I think I just missed something important.

 

[Zonic]

Tonight's episode of Inuyasha was brought to you by the letter EEEEEEEEEEEEEE, EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE, EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!

 

[Raxus]

At least they killed the series villian in Inuyasha tonight

Tell me about it.

No more love triangle bullshit.

 

[Schadenfreude]

Kinda the feels, guys. I'm pretty sure i've been watching Inuyasha and Kikyo's biz for almost half of my life. Kinda nostalgic and bittersweet to be seeing her go for good this time. Time for One Piece.

 

[B-Dubs]

I was out at a get-together, but I'm back for Final Act.

You just missed the end. Welcome to One Piece!

 

[BassForever]

It's the same problem Orihime in Bleach has
She's far too OP so Kubo writes ways to make sure she's only a healer or she's out of commission or stuff so stupid it hurts.

Yeah and more recently the show Chika the coffin princess had this issue too with

Spoiler

Frederica, a dragoon who the main character could either contract with to become super powerful OR she could go dragon form and stomp things... she's either never around or gets ganked from behind so that she can't do anything

 

[Seda]

off hand, that was probably the best episode yet

 

[LOLDSFAN]

I think I just missed something important.

Something very sad.

 

[BatDan]

Oh god, I just noticed that Red String in the ending. SO VERY SUBTLE!

 

[lazybones18]

yep, that ending got to me ;~;

 

[Moaradin]

i think this would probably be rather well-done if it was another character

I thought Inuyasha crying was pretty well done. I've never seen him like that before. But yeah, I really couldn't care less about Kikyo.

Orihime can't just heal people during fights, that would be stupid. She can't use her powers, what kinda thing is that for someone to do?

 

[MikeMyers]

off hand, that was probably the best episode yet

Next Episode is the GOAT Final Act episode.

I like EP16 a lot too.

 

[Akainu]

Has kagome even kissed inuyasha yet?

 

[Man God]

off hand, that was probably the best episode yet

Two weeks ago was also extremely strong.

 

[ramoisdead]

Yeah I liked the somber song but good riddance to Kikyo.

 

[SparksterMeta0]

CP9 battle finally begins.
For real this time.
And they mean it.

Spoiler

right?

I know what you mean.

 

[Raxus]

I would feel kind of sad for Kikyo dying if they didn't pull this card 3-4 times before. It is a shame since the death scene is relative well done and a nice capper to a really well paced episode.

 

[Dominican Power]

So much goddamn feels.

 

[BassForever]

off hand, that was probably the best episode yet

I'd agree, things were fairly well paced, got some good plot progression, character development, and action.

 

[UltraGunner]

RIP dead lady

 

[grandjedi6]

I'm sure there's a technical name for it, but this is basically the trope of "our character has an OP ability so lets write conveniences so that they can't simply solve the plot on their own"

Miroku
Orihime
Nico Robin


I think only Naruto embraces it's overpowered characters, frequently to the story's detriment.

 

[B-Dubs]

Has kagome even kissed inuyasha yet?

Almost? But then he said something and she got pissed at him.

 

[MikeMyers]

Has kagome even kissed inuyasha yet?

In Movie 2 yes, but in-canon no.

 

[Crayolan]

Here for One Piece.

That Inuyasha episode was pretty good.

 

[ckohler]

I didn't see those other deaths so maybe that's why I found this rather moving tonight.

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

R.I.P Kikyo. You couldn't move your body and died but you were still more useful than Sakura

 

[aspiegamer]

Actually this was her plan all along. She stole the groups shards to do just that.

I mean back at like 50%ish when they really get after him and he starts creating incarnations. If it just takes touching a pure shard, ever...

I know that's the endgame since they lack any other options now but why put this off?

R.I.P Kikyo. You couldn't move your body and died but you were still more useful than Sakura

Ice cold... accurate.

What is next week?

 

[Raxus]

Aw jammit...

One Piece is next. Kaku's devil fruit is revealed and it is glorious.

 

[BatDan]

Miroku
Orihime
Nico Robin


I think only Naruto embraces it's overpowered characters, frequently to the story's detriment.

Also Fugo in JoJo Part V.

 

[BassForever]

Has kagome even kissed inuyasha yet?

Gotta save that shit for the finale or right before/after the final battle

 

[Zonic]

I think I would've felt an actual emotion if this was done closer to the end of the series, like the semi-final or last episode.

...also if Kikyo didn't already die or "nah I didn't die but I almost did" a few times.

 

[MikeMyers]

What is next week?

The Underworld Episode.

 

[Man God]

The Underworld Episode.

OH SHIT.

 

[foxuzamaki]

Something very sad.

I caught like the last 1-2 mins, I felt pretty sad, but I missed how it happened. kikyo and inuyasha kissed? that would be atleast he 2nd time as they kissed when she was alive 50 years ago

 

[Seda]

One Piece at 1:00AM this week, 2:30AM next week.

 

[Regiruler]

Didn't bother to pay attention

Music towards the end was good though

 

[MetatronM]

Miroku
Orihime
Nico Robin

Robin's only really situationally OP.

Miroku and Orihime are just OP OP if they weren't constantly stupidly nerfed, especially Orihime.

 

[BassForever]

I think I would've felt an actual emotion if this was done closer to the end of the series, like the semi-final or last episode.

The issue is they've "killed" Kikyo like 5 times up to this point, I think had this scene been the only death of Kikyo scene it would have caused more emotion

 

[Imperial Bishop]

You just missed the end. Welcome to One Piece!

Yeah, and it had to happen on the last night Toonami was going to be a full six hours.

 

[LOLDSFAN]

Time for ratings killer One Piece.

 

[Raxus]

One Piece at 1:00AM this week, 2:30AM next week.

This hurts my soul.

 

[Soulflarz]

Back for OP with the not terrible opening!

 

[UltraGunner]

Time for Worst OP Piece

 

[Zonic]

The issue is they've "killed" Kikyo like 5 times up to this point, I think had this scene been the only death of Kikyo scene it would have caused more emotion

Yeah, this as well.

 

[mightynine]

One Piece at 1:00AM this week, 2:30AM next week.

*grumble*

 

[KuwabaraTheMan]

Miroku
Orihime
Nico Robin

Even Naruto does it.

Ino should be able to wreck just about every character.

The Underworld Episode.

Can't wait for that one. It was amazing in the manga.

 

[Man God]

Miroku can literally have his power turned off by Naraku.
