Review: "Will you bear my child?" or "Get your head out of the gutter!" or "Sit!" are the funniest lines of this series! With a varitey of unique characters, it makes sense that the creator of this series is the fabulous Rumiko Takahashi. Not only does she love to create humorous characters such as the perverted monk, Miroku, but also adds hints of romance here and there along with some action. The story is basicly about a teenager named Kagome. She accidentally gets taken to Fuedal Japan, where she frees the half-demon, Inuyasha (thus the name of the series). The two go on a mission to collect jewel shards in order to stop other demons from becoming powerful enough to kill everyone. The two also meet characters such as the fox demon, Shippo, demon exterminator, Sango, and who could forget the perverted monk, Miroku! One thing about this series to note is the action. Horror fans will enjoy the gore that this series displays from all it's demon battles. Don't forget Rumiko Takahashi's specialty: romantic comedies! Yep! This series is part romantic comedy! Inuyasha and Kagome seem to have "hints" of starting some romantic flare, but usually ends with a "SIT!" command by Kagome. Don't get the pun? Try reading the manga to find out! |
