Favorite Inuyasha attack....

[*Sailor_Saturn*]

Whats you favorite Inuyasha attack? Personally mine would have to be Iron Weaver.... just the thought of Iron-hard claws tearing away at your skin makes me cringe..... but in a good way......... ;)

[Mikadzuki Tatsu]

You mean Sankon Tetsusou, known as "Iron Reaver, Soul Stealer," right? As for my favourite attack...I cannot say. I like most of his sword attacks. What's that newest one he has learned that looks so cool?

[Hankoubou]

Forgive my spelling, but is is Kongousouha?

As for me I am fine with the good old Bakuryuuha.

[Bakeneko]

Kuro-dono will like me for this... http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v104/Bakeneko-ouji/warai.jpg

KONGO~~SOUHA~~~~~~~!!!

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v104/Bakeneko-ouji/oowarai.jpg

It's spelled "Kongousouha." Why is not like that up there? Well, "ou" is a long "o" sound and since I stretched it out, I didn't need the "u." If I'd put it in there, the syllable would've sounded like "ooooooooh."

[*Sailor_Saturn*]

You mean Sankon Tetsusou, known as "Iron Reaver, Soul Stealer," right?



:rolleyes: Ok....I am anAmerican.... and I know absoluetely NO Japanese (thats only until I take that class in a month) So give me a break 'till then!!!
And I thought it was Iron Weaver, Soul Stealer........ but, maybe I'm wrong.

Well, at least I know I did spell it right, I just editted it because of your post, and since I know no Japanese I did not know your little grammar lesson.

Actually, I think it's "Iron Reaper, Soul Stealer." My error. And I only know that because I watched it subbed.

[mikosakura]

My favorite's Kaze no Kizu. It's a classic.^_^

[Bakeneko]

Viz's translation is "Iron Rever, Soul Stealer," which has very little to do with the real translation of Sankon Tessou: "Soul-shattering Iron Claw." Since I think the word "reaver" is so cool, I'd allow "Soul Reaver, Iron Claw," but they should just leave attack names alone.

[Greek Honeybee]

I think it's close enough, but that's just me. ^_^

And for my favorite attack, I like the Hama no Ya. Whether it be Kikyou's or Kagome's. Holy arrows just rock. :D

[meowchi]

Yeah, but that wouldn't sound as cool yelled out in english. :lol:
If they could leave the attack names in Kenshin, they should be able to leave for InuYasha.
Besides kids love calling a bunch of Jiberish when they are pretending to fight.

[ye_not_guilty]

Iron Reaver is cool, but I like Blades of Blood. And the new sword technique is the Backlash Wave. Sango's bigass boomerang is cool though.

[Bakeneko]

Oh? We're not just limited to Inuyasha's attacks? Well then, now I need to put some more thought in it...

[Greek Honeybee]

Eep! :O I thought Sailor Saturn was referring to the show itself, not just the character.

Well, then, I'll pick Kongousouha. ^_^ (Trying to make diamonds for Kagome...) :lol:

[Bakeneko]

Well, I'm not for sure. I'm pretty sure she's just talking about Inuyasha. I guess she can clarify later. If she leaves the options open, I might think of something else...

Darn RIGHT I love you for that, Bake-san. XD

Soooo... yep, my favorite attack is (drumroll, please)
KONGOU..>!!!1 SOU!! HAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!1

Although I have to admit I have an utter fondess for Juso-no-kamen's "Kuro-no-kizu." I'd call Inu's other lovely attack the "Kuroryuuha," except that it's not a combo. XD

Yeah, I'll get off the sugar-high next time I post. Mwhaha.

Although, I have to admit, I do have a fondness for Sesshoumaru's gymnast whips. Um, I mean... Sesshoumaru's poison whips. XD "Back, Simba! *whack!*"

[Bakeneko]

Aa! Kurobara no Sesshoumaru!

