InuYasha & Kagome • What Is Love

1 ViewMar 6, 2024

So... I've got conflicting feelings for the InuYasha series. I just finished watching season 7, and am now in the middle of season 8 which is the final act I believe, and I was gonna wait to finish everything including the movies before making any tribute videos because that's what I normally do and it's logical, but I'm not sure if I can continue.... I may or I may not, who knows... I really liked the first 2 seasons, especially season 1 because it was well balanced and didn't have too big a cast and mostly focused on InuYasha and kagome, but I quickly got tired of characters like Naraku and Kikyo, I mean I was expecting Naraku to be defeated by seasons 1 or 2, at latest 3, but OMG I'm now on the final act which I think is season 8 and HE'S STILL the main villain, I personally think it would have been better to have had a new overarching villain every season or every few seasons but that's just not what the writer's did, and as for Kikyo, I'm sorry but I HATE HER, she was fine in season 1 but she truly had no purpose to stay in the show afterwards and that's another huge flaw with this show, I know it was probably targeted for kids (maybe?) but they should've killed off more main or important characters to add tension and stakes, for example: Kikyo's arc ended in season 1 in my opinion, Naraku should've died in season 2 or 3, Kohaku should've died by 4 or 5, I don't know why Kagura got so much screen time and stayed alive until the final act, Kaede was fine but irrelevant after season 1 so she could've been killed off to add tension or stakes, etc, those are the ones at the top of my head but you get the idea, I just feel like this show had great potential but fell in a loop of repetitiveness, they kept doing the same thing over and over again with the characters and storylines so I found myself getting annoyed. I think I touched base on all the main reasons I'm a bit tired of this show.
