, she's way too old for InuYasha. He acts like he's 16ish whereas she's about 23. Another thing, well, would they just let her be? It's been fifty years, he has Kagome now. To what purpose she was brought back I have no clue. It might have been to cause some type of confusion in Kagome and InuYasha's romance, but it didn't work. Episode 48, where InuYasha chooses Kikyo, sort of changed my idea of the whole series. I was madly in love with it until then.. when I started to just find it all a bit tiresome.The search for the sacred jewel shards definitely goes on far longer than it should. But I guess they just had no ideas of what to do after? They should have just ended the series, instead of just cutting it off randomly and leaving so many people wondering what eventually happens. There are a lot of filler episodes that make you feel as though you've wasted half an hour. Some of the antics by the characters (eg, Kagome's "sit", Miroku's obsession with women, Naraku in general) also dragged on far too long.I agree with the people who say to only watch about half of them, they just get a bit annoying after a while. There are a lot of good things (that I won't name.. I don't feel like typing much more), those are just the bad ones. I appreciate this series very much and it will always hold a place in my heart (it was the first anime I really loved, that's why).I still love the show, and watch it a lot. Those are just what I've noticed in this while...

I honestly don't see what is so great about "Inuyasha": While at the beginning the plot showed some potential, it turned boring pretty quickly: In a similar way than "Naruto" or "Bleach" what kills this series is the immense amount of pointless filler chapters which only serve to unnecessarily stretch the plot until it the series ran completely out of steam, starting going nowhere with Inuyasha and co. trying to find Naraku and the Shikon Jewel, something that is nice at all, but after 90 episodes of the same thing it becomes incredibly tedious and irritating.1.5/10
