#Inuyasha sword Tessaiga

[ashitakaxsan]

  Sōta asked inuyasha’s help ,in order to save Kagome from the horrible Noh Mask.Inuyasha’s immediate responce was vital.The hanyo confirmed Sota’s expactations by saving her,and vanquishing the Mask(chapter 27).

Since this great moment he became Inuyasha’s foremost fan,seeing him as  older brother and hero.

Btw,no offence for anyone who like Kagome,but I can’t avoid a question:Would’ve the excellent warrior miko Kikyo had been so easy target for the mask,the way Kagome was? No,she would fight it and kill it!

Round 1, Match 21: Grass Sword vs: Tessaiga

Grass Sword

From: Adventure Time

Wielder: Finn the Human

Finn bought the Grass Sword from a wizard for $3, but later finds that it is cursed. It attempts to fuse itself with Finn’s arm, and comes back to him whenever he throws it away. Once Finn accepts the curse, he is able to control the sword and wear it as a bracelet. The sword can also regenerate if cut, and can turn parts of Finn’s body into grass when necessary.

Tessaiga

From: Inuyasha

Wielder: Inuyasha

Tessaiga was made from the fang of the Great Dog Demon. It is said to be able to kill hundreds of demons in a single strike. It can also absorb and make use of demonic power, and send people to the afterlife. It seems to possess a will of its own, and has been seen guiding Inuyasha on occasion.

the importance of "I'll protect you with my life"

For @inukag-week's sacrifice prompt, I thought I'd expand on a topic I have only mentioned before: the "I'll protect you with my life" line and why it matters even more than we give it credit for.

The thing about Inuyasha's character is that he was build — both physically and psychologically — to survive.

Physically, the fact that his own blood can be weaponized into a powerful attack backs up that assumption.

And so does the fact that one of his defining traits is having a defense mechanism that kicks in whenever he's on the verge of certain death with the sole purpose of keeping him alive.

Psychologically, his tough childhood shaped his survival instincts into a reliable and sharpened sense. And this next part is more of a conjecture than anything else, but I believe Izayoi's death plays a huge role here.

It can be assumed that she gave up a lot in order to live her love story and her life choices ultimately resulted in an early death. Inuyasha, being the child born from that love, has no better way of honoring her memory than living. First, for her. Then, to spite those who were against his very existence.

And this — conscious or not — need to live, is deeply intertwined with his desire to belong. Fitting in is the safest way to survive and, at first, he tried to achieve that by becoming a powerful demon.

Then, he went the opposite direction and agreed to turn into human, which only cements that his true wish wasn't to simply become one or the other at all, but to be accepted, so he could live.

That's why he doesn't take threats to his life laying down, especially when unearned. It may not look like, given his reckless way of dealing with things, but in a crooked way, Inuyasha actually values his life.

So much, in fact, that putting other people's lives above his own was a foreign concept that he struggled with at the beginning and had to learn in order to wield Tessaiga.

When Kagome tells Inuyasha she will help him with the sword under the condition he promises to protect her, she obviously never meant that said protection should cost of his life.

She wouldn't dream of it because she knows she's not entitled to it. He doesn't owe her anything. Although, one could make a point that he kind of does.

Kagome is literally the reason he is alive. Through their journey, is a recurring theme that her voice would bring him back from death's grasp every time. She's constantly saving his life. In more ways than one.

And despite Inuyasha's immediate reaction to her request being to mock her and making it clear that he never said he would protect her forever, he was the one to willingly and unpromtly add the "with my life" bit.

Even though protecting Kagome with his life was precisely what he had been doing the entire time — in spite of spending a good chunk of the series thinking his life wasn't his to give away —, to say it out loud makes for an amazing paralel and it shows how much they've grown, both as characters and as a couple.

But more than that: it shows a whole new level of devotion. For the first time ever, Inuyasha is chosing to promise his life to someone for no other reason than the fact that he loves her.

And despite talking about a lifelong commitment, I can't remember a single stance of the story where Inuyasha had acted more free.

No wonder the scene can be interpreted as a proposal.

Day 3 of @inukag-week 2023: Safe

Clutching at the red fabric and taking a big inhale, Kagome felt the tight tangle of anxiety come undone. She was fine now. Everything was going to be okay.

Inuyasha was here.

She didn’t know when it first began, because it happened so quickly and so naturally. She hadn’t thought about it the first time she jumped to the shelter of his arms—couldn’t remember when it became her instinct. Perhaps it began even on the first day they ever met.

When Kagome found herself in Sengoku that fateful day, lost beyond worlds, she’d run to Goshinboku to find her home, and there he’d been (her real home, though she’d never have guessed it back then). Sure enough, he saved her from the Mistress Centipede. Despite their rocky start, time and time again he’d prove his capabilities. Learning to depend on Inuyasha’s strength came fast by necessity. If she were in trouble, she believed that Inuyasha could and ultimately would deal with it—if only to ensure his Jewel Shard detector could fulfill her duties (at first).

Then they became friends, and she knew in her heart the way that he’d call for her, “Kagome!” had to mean he cared beyond her usefulness. Not because he had to save her, but because he wanted her to live.

She trusted him to defend her, to protect her, to find her—time and space and rules of the universe be damned.

She believed in Inuyasha. She put her whole heart into her faith in him.

And now, in her newest moment of terror, he was here.

“Kagome, would you quit being a baby already?” her husband admonished.

She was too horrified to be offended, and instead shouted, “No!” before smushing herself further into his arms. Okay, so maybe she was being melodramatic, but she couldn’t help it.

Inuyasha sighed over her antics. It was her weak spot after all.

Maggots. In their home.

Kagome hated bugs. She turned into such a sissy over them despite having faced far worse in her life.

With her body essentially glued onto him, Inuyasha warned, “I have to get closer to them to get rid of them, you know.”

She squealed, “No! Just use Tessaiga! You took out a wall in our house’s kitchen over a cockroach. Remember? I’m sorry I got mad before, just do the same thing now!”

