Inuyasha, Volume 20

People, if you gave this book, or any of them, for that matter, a bad rating because of murder, nudity, blah, blah,blah, then please, you must understand, like someone before has said, that Japanese culture is different than ours. Also, if you're offended by that, watch the stupid version of InuYasha on the otherwise awsome ADULT SWIM!! Get to know something before you buy it! Watch the show!!!!

Buy this manga, it's excellent, Inu Yasha is a great series. It's amazing how Rumiko Takahashi manages to keep up such a good pace, and believe me folks there up to manga 40 in japan in it's still great. Takahashi san stated that she is going to to 500 chapters or more, at the present moment she is up to chapter 420 or 421. Also, people who gave this one star, STOP COMPLAINING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If you find the nudity and violence so offensive then dont read the darn book!!!!! Also don't you have anything better to do than complain about a comic book, I mean it's not even very violent, it's like 13 and up, so I have no idea what people are complaining about. Also if you have problems with a little thing Inu Yasha being too violent, don't expect to watch much anime during your lifetime. Well all said and done, Inu yasha rocks, and it will continue to do so!!!!!!

First of all, let me respond to the previous reviewers. Japanese culture is NOT American culture, therefore familiarize yourself with the material before you buy it. Many kids have been exposed to Inu Yasha on ADULT SWIM on Cartoon Network. Yes, this is meant for adults! It is violent, and there is cussing. Please be informed before you write a nasty review. Secondly, a certain level of maturity should be used when reading manga that contains nudity. Again, the Japanese culture is more accepting of nudity, and does not directly sexualize it the way American culture does. We're all born naked, you know, so get over it or read something else. Being naked isn't bad, you know. Lastly, I thoroughly enjoyed this latest installment of Inu Yasha. Rumiko Takahashi just gets better and better, and I can't wait for the next issue to continue the story.

Well, I'm a freak for Inu so there you go. But, the plot of this book is quite exeptional. Inu-Yasha finishes his battle with Ryukotsuse and gains complete ownership of the Tetsusaiga, because he has foregone his father's acheivements. Kagome wages a war with the evil priestess Tsubaki. Tsubaki has been promised the shikon jewel in retern for her work, and Kagome is under the evil curse of the priestest. But, Inuyasha is protected by Kikyo's still unresting ghost. Will Kagome live... well, you can probably figure that out considering there has to be kagome but the way she lives is quite marvalous. If you like Inuyasha YOU NEED TO READ THIS VOLUME!!!!!! It's great. All of my friends are jostling for a position to read it considering I'm the only one who has this book so far! Well, that's my review (no i didnt copy it off the back of the book!) and I hope it was super useful to you and your shopping cart!!! :)

This is book 20, most people think this is book 21, and so did I, because of the release date. But, I bought it and it arived at my house as book 20! Ok, know that that's outta the way, this is a great book, one of my favorites so far bacause Inu-Yasha is starting to be nice, and adorable!! Well, he was always adorable lol!!!
