"The anime’s been announced, but now you can sink your canines into some more juicy tidbits about the show. The anime stars Towa and Setsuna, the twin daughters of Sesshomaru who get separated in a forest fire. Towa ends up in modern times and is raised by Sota Higurashi, Kagome’s little brother. Ten years later, they are reunited, but Setsuna is a demon slayer with no memories of her sister. Joined by Moroha, Inuyasha and Kagome’s daughter, they set off on an adventure to regain their missing past."
I'm concerned. Inuyasha is a classic and this looks pretty bad.
As a new/next generation kind of sequel series it looks harmless, and a fine way to continue the story for new and old fans alike. After Naruto > Baruto and such, is this really surprising?
Not sure if I would bother with this until the dub comes out, though may check out the first episode in sub at least out of curiosity.
Anime doesn't really need to "evolve threats" though.
I feel when there's a continuation like that it shouldn't try to be "way more" then what the parents went through because it devalues what they did.
Like Boruto is a great example, its more then just "being upset that Boruto is stronger", it's the fact that Naruto grew from a little kid to an adult, started off weak asf, and then grew into an ultra powerhouse, we see some stupid shit like Boruto defeating an Otsutsuki in a clash, then have bonafide confirmation that not only does Boruto surpass his father by leaps and bounds (despite Naruto defeating by far the most powerful beings in his verse by far), but Naruto apparently dies? Okay, thanks for that Kishimoto.
It's almost like he forgot what quality was, but at least it LOOKED somewhat promising and for Naruto it did make sense for it to continue the story.
This looks like a blatant cashgrab that looks subpar from the first trailer, when the trailer looks shit, you know thats a bad sign.
Far as Inuyasha though, have they already shown a new threat here that is implied to one-up Naraku and the shikon jewel? Suppose that may be only a matter of time either way, but not something that would be done so easily, after how long they dragged Naraku out.
The trailer for this was eh, but would need to see the first episode or two of this new series to get a full feel for the execution. How powerful the new generation is or starts off as compared to the OG characters, etc.
Moroha would probably have to be my favorite of the new protagonists, and Kirinmaru is fresh and cool for a new main baddie, but yeah, liked it around as much as the original show for the reasons mentioned, having just finished the first season recently since I was waiting on the dub. Season 2 is currently in production.
