Uugaaah. Why are you guys getting distracted by the festival? What happened to looking for Naraku?

It's okay every once in a while. Humans need to rest.

Geez Inuyasha, it's been a whole day since we last stopped to fart around and not search for Naraku! We need to recharge!

I wish I had a work week like that. Put in a day's work and then wander off for two days of rest.

You know, for as much as I'm willing to rag on the show (very) I actually enjoyed the pointless filler stuff in Inuyasha. I mean yeah, the plot didn't progress, but it never progressed in the storyline episodes either, and at least in the filler you could have some good humor or interesting character moments. Well, we've got some filler here in this game... and it managed to screw that up too. What, the programmers couldn't figure out how to put in a minigame or something?

Hell, even the manga had arcs/chapters that could be best described as “filler”.

Out of curiosity, I forget the name of it but was the series Takahashi did after Inuyasha any good? Also has she done anything else recently?

Rin-ne was supposedly pretty good. She also just started a new series earlier this year, MAO. It's about a junior high school girl who, wait for it, finds herself in the Taisho era accompanying a swordsman.

She could have comfortably retired after Inuyasha, too. Three of the biggest manga/anime series of all time right in a row and she was supposed to be one of the richest women in all of Japan. But nope, she kept on trucking and is still going even at her age. She has an amazing work ethic.

I just wish her Japanese estate would allow Viz to sell her manga digitally. I asked them on Facebook years ago and they said they'd love to sell Inuyasha digitally but the Japanese side won't let them. It's ridiculous in 2019 that Ranma and Inuyasha still can only be legally obtained in print.

Let's see what's up with Kasumi's sister.





Sorry.

What is it, Inuyasha?

Nothing's happened, there's just a terrible smell coming from over there.

Really?

I can't smell anything.

Inuyasha's sense of smell is superior to a human's

I see. Well, let's go find out what that smell is.



This place seems nice and not stinky.



ああ, もちろん.

I feel like puking.

I mean, it's just garlic.

Kyusuke: Ha ha ha. Of course, of course.

Is that garlic?

Can I get a clove or two?

Kyusuke: Yup. As stinky as it is, it's very nutritional. You guys wanna take one with you?

Yes please I love garlic.

Uh. Not today thanks. Ha ha.

gently caress off.

Kyusuke: That's too bad.

Uggg...

The smell got to him.

It must be tough having such a strong sense of smell, huh, Inuyasha?



Moving on, we encounter a shop.



Ryuuzo: Hey, traveler. You got a good eye to pick that out of everything.

A good eye? What does that mean?

Is this guy tryin' to pick a fight?

No. He's saying you chose well.

Oh! These big shoes?

Yeah I got them YEEZYS

Ryuuzo: They're called snowshoes. With these shoes, no matter how much snow there is, you can walk without sinking.

I learned about them in school.

Are snowshoes really that alien a concept

Ryuuzo: How about it? You want them, don't you? If you buy them now, I'll give you a good deal.

We don't need them.



Ichi: See, I told you not to buy those from the peddler. They're just in the way now.

Ryuuzo: I'm no good at this. Mmm...

I kinda feel sorry for him.



Ichi: If you need a place to stay, you can stay at our inn. It's not much, but you're very welcome.



Yeh sure.

Ichi: You're staying? Then come this way. It's this way. Make yourselves comfortable.



Do I really need to lay out the rest of it? We're going with Sango.



Shut up Miroku.



God, we EXPLICITY set up a hangout.



She went towards the field.

Thanks. I'll go see.



But, she looks so beautiful!

Pretty girl

Beautiful, no?

Huh?

This is my favorite field of flowers. What do you think?

Yes, it's beautiful.

Pretty girl!

Why do you look so spaced out?

It's so beautiful, I feel like it's taken my soul away. I didn't realize Sango was so very beautiful.

PRETTY GIRL

What's that all about? doesn't sound like you. Ha ha ha. What's up? Still spaced out?

Ha ha ha...Am I?





I don't care what poo poo this game tries to pull later, there was no heterosexual explanation for that scene.



We're up and we're heading deeper into the woods past the village.



There's mud, we can't go there.



Wolves? That means...

Puppies.

