Strike Three and Inuyasha is out of here!

I never thought there were any legit fans of Inuyasha until this thread.
I might have liked it if the plot actually went anywhere. Needless to say, I'm not particularly sad it's gone. It was pretty much Adult Swim's leftovers.

You do know inuyasha was like super popular back in the day right, which is probably why it has appeared on adult swim this long, im surprised cowboy bebop aired more than it, then again inuyasha has a ton more episodes.

Sometimes you just gotta cut your losses, like how I will never be able to fully catch up on Detective Conan.

Even this arc felt unnecessarily long at times

Well I knew it was popular, but I always thought it was popular in the same way stuff like Twilight is popular, if you know what I mean.

Sort of, but inuyasha wasent a fad, it def had alot of legs, the only reason it didnt end really was because of the usual manga to animation woes, it was popular enough that, like FMA, they decided to continue the series proper(infact I think FINAL ACT came out about a year or 2 before brotherhood)

The romance gave it a huge crossover appeal and created a very vocal fanbase among girls, but in general it's a fun show. It's sort of like a lot of these case of the week shows on channels like USA; they go nowhere fast, but they're pleasant to watch and enjoyable regardless due to the characters.

You can have in-jokes and jokes that *are* relevant and unalienating/possible to get to new comers
I don't understand what you are saying, let me be clear I don't like twilight and think it conveys messages I do not agree with, but it kinda sits unwell to claim something as not having legit fans because of ,from what all I can infer, it's popular with teenage girls who may like it for the romance or male characters. For one we certainly don't bring up this commentary for the teenage male equivalents of popular things , there's no "I never thought until this thread there were legit DBZ/Bleach/Naruto fans" . Inuyasha is by all means a pretty plodding or meandering show at times.But it does very much have its elements of excitement, quality and entertainment.The elements that makes it popular with girls are typically pretty ok ,if not , yes, part of the draw. I will note, I do not think you intentionally meant anything by what you said , but it does create the commonly perpetuated implications that either "Things teenage girls/women like or that appeal to their interests cannot have value or be good/quality" or that "Teenage girls/Women don't qualify as legitimate fans of things".
While it doesn't quite hit the highs that say a Naruto does I'd say Inuyasha is one of the most consistent big shows ever. It's very well written and besides the meandering to the ending its a very easy to watch show. The characters have believable motivations, the sound design is good, the animation is incredibly high quality for its age, there have been nights during the past arc where the best animation on the entire block is from this old as dirt show and the dub is overall quite pleasant.
The only bad episode of Inuyasha I can think of is interestingly enough episode 100, a horrible clip show with a filler version of a canon villain.

Hmm...
Did that one have "Stone Wielder Boulder Greaver"? If so that's god-tier.

I can't remember much legit bad episodes of Inuyasha, sure there are some that are a bit "been there done that" , but thats a complaint that can be edged towards lots of things and I still think Inuyasha ends up being quite manageable in that regard comparatively .

I noticed I was way into inuyasha where I put my highschool schedule around it when it came on at 4 o clock in the morning every week day before school, I had the energy to do that then, waking up at 4 in the morning deliberately, not anymore.
Wooo! ERock finally does a metal cover of a One Piece opening!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ipz-FsPa0qk
It's Opening 17, the most recent. Not really a spoiler but yeah.

That was a highlight of TPP if i ever saw one, we lasted predictably long against blue, but man, that dragonite defeat

They already got to blue? Damn we'll beat the game tonight probably
Gotenks and Vegetto never even won a fight. Granted Vegetto lost on purpose to save his kids, but Goku just let them die anyway.
Plot is not the main priority of the anime; it takes tons of liberties from the manga's stories. It's about being entertaining, largely through its characters.
Yeah episode 100 is the only one I skip.
Doctor Decimate

i'd skip pretty much everything from 83 to 101 (what i understand to be a whole lot of filler, and it shows) except for four episodes: the monkey sprites one, Kagome going home sick, Sota's girlfriend, and Shippo telling everyone why Kirara ran away. and they're all comedy.

To me the plot can go away and I would love a show as long as there is alot of character interaction, its what I prioritize over everything else, its probably why I enjoyed the first 10 episodes of steins;gate so much.

What was kikyo's lonely journey again? Expanding it more than 5 pages probably was for the better.
No. This is the OTHER one where Shippo is trying to mack on some 7 year old hottie and these annoying fox demons egg him on into being a stupid dick. I think it would have been coming up relatively soon.
That's 130 - Shippo's New Technique, The Heart Scar!
Its the one about the guy who originally defeated Onigumo.

I saw it Monday, it was amazingly good. You guys need to see it.
Nah we're just talking about Inuyasha here, no Naruto at all.
Naruto...
Naruto...
Oh fuck I have to watch Naruto tonight. At least I'll get to type out Twenty at least four times.
Complain that Gennedy shows were canceled. Or continue to talk about Naruto. Ratings on Tuesday. What will replace Bleach is a fun one. YYH comes in and out of style around here during weekdays. Every other month we have a thousand posts on Naruto openings and endings.
