And Kagome actually cares about other people, instead of being a succubus that feeds on the suffering of those whom she pulls into her orbit like Bella.
So I memorized most of this and then preformed it in front of my drama teacher today and he wants me to do that for my final..... I hope that's alright
+The Palmtop Tiger HAHAHAHAHA! That's brilliant. Only true anime watchers would understand what a hackjob and ripoff Twilight is. I need to watch more anime.
The primary and most wonderful difference is Bella verses Kagome. Bella is sarcastic, sullen, NEVER tries anything new for fear of being rubbish at it, thereby weak, frightened and completely glorifies Edward. Kagome, on the other hand, is optimistic, ALWAYS tries to give new things a try and never gives up, is stubborn and forth-right, brave even in the face of danger and constantly bickers and teases Inu Yasha, treating herself as an equal. Kagome is AMAZING. Bella is just...ugh, nevermind.
I'm an Inuyasha fan, but objectively, this is extremely true. Although, Kagome can handle herself on a day to day basis without tripping, and she knows how to smile occasionally.
Kagome also has this mysterious thing called a "personality", and Kagome also doesn't drive her father to alcoholism and her boyfriends to suicidal tendencies.
From what i hear, the voice of kagome is from one of the InuYasha Episodes. "See that wasn't so bad was it?" Then the sound that follows is what we always hear when shippo jumps
Well InuYasha was originally voiced by Justin Cook, who also voiced Yusuke Urameshi in Yu Yu Hakusho as well as Raditz from Dragon Ball Z, both of whom are voiced by Lanipator in abridged anime versions. If anyone could get InuYasha's voice just a little bit closer, it'd be him.
Im reading through the comments, and i must say this... I have watched twilight, and the inuyasha series. I dont need to argue why because you can look it up yourself; There is NO diffrence between twilight and inuyasba. The fricken author of twilight was INSPIRED by Inuyasha. Now, The author did make a little diffrence to the twilight books, so it would be more focused for the females. In conculsion, there are minor diffrences, but the plot is the same. you cannot argue with facts. Twilight is a copy of inuyasha. The End.
Congratulations. You have identified the "Lovers Triangle" trope, the "Bad Boy Side Piece" trope, and the "Behind The Scenes Evil Mastermind" trope. Got anything to say about those tropes, or are you really just pointing at them and saying *EXISTS* !
Agreed, why chose for a vampire or a werewolf if you can get gold eyes, fangs, fluffy ears and K9 in one? (Plus there are also the 63 similarities that I could find with Danny Phantom, another one of my favorites.)
What amazing abilities? Bella had no powers. Kagome was inherently powerful but needed to grow into her confidence with it. The self-insertion issue aside, (I dont know Rumiko well enough but sure why not), I'll give you that shes somewhat shallow. Sometimes she abused her power over Inuyasha, but she was actually relevant to a bigger storyline. She put herself in danger to save others. She sacrificed what she believed was important and took risks for others. Bella was an indecisive trophy girl.
If i remember correctly, there was a woman who wrote a book that had the same story as Twilight, but the genders were reversed. So, you have a teenage guy, being chased by a immortal gloomy looking female vampire and a buff tomboy were wolf.
Well except for Koga being the series equivalent to Jacob. Thanks, Yashahime's two incompetent clods for perverting Rumiko's original vision just so you could pander to a section of Inuyasha's fanbase that should've stayed ignored!
Inuyasha and Twilight, two romance series I strongle dislike, are scarily similar... There needs to be a name for this kind of romance fantasy genre! =D
He's referencing to the whole Victoria decides to suddenly make a shit-ton of vampires to kill the wolves or bella or something in the third book cause she's pissed they killed her lover. So yeah. It happened.
It does nothing for its flaws. It just leaves them to air and fester. Inuyasha sprays it with awesome, covers it with comedy and you get a fightscene flavored Lolly Lolly Lolly, get your adverbs here! Lolly Lolly Lolly, got some adverbs here! Come on down to Lolly's, get the adverbs here! You're going to need If you write or read Or even think about it. Lolly Lolly Lolly, get your adverbs here! Got a lot of Lolly, jolly adverbs here! Anything you need And we can make it absolutely clear!
Twilight didn't have a huge battle at the end, all they did was train and gather allies to prepare for a possible fight. There really was no point to it at all. They all just went home. I unfortunately know this because I was deeply pressured into reading the whole crap. I re-read the whole Harry Potter series again just to feel decent again.
Very true, but I think the reason for that is that everyone is busy hating all the other terrible bullshit happening in Inuyasha to particularly care about that aspect xD
:P Of course that's what I meant. It seems to be usually referred to as a genre, so that's how I describe it. I think my comment shows that I know the range of themes in the different shows/movies.
God damn, this is the funniest thing I have seen all week. Also, it's sad, but true. I don't much care for Inu-Yasha what with some un-named person's influence... But still, it's like this Meyer lady stole plot points from pretty much everywhere, and still managed to shit on it to no end. Twihards can go die in a fire. I got to admit though, I would like to meet this Meyer lady. I would love to pick her brain. By that I mean figure out if she actually knows anything about literary composition.
XD That was awesome. I used to like Inuyasha but then I realized it was the same damn episode over and over again. (Or insert arrow to the knee joke, I don't care.)
lol Koga never stopped smiling, even when Kagome fainted XDDD so your saying the Twilight series aurthor coppied of of Inuyasha since Inuyasha started first?
So shes so shallow that shes actually hollow inside? The shield you mention, is this like a forcefield or a mental barrier or just a dramatic shield? The origin of her power keeps perfectly with the mythos of the show. You ignore one very important detail. There is not one main character but two. As much as Inuyasha must come to terms with Kikyo's death and his on place as a halfbreed orphan further more of a great lord, kagome has to come to terms with playing second fiddle to a dead girl-
Thank you for quoting me. Godzilla, Indiana Jones, Jurassic Park, Back to the Future, Men In Black. None of them created fantasy worlds. And, arguably, none of the others, with the exception of Star Wars and Star Trek, created a "world". I'm surprised you didn't mention LotR, as that's probably the best example. Live-action movies are constrained by the fact that they are... well... live action. You can do whatever you want with animation. And Hollywood just means the film industry.
I'd give the author the benefit of a doubt that the similarities are coincidences... after all, there have been crazy coincidences before, and certain tropes like "girl hooks up with hunky monster-man" just sort of... happen a lot XD Granted, this was very amusing
And what IS the origin of her power? Inuyasha is a main character the same way Edward is. His growth is just as badly written, in which he has a huge cliche chip on his shoulder, one that's rarely directly addressed or subtly taken care of but one that he TELLS the audience about, and the girl apparently FIXES him despite the fact that we don't see her actually help him overcome emotional hurdles. They just hang out and suddenly he's socially and emotionally better, just like Twilight.
Kikyo was the only character in the show that wasn't an archetype, really. She was the only character in the show in which both her flaws and good qualities were explored. Had the show been in the hands of a more capable author, she would have made a much better protagonist then the cliche mary-sue that was force fed to the audience.
