INUYASHA ANIME NEWS
SEPTEMBER 13, 2004 - Inuyasha television series finale aired today!
Yes, according to Sunrise producer Machihiko Suwa's interview on Anime Scramble on Aug. 20, there likely will be more Inuyasha projects, but nothing further has been said. Websunday has also hinted that there will still be Inuyasha anime on the horizon, but again, no indication as to what direction it will take.
AUGUST 21, 2004 - A "first installment" of Inuyasha?
Yes, both Yomiuri TV and Websunday have been (rather ambiguously) saying that there indeed will be future Inuyasha anime projects.
It is very common for televised anime to end short of their manga counterparts and not follow through the ending. Yes, the last one-hour televised episode of Inuyasha did NOT end like the manga is going to end (being that the manga hasn't ended yet.) But while 166-167 IS being called the last episode, whether or not the series will continue through OAV (original animation video, direct-to-video) releases, or other unserialized televised episodes, or some other form (:P) hasn't been said or decided. According to the Anime Scramble interview, there will probably not be any production until after Guren no Houraijima is released this winter, though.

If you dont know what this Means It Means The Inuyasha Series May Continue
OMG I just read this and went Nuts

(If you cant tell Im over Obsessed with Inuyasha)
Any Way even Better Guren no Houraijima Or Fire on the Mystic Island Came out Last Winter so Im guessing they are already working on the Series
Is Any one else goin crazy Bout this News??

No offense, I mean, tons of people love Inuyasha, but Rumiko Takahashi really has a serious problem with not being able to finish a series.

Except for Maison Ikkoku. She did well with that one.

Inuyasha, however, is a series that would vastly be improved by a nice finale.

It's not that Rumiko Takahashi doesn't finish the series, it's that the keep running into her storylines and they have to make filler episodes, which inevitably leads to its cancelization. But, yeah, I can see what you mean - her endings are fairly up in the air (Ranma and Lum), but at least the two main characters do admit their feelings for one another... sort of.

In the case of Ranma 1/2 and Urusei Yatsura, Hell, you couldn't tell the difference between the "fillers" and the normal shows anyway - THEY'RE FRIGGIN SITCOMS!

Inu-Yasha on the other hand, her only long-term dramatic show, may have gone for TOO long. Best thing I think they can do for the "new" show is it be a sequel that covers only the final few volumes (apparently she's close to finishing it). After having done Rumik Theatre, The Mermaid Series, Ranma 1/2, Urusei Yatsura, and Maison Ikkoku, series that went on for long periods of times, or didn't have a continuous storyline really, it may be hard for her to apply a short-term story idea to something that apparently needs it.

20 years from now, someone may go back and redo Inu-Yasha; if they do, it'll probably end up being 75 to 100 episodes long, and all of the major arcs, Band of Seven included, will be touched upon. Until then, we just have to remember that Doraemon beats out all for length (2000+ episodes), and we'll sleep easy knowing that will never happen to another (we hope).

-_- Bleh, I wonder why people really decide to keep anime running as long as they can? It's called Jumping the Shark, no?

I wonder if Rumiko Takehashi WANTS Inu Yasha to last so long that it grats on people's nerves?

Fine, Mr. Fancy Pants, show off the fact that you're the only one who actually read the post.

That's a good question. The person I would want to ask is the creator of Pokemon. I have no idea why I keep watching it, it's been on for 7 years (in the States anyway)! It won't end. As for Inuyasha I'm watching it on CN so I haven't gotten to the end nor has it got on my nerves yet. I don't think another "installment" or whatever of it would be too farfetching because you know there are fangirls or at least one somebody out there who would watch it.