He winced at the memory. It’d been years ago, but he still recalled the way she had screeched so loud that he had overreacted at the time. It’d been a lot of damage after all. He’d like to think he had a little more sense than he did back then.

“I’m not rebuilding our home because of some bugs.” Gross as the rotten heap of fruit was. The smell bothered him most, but even Inuyasha had to admit that the wriggling creatures were disturbing.

“Please, please, please just get rid of them,” she sobbed pathetically, this time burying her face into his chest and practically clawing up his torso to get off the ground. He doubted there were any near them, though she acted as if there was a huge infestation threatening to crawl up her legs any second.

Blowing his bangs up, Inuyasha relented to his wife and unsheathed his sword, which automatically transformed to its full size. Thankfully their home could accommodate it, but the contrast of the weapon compared to the compact pile of mush was comical.

Now, how to deal with this?

Not used to making such minuscule movements, Inuyasha did his best to scoop the mushy peaches onto the end of his sword. It wasn’t the worst idea. After all, he wasn’t keen on getting closer to the rancid smell. Unfortunately the resulting squelching sound made his wife let out a string of, “Ew, ew, ew!” before letting out a short scream.

His ear twitched. “You’re okay.”

She shook her head, gripping at him.

It didn’t seem like she was going to let go of him any time soon, and while he was used to carrying her around, the tight space and task made it cumbersome. But maybe he enjoyed, just a little, how close she was. He could do without her having a meltdown though.

“Okay, let’s go.” He held her to him with one arm, doing his best to navigate their way out the door along with the sword. Once out the door he carefully flung the offending pile of nastiness as far away as he could.

“Are they gone?” Kagome asked. She didn’t dare to pull away just yet.

He gave Tessaiga a good thwack to rid it of any remaining peach liquid. Then he sheathed it. “Most of ‘em. I’ll go back inside to take a look. You oughta get off me unless you wanna deal with them.”

A muffled sigh came from his chest. Kagome peeled herself off him sheepishly.

“Okay…” she replied as she stepped away.

“You wait out here.”

She nodded, and he disappeared behind the screen door only to emerge two minutes later. He chucked something once more as far away as possible, wiped his hands on his pants, and turned to her.

Kagome shoved herself back in his arms, this time hugging him with relief. “You got them all?”

“Uh-huh.”

“You checked near the sleeping mats?”

“Mhmm. You’re safe now.” His affirmations were tinged with affectionate mockery.

She didn’t care. “Thank you,” she mumbled as she clung to him. “You’re my hero.” Quickly (because they were outside) she kissed his lips to show her gratitude.

He stroked her back comfortingly. “Damn right.”

The Complete History of Tenseiga - Part 1

Since Tenseiga is my favorite sword in Inuyasha, I've decided to write a multi-part series that takes a comprehensive look at it's role in the story. For the sake of simplicity, this is only going to look at the original manga, although I don't recall the anime adding much in the way of Tenseiga lore, so I don't think focusing on the manga is going to mean missing out on anything.

Now, it's impossible to talk about Tenseiga without talking about *sigh* Tessiaga. The stories of the two swords are unavoidably intertwined with each other (and we'll find just how intertwined at a much later point in the story) and both Sesshomaru and Tessaiga enter the series at the same time, so it only makes sense that we start out there.

When Sesshomaru is first introduced in the series, he is portrayed as having a single goal: to locate and obtain his father's heirloom sword, the Tessaiga.

Chapter 12-18

My preeeciooousssssssss.

This desire to have Tessaiga for himself, usually by trying to stealing it from Inuyasha, is the single-minded pursuit Sesshomaru follows throughout his first three appearances in the manga.

The backstory for this is that, despite being his father's eldest child and a powerful, full-blooded yokai, the Inu no Taisho never intended to pass the sword down to him. Rather, it's Inuyasha, his hanyo half-brother who winds up inheriting it. Much to Sesshomaru's dismay.

Personal space, bruh. It's called personal space.

Their father even went so far as to hide the Tessaiga (in a tomb initially only accessible via a black pearl hidden in Inuyasha's eye) but to put a spell on the sword that would keep Sesshomaru from being able to wield it.

Sunrise and RT: This origin story for Tessaiga is getting retconned and there's nothing you can do about it.

Taisho's refusal to bequeath his sword to Sesshomaru raises some questions his relationship with his older son. Denying Sesshomaru an inheritance he believes is rightly his suggests the idea that he was the un-favorite. That his father didn't consider him a worthy heir and wanted his younger brother Inuyasha to carry on his legacy instead.

Inuyasha: Although, honestly, some cash would've been nice too.

Chapter 125-126

It's not until Sesshomaru's third appearance (when he yet again initiates a fight with Inuyasha in an attempt to acquire Tessaiga) that we find out that Taisho did leave Sesshomaru an inheritance; a different sword, the Tenseiga.

Tenseiga, in kanji is 天生牙, which of course translates to:

Huh? Baby tooth? That doesn't seem right.

Oh, okay, there we go.

How dare Sesshomaru disrespect Baby Tooth like this.

Now, Sesshomaru has been depicted carrying a sword with him since his introduction, but this is the first time that the blade is acknowledged and given a name. Before this, there was never any explanation for why Sesshomaru wanted Tessaiga so badly when he apparently already had a sword of his own.

Rumiko Takahashi would reveal the reason for Tenseiga's delayed explanation on her Twitter account:

"When Sesshomaru first appears, he is carrying a sword, but at that point it hadn't been decided what kind of sword it was. Even in the fight with Inuyasha that followed, he didn't have the timing to draw it. Tenseiga was something I thought of later. I wanted to make a sword that is the complete opposite of Tessaiga and also of Sesshomaru, a sword that saves people. A sword that follows you even if you throw it away."

It's during this story that his father's swordsmith Totosai shows up in the story. Totosai not only forged Tessaiga and Tenseiga, but was entrusted by Inuyasha and Sesshomaru's father with the duty of helping them hone and develop their respective weapons.

Alright, calm down there, potty mouth.