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v104/Bakeneko-ouji/oowarai.jpg

[Mikadzuki Tatsu]

Jeez, Kuro-dono, how much sugar did you stuff into your system during the course of the day? (Someone around here is excited...)

If we are not just focusing on Inuyasha's attacks, then I daresay that I have a fondness for Hiraikotsu. (Target: the face of the lecher... :devil: )

[Kagura Hakubi]

Inuyasha's personal attacks? Would be Hijin Kessou, I think... (Blades of Blood, or whatever they call it)

Other attacks? I'm torn between Sesshoumaru doing the kaze no kizu and Kagura's "Fuujin no Mai" (Dance of the Wind Blades).

[Bakeneko]

You prefer Fuujin no Mai to Ryuuja no Mai? Interesting...

[Kagura Hakubi]

I find it more æsthetically pleasing. I'm not sure why.

[*Sailor_Saturn*]

Oh? We're not just limited to Inuyasha's attacks? Well then, now I need to put some more thought in it...



When I said Inuyasha, I meant the show not just that character. What is your favorite attack from Inuyasha.

[Bakeneko]

Well, that changes things... I'll have to think about it a bit...

[kissthecajun]

Inuyasha's... Would have to be when he punches. To quote Shippo from episode ten, when Inuyasha was fighting Hiten of the Thunder Brothers: "It was simple. But amazing!"

But... Hmmm... Probably his usual claw attacks are cool, we don't get enough of them. Though Kaze-no-Kizu IS a classic... Tough choice... I'm still all for him punching someone. It's just so... Sexy!

Yes. I said sexy. :P

As for otherwise... I'd have to say Kagome's "sit".

::notices odd looks:: What...... It is a sort of attack....

I'm the only one with that opinion, aren't I?

Fine, the holy arrows. Kikyo's holy arrows rock. ^_^ Go dead girl.

As far as the villians front goes... Kagura rules supreme with her wind attacks. So nonchalant and deadly. Ah! Gotta love 'em!

[Hellmaster Inu]

Favorite Attack: Kaze No Kizu

Most Feared Attack: SIT! :crybaby:

[ChaoticSerenity]

Sesshoumaru's fangirl shockwave.

[Mikadzuki Tatsu]

Sesshoumaru's fangirl shockwave.
*roars with laughter* There is nothing more powerful than the attack of a pretty face...and the mad fangirls who would die defending that pretty face (which is what I am assuming you are talking about). ;)

Yeah.... I know thats right! Kagome could really hurt you with that.

[Bakeneko]

Oh, it takes a good half-dozen or so just to give 'im a bit of a sore back for a while. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v104/Bakeneko-ouji/nekojita.jpg

[*Sailor_Saturn*]

Yeah.... I know thats right! Kagome could really hurt you with that.

But, I think it would be catergorized under defense.

[ye_not_guilty]

she attacks Inuyasha by forcing him to eat dirt. I gotta ask the old hag where she got that, I could really use it on some friends of mine....:devil:

[Kagura Hakubi]

You find out later in the series. heh. later in the series. that's an understatement.

[noroku]

My favorite Inuyasha is the [COLOR=DarkGreen]Back Lash Wave :punch:

[Bakeneko]

Wait until you get the Kongousouha. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v104/Bakeneko-ouji/warai.jpg

[Brill]

Great, another ultimate attack. This is starting to get old. First, the Kaze No Kizu was the ultimate attack. That was replaced by the Bahryuha, as the final technique. Now it's Kongousouha. I understand the need for it, but instead of discoveing the new ultimate attack , how about discovering a new one. Wait, there's the new ultimate attack of the Tessaiga, "Summon jellyfish"...wait, wrong series. -_-;

[Bakeneko]

It's not like it happens every five eps or anything. The Kaze no Kizu was never said to be the ultimate attack of Tessaiga; it simply represented the sword's true power. The Bakuryuuha was its ultimate attack, as far as what Toutousai had built into the sword. However, Tessaiga has the ability to modify itself upon contact with large sources of youryoku. That's how he picked up the ability to use the Kaze no Kizu freely from Ryuukotsusei, the barrier-bustin' Red Tessaiga from the Chidama Sango, and then the Kongousouha from Housenki. There's nothing wrong with gaining new abilities.

