Customer Reviews of Inu-Yasha - The Demon Within (Vol. 18)
A Great Story Continues Episode 52, A Demon's True Nature is the most appealing of the three episodes, particularly after the very disgusting moth-demon is disposed of. Half demon Inu Yasha gives a glimpse of what he really would be like if he were to fulfill his quest to become a full demon, and suffice to say isn't pretty, and the body count is high. He pretends to be brave about it afterwards, but Kagome's "Don't kid yourself" and the dialogue that follows is some of the most honest and moving of any episode. This one just gets better and better as it continues.
The next two episodes, 53 and 54, (which began the new season on Adult Swim recently), set the tone for a number of future episodes, which is both good and bad. The musical score gets increasingly rich, and the animation is as good as ever. We also get to find out about the demon-dragon, or dragon-demon, Ryukotusei, that appears in the end-credits along with Inu Yasha's brother in a number of early episodes. But it's not terribly interesting. It boils down to another "what new neat thing can we make Inu Yasha's sword Tetsusaiga do". Ok ok, wind scar, backlash wave, we get it already, it's one powerful sword. Inu Yasha will emerge signficantly more powerful than he was before. Is he more powerful than even his father ...
The original elements that made the series so interesting, the Arch Demon Naraku, Sango's little brother, Inu Yahsa's lost love Kikyo, even Kagome's family, all seem to fade far into the background while more and more second-rank villians, allies, and others appear on the scene. Even the quest to retrieve the shards of the sacred jewel seems to have lost much of its importance. Still, it is always interesting, visually exciting, the sound is great, and the characters well-rounded. For episode 52 especially, it's worth the price.
Box cover is a bit of a departure, in that you have only Inu Yasha, no Kagome or other characters, just Ryukotusei. Extras, as always, are fairly minimal.
If You Don't Buy These Eps, You'll Regret It!
I saw the first ep where Inu starts battling Ryukotsusai(Father's Old Enemy, Ryu-), but I missed the Backlash Wave, then saw The Stone Flower. I must say, Father's Old Enemy and The Stone Flower were wonderful episodes, especially since The Stone Flower was based around a cute little Shippo romance! Even though Inu Yasha's my second favorite anime, the whole Inu/Kik/Kag love triagle gets a tad boring, correct? I alreadt preordered it, so I want it soon! Buh-Bye!
Great episodes!
Ah, the new episodes of Inu-Yasha are out on DVD already! The first two involving Ryokutsei were very interesting and are important as far as the storyline is concerned. "The Stone Flower and Shippo's First Love" was an interesting eipsode because it strays from the normal battles or Inu/Kag/Kikyo triangle (or anything else concerning Inu-Yasha's love life). In fact, I think this is the first episode where the writers even cared about Shippo since his introduction. What I liked the most about the eip. is how it showed the characters- normally. No battles or angst, and as much as I love both, it was a good change
