Will she? :kermit :kermit :kermit

Every time we could have, it was hidden. Naraku in his first appearance wore that weird costume then he stole that priest's appearance and that was how he was for the rest of the series. We see Onigumo in flash-backs but only IIRC are shown below his face at best. Muso was also initially not shown before he stole that one gai's appearance.

She's done two mangas since Inuyasha ended, I don't think she has any interest in continuing Inuyasha anymore lol.

Unless she does what almost every mangaka of her era seem to be doing nowadays - seeing where the money lies and milking her cash cow for all it's worth :troll

Well it doesn't have to be a continuation or anything. Just something like release an official drawing or something on the side. Next year'll be after-all the 20th anniversary of the anime. Maybe then, even-though I do like the mystery about how he really looked.

Takahashi isn't anything like Watsuki. The only Inuyasha spin-off she's done since it ended is a special chapter for some earthquake event in like 2011, and she hasn't even touched Maison Ikkoku or Ranma 1/2 since they ended. :troll2

Tbf, Naraku wore the face of that castle lord for so long, he even had it in death. It's pretty much just his face at this point.

His name was Nawaki or something IIRC.

Actually she did at-least an OVA for Ranma 1/2 I think. It was part of an exhibition called Rumiko Takahashi theatre or something.

True about the face of that gai, but still when you think about it it's not his real face. There's a sense of ominousness about it.

His name was Kagewaki to be exact.

That was an animated feature which she doesn't draw herself, it's not like she did a spin off manga or anything.

Yeah, that's it. It's been some-time since I watched the series.

Really? I mean I'm not surprised about her not drawing it since it was animated but I thought she had something to do with the creation/writing.

Don't think she had any more involvement in it than AT did with something like Episode of Bardock.

She had plenty of successful manga before Inuyasha such as Ranma, Maison Ikkoku and Urusei Yatsura. She's not just a one hit wonder fag similar to Watsuki (Rurouni Kenshin) or Fujisawa (GTO/Shonan Junai Gumi).

Has it? I won't read it though. All 56 volumes of the original manga were enough for me.

Funny thing is a guy I chatted with online joked about an Inuyasha GT which will focus on Inuyasha's half-half-demon children :troll2

Now it's coming to life!

Truly fantastic news. I'm happy that your favourite series is getting a sequel.
