I’m morbidly curious, what’s this Drama CD you mentioned about and why is it bad?

Ah, not touching that one then. Though on the subject, do we have any idea how long after the original series Yashahime opens on before we jump ahead 10 years?

Willo567 posted:Are the voice actors for Final Act still active? I know that Kagome's VA in the original series retried, and they weren't able to get Sesshomaru's for Final Act Richard Cox (Inuyasha) hasn’t done anything since 2017 it would seem but I’m not sure about the rest. Would there be any actors on the Japanese side of things where there might be an issue getting them back?

Sort of surprised Kaede’s still kicking at this point honestly, wonder how much of a role she’ll play.

In fact, I believe there was even one story that never got adapted at all (I seem to recall it involving Sango and a medicine man taking place right around the gap where the original series ended and Final Act began). Don’t think it was anything particularly important mind you but still. Out of curiosity, what did Rumiko think of the anime adaption anyway? I know she wound up canonizing one of the OCs from that series at any rate (Koga’s fiancée who I forget the name of).

Yeah I liked the anime well enough myself but the manga was better in terms of overall characterization (even though it probably could have been shorter than it was and for some reason even the manga had filler arcs) As you said though, Takahashi seems to be directly involved in the script for this new series which is a good sign in my opinion. Related, was the series Rumiko started after Inuyasha any good? Also, is she working on anything currently?

Neat, have Rinne and/or Mao gotten anime adaptions? And if so, are they worth watching or would it be better just to stick to the manga?

On another note, did the Ranma 1/2 anime ever actually finish the manga at some point like Inuyasha eventually did? If not, they could potentially bring that back one day as well.

Willo567 posted:The anime never covered the remainder of the manga. There was an OVA released in 2008, but that only covered one story for the manga. Ah that’s right. I forget, did Ranma just kind of stop at some point like the original Inuyasha did or did it go the way of Soul Eater and the first FMA anime where it abandoned the manga entirely and wrote its own ending?

That said, I always thought Inuyasha had some missed potential that possibly could have been done better in the hands of another writer (like an explanation for how the Bone Eater’s Well actually works and why Inuyasha, Kagome, and that one centipede demon from the beginning seem to be the only ones who can actually use it). But overall I think she did a decent enough job regardless. Was Inuyasha her first story that was a bit more serialized than her usual work?

Yeah, to be fair we don't know yet where Inuyasha is currently or why he suddenly disappeared. Speaking of which, I'm kind of curious who the bad guys are going to be this time and what the gimmick is now that the Shikon Jewel was wished out of existence thanks to Kagome.

MonsterEnvy posted:I imagine the villain will be a Naraku type figure. Also I don't remember, but did we ever see Naraku's form before he took on his pretty boy appearance, or was that always covered by the baboon mask. I think we only ever saw Onigumo bandaged up but I seem to recall an arc where Naraku briefly made a detachment based on his former self and they looked more or less identical. Off the subject, how far into the manga did the Ranma 1/2 anime actually get (counting the 2008 OVA)? Larryb fucked around with this message at 14:05 on Sep 26, 2020 |

Yeah, this is a good opportunity to explore the nature of this world in a bit more detail. Whether or not they’ll actually go for it however remains to be seen.

I don’t think it’s ever explained how the well works and why only certain people can use it (which is odd because you probably could have made an entire story arc out of that concept alone). Like I said, hopefully Yashahime will wind up going into a bit more detail,

It was mostly just an adaption of the bonus chapter Takahashi did for the manga but not a bad start regardless and I like the OP. Any idea who Miroku’s new VA is (also did all the other characters retain their original actors)?

I like that Moroha is basically girl Inuyasha (even down to the voice). Towa seems fun as well while Setsuna appears to take after her dad.

Going by Wikipedia, Cox hasn’t done any acting work since 2017. Not sure about the others though (we also don’t know how much the old cast will have to work with going forward now that we’re done with the pilot), but it would be nice if they got back as many of the old actors as they could. Moneca Stori (Kagome) and David Kaye (Sesshomaru) are likely out of the question but their Final Act replacements weren’t that bad.

Willo567 posted:So am I the only that was impressed with Miroku's new VA? He sounded close to how Kōji Tsujitani did in the original and Final Act Yup, he sounded almost identical to me. Nice job on their part (now the only question is how much said actor is actually going to get to do going forward).

For a second I forgot the backstory and actually assumed Towa was Kagome’s kid as she kind of struck me as a slightly more confident version of her. Setsuna and Moroha definitely take after their dads though (also I appreciate the latter’s VA doing her damndest to imitate Kappei Yamaguchi‘s performance).

Willo567 posted:https://twitter.com/AIR_News01/status/1314025732750807040 Though to be fair, Boruto is based on a monthly manga that’s still running while this is 100% anime only. That said, this seems kind of short but as long as the story and pacing are decent this could still work. We’ll see I guess.

And today the show starts for real showing the origins of our new protagonists and what appears to be a Shikon Jewel replacement of some kind. Nice episode though, Setsuna sort of a reminds me of a female version of Yusuke from Yu Yu Hakusho in a sense. Also I can’t tell but is Kagome’s grandfather still voiced by the same guy?

Nice episode this week, Moroha is definitely her father’s daughter (only slightly less abrasive) and they finally (somewhat) gave us an explanation on how the well worked (still doesn’t explain why only Inuyasha and Kagome could use it though). I’m also still wondering what the deal is with the three jewels the girls have in their eyes. As for next week, bringing back Kikyo is an odd choice but we’ll see how it goes.

Fangz posted:Okay, I'm calling it now, I reckon Towa and Setsuna are from the future relative to the "Feudal" timeline, so the Rin we see this episode is a Rin *before* she gave birth to them, and Sesshomaru is working with Kirinmaru to try to change this past somehow. Haven’t watched the new episode yet but does it confirm that Rin is in fact their mom?
