InuYasha

[Sango-chan]

Yes i think Inuyasha is a great anime because the char. Inuyasha, Kagome, Sango, Miroku, and Shippo are demon slayers. which right their seems preety christian. The only thing I don't like about is the time. 12:30 pm! please send what YOU think about it.

 

[Qyöt27]

Do you mean 12:30 as in just after noon, or just after midnight?

If you mean just after midnight, then the time wouldn't bother me, since I usually stay up til 1 or 2. But on the same token, I'm usually wrapped up in doing something online at the time, so I usually don't catch it. Besides, I'd rather watch it on DVD.

It's on in the evening, so unless she lives in China or somewhere over there, she probably means 30 minutes after midnight.

Yep. DVDs rule. I only wish they would put more than 3 episodes per disc. I mean the series is at least 150 episodes long. (I searched LimeWire for InuYasha music vids and i remember seeing "InuYasha - 152")

Speaking of which, exactly how long is InuYahsa? Has it been completed or is it still ongoing?

Yeah, I know it's on at night where I am, but in another thread she said she lives in Japan, so I wanted to get that clarified, seeing as how she said 12:30 PM, not 12:30 AM.

It's still on, I think. It might have only one season left though (and who really knows when it comes to seasons in Japan? The series run year-round). There are three movies, but only two have been released (once again, in Japan). At least, I haven't heard anything about the third being released yet, so I'm assuming it hasn't been. I think Takahashi has also decided to stop the manga as well, considering it's been running since '96 (which means that the series would have a lot more to pull from, but probably won't).

 

[Hitokiri Shadow]

Okay. I didn't mean to argue about the 12:30 thing. I probably shouldnt have said anything about it in the first place. Too late now, eh?


Thanks for the info. Do you have any idea what episode its up too or how many volumes of manga there are?

I have absolutely no idea. Last time I checked, the episodes were in the 140 range (in Japanese, the English is only into the 3rd season I think, out of the 5 or 6 that there are), but as for the manga, I've no clue whatsoever.

Ranma ½ ran in Shounen Sunday from '87 to around '94 or '95, and there's some 38 or so volumes of that (and still getting translated into English, I might add), so I could only guess InuYasha has around the same number, since it's been around for eight years in Japan so far. The translation to English won't stop for probably four years after it stops running in Japan, given how Viz works to get it's manga out (over a year and a half between Eva vol.7 and vol.8, for example). Add in the second editions that Viz is starting to put out now, and InuYasha's not going to reach it's end in English for a long time.

 

[Hitokiri Shadow]

Thanks.

the anime is up to volume 17 (eps 52-54, i think) in the anime and vol. 17 for the manga.

Rumiko Takahashi sure seems to like to write long series, huh?

 

[Marth]

I've heard that InuYasha has a lot more episodes than that too.

 

[Blessed-one]

i heard it's going to end in Sep over in Japan.
Inuyasha's a nice anime, but it drags on so long!

 

[Sango-chan]

Yeah i own like the whole first season on the dvd. And yeah the series are ending in Sept. (Finally) but sadly i wont be able to see that cause i moving back to the Us like in June so yeah

 

[PuppyforChrist]

I think they show it in the US Sango. On Adult Swim I think. I'm not sure if they show it anymore. I'll have to check the TV listings.

 

[Sango-chan]

Really cool cause i never knew they showed it wow now i have something to look forword to!!

 

[Qyöt27]

Of course, the American release of Inuyasha is only up to the third season, so there's still a good three or more years before all of it gets over here.

 

[Blessed-one]

yep, especially when they keep rerunning the episodes.. annoying uh?

 

[Susan]

Yeah, I think it's still on here in the US. I'm not very familiar with it, so. . .*shrugs*

 

[Sango-chan]

ok um.. only the thrid season? oh man.

 

[unnumbered son]

I like the show and the christian meaning behind it and I dont care about the time

 

[Hitokiri Shadow]

what Christian meaning?

 

[Starstreak M86]

what Christian meaning?

Seriously...

Well, it does have alot of Buddhism in it, and some Buddhist principles are similar to Christian principles.

I guess I could understand the confusion.

 

[Hitokiri Shadow]

Yeah, I can see Inu-Yasha containing Christian morals.