Yeah, scrawny wolves.

Small puppies.

Scrawny wolves?



Took a moment after this to change up the order a bit and have bae follow us.



If you go south, you head to what's basically Lost Woods. Don't get lost in it like I did for like 15 minutes before I realized we're not supposed to be here.





North is where we wanna go. Hey look, a shiny.



AAH!



RUDE

Wolf Demons. Is this your first time meeting them?

SANGO THE ENTIRE TIME I HAVE BEEN HERE I HAVE NOT LEFT YOUR SIDE WHAT DO YOU THINK

Yes.



Hey Kooooooooooooga.

You think you can do what you did and I'll just forget about it?

What? But, I've never met you before!

Don't pretend that nothing happened. I never forget a face. It's payback time for attacking my friends everyday!

Ah dangit it's probably that fool from Kasasagi! Remember that?

Attack? I never did anything like it!

Wait, Koga. This kid has been with us the whole time.

Move, Kagome. I'll lose face if I let her go.

My portrait tags for Koga and Kagome are almost identical and this is a fuckin' minefield.

I don't think he's going to listen to what we have to say.

Interesting. Now we'll get to see who's stronger.



We have to stop them.





drat, you don't give up.

I really don't know you. Please listen to me.

Shut up! I'll kill you whatever way I can.



No matter what you say, I can't listen to you.

Until we can prove to you that this kid isn't guilty, take me as your hostage.

Wait no Kagome.

Kagome?!!

Kagome?!!



Whatever you want.

Really! That means you'll become my girl.

Who does he think he is? That can't happen.





Kagome. You...

Alright, it's decided. Everyone, retreat!



So Kagome's gone now.

drat it. Wait!

Good bye, mutt. You can turn and run now.

Kagome!

drat. We need to go after them.

Then what's the use of her becoming a hostage?

Yes, I know, but...

First we should seatch the forest. According to Koga, they're being attacked every day. We may be able to find some clues.



And find clues we will next time!

Going from central Tokyo to roughly Fukushima (where I think Koga hangs out) is like 2 days (200km), probably 4 if you're just trekking during daylight hours. Kaede's village is/near Edogawa isn't it? My guess is they traveled at least sightly north from her village during their meandering. I doubt they are traveling that far between villages. If they were then they would have canvassed half of Japan by now.

I stand by my assertion of laziness. :colbert:

I will give Sango a pass, since she is the only one doing that walk while carrying an 80 pound boomerang and an arsenal of combat equipment (Kagome's randomly appearing comically large backpack notwithstanding).

Waffleman_ posted:

I mean, her and Miroku were away for a while when Anime first showed up. Koga's Kagome-boner could very well have caused them to run into each other during that time.

Still a stupid thing to ask though. Even for people that live in this time, I doubt Wolf Demons are an everyday facet of life.

What are you talking about? It's just two girls, hanging out together like they do every single time a free moment pops up, with one girl pulling the feudal equivalent of The Birth of Aphrodite while the other girl stands there and drools as her IQ is drained from the crushing weight of the heavenly beauty standing before her.

That's totally a friend thing.

That no one can solve at all it seems



That's when they come in on the double
Anime and Sango Mysteries~

Oh poo poo a dude.

Is that a wolf-demon?

Why is he on the ground?

I think you'll find that most of us are technically on the ground.

Miroku, let me teach you about gravity.

Be careful. It could be a trick.



God, big mood.

I guess we can't just leave him here.

Yes, we should at least try to mend his wounds.



It looks like he's waking up! Are you okay?



How are you gentlemen.

Wait a second!

He's afraid.

It's okay.

W-Demon: Don't come near me. Don't pretend nothing happened and try to attack me again.

What? I didn't do anything to you!

What's going on?

Something's really weird.

GUYS KOGA JUST SAID

IT'S WHAT WE'RE

AND KAGOME

Koga was saying the same things.

THANK YOU



W-Demon: You're lying. You came to finish what you started a little while ago.

A little while ago?

W-Demon: You were just attacking us! You attack us every day. Be prepared. Koga won't forgive you for what you've done.

But we just got here.



And Koga and his men are going after you.

So, I'm being falsely accused.

It seems that way.



That's America.