Where does this little tidbit of info come from? Must be from a later episode.

[Inuyashayoukai2]

mine is Blades of blood

[Mikadzuki Tatsu]

In fact, I would not be surprised if the inutaishou planned for the sword to acquire new techniques as Inuyasha continued to master it. I also would not be surprised if the new techniques are not only acquired when exposed to large amounts of youryoku, but if the strength of the attack is based in part from the desire in Inuyasha's heart to protect those he cares about. Think about it: There is a direct relationship (graphically) between his growing feelings for Kagome and the strength of each new sword technique. There is also a direct relationship (again, graphically) between his desire to destroy Naraku, who has caused so many innocents so much pain, and the strength of each new sword technique.

[mikosakura]

You have a point there. I never thought of it like that, but it's true, the sword has grown more powerful as Inuyasha grows more commited to Kagome and his friends, as well as his desire to destroy Naraku.

[Bakeneko]

Which tidbit, Occhan? Upgrade #1 comes from Episode 54, Upgrade #2 from Episode 73 and Upgrade #3 in Episode 157. Since I know you don't care about the corresponding manga chapters, I won't bother.

[Brill]

Not a chance in hell. Those path are completely independent form each other. While the desire to protect humans was a requisite for its initial transformation, the series has revolved around the notion of brute power. Inuyasha gets the Kaze no Kizu then Naraku gets an impervious barrier. Inuyasha gets the red Tessaiga and Naraku gets an even stronger barrier that can deflect. It's just am ever climbing power battle. Nothing more, nothing less.

[Brill]

Which tidbit, Occhan? Upgrade #1 comes from Episode 54, Upgrade #2 from Episode 73 and Upgrade #3 in Episode 157. Since I know you don't care about the corresponding manga chapters, I won't bother.

That his sword is maleable to the presence of strong youryoku. I mean what did it draw out of Sesshoumaru. I can believe the premise I just want to know where Toutosai said it.

[Mikadzuki Tatsu]

That may not be the case. I was noting that as Inuyasha's love for Kagome grows, and as his desire to destroy Naraku for the sake of the innocents whose lives Naraku destroyed grows, so does the power of Tetsusaiga. And is not the sword connected to Inuyasha in some way? It makes sense to me.

[Inuyashayoukai2]

well of course the sword aids humans

[Mikadzuki Tatsu]

Aides humans? Don't you mean that Inuyasha, the only one who can wield the sword, can use it to protect humans? The only way it would aide a human is if that human's opponent is so weak that a thwapping from a rusted stick does some damage.

[Brill]

That may not be the case. I was noting that as Inuyasha's love for Kagome grows, and as his desire to destroy Naraku for the sake of the innocents whose lives Naraku destroyed grows, so does the power of Tetsusaiga. And is not the sword connected to Inuyasha in some way? It makes sense to me.

Then there would be no need to fight Ryokutsusei, or the bat-demons (whatever they'er called) to get more powerful. They'd just have to sit around and wait, and that clearly isn't the case. When Inuyahsa fight in tandem they are very powerful, but have nothing to do with the Tessaiga's own abilities.

[Mikadzuki Tatsu]

Part of the reason Inuyasha wanted to become more powerful was not just to defeat Naraku (though that's a big part of it), but because he wanted to be able to protect Kagome. It's kind of like a video game: There are ways to "unlock" special powers in order to protect your teammates and defeat the "final boss." So what I said still holds true.