Sesshomaru's disinterest in Tenseiga is so thorough that even Jaken, despite being his constant companion, knows nothing about it or the fact that is was passed down from his father.

His grievance with his father's decision is made understandable when he reveals the swords true nature. He 'demonstrates' the sword on Jaken and shows that Tenseiga is a blade without the ability to cut or do any sort of damage.

Baby Tooth isn't cutting it. He needs a strong, healthy Adult Tooth.

The sword can't kill or be used as a weapon, so as far as Sesshomaru ( a character who only desires power and seeks Tessaiga as a means to increase his battle prowess and become the strongest demon in the land) is concerned, it's useless to him. Dead weight that he continues to carry around, according to Rumiko Takahashi, on the off chance that it might one day serve a purpose. Even if, at this point, whatever purpose that may be completely eludes him. For now.

Sesshomaru: And I LOVE Killing!

Totosai helpfully explains what exactly the deal with Tenseiga not being able to cut is.

Look at Mo-Mo being cute in the background. That's MY precious.

The reason that Tenseiga can't kill is because it's actually a sword of healing. It brings souls back from the dead and is said to be able to save 100 souls in a single swing. This would make Tenseiga the life-saving counterpart to Tessaiga (a sword that can destroy 100 yokai with a single swing.)

Kagome literally sweat-dropping at the idea of Sesshomaru caring about anyone other than himself.

However, the ability to make use of this restorative power requires having a heart that cherishes others. It requires compassion. Obviously this requirement would be a serious issue for Sesshomaru had he any desire to actually save lives, but at this juncture in his storyline he doesn't seem like someone who'd care to save even 1 soul, let alone 100.

It makes total sense that he'd view Tenseiga as worthless and that he'd have no clue why his father would leave it to him or how it could benefit him. It's also deeply ironic that Sesshomaru would be given a sword whose entire stated purpose is healing and restoring life considering his very name (often translated to things like "killing perfection" or "complete destruction of life" or other phrases relating to murder or death) references his nature as a merciless killer.

"Everyone read Sesshomaru to filth" party.

Given that so far Sesshomaru hasn't displayed a smidgen of the kind of compassionate qualities that Totosai described, it's no surprise Inuyasha would dismiss the idea that Sesshomaru would be able to use it.

This is the last we hear of Tenseiga for a couple chapters but it sets up what's about to come. We know what Tenseiga's purpose is, what it's capable of and are made aware of how unqualified and ill-suited Sesshomaru seemingly would be in regards to mastering it.

He's 0-3 against Inuyasha at this point. I would simply never show my face in public again.

Chapter 129

During his latest battle with his brother, Inuyasha attacks with him with his newly mastered Wind Scar technique. Sesshomaru seems done for—except a mysterious light appears around his body, apparently protecting him and preserving his life.

Tenseiga: I got you, king. Don't worry about it😙

Sesshomaru: Fuck off🤬

So here, we learn that Tenseiga has an additional power to reviving the dead: it can create a barrier around it's master's body and ward off attacks.

And the fact that Tenseiga saved Sesshomaru in this way is proof enough to Totosai that Sesshomaru is the sword's chosen master.

Now that we've been assured Tenseiga is 100% on Team Sesshomaru, it's clear that the only thing keeping it from reaching it's full potential is Sesshomaru himself. He's resisted the sword for as long as it's been in his possession, but what would it take for Sesshomaru to finally utilize it's powers?

We're about to find out.

Well, that's...ominous.

Continued in Part 2

[cupidslyres]

When did the Sesshomaru and InuYasha hatred start?

I came up with a theory on how half-demons age, which is PROBABLY inaccurate. But. Fuck you. That's what.

My theory:

Half demons age every ten years.

Ten years=one year

Twenty years=two years

So on and so forth.

I say this because when InuYasha was attached to the tree for fifty years, he is revealed (in the third, non-canon, movie) to be 200 by then. Meaning he was 150 beforehand, aka fifteen.

So TECHNICALLY he would be twenty at 200, BUT he didn't physically or mentally age so he's still TECHNICALLY 15 (I'm going crazy).

So when Izayoi died and InuYasha was on his own, assuming he wasn't even 5 in half-demon years yet, and Sesshomaru found him, he decided to just fucking DESPISE this child.

Fuck them kids.

WHY IS THAT SO FUNNY??? ALSO TERRIBLE??

WHY did Sesshomaru start hating InuYasha?

We can assume the swords are the main reason. He got the Tensaiga, which he didn't like at first since his name literally means Mass Destruction. While his BABY BROTHER got the Tessaiga for??? Whatever reason??? Destiny, Baksaiga inside Sesshomaru, whatever whatever.

When Sesshomaru is introduced, it's clear InuYasha and him KNOW each other, obviously.

Assuming they met when he was a child, what happened??? Did Sesshomaru try to kill him? Beat him? What?! What HAPPENED?!?!

I doubt it was because of the divorce his father had. Yes Sesshomaru didn't like humans and an interracial (literally) relationship must've been crazy, but not crazy enough for THE Lord of the West to go attack a little boy with dog ears.

Because if he did, damn. Colder than he appears.

This means Rin definitely softened him up 100fold. To where he didn't murder the first kid he saw in blind rage.

Good job Rin! Hope nothing bad happens to you!

inukag week - day 3: bickering

the yakuza boyfriend

read on ao3!

.

.

.

He was what Eri had expected, but also not at all.  

The character called Inuyasha sat cross-legged in Kagome’s room, eying them all with suspicion. His shock of white hair was tied back in a soft blue bandana that contrasted strangely with the bright red clothes he wore. He’d answered their questions with curt responses that hardly surpassed a few syllables, staring at them like they were alien specimens all the while. His impatient yellow eyes darted back and forth between the girls, Kagome’s shaken form distributing tea around the room, and the window. 

So this is her boyfriend. Eri took a tentative sip of her tea. “So, Inuyasha...what school do you go to?” 

