This one didn't really seem like a movie. It seemed like an episode straight out of the series, with some random villain everyone has to take down. Nothing new here, typical stuff you already find in the series. Kagome x Inuyasha, fighting. Inuyasha looking for Kikyo etc. There was nothing particular in this movie that stood out as "WOW" it was just some random villain. I did like the fact that Miroku and Sango have ALOT of action scenes. If you're a fan of these two characters you'd most likely enjoy the attention they got, of course in the end it's up to Inuyasha to save the say with his Bakuryuuha(Backlash Wave) and Kagome's arrow. We all question why the hell this doesn't happen early on but hey it's a movie, you gotta draw it out a bit. :p
Inuyasha Movie 2 - Castle Beyond The Looking Glass
This movie, while not as action packed definitely has it's memorable moments. The first battle in the movie puts a smile on your face, cause you've been waiting so freakin long. But after that battle, you're gonna be waiting even longer, cause that's the only battle you're gonna see for a LONG TIME. This looks like it's more of a character development movie, because all the characters split up for a given time and you get to see how they live. Until they need to reunite later to take down the big baddie, who was unleashed due to events early on in the movie. I don't want to spoil too much!!! I enjoyed this movie, the action wasn't always there but the moments there WAS action the movie definitely shined. Also it has some jaw dropping moments that you'd just never see in the series, so it got points for that. Definitely improved upon the first movies in every way.
Inuyasha Movie 3 - Sword of World Conquest
This movie was the fucking bomb. Movie 1&2 don't come close to how awesome this movie is, right from the start. This movie was full action, 24-7 from start to finish. Izayoi and Inu no Taishou, Inuyasha's parents, are having problems with a human named Setsuna no Takemaru. Apparently this guy had a problem with mononoke(demon) and humans being together. The movie has some of the series tied into it, Inuyasha's father Inu no Taishou has wounds from his fight with Ryuukossei(The demon that unlocked Inuyasha's Bakuryuuha(Backlash wave)). Which play a part in early events. There is also backstory given to Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru's swords, as well as a newer evil sword that the brothers actually have to unite against to defeat. That sword's name is Sou'unga, and boy is it powerful. The main shine(s) of this movie is you get to see Inuyasha's parents, Sesshoumaru ALL THE TIME, the non-stop action, the development between Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru. Hell the development in Sesehoumaru alone is enough to keep you interested, the guy is just so freakin cool. Definitely the best out of all the movies. I don't see how the 4th movie will compare.</div>