[Bakeneko]

I think the reason it didn't draw any new powers when Inuyasha cut Sesshoumaru is because he has the same blood as their father and the pattern of his youki is too similar to Dad's. However, I would like to note that the fluff on Tessaiga steadily gets bigger as the series progresses. Maybe that's the ability Sesshoumaru gave to Tessaiga. (Since Sesshoumaru's fluff gets bigger as the series progresses, too... Tandem development. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v104/Bakeneko-ouji/oowarai.jpg)

Toutousai himself doesn't explain the principle, but Myouga does in 22.6 when telling Inuyasha about the Hyakki Koumori. It's also explained by Takahashi herself in the Ougikaiden.

[Mikadzuki Tatsu]

So perhaps as Tetsusaiga and Inuyasha get stronger, the fur at the base of Tetsusaiga gets larger, a sign of its growing power. As for Sesshoumaru's tail growing larger (and consequently fluffier :teehee: ), the only explanation I can come up with is that, as his respect for his brother grows and he starts fighting (indirectly) alongside Inuyasha, their father's wish of his sons getting along is closer to coming true, and perhaps it helps Sesshoumaru's form grow larger, a sign of his maturity and growing power.

[Bakeneko]

...Or that Takahashi liked to make things bigger and fluffier as she went along...

[Kagura Hakubi]

...

Bakeneko, you're a real romance-killer, you know that?

[Bakeneko]

Wakatteru yo... http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v104/Bakeneko-ouji/ase2.jpg

[Knives122]

Well to be honest with everyone, Ive never noticed Inuyasha's sword fluff grow, the only thing Ive notice was in the earlier episodes the sword would get big, then small, then big and then small again it was very annoying.

And about Inu's power. The sword was their fathers right? and they even said that the sword draws its power/controllability from the will of protecting heros. like someone said up in this thread earlier as Inu's will and determination for protecting the people he cares about grows, the power of tessaiga/tetsusaiga(however you spell it) grows. Im with that part, the whole part with Sesshomaru relationship with his father/brother is much more complicated. I think I remember hearing something on how Sesshomarus father wanted him to protect Inuyasha, well IMO aside from all the fights they've had in the series, he does it all the time; I think a good example of this was in ep. 157. Sesshomaru Imo subconscientially does all this stuff even though his excuse is "I dont care, you dont concern me, blah blah blah"

[Bakeneko]

Well, we're talking about the manga when it comes to growth of the fluff on Tessaiga. Takahashi's style changed quite a bit over the course of the series and the anime begun once she was a good four years into it, so you're not going to see such drastic changes. That, and the fact that the anime goes off standardized character design sheets while Takahashi is free to draw however fancy strikes.

As for being annoyed by Tessaiga's transformation, that's you're deal. Kinda hard to fit it in the sheath if it can't downgrade. Besides, it's a useful device on several levels. It shows who the proper wielder is, signifies the state of Inuyasha's power... You have to admit that no one would've doubted the sword's quality if you originally saw it in it's transformed state. But whatever...

Tessaiga didn't belong to their father. It was forged from his fang. Despite what the third movie would have you believe, I seriously doubt he ever touched either of the swords he left behind.

[Kagura Hakubi]

I think what Knives was talking about was the bit where he'd be holding it ready to fight, and it would be five-feet long, then he'd slash horizontally, and for the duration of the attack, it woudl be twenty-feet-long, then it would be down to seven-feet-long afterwards... and then all over the place next time he attacked... It's transformed size is nowhere near constant.

[Bakeneko]

Ah, if that's the case, then I can sympathize. Inconsistency can be really jarring. Totally kills suspension of disbelief...

[Greek Honeybee]

Tessaiga didn't belong to their father. It was forged from his fang. Despite what the third movie would have you believe, I seriously doubt he ever touched either of the swords he left behind.
Are you sure? Why would Myouga say that the Tessaiga was forged to protect Izayoi?

[Mikadzuki Tatsu]

Myouga DID say that the inutaishou had created Tetsusaiga to protect Inuyasha's mother. And afterward, it's possible that he put a ward on it so only Inuyasha could use it.