Before he could respond, Kagome cut in with, “He’s, um – a foreign exchange student! He goes to a school far away. In, um, Hokkaido.” 

“Oh, wow,” Yuka exclaimed. “That’s a four and a half hour train ride. What’re you doing here during the busy school year?” 

“I’m just helpin’ out her granddad.” 

“Aww,” Ayumi gushed. “That’s so sweet!” 

He blushed. “Uh...” 

Four and a half hour train ride? Exchange student? Eri gave Inuyasha a furtive glance. He hadn’t taken a single drink from his cup, and she noticed how long his nails were as they tapped restlessly on the ceramic rim. Sounds like a cover to me.   

In truth, while the other girls had mostly discarded of their previous yakuza notions, Eri still clung to them. There were too many items of contention that continued to make themselves known. She didn’t know a single school that would let him get away with that hair color and length (he’d claimed it was natural, but how could that be?) - nor those bright contacts, for that matter - unless there was an external factor at play.  

He even went by some sort of code name. Perhaps it was an indicator of rank? Regardless, she was certain that he was lying about at least one of his claims. Not that he had done much of the talking at all. 

She wouldn’t have cared so much if it weren’t for his dating Kagome. He seemed too nonchalant, and with all of the accusations Kagome had levied against him during their group WacDonald excursions, Eri was seeing two very different pictures. She just needed to make sure for certain that Kagome was happy and safe with him, and that he wouldn’t board the next four hour train to Sapporo the minute things got inconvenient.  

Before Eri could get on with the subtle questioning, Ayumi spoke up. After a few intervals of stagnant conversation with a frenzied Kagome, she shifted her starry gaze elsewhere. “Hey, Inuyasha?” 

Inuyasha kept that same puzzled expression, like he didn’t understand why she continued referring her attentions to him when there were three other people in the room to talk to. Any other guy might have been bashful, or even taken it up with stride, but Ayumi’s easygoing nature was lost on him.  

“Yeah?” 

“Why are you carrying a sword?” 

Eri paused, her eyebrows furrowing. She couldn’t believe she hadn’t noticed before (well, she’d mostly been staring at his face) but there really was a sword strapped to his side. The scabbard was hidden by Inuyasha’s voluminous red sleeves, but from where she sat, it looked old and well-worn. 

Kagome choked on her tea when Inuyasha peered down at it. “’S my old man’s,” he confirmed. 

Eri's eyebrows arched. A sword passed down from father to son, huh? He was making this too easy for her.

Ayumi's voice broke through her train of thought. “Oh, like a prop or something?” 

“A prop?” he repeated. 

“You know, like in a play. Oh!” Her eyes glowed with recognition. “Is it the same prop you used during our school play? You know, when you brought out that super huge sword on Hojo?” 

“It’s called the Tessaiga,” he told them, and there was a twinkle of pride in his eyes. “Dunno why that Hojo kid was carrying around a wooden sword. As if it would do ‘im any good.” 

Eri could never forget that disastrous scene – Prince Pannacotta, Escargot Pudding, and what the crowd had dubbed the Sekihan Rogue. As much as she valued preparedness, Inuyasha’s unexpected intrusion had actually made the play so popular that they sold more tickets than any previous cultural festival the school had ever held. 

Yuka clasped her hands together. “Can we see it?” 

He grinned, pleased to get the opportunity. Before he could make a move, Kagome, who had been preparing to take another sip of her tea, said in the most irate tone imaginable: “Osuwari.” 

Immediately, Inuyasha crashed into the ground, hands flying into the air with ludicrous vigor. He held the position for an embarrassing moment, Kagome’s casual sips filling the otherwise pin drop silence, before sitting up and rubbing his chin fervently. Eri expected there to be a bruise, what with the speed and force he had dropped, but his skin was unblemished and he looked only mildly annoyed. 

“What’d you do that for?” 

“I know you weren’t about to demonstrate Tessaiga’s theatrical prowess in my room.” She lowered her teacup to the palm of her hand and gave him a chilling smile. “Right?” 

Like magic, the incredulous dip of Inuyasha’s mouth flattened into a shaky line. He almost looked nervous, but quickly pivoted so that only his forelocks were visible to Eri. Still, the blush on his face was evident, bright as his old fashioned clothes and just as misplaced on the tough-guy image she’d formed in her mind. Had he just bowed at a single word from Kagome’s lips?  

Furthermore, Eri couldn’t understand how Inuyasha could keep up with Kagome. That girl had the potential to be terrifying, but he matched her blow for blow when they argued - and sometimes won out with logic. The rest of the afternoon consisted of their bickering – something about twisted handlebars and broken pottery – but even when they fought, it was incredibly evident that the two were a couple. They cut into each other’s personal space like cars having a feud on the road. When another member of the group tried to steer them into vaguely peaceful territory, Kagome’s shoulders would brush against her boyfriend’s, and his head would tilt down against hers, holding her in place until an irrelevant detour in the conversation ignited their dormant arguments for the nth time. 

As the day drew to a close, Eri decided that she no longer quite saw him as the wayward caricature she’d envisioned – still a punk, though. He was dramatic (he probably just worked in theater) and blunt and the claws were still a questionable fashion choice, but she concluded he wasn't dangerous, at least to Kagome. She admitted that his occasional tenderness - from wrapping a solid arm around her shoulders to defending her from Yuka's obvious joking insults - had gotten to her. After everything that had transpired, she was convinced that Inuyasha’s involvement in the yakuza, or any gang for that matter, was next to none. That notion far too outlandish.  

She now had a new theory. Constant absences, unexplained sicknesses that never seemed to go away despite maintaining a sprightly disposition, and the ability to make someone like Inuyasha bow with a single word... 

(It was Kagome. Kagome was definitely part of the yakuza.)  

[sailorshadzter]

sacrifice.

@inukag-week

The stench of blood is in the air. 

It’s a bitter stench, lingering, but he knows it is a sign of the battle yet to be won. 

