Summary

Mangafox  writes :
Kagome is a modern Japanese high school girl. Never the type to believe in myths and legends, her world view dramatically changes when, one day, she's pulled out of her own time and into another! There, in Japan's ancient past, Kagome discovers more than a few of those dusty old legends are true, and that her destiny is linked to one legendary creature in particular--the dog-like half-demon called Inuyasha! That same trick of fate also ties them both to the Shikon Jewel, or "Jewel of Four Souls." But demons beware...the smallest shard of the Shikon Jewel can give the user unimaginable power.

Vash's Inuyasha review:


Okay Let me start on story line.I will say the start of it is fine. She falls down the well and boom there she is in a messed up feudal Japan with demons and such.The story is still fine after she helps out Inu and the shard snaps and then they are forced to go look for it together and then love ensues.

However Even with that little cliched story set up they end up going strong still meeting all the support characters and nemesis. But then it starts to grind my gears.
The one thing that kills any  story for me is repetition. We get it he is a half demon  who is beating up demons.. Over and over and over as the support people look on as they are useless in any situation ..
Whats that a demon. " Well i am going to suck him up with my wind tunnel the only thing I can do.."
"No wait don't do you..Poison beeeeeesss"
Every time poison bees cause every time the person that is behind it is Naraku. I mean it's great to have a main antagonist. But why does he always turn out to be the guy that is behind every single thing that happens in 558 completely the same chapters.
Also I got to say the relationship with Kagome and Inuyasha is so overplayed . they like each other but they'll never admit it .. Blah blah blah. again after 500 chapters that Gets so bloody old.
I I'am getting sick of Run in kill a bad guy so that I can fight another slightly better bad guy in the next chapter type manga. The hero will prevail with some God hack new skill he just learned and they'll get whatever dodgy item there after. weather it is a gem a shard a jewel a necklace a dragonball..

As for Art. The anime got the art better done . But since this is about the manga I will say It looks like  Her other work Ramna's art style .
And that is not a good thing. The Art style doesn't really even improve after all that time so I don't see how anyone can say at all that she has more talent then a turnip with Turrets and an Inking pen. I will say though Sadly I have seen worse In the shonen department.

        Vash's Favorite character's of the series:
None Maybe it was the art or the Boringness of the whole thing that brought down the characters for me. But they all were a bit generic.