Wolf, please, let me heal your wounds. You don't have to believe me, but this medicine works.



W-Demon: You're...

What?

W-Demon: You're like the person that's been attacking us, but your scent and aura are different.

That's what we've been trying to say all along.

Shut up no you haven't.

W-Demon: S-Sorry.

That's okay. I'm just glad you've realized someone is pretending to be me.

Now all we have to do is clear up Koga's misunderstanding.

W-Demon: Well, I'll take care of it and talk to Koga.

Really?

W-Demon: Yes, in return for helping me. Well, I should get back to Koga. I'll see you later.



Oh lord he zoom.

Hey wait a minute! He's gone.

But he should let Kagome go now.

We should find out where Koga is.

Yes.



And down into the lost woods we go.



Oh no!

W-Demon: Run away!

Hey wait!



Follow those dogs!



A few minutes later, we get here.

W-Demon: Run away!

Wait! They ran away again!

As soon as they see you, those Wolf-Demons run away.



Third verse same as the first two.

Whoever is pretending to be you is doing some really awful things to them.

drat it! Let's just catch one of them and make them tell us where Koga's lair is.

That wouldn't be right. Then we'll really become the bad guys.

Watch the gently caress out people, we got some Spec Ops poo poo going on.

I know how you feel, but we have to be patient.

But...

Oh yeah! Can't you catch their scent?

Do you mean the Wolf-Demons' scent?

Yes. The wolf-demons have quick feet, so they can run away quickly. But if we trace their scent, then we can follow that to where they are.

Yes. The Wolf-Demons must have a lair somewhere nearby.

If there's a lair, then Kagome must be there too.

I see. How about it, Inuyasha?

Well, I'll give it a try.

The screen fades for a second.



Can't you smell anything?

The scent is too faint. If it was stronger...

He needs a stronger scent, huh. I wonder if there's anything we can use.



Let's regroup at the village.



Huh? I don't smell anything.

There's no mistake. It's that same smell. I feel sick just remembering the smell.

Are you talking about the garlic?

But the garlic field is pretty far from here.

Ugh...

That's definitely garlic, no doubt about it.

Hmmm....If he can smell the garlic this far away, we can use it to find the Wolf-Demons.

Good idea. If we can get some garlic on to one of the, Inuyasha can follow the scent even if he runs away.

It's worth trying.



Back we go.



This is also traditionally around the time in any playthrough of the game where I take my surplus of money and buy a buuuuuuuuunch of healing items I won't need. There's like 5 or 6 stores in the entire game, money builds up.



That's not the reason, but could you please give me the strongest smelling one?!

Kyusuke: Take whichever one you like.





Inuyasha doesn't look so good.

Well, he'll look even worse when we put our plan into motion next time.

Shut up, Shippo! I'll get you later. Uuggg...

You poor thing.

I need to find her quickly and give her a piece of my mind.

I think he is worried about Kagome!

Shut up! Oh! It's this way!

You can do it Inuyasha!

And off we go!



And on we stop!

The smell around here is really faint.

Isn't it this way, Inuyasha?



Haa.

What is is, Sango?



The Squid beefed it...

There's a swamp!

Too late.

I'm covered in mud.

Sorry.

It's not your fault.

This is bad. You need to change right away.

Change my clothes?

I love the implication that our clothes have been spotless til now.

We've got those pants from Grandma Kaede.

Another random literally translated family term.

Oh yeah. I hate being covered in mud, so I better change.



That was more than pants.

Hmmm.



Ughguhguhgughguhgughgughuhgh

Now we just go through the woods for a bit and I'm going to cut it because it's boring.



I hope Kagome is okay.

Of course she's okay! Let's go!



It's two.

What an unforgivable thing to do.

I don't know who did this, but I think he's nearby.



W-Demon: Ahh, ahh...

Are you okay? Let me heal your wounds. Everyone! This one's still alive!





Oh good.

W-Demon: What did you do to my friend?!

What?

W-Demon: This is terrible! I have to tell Koga.

Wait! We didn't do anything.

They run back into the cave.

They've mistaken us again.

No matter what, those Wolf-Demons will think that we attacked them.