They stand side by side, him and his comrades, ready to finish this fight with Naraku before it goes on any longer. Each one of them had their own reasons to defeat him, to end things once and for all, and they would not rest until it was finished. “Kagome!” He looks to his right, where sure enough she stands, a fierce determination in her dark blue eyes. “Where’s the shards?” Those same eyes widen ever so slightly and then she’s turning away, looking up at Naraku now, seeing for the first time the glow of the Shikon no Tama.

“There! In his chest!” She points upward, where she alone can see the faint glow of the jewel he holds, nearly completed, but not quite. Instinctively her hand grasps the little bottle she wears around her own neck, which inside sits two shards, some of the final ones of those lost all those months ago when her arrow shattered the jewel. Those piercing red eyes turn her way then, Naraku’s scowl sending chills down her spine as their gazes meet. But she would not show her fear, not now, not ever!

“It’s over Naraku!” Inuyasha shouts, leaping into the air with his sword swinging- of course, as he expects, the barrier erects around him, preventing him from hitting his mark. But that’s not his only trick. A squeeze of Tessaiga’s handle and it glows red, the power flowing through the steel as he swings again. This time, the barrier shatters and below his comrades are ready to intervene. Sango’s hiraikotsu comes barreling through, but Naraku vanishes into thin air a moment before it can strike. 

Falling back to the ground, he lands into place beside Kagome, glancing her way a moment before Naraku appears once more, his swarm of miasma and saimyosho preventing Miroku from unleashing his wind tunnel. “Careful guys,” Kagome says, clutching her bow closely, watching above as Naraku begins to laugh. She alone can feel the sting of the poisoned Shikon No Tama, the once lilac light growing ever darker. It wounds her soul in a way nothing else ever has, in a way she can’t put to words, not even in her own mind. She has to find a way to purify it and fast… The miasma that seeps out from the tainted jewel only serves as a power booster for Naraku and she knows it wouldn’t be long before his power would overwhelm them. 

Inuyasha is flying forward once more, Tessaiga swinging. “Wind Scar!” He bellows, unleashing his attack, soaring back towards the ground as the Wind Scar hits the mark- but just as he suspects, Naraku’s barrier has returned, protecting him from harm. Again he swings, the red blade returning, but before he can strike, Naraku’s arm shoots forward, turned back into the twisted tentacle that aims for Inuyasha. Cursing, he darts out of the way just in the nick of time, landing a short distance away from Kagome and the others. “Cheap trick. Naraku. Scared I’ll cut off your head if I get too close?” Inuyasha smirks, though Naraku’s smile is a malicious one as he looks down upon the hayou. “Try this!” He leaps back as the blade becomes less like steel and more like diamond. “Adamant Barrage!” The shards from the sword fly forward, crashing through the barrier and once more taking it down. Before anyone can move, Inuyasha is on the move, ready to attack before Naraku ever has the chance to recover the barrier. “Wind Scar!” he shouts again and unleashes the attack with every ounce of fury he has inside of him. 

This time it hits and something about the moment feels off. 

Kagome watches as Inuyasha comes back down to where they stand, his triumphant look telling her he doesn’t feel the same vibes that she does. “Inuyasha…!” She calls out, uncertainty in her eyes as he turns to face her, Tessaiga resting against his shoulder. But there is no time for the hanyou before Naraku appears behind him, his red eyes gleaming in the darkness of night. “Look out!” She screams, fear coursing through her, but there was no time to react, not even for Inuyasha, for just as he spins around, Naraku attacks.

The hanyou is pierced through his chest with one of Naraku’s twisted tentacles, the spray of blood shocking her as she can do nothing but watch. Black lightning begins to crackle and then it surrounds Inuyasha, enveloping him until he’s out of sight, lost among the darkness of the attack. Her heart pounding, she doesn’t think, she doesn’t even hesitate- somehow, her body just knows what to do. Despite the shouts from her comrades, she’s rushing forward, drawing an arrow from her quiver and squaring her shoulders. “I don’t think so Kagome,” Naraku’s voice booms, another tentacle coming her way, knocking her off her feet before she can aim. And though she stumbles, she gets back up onto her feet, putting her arrow to her bow. She takes aim and with a single deep breath, she lets it fly. 

The lilac glow is like a beacon in the night, the arrow flying forward, aimed not for Naraku himself, but for the limb that still is piercing Inuyasha’s chest. Her arrow does the trick, severing the tentacle and at once the lightning ceases, allowing for the hanyou’s body to tumble back to the ground. Naraku growls, knowing he had to do something about that damned woman and soon, but… he recalls the need to use her eyes, her mystic power to find the remaining Shikon no Tama shards, and his anger cools. At least just a little. 

Red eyes flicker back to the hanyou there on the ground, finally in a way that could result in his end. It had to be now. “This is the end for you, Inuyasha,” Naraku calls, raising his hand, a gathering of energy swirling in his palm. He would kill Inuyasha and take Kagome and finally complete his desires. 

This would be it.

Kagome watches as the power Naraku gathers in his hands grows, the wind swirling around him, the black lightning crackling. She knows almost at once what he intends to do as her eyes dart back to the fallen hanyou- who is squirming now on the ground, unable to rise, unable to protect himself from what was about to happen. And even him, the strong, the seemingly unbeatable Inuyasha, couldn’t withstand a powerful blast such as this one in his condition. She thinks of every moment that’s led them to this one- each moment that Inuyasha has thrown himself into battle at her expense, that he’s protected her, shielded her, caught her. He’d been there for her in every way possible… perhaps now… 

Perhaps now it was her turn.

She isn’t sure what she can do, but she knows she has to try. Rushing forward, she throws herself down onto the ground at his side, his weak voice crying out her name as he realizes what she intends to do. Instead, she glances his way and smiles, as if she somehow knows everything would be just fine. And then, holding tight to her bow, she turns back to face the attack that is now hurtling towards them.

