no…you’re so right for this. esp cause she was one of the best if not THE best slayer in the whole village. now there’s like….no female slayers?
for her to not pass any of that on to her own kids…just doesn’t make sense. especially cause in her village EVERYONE was a demon slayer. even her dad, who was older than she is now. it doesn’t make sense that she’d retire just to be a housewife imo. and by herself while her husband goes and fucks off in the woods? no! she would be fighting and bringing in income for her village!
I love Mirsan as a ship don’t get me wrong but Sango was really done dirty in Yashahime/the ending.
She’s the second strongest member of the team after inuyasha himself meanwhile Miroku is pretty much a squishy wizard without his strongest magic yet SHE is the one who retires fro demon slaying and NOT him? Like it literally makes no sense outside rigid gender roles! And I can’t even see Miroku being the type of guy to try to enforce that (as if Sango would let him of he tried lmao) he wanted to be a dad more than anything! It woudkve been much more natural to see the reverse of Sango hunting demons with Inuyasha while Miroku retires from combat stays with the kids!
And then there’s the passing of Hiraikotsu and Kirara to Kohaku and then Hisui….those where SANGO’S they where HUGE PARTS of HER character in Inuyasha we see her very deeply connected to both Hiraikotsu and Kirara! It feels so WRONG for those to be taken from her, and fine at least Hiraikotsu is a weapon so if you REALLY want to retire her I guess it makes sense for her to pass it on. But KIRARA that’s her little friend her companion it’s a bond that really can’t be reduced to just usefulness in combat…
those two have been though so much together and they don’t even interact almost at all in Yashahime season 1 despite Kirara being present for so much of it! Not even just occasionally seeing her go back to Sango to spend time with her every so often at least! And heck for “utility” you’re telling me a woman with so many kids in an era before cars WOULDN’T find a huge cat you can load everyone on to to fly around to be a HUGE connivence?
It just gets me so mad….as someone who really loves Sango (and Miroku and Mirsan too!!!) who really wanted to see what they’re up to in the em sequel to see THIS happen. Heck we barely get to see her in season 1 at least (I still have season 2 to watch) despite seeing a good amount of Miroku…I would’ve loved to see them back in action together! And to see how their family life would look based on what would actually make sense for those two characters and not just forcing them to fit tired gender sterotypes they never DID fit in Inuyasha….It’s just : /
#that’s what i DON’T get#sango was a badass who fought tooth and nail and she was fierce as fuck#it doesn’t make sense that now she’d just stay in the village to help run it#KOHAKU was more suited to that esp cause he was more of a pacifist even before they met naraku#he wasn’t particularly skilled and cared more about supporting his sister than fighting outright#she should be the one out there training everyone#she’s the one who actually learned all the fighting techniques!!#kohaku only really got the basics and he learned it all from his mentors aka SANGO#she didn’t use a similar weapon but she taught him all the slayer traps and other techniques#she should be playing a more active role it doesn’t make sense that now she’s a passive SAHM background character that cooks and cleans for#unless it all gets explained later in the plot#this doesn’t make sense for her#and to find out her closest friends’ child grew up alone and abandoned and didn’t know hardly anything about her parents??#the sango we all know wouldn’t take that laying down unless it HAD to happen#she loves fiercely and she’s a protector and it don’t make no sense#that’s part of why miroku gave up being a piece of shit for her#cause she’s fucking AMAZING and she doesn’t take shit laying down#i like yashahime but i really wish it focused more on the OG cast rather than the kids of some side characters#it’s missing that interesting strong female lead vibe that inuyasha had#ofc it’s not even written by the same person and i get that#but it feels like the new writers didn’t pay much attention to the old cast or even the old show when making yashahime#probs to establish independence from it#but if you feature those OG characters you gotta keep them the same or the old fanbase is gonna feel cheated#i’ll be honest i just watch the show for moroha anyways. she’s so fucking funny and perfect lmao#and i grew up on the eng dub and it’s hard to listen to kagome anyways with such a high pitched nasally annoying sounding replacement#they haven’t even established or explained or shown at all how sess and rin managed to fall in love either#i always knew it was gonna happen but seriously? no mention? or hint? or story?#rin was interesting and one of a kind and unique too but now she’s just a silent and generic damsel in distress#she used to be funny as fuck and spunky#where did that all go?