[Bakeneko]

Myouga's dialog says only that the sword was forged to protect Inuyasha's mother, he didn't specify who was intended to wield it. Dad didn't live too long after Inuyasha's birth and I doubt he anticipated she would follow him so quickly.

[Mikadzuki Tatsu]

Myouga's dialog says only that the sword was forged to protect Inuyasha's mother, he didn't specify who was intended to wield it. Dad didn't live too long after Inuyasha's birth and I doubt he anticipated she would follow him so quickly.
Actually, do we really know how much longer the inutaishou lived after Inuyasha was born? Inuyasha has brief flashes of his father, so my guess is that he was at least old enough to remember him. But you're right; I don't think the inutaishou expected Inuyasha's mother to die before their son had a chance to grow up and learn to wield the sword...and, of course, find out that it was hidden in his eyeball.

[Greek Honeybee]

But that wouldn't make any sense. How would the sword protect her if it's only purpose was to sit in a tomb until Inuyasha was old enough to use it himself several years later?

[Knives122]

no to be mean, but it was put in the tomb after he died

[Mikadzuki Tatsu]

But that wouldn't make any sense. How would the sword protect her if it's only purpose was to sit in a tomb until Inuyasha was old enough to use it himself several years later?
He probably didn't plan on dying as early as he did. No doubt he made the sword, then fought the dragon being (whose name I can never spell correctly and am not even going to attempt to) and died from his wounds. When he died, he decided to put the sword in his tomb, and then put the tomb in his eye, with the hopes that Inuyasha would find it one day, discover the power of the sword--its ability to protect those he loves--and protect not only his mother but others he cared about as well. It is even possible that Inuyasha's mother knew where the sword was, but she was not to tell Inuyasha until he was old enough to learn how to use it. Why she did not tell him on her deathbed if that is the case, then, one can only guess; but perhaps she had either forgotten, or her death was a quick one. (Since we don't know how she died.) But the inutaishou did not plan on Inuyasha's mother dying as soon as she did.

[Knives122]

I think his name was spelled like this "RyoKoutsei"

[Kagura Hakubi]

Ryukotsusei, if you want to be technical.

[Bakeneko]

I don't think Inuyasha was lying when he said he doesn't even remember his dad's face. Inuyasha knew the riddle of the location of the black pearl; it had just drifted deep into his subconscious. It's possible that it could've been a deathbed confession or something, but we have no way of knowing.

As for sealing up the sword in the tomb, how much good would it've done Inuyasha before he was old enough to wield it? On top of that, only a human could draw out the sword, so he would've had to've overcome his prejudice against humans enough to have one go along with him to fetch it. No, he wasn't able to protect his mother, but Tessaiga's purpose went beyond that. Yes, it was intended to protect her, but so was the Hinezumi no Koromo (see the Ougikaiden). As we've seen, Inuyasha has used these keepsakes to protect more than the one it was originally intended for.

[Greek Honeybee]

(see the Ougikaiden)
Dude, none of us can see the Ougikaiden except you. We have no idea what you're talking about. :P

Edit: Oh, the Fire-Rat cloak. Why didn't you say so? ^_^ That was intended for Izayoi? (Well, looks like the third movie got that much legitimately right about Inuyasha's history.)

[Mikadzuki Tatsu]

I don't think Inuyasha was lying when he said he doesn't even remember his dad's face. Inuyasha knew the riddle of the location of the black pearl; it had just drifted deep into his subconscious. It's possible that it could've been a deathbed confession or something, but we have no way of knowing.
That's true. Perhaps his mother had known the riddle, and there was hope that her son would be able to figure it out when he was older. But she died when he was too young to be able to understand what she was talking about; not to mention she was dying. What little boy focuses on a riddle when his mother is dying right before his eyes? So the riddle seeped into the back of his mind, and he forgot about it...but he did not forget the riddle itself--if that makes much sense.