When it strikes, she feels the sharp sting of the lightning, but the bow she holds does something miraculous. The light surrounds both her and Inuyasha, bright and beautiful, forming something like a barrier of her own making, shielding them from the brunt of the attack. When the light dies away, they are left mostly uninjured, save for the few burns she’s endured to her arms. “It’s over for you, Naraku,” she spits, an arrow to her bow, blue eyes narrowing as she focuses, poised to strike him down once and for all.

Surprised by this outcome, Naraku takes a step back before he vanishes, reappearing in the sky high above them, out of her arrow’s trajectory. He hadn’t been prepared for a new show of that spiritual power of hers… But it only serves as more of a reason to make her his. If he couldn’t have Kikyo, this would be the next best. “Oh, but it isn’t over yet,” he says, red eyes finding blue, before he’s gone in a storm of swirling miasma. 

With Naraku gone, she’s turning to face the battered Inuyasha, who is now pushing his elbow to the dirt, forcing himself upright. “Kagome��� Are you crazy?” He asks as she puts her arm around him, helping him up into a sitting position. He’s badly injured, that she can see, but he must be feeling well enough if he can admonish her in such a way. “You could have been killed!” He cannot bear such a thought- and even now, recalling how weak he’d been in the moment, unable to protect himself, let alone her, made him sick. He was supposed to keep her safe and she could have died in that moment, all because she’d put herself in front of him.

“You always do it for me,” she says with a shrug, lips curving in a smile. 

Inuyasha blinks, surprised by her words, but then his gaze softens, his heart turning over as he slides his hand into place over hers. “Just don’t do it again,” he sighs and she laughs, tears filling her eyes as she leans in to embrace him, uncaring of the blood that will stain her clothes. Despite his injured frame, he holds onto her, breathing her in; despite it all, he’s thankful for her desire to protect him, to keep him safe. 

There weren't that many people in the world so willing, after all.

Tenseiga's Time Limit Explained

Sesshoumaru noticed Rin getting attacked by wolves immediately in InuYasha Manga Chapter 130 -

In Chapter 131 - He even scared off the wolves.

In the anime version, the wolves and scene where Sesshoumaru scares them off were removed. But its still daytime in a shrowded forest. Based on the time of the attack: This means Rin was revived very shortly after her death. In InuYasha Manga Chapter 126 and InuYasha Episode 143 - 3000 Leagues in Search of Father Kanta says his Father's Head was cut off three days ago.

InuYasha Explains that demons don't die so easily which is why their bodies still move after their heads being cut off, and if Kanta's father's head was rejoined to the body, he can be resurrected. We know that by the time they caught up with the body, it died entirely.

Sesshoumaru became the one to resurrect him with Tessaiga immediately after the body died.

This is a key piece of information in regards to Tenseiga - It depends on whose being resurrected rather than the sword itself. In Yashahime: Princess Half-Demon Episode 25 -

Toutousai says that he would be able to repair the broken Tenseiga in order to revive Setsuna in three days, Jaken says by three days it would be too late. That Setsuna needs to be revived within the next hour - The same amount of time frame when Sesshoumaru revived Rin. This is because Setsuna is a half-demon and can't survive the same amount of time the way a demons body can, even without its head. InuYasha Wide Edition 27 - Tenseiga https://www.tumblr.com/officialinuyasha/682161326105264128/inuyasha-wide-edition-27-translation-tenseiga

"those who died a long time ago can’t be revived, even if the Guardian of the Underworld is defeated."

Summary:

In 1496 Japan, humans and demons (yōkai) battle over the Shikon Jewel (四魂の玉, Shikon no Tama, lit. "The Jewel of Four Souls"), which is said to grant any wish. Kikyo, the priestess who keeps the Shikon Jewel, is in love with the half-demon Inuyasha. However, they fall into a deceitful trap and betray each other. Inuyasha steals the Shikon Jewel, but the dying Kikyo pins Inuyasha to a tree with a sacred arrow. Per Kikyo's will, her body is cremated along with the Shikon Jewel, which disappeared from the era.

Five hundred years later, Kagome Higurashi lives on the grounds of her family's Shinto shrine, with her mother, grandfather and younger brother. On her fifteenth birthday, Kagome is dragged into the enshrined Bone Eater's Well (骨喰いの井戸, Honekui no Ido) by a centipede demon and sent back in time to the Sengoku period in 1546. The Shikon Jewel manifests from within the body of Kagome, who is Kikyo's reincarnation, and she desperately frees Inuyasha from the tree to kill the centipede demon. When Inuyasha threatens her, Kikyo's sister Kaede subdues him with a magical bead necklace to keep him under control. Later, Kagome inadvertently shatters the Shikon Jewel into many shards with an arrow, and they scatter across Japan and into the possession of various demons and humans.

Inuyasha obtains his father's sword Tessaiga, which places him at odds with his older half-brother Sesshomaru, the wielder of Tenseiga. Inuyasha aids Kagome in collecting the shards and dealing with the threats they come across. On their journey, the presence of Naraku, a spider half-demon who was responsible for manipulating Inuyasha and Kikyo, comes to light. While pursuing Naraku, Inuyasha and Kagome recruit the young fox demon Shippō, the perverted monk Miroku (whose hand was cursed by Naraku), and the demon slayer Sango and her two-tailed demon cat Kirara. Sango's clan was killed when they were tricked by Naraku, and her younger brother Kohaku fell under his control. Over time, Inuyasha enhances Tessaiga into stronger forms while defeating his enemies. His team is loosely allied with Sesshomaru, whom Naraku attempted to manipulate, the resurrected Kikyo who plans to purify the Shikon Jewel if all shards are collected, and Kōga, the leader of a wolf demon tribe who seeks to avenge his comrades whom Naraku killed. As Inuyasha and his friends journey together, he and Kagome begin to fall in love with one another, which is complicated by Inuyasha's lingering feelings for Kikyo.

