Four Inu-Yasha theatrical features pit Valu, Rumiko Takahashi "feudal fairy tale" against new enemies: the search for the shards, Shikon Jewel calculates the wayside as Kagome, Inu-Yasha, Shippo, Miroku and Sango get to grips with these supernatural enemies. In Affections Touching Across Time (2001), Kahvihuone the demo Menomaru will seek to recover powers of his father, who was defeated Inu-Yasha's father tried during the Mongol invasion of 1274. The Castle Beyond the Looking Glass (2002) evokes the Japanese legend of "Tale of the Bamboo Cutter," when the Kaguya, arguing that the show is legendary Moon Princess. Swords, honorable ruler (2003) reveals that the Inu-Yasha's father, the Great Dog Demon is not in possession of two but three of swords: Tetsusaiga, Tenseiga, and Sounga, in relation to Earth, heaven and hell, respectively. When the Sounga is accidentally released its aura raises the soul Takemaru, the Samurai who were murdered on Inu-Yasha's mother. Roisto on Fire-Mystic Island (2004) are the Four War Gods, a high level of demons and the island of Houraijima to maintain and increase their power by sacrificing the half-demon children. The later films are darker and more violent, even though the leaders balance the mayhem against the well-known comedic elements, in particular, Kagome, and Inu-Yasha squabbling. Features all reflect a larger budgets than the TV series, such as the filmmakers use a variety of CG effects: explosions, lightning bolts, insects, monsters and strangling the roots of trees. Affections Touching Across Time stands out as the handsomest, movies, models, which suggest that the woodblock prints of Kawase Hasui. The set includes a CD-Rs, movie soundtracks, and the booklet, which is a traditional Japanese instruments, they feature, even though more information about the composer Kaoru Wada would have been nice. A is a new, Inu-Yasha fans.
Bztold me that this is a very nice box set. If you don't want to wait for the rerun from TV, this box set is a pretty good bargain for $30 bucks. There are some extra in the set but nothing is special. Bz would like to see some interview with the casts but there is none in this box set.
The package is ok but it is kinda tough to get the disc out. You can easily break the disc when you try to "pry" it out from the case.
Story wise, Bz is sorry to say that there isn't anything new added to the TV series. The movies are just yet another side quests. They are ok but not great. If you have seen it once, you have seen it all kinda thing.
The only thing Bz doesn't like about the movies is that the characters from the first 3 movies are not drawn like the original characters from the TV series. The characters from the first 3 movies look bad. The characters from the TV series are full of life with emotion you can see from their facial expression. They are very well animated for TV. Unfortunately, the characters from the movies are like bad cartoons that are badly animated (rather than good "anime"). For instance, Kagura looks like a kid from Gundam Seed rather than looks like a beautiful woman from the TV series. Lord Sesshomaru doesn't look like a "lord". He looks like a punk instead. The 4th movie, on the other hand, is a little bit better animated and look closer to the characters from the TV series.
DynomiteWins said that "Inuyasha: Complete Movies Box Set (2002)" is such a great deal considering that each movie sold on it's own is about $15. You get all 4 movies for $30, with some fun extras and the options of watching in Japanese or English. There is another movie box set out there that is much more expensive and the only difference is a set of soundtrack CDs. The soundtrack is pretty impressive, but wasn't necessary for my personal use.
The movies themselves are fun - much like longer filler episode arcs with interesting villains and story lines. It's not meant to help the Naraku storyline progress, but you'll be in for some fun (especially if, like me, you've already watched the InuYasha TV episodes multiple times and are looking for something new and fun starring your favorite dog demon and Japanese school girl.)
The animation is different from the TV show - to me the characters look more "cutesy" but my husband, who is not that interested in the InuYasha series, enjoyed watching some of the major battle scenes and thought that the battle sequences were animated better.
Now all we have to do is wait for that final end-all fifth InuYasha movie, and we'll all be happy.