As for sealing up the sword in the tomb, how much good would it've done Inuyasha before he was old enough to wield it? On top of that, only a human could draw out the sword, so he would've had to've overcome his prejudice against humans enough to have one go along with him to fetch it. No, he wasn't able to protect his mother, but Tessaiga's purpose went beyond that. Yes, it was intended to protect her, but so was the Hinezumi no Koromo (see the Ougikaiden). As we've seen, Inuyasha has used these keepsakes to protect more than the one it was originally intended for.
I guess that the inutaishou also knew that his son may end up with a slight prejudice against humans, or that he would not want to be with them because he would not want to be seen as weak. So he knew that his son would have to learn to overcome any of that. But I am not sure that the inutaishou was not planning on the boy's mother not being the one to help their son with those feelings. But it makes sense.

It is possible that, while the inutaishou originally designed the Tetsusaiga for the sake of protecting Inuyasha's mother, that he also wanted his son to be able to protect others he cared for. I would not be surprised if the inutaishou knew that his son was likely to fall in love with a human, as he did. (And perhaps the only reason Sesshoumaru will not fall for a human is because he absolutely refuses to. And the inutaishou knew that would be the case.) He wants to teach both of his sons that there is nothing wrong with humans and with protecting them--and in Inuyasha's case, that there is nothing wrong with acknowledging the human in him.

What is the Hinezumi no Koromo? You say the see the Ougikaiden, but I don't think many of us can. I, for one, have no idea what you are talking about, what other keepsake this is. Would you care to enlighten us, my lord? (And I should warn you that you already have me riled. It would not be wise to frustrate me even more, now would it?)

[Knives122]

yeah honeyguys right dont know what youre talking about

ELABORATE!!

[Bakeneko]

The Hinezumi no Koromo, also known as the Fire Rat's Cloak, along with Tessaiga, were left behind as keepsakes to protect Inuyasha's mother.

I realize that I'm just about the only one with the Ougikaiden for a reference, which is why I don't mind clarifying points I bring up from it.

Oi, omae, nande okotte'n no ka? Hey, why are you mad?

[Mikadzuki Tatsu]

Wait, that's what "Hinezumi no Koromo" means? The Fire-Rat Cloak? That was intended for Inuyasha's mother? I guess that makes sense, since it IS stronger than normal armour, and does fine to protect one from fire (as has been discovered many times). I do wonder, though, how Inuyasha got a hold of it...unless his mother told him to use it when it fit him. Perhaps she had it in the house. Or he found it after she died, and decided to use it, as a way to remember her by. Who knows?

[Mikadzuki Tatsu]

I realize that I'm just about the only one with the Ougikaiden for a reference, which is why I don't mind clarifying points I bring up from it.
If you realized that, then why did you say to see the Ougikaiden, when none of us can see it?!

Oi, omae, nande okotte'n no ka? Hey, why are you mad?
You know very well why I am mad...well, why I was originally mad. This just frustrated me even more. I'm trying to calm down.

[Kagura Hakubi]

By the way... what's with him wearing a mini-version of his current clothes as a jyari? I mean, I know he's not big on fashion sense, but...

[Mikadzuki Tatsu]

By the way... what's with him wearing a mini-version of his current clothes as a jyari? I mean, I know he's not big on fashion sense, but...
Perhaps this comes from me not knowing what "jyari" means (and not being able to find it), but what are you talking about?

[Kagura Hakubi]

heh.. Jyari is a little bit of osaka dialect I picked up off Samurai Deeper Kyo... normally it means "Pebble", but it has the same connotations of "little brat" or "kid" that Gaki does. I was talking about the fact Inuyasha wore the same outfit, but in miniature, as a child.

[Bakeneko]

If you realized that, then why did you say to see the Ougikaiden, when none of us can see it?!

It's called a citation. Maybe you'll learn about it when you get to college.

Wake wakaru nara nande kiite'n no ka? If I knew the reason, why'd I ask?