Desperately hunted by his enemies, Naraku temporarily removes his heart and wounds Kikyo. Kohaku, having been previously killed but later revived by Naraku and kept alive and under his control by a Shikon Jewel shard, eventually regains his free will and memories, and attempts to escape Naraku's group. During that time, Sesshomaru settles his feud with Inuyasha to enable his brother to perfect Tessaiga to its optimal abilities. Kikyo sacrifices herself to give life to Kohaku, and Naraku collects all the shards to restore the Shikon Jewel. As he is slain by Inuyasha and his allies, Naraku reveals his true desire for Kikyo, despite his hatred towards her, and he uses his wish to trap himself and Kagome inside the Shikon Jewel before dying. Revealed to be sentient, the Shikon Jewel intends for Kagome to make a selfish wish so that she and Naraku will be trapped in an eternal conflict, thus prolonging the Jewel's existence. However, with Inuyasha by her side, Kagome wishes for the Shikon Jewel to disappear forever, allowing her to return to her time with the well sealed, and she and Inuyasha lose contact for three years.

In that time, the Sengoku period changes drastically: Sango and Miroku marry and have three children together, Kohaku continues his role as a demon slayer, and Shippō trains to make his demon magic stronger. Back in the present, Kagome graduates from high school, and manages to get the Bone Eater's Well in her backyard to work again. She returns to the Sengoku period, where she reunites with Inuyasha, marries him, and continues to train with Kaede and become a topmost-level priestess.

25. (Senseless) InuKag 🥹 please!🙏😘

When the choice was between InuYasha and Kagome, there was never a choice to be made–not in InuYasha’s eyes. 

He shoved her backwards, less than gentle when time was of the essence. 

A white hot blast of energy hit InuYasha square in the chest, stalling his heart and frying his mind. Time dragged on endlessly marked only by the years between the baubles on his necklace exploding. Tessaiga fell from his fingers as the ground rushed up to meet him. Every ounce of him cried out, insisting that he could not bear the agony that toyed with him.

Somewhere, he could hear Kagome screaming–begging maybe–and it was because of that fear that he forced himself back to his feet. He was not enduring this so that she could suffer anyway. From a cry in the distance, to stunning clarity, InuYasha opened his eyes to see Kagome standing before him, clutching his robes. ‘Come back to me’ she cried. ‘InuYasha please’ she continued. ‘Wake up, wake up, wake up.’ It all felt senseless. As the burn subsided and the world snapped into focus he felt as if he’d been asleep before now. 

“I hear you Kagome.”

She glanced up at him, crystal tears leaving her pale face blotchy and puffy. It was as if she expected him to go on a rampage, to slaughter the masses in a blind, senseless rage. But he didn’t feel senseless. He didn’t feel out of control.

“But you’re…” she rubbed at his face, as if he were the one crying. “Your eyes. Your cheeks.” When he didn’t immediately respond she took a step backwards. “Are you sure you’re alright?”

Kagome handed Tessaiga back to InuYasha, watching him warily as he took it and then immediately cast it back into the dirt. It was as if the sword no longer recognized him, but, on the other hand… InuYasha could hardly say that he felt he needed it anymore. He felt untouchable.

“I’m fine.” He said finally. And then once more, when her eyes reflected her doubt too clearly, “I said I’m fine. Stop worrying!” 

She breathed a sigh of relief into his robes, embracing him as if she thought he’d turn to dust if she was not squeezing the wind out of him. By now the burn was gone, but if anyone asked, he’d attribute the flush in his cheeks and the pounding of his heart to the blast.

Spooktober day 15 haunted house

A Inuyasha Modern AU for @ghostsfanficevents event Spooktober day 15 Haunted House featuring my inukag kids Akio and Izayo.

Inuyasha, wearing his red hoodie and pants, and his family of his wife Kagome and their kids daughters Moroha and Izayo and son Akio enter the haunted house of the fairground which the four years old white hair Izayo hold her father's hand tight due to the scary noses that the speakers in the haunted house are playing. "It is alright, Izayo." Inuyasha said to his younger daughter, "It's just a scary maze, and I will keep you safe." A man in a scar mask jump up and cry out, "Boo!" which made Kagome and her twins jump and Izayo hide behind her father in fear, which cause Inuyasha papa wolf nature to kick in. While he know that it is not a real monster, Inuyasha show the man his scabbard to give the worker a idea that he shouldn't scare his daughter if he want what good for him and the masked man back away and run off. As Moroha call out, "Hey, run from Moroha the warrior." Kagome turn to help her younger daughter and noticed Inuyasha is showing his scabbard and she ask her husband, "Inuyasha, did you threated that guy?" which Inuyasha lies, "No. It was my face that scared that monster away."

The masked man run to his friends wearing a bug costume and mad scientist costume, which the mad scientist ask his friend, "Fred, what are you doing here?" and Fred reply, "Guys, there is a white hair yakuza with his family and a sword. We better not scare his family, or else he will attack us." Fred's friends look at each other and the mad scientist ask Fred, "Are you sure it was just a prop?" and the friend in bug costume said to Fred, "Don't worry, guys. I scare this guy." and Fred warn his friend, "Billy, wait."

As the family continue on the haunted house, a big humanoid bug pop up and Izayo scream as she run behind her father and Inuyasha reveal Tessaiga, to the bug man's shock, and he said to the monster, "I thought I give your friend the hint to not scare my daughter." and Kagome was shocked that Inuyasha was threating the workers of this haunted house while the bug monster unmaksed himself as a blond hair teenage boy and said, "Whoa, whoa, my name is Billy, and I'm a worker here. There are no monsters here. It is just us workers in costumes." and Izayo slowly come out from behind her father and Kagome said to her daughter, "Do you want to leave this place, Izayo?" which she nod and Kagome take her young daughter out. Putting the Tessaiga away, Inuyasha said to Billy, "Okay, you guys can get back to the scaring stuff."

[luimagines]

Hey Pinky I am back with my Lynel Farm something that came to my mind because of irish!Reader but it has more with the mythology that kicked my brain. I am ancient compared to most people for the category of Anime. I watched Beyblade Metal Fusion as a kid but it's not about that even if it would be funny. But I write about another childhood series I saw, Inuyasha. As I don't know if you know this Anime I make a little headcanon. This is Inuyasha!Reader.

