"Superb"

By makgambit, Oct 27, 2006

I thought this episode was good, but not memorible. Its only been two days since I have seen it and I already forgot about it. THe main thing is that a bunch of demons are running around like idiots. The gang comes across them and easily dispatches them. The more they encounter, the more the demons resemble humans. Then they meet up with the little brat hakudoshi and his new demon he has now perfected. Inuyasha of course fights him and notices that Hakudoshi dives in front of the demon to protect it. The bad part is that the reason why Hakudoshi finially protects the thing is not explained well if at all. Then the gang just goes on its way when the two demons retreat.moreless

A mix feeling from me for this episode.

A mix feeling from me for this episode. First of all, I like how the story\'s finally moving after the few filler and \"can be left out\" episodes. Mouryoumaru gets his premiere in this episode as well.
Now with what I do not like: a lot of information is jammed pack into this episode of twenty-something minutes, which makes the episode itself a bit too rush. The producers also cut out Kouga\'s return. The wolf\'s supposed to have his encounter with Mouryoumaru before the Inuyasha gang. This would also be the only time Kouga has ever used his sword. What makes me more mad about this is the fact they did have the time to tell a complete story. This is proven by the presence of filler episodes of season seven.
So overall, I like the story itself, but I do not like the way it is told by the producers of the anime.moreless

The baby can be spotted now, thanks to the stone that Naraku gave him. Hakudoushi has a new puppet, Moryumaru.

I really like this episode, because you finally get to see Moryoumaru. YOu sort of see that the baby controls Hakudoushi, and the importance of Moyrumaru .
You also get to see Kikyou here, at a brief fight with Naraku, wich never ends because Inuyasha appears and Naraku leaves.
I just love kikyou, seeing her fighting Naraku is even better. Sadly no Kouga in this episode, in the Manga he does appear but not here.

I'll stop now because I probably have given many spoilers, just wait for this episode, then try reading the manga so you see moryumaru to his full potentialmoreless