I can smell the scent of Wolf-Demons around here. Kagome must be near here too. We can't waste anymore time. Let's go!









Hey girl.

Are you alright, Kagome?



You're not trying to take Kagome away without me knowing, are you?

What? You wanna fight, you mangy wolf?

Hey mutt, should I knock you down as well?!

There's that Wolf-Demon we helped.

W-Demon: Um, Koga...

Okay. No matter what your story is, it's not like I can believe you just like that.

W-Demon: You're right. And that girl looks exactly like the one that's attacking us.

You'll have to prove that she isn't the one that killed our friends. Or you can just hand her over to us.

You've already taken one girl today, what the gently caress.

...

Why won't they believe me? But we can't leave Kagome like this.



Maybe if we let him vent, he'll chill out.

Okay. I'll listen to what you say, if you give Kagome back.

What are you saying? You can't do that!

So, you finally admit that you're the killer.

I did not say that.

No, but I can't leave Kagome here like this anymore.

Do you realize what you're saying?

I do. If you give Kagome back, you can do with me as you please.

Oh! Then, I'll kill you! Come over here!

Well this is kind of an anticlimactic end, but I hope you all enjoted the LP.

I guess we have to teach him a lesson.

You idiots don't know how to listen.

Is this how it's going to end up?

Hey, wait...

Idiot! You're not the only one in this fight.

IT SAID TO LISTEN TO HIM WE WEREN'T GONNA FIGHT

Inuyasha...

What're you mumbling about? If you're on her side, mutt, then I'll kill you too!

Wait!

What? What is it now?

I know I said you can do with me as you please, but I take it back.

GOD I HATE THIS SCRIPT

What?

I can't prove to you that I am not the killer.



Perfect persuasion.

How can I believe you?

W-Demon: She thinks she's so smart. Let's get her now!

W-Demon: I'll use my fangs to tear you apart!

Koga is doing this for his friends. But I can't die either, because I have friends that love me and will suffer if I do.

W-Demon: Um, Koga...

Friends, huh.

Yes.

I see.



She's too much of a wimp.

W-Demon: Koga! Why all of the sudden?

W-Demon: Are you sure, Koga?

This silly girl couldn't possibly be the stealthy killer. The killer is someone else.

Thank you Koga, for understanding. So, can I go now?

Yes. I wanted you to stay longer, but...



She didn't do anything.

Hey mutt!

Whaddya want, you scrawny wolf?

Kagome is my girl! You can have her back for now, but you better not touch her.

Yeesh.

Who does this mangy wolf think he is?

Shut up! Kagome needs a man like me.



That goes on for a few more lines until Anime interrupts, and I'm gonna skip them because I've just made the executive decision that if I don't start summarizing the more pointless dialogue, I'm gonna go insane.

Haa...

I'll help. Let's find the killer quickly.

But how do we find the killer?

Can you think of anywhere nearby, where the killer might be?

If I knew that, I wouldn't have come after you!

I guess not. Hey, can anybody else remember anything?

W-Demon: We've looked in every possible place.

W-Demon: Yes, that's right.

Anime comes to the brilliant realization that since the killer is here, they must be close. Koga gets an idea and the wolves head off.



Let's follow him!



Inuyasha and Koga argue a bit more and I die a bit inside.

Also it turns out the only area they haven't checked is the big fuckin' swamp.



Inuyasha falls in like we did.

You, stop laughing!

It's no use.

Unless we can find a way to not sink in the mud, we can't go on.

drat.

Fortunately, I know a way!



...I think. I'm not sure if this will work.



It was like a minute.

With these, we can walk without sinking.

Now, we can avenge our friends!



Koga rushes off and we'll follow him next time.

It is sort of new content, but it also requires you to run through a large chunk of the game again just to get to it (and then proceed to finish the game). You gotta ask yourself if you really want to put yourself through this a second time, even if it is slightly faster.

Time for swamps.



The swamp is just a couple screens of swamp and a few random battles. You can kinda see where the roads are by the darker parts of the muck.





And on we go.



Oh, it's Utsugi, appearing for only the second time from 21 chapters ago.

That's Kagura and Utsugi!

Hey wait a minute hey wait a minute you weren't there.

Koga, are you okay?

drat. They used a strange power...