They lived in the feudal lands of Japan.

Reader may look young, like 15 to 17, but they are actually over 200 years old.

They are a Hanyou, which means they are half human and half Youkai, a half-demon.

Even though their mother had a title that is the same rank of a princess, they were treated horribly with only their mother as support.

But demons didn't accept them either as they were still part human.

Their father was a dog demon, a strong one at that, with the title of the Lord of the Western Lands.

And his blood is strong which is why Reader has white silvery hair with golden yellow eyes.

Except it's a new moon, in this phase of the night they lose all their abilities they have as a Hanyou, don't worry I will list them later.

At the new moon they have the hair colour of Reader with their eye colour as it's their human part and they hate the new moon as it also makes them vulnerable.

They wear the Robe of the Fire-Rat, it's from their father, with a white hadagi undershirt. And with this they are fireproof. They can walk through a forest fire and come out alive and without a scratch. And they always go around barefoot.

Their abilities are enhanced jumps, they can jump from a one story house up to the roof of a four story high house. They have superhuman strength like Reader punches through solid steel. Superhuman speed, they can outrun a horse without problems and as their stamina is inhuman as well. They can run through the whole day and still make it through the complete nightshift. Their agility and reflexes are nothing to brush off either, they can catch and destroy arrows mid air even if they stand with their back to their opponent or opponents. Their durability and accelerated healing will shock the Chain, especially Hyrule. They can get impaled through their stomach and survive it while fighting! And within a day the wound is gone without leaving a single scar.

As a dog demon they have enhanced senses of smell and hearing. They can smell the hints of blood from kilometres away and can hear what people were whispering from a great distance away. They also have dog ears which are very fluffy like the ones from an Akita Inu.

Their fighting style is unorthodox to say at least as they are extremely stubborn and refuse to back down, even when their life is in danger. As they won't back down and fight with their claws if their sword isn't available or they don't want to use it and they can solidify their own blood and make it into flying blades.

Now to their sword. It's called Tessaiga which is the sword that can "kill a hundred demons in a single stroke" and it looks like a Katana that's about to break until they draw it to protect someone, who is dear to them. Then it looks like an overgrown dog fang and its cross guard has a large patch of fur also similar to the one of a dog. But it only changes into this form by Reader's hand only.

But their demon blood is also their weakness. You see Tessaiga is practically suppressing and sealing Reader's demon half away to a certain content. When they are in life danger and don't have Tessaiga with them they can become a full-fledged demon and attack every living being they deemed as a threat.

They also have an older half-brother and they hate each other. A deceased wife and a daughter which is a quarter part demon.

Now to the group. They will be so suspicious of each other. Reader is half demon but not with Ganon, they don't even know who that is and they don't understand one word from each other. Reader will be confused with them as in their home people with pointed ears are normally demons but the Chain don't look, smell or fight like one.

But after they learned the language I think they will tolerate each other but begin to trust after a while. Well except for Wind he loved to be carried by them as they are fast and jump far away. Four screams at them because of Tessaiga's broken form until they show him the real one. Then he is all over them and their sword as it's made out of the fang tooth of their father and its attacks are very destructive. They also can fight through an army of monsters and even without breaking a sweat and without injuries on them.

But also can find traces far easier than Twilight as they have a more sensible nose than him. But they can't stand him, they have bad experience with wolves, one tried to court and kidnapped their late wife. So they often say to him "Wolf-Cub", it was an insult for the wolf demon back then.

But Reader and Legend will have so many fights as Reader is pretty hotheaded and got betrayed the worst possible way. Their first love pinned them with a seal and an arrow onto a tree. They were hated by humans and demons alike so they are harsh. Hyrule still wants to heal them after they encounter a tough opponent even if Reader can lift a Lynel and can bite through the neck of a Gleeok. Time will be impressed as he is not half as nimble as they are. Yes, Wild is technically 117 years old but he slept 100 years but Reader was only sealed away for 50 years until they were back kicking and screaming so they have his respect.

Sky will be the most suspicious one at first as they are a half demon after all. But he will notice that they are really protective over the people they care for and see as their friends and family. And as he asked about their life, after they trust the group. They talk about their daughter, their late wife, the adventures they went through, their deceased friends, their half-brother, how they met their wife and so on and Sky as the true romantic he is will ask more about the missus. Wars tries to get them to stop being so reckless even if they eliminate 100 monsters alone he can't allow that. Wild will ask about recipes from their homeland and they have some, which their mother shared with them when they got sick, which is a very rare occasion.

But they definitely disappear when it's the new moon until dawn so they don't see their human form. It's stuck with them since they were a child, to hide when its new moon as they are vulnerable at this time and feel pain. Or have their abilities anymore but if one of them saw that they will threaten the Link with his life.

I've got no notes. XD

I think you've covered most, if not, all of the bases. I know what anime you're talking about but I've never seen it. I have the faintest suspicion that this is more or less the timeline/backstory of the dog man half demon from the show. XD

Actually, I lied. One note.

I don't know if Twilight would register "Wolf-Cub" being an insult or not. He'd probably think it was just a nickname and that Reader just straight couldn't care less about him. Kinda like "Yes, I am a wolf. Thank you for noticing. Why say it like that?"

Unless he starts to think that it's actually a term of endearment because Reader is a dog demon and also calling him pup/cub from time to time like Time does (in fics- I forgot if that's canon or not.)

With all of this in mind, I think that it would lead to a funny one-sided hate/tolerate relationship where Twilight just doesn't register Reader hating his guts for literally no reason. XD

Inuvember day 6 Sesshomaru

A Inuyasha fanfiction for @inuvember event Inuvember day 6 Sesshomaru.

Sesshomaru walk in the lands as he think about his father leaving his legacy and swords to his sons, whose are Sesshomaru himself and his half brother Inuyasha. Yet, he hear that Inuyasha is the owner of their most powerful sword Tessaiga, and this anger him that a hybrid is the owner of a powerful weapon that a pure demon like Sesshomaru should have.