[Mikadzuki Tatsu]

*grinds her teeth* I know what a citation is, Bakeneko. What, do you think I'm undereducated or something? *temper flares* But how was I supposed to know you were citing your source? It didn't seem like it. And I'm probably not the only one who thinks that.

Wake wakaru nara nande kiite'n no ka? If I knew the reason, why'd I ask?
Heh! Good question, why did you?

[Bakeneko]

Well, Tacchan, call on your supporters who agree with you that I wasn't citing my source. If the majority's on your side, I'll give the point to you.

As for the other point...

Temee no kudaranee wake wakaranakatta yo, kono aho! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v104/Bakeneko-ouji/okoru.jpg

Yes, you get to translate that one yourself.

[Kagura Hakubi]

Er.. I thought you were telling us to go look.. so she's not alone...

And, while that's a rather long winded way of saying it, rather crudely... she is NOT a stupid bit.ch

[Bakeneko]

Where'd you get that translation of "aho"!? True, it's not the nicest thing for me to say, but isn't much more severe than "dummy" or "jerk."

I get tired of her getting upset at every little thing. She's just as bad as my sister. I've gone my whole life just taking the "I'm sorry, it's my fault" route, but I'm getting tired of it. Tacchan, if you're going to be so short-tempered, why do you continue to be my student. I don't ask that much of you, but it takes next to nothing to set you off. I try really hard to roll with the punches, but day after day of you being in a bad mood is wearing on me.

Well, you've got two in your corner counting yourself. Get two more and I'll admit that it didn't qualify as a citation.

[Kagura Hakubi]

"Aho" is a corruption of the american "arsehole" (yes, I'm using the english spelling even though it's an american word. That's because of the discrimination against donkeys that's so prevalent on the 'net.)

THAT is where I got that translation from.

Is that how you truly think of me? I'm sorry... *averts her gaze* I'm not...in a bad mood that often...am I? If it seems that way...I'm really sorry. I guess I just won't post when I'm in a bad mood. Then I'll spare all of you.

Do you really not want me as your student? If that's the case...then I guess I have no choice but to... *trails off*

I'm really sorry.

[Kagura Hakubi]

*looks at Bakeneko*

One "Jakken" comment and you burn.

*offers Mikadzuki a handkerchief*

Here... Dry your eyes or... let it out...

*gathers Mika into her arms, resting the taller girl's head on her shoulder*

[Mikadzuki Tatsu]

*shakes her head* I think I deserved that one... And since it is hard for him to punish me, I am going to think of a punishment myself, for myself. I've been acting like a spoiled brat. I do not blame him for being mad at me.

[Bakeneko]

Kagura, you're hare-brained etymology doesn't make things any better! "Aho" means no such think nore does it have any such derivation. "阿呆" is an equivalent of "baka" and was used to scorn flatterers.

Tacchan, I never said i wanted you to quit being my student, but it seems like you come on these boards with some baggage and the little things I do make me take the brunt of your frustrations. You probably do it 'cause you know I won't get mad at you compared to just about everyone else here, but even I have my limits. I'm not telling you to restrict your postings either. All I want you to do is to try not to wear your heart on your sleeve so much.

I'm just as wrong if not more so in this matter. I should've taken the high road and calmly talked you down instead of snapping back, but that's what happened. Whenever Occhan's text comes on the screen, 9 times out of ten it's going to tick me off. i usually keep this bottled up, but instead of letting that tako-jiji have it like he deserved, I vented on you instead.

I won't lie... It gets a little annoying to see you in a bad mood so often, but it's not something you can help, right? My existence doesn't go beyond the borders of this forum, so I can't possibly appreciate your situation properly.

*kneels*

Oyurushi kudasare... I beg forgiveness...

Actually, to tell the truth, just about everyone here at some point or another hits the wrong button. It just happens to be that you are here most often. It is also that I have pented up my anger for so long that now even the tiniest thing sets me off. I'm sorry. You should be getting mad. You need to be getting mad. I deserve to have someone blow their top off at me.