What are you trying to say?

It's been a while. I guess you didn't fall for our tricks, since you're all here.

This whole plot has been your doing, hasn't it?

That's their own fault, for falling for our tricks.

I don't understand what you were intending to do.

That's what you think. Let's get 'em.

Boss time!



Kinda! As you can see, Utsugi here is gonna put up a barrier on him and Kagura.



Easy enough to take care of, and we only need to worry about Utsugi's. Kagura's just gonna do Dance of Blades and Utsugi just casts Shikigami.



And once we do enough damage to Utsugi, the battle just ends.





drat, I missed!

Yeah RIP bro



Oh, it's the mask. Which I don't think is cursed and has no secrets.



Well, now there's not even a mask.



WHAT DA

That's my face!

What is going on?



It's a sword.

Why are you so tedious?



I'M OVER HERE ON THE SIDE WHERE YOU ARE YOU loving IDIOT

They're trying to confuse us again. It's just a demon.

Just a demon, huh?

It's not working. We should leave for a while.

I'm still not entirely sure what your aim is here.



OH NO

What happened?

A few more exclamations follow.

Who's that pulling my hand? Is that Inuyasha?

Let's get out of here now.

Oh no, Kagura is taking us away and not our good dumb friends.



This one is a bit more understandable since there were a lot of particulates in the air but again, Utsugi was significantly closer to Kagura than we were.

You had a hard time, didn't you?

Kagura thinks I'm Utsugi. Then, I'll pretend to be Utsugi. Yes.

Anyway, the Wolf-Demons aren't that big a deal. I thought I'd make it easier for myself by allowing them to fight with Inuyasha and then I'd take care of the rest of them.

Oh okay I guess.

I see. I hope she doesn't find me out!

You're sure covered in mud. Whatever. I'm going back now.



But, what should I do now?



We're behind enemy lines, folks. We'll formulate a plan next time.

Funnily enough, the DS RPG "Secret of the Sacred Jewel" did have a cursed mask as a major plot point. Not much of a secret around the Sacred Jewel though. And as for Utsugi's appearance, it should go without saying that this is one of the things that changes depending on if you're playing as a boy or a girl. Though it would have been kinda funny if they kept Utsugi as a girl and people couldn't tell the difference anyway.

Yeah, I probably should have mentioned that this is the reason Utsugi's gender is different depending on who you're playing.

Also one of them is wearing lipstick, red/white hakama instead of pure red, a different belt, and a more elaborate kosode. How in God's name would you confuse the two of them, even at a glance? That goes for you too, Kagura.

I still have that game, but I honestly don't remember a thing about it. That's pretty funny though.

At least Kagura is just as moronic as the party. Makes it feel more like a comedy of errors than one side forgot to turn on their brains when they woke up this morning.

"Tear apart a unified world" is a pretty interesting sounding attack.

Yeah you use it maybe three times in the entire game in incredibly telegraphed situations.

I know that Animes last few lines are said half in her head, half out loud, but it's much funnier to think that Anime said, out loud, "KAGURA THINKS I'M UTSUGI SO I GUESS I SHOULD PRETEND TO BE HER" and Kagura thinks

"ah yes"

"that is totally a normal thing for Utsugi to have said"

I like to think that the villains are as desperate to get rid of Utsugi as the heroes are to get rid of Anime, so Kagura just pretends not to hear Anime say that out loud.

The "no homo" Sango friendship route has inspired me.

Please enjoy this piece of "quality" fanart. (Ya'll remember the "oh Mr.Darcy" comic, right?)



EDIT: I was trying to figure out why Anime looked so weird in the fourth panel, and then I realized that I drew her thumb on the wrong side of her hand.

ha ha

I'm good at art, you guys.

Holy poo poo yes.

Also sorry about the inactivity after the big cliffhanger. It's a busy time of year and I wasn't able to get the backlog I wanted to push through the season. I'll try to have at least one more out by the end of the month.

Happy New Year, y'all.

Sorry about the extended hiatus but now that I have a chance to get my life back together, I'm gonna resume pretty soon. I've got all the footage recorded, so it's a straight shot to the end from here, plus I can use the extra time to record for my next project....look forward to it...