You're not wrong at all. I do not blame you for snapping back at me. Like I said, I truly deserved it. Take no blame. It is entirely my fault.

It's because I tried to keep my anger to myself in the past. I guess now it is all coming out, eh? (Of course, it helps none that having to spend all day with some of my relatives raises the boiling point...) So that is my fault.

*kneels*

Oyurushi kudasare... I beg forgiveness...
Stop that! There is nothing to forgive you for! You did nothing wrong--absolutely nothing wrong! I'm the one who should be begging for your forgiveness...only right now I don't think I deserved to be forgiven. And I still think I need to be punished...

[Bakeneko]

Well, you forgot who you're talking to. You don't even need to ask for forgiveness with me. It's freely given.

We were both letting external factors get on our nerves and ended up going off on each other. It's not right, but it's human. We're both over it, we see the fault of our ways, so it's all good. Genki dashina. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v104/Bakeneko-ouji/warai.jpg

[Knives122]

Isnt this suppose to be a thread about our favorite inuyasha attack :teehee:, oh well what can you do?

[Mikadzuki Tatsu]

I still think that you should not forgive me so easily, but I guess I have no control over that, do I? I'll do my very best not to take out external angers on anyone who is not involved...and that is a promise. (And if I break that promise, please do me a favour and smack me for it.)

[Bakeneko]

I'll see what I can do about that. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v104/Bakeneko-ouji/warai.jpg (Be warned: the beatings are a common practice in my household... We are well-trained... http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v104/Bakeneko-ouji/warui.jpg)

[Knives122]

is that a good thing or a bad thing for us?

[Mikadzuki Tatsu]

Don't worry. It's my heart and soul that is sensitive, not my skin. Just don't do anything that'll warrant you jail time. :P

[Bakeneko]

Oh, "the beatings" is just a figurative term. You have to realize that I grew up in a house where I was raised to believe my dad was the boogeyman. The language is a lot harsher than the reality. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v104/Bakeneko-ouji/warai.jpg

You were raised to think your father was the boogeyman? Okay. I have not the slightest idea why, but a third of me finds that hilarious, another third of me finds that just plain weird, and the remaining third has not the slightest idea what to think of that. Don't take offense.

[Bakeneko]

Hey, my dad died and came back to life. He can call himself whatever he wants. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v104/Bakeneko-ouji/warai.jpg (If you're wondering where the bulk of my intellect and eccentricity comes from, look no further than oyaji.)

[Mikadzuki Tatsu]

So I can blame your father for your craziness, your weirdness (which may be the same thing as your craziness), your odd personality (am I being redundant here?), and just about everything else about you? *eyes twinkle* (You know I'm just messing around, right?)

[Bakeneko]

Zuboshi! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v104/Bakeneko-ouji/warai.jpg Now for all the bad traits, you can look to ofukuro. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v104/Bakeneko-ouji/oowarai.jpg

[Mikadzuki Tatsu]

Well, that's not being very nice to your mother. Why not show a little more gratitude to the one who gave birth to you, eh? ;)

[Greek Honeybee]

Well, one can be thankful and still know for a fact where your "bad" habits come from. I can speak from experience there. :D

[Bakeneko]

Honeybee no iu-toori. Ofukuro no koto daisuki da mon. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v104/Bakeneko-ouji/warai.jpg Warui bun ga ofukuro kara uketemo ore no kimochi ga kawaranee. It's like Honeybee says. I love my mom. Just cause I got the bad part from her, it doesn't change my feelings.

[Dark_Knight]

Kazaana or Bakuryuuha (sorry if its spelled wrong). They are plain awesomeness incarnate.

[Shin Asuka]

The attack in Movie 4 (Which isnt showed anywhere else in the series or movies) When he says KONGO - BAKURYUUHA its a nice mix of kongousouha and Bakuryuuha! :P
