What Weapon would you Wield?

[Pie King]

It took me a bit to think of 10 Weapons but here they are.....

[Hankoubou]

Tessaiga for me.

[Mikadzuki Tatsu]

If I were a hanyou and were capable of wielding Tetsusaiga, that's what I would choose. If I were a youkai and were capable of wielding a demon blade, I would chose Toukijin. If I were human, I would choose to wield Hiraikotsu. If I were a miko I would wield reiryoku.

[Kagura Hakubi]

My own fan. What did you expect?

But it's just a piece of paper and wood. The power is mine.

Oh... that "hook and chain" thing? If you mean Kohaku's weapon, it's called a Kusari-gama, which litterally means "chain-sickle".

[UltimateX]

Heh, you thought of Tessaiga last? Come on man, that's like, THE weapon! ^_^

But anyway, if I could actually use it in it's fully powered form (and, you know, carry it), I'd take the Tessaiga. It has a variety of functions, and I'd love to say "Kaze no kizu". That just SOUNDS cool. ;)

[Gerudo Grunt]

Toukijin would be my first choice. Sacred arrows and Tetsusaiga would be my second and third choices.

[Knives122]

Toukijin/tetsusaiga for me, second choice would be my own metal arm

[Pie King]

Tenseiga for me. Why kill when you can heal?

[clamp_fan12]

Tenseiga first, then the wind fan or Kanna's mirror...though...why do these weapons just sound so not powerful to me? *sigh*

[Kagura Hakubi]

because the wind fan is the one with direct, flashy-explosion style offensive capabilities.

[clamp_fan12]

Wow *claps* very nice wording...

[Pie King]

But the Tenseiga can revive an invinsible army of ninja's and samari....also who ever holds it can't be killed. "episode True holder of the great sword"

[Hankoubou]

They can be killed with melee combat, just nothing like the Kaze no Kizu, if I were to chop off Sesshoumaru's head with a good old katana, nothing much the Tenseiga can do about it, of course I could never get that close.

[Gerudo Grunt]

But the Tenseiga can revive an invinsible army of ninja's and samari....also who ever holds it can't be killed. "episode True holder of the great sword"

Has it ever been shown that Tenseiga can revive a person more than once?

[Kagura Hakubi]

It's been used... what... three times in the anime and only twice in the manga? There's not enough evidence to work it out.

[Hankoubou]

Three times in the anime?

I only remember Rin and Jaken, who else was revived by it?

[Kagura Hakubi]

It was used to "kill" the Cat Lord guy by ressurecting the people who's souls he'd stolen.

[Pie King]

Cat Lord Guy? But It was use to revive the demon the Tokajin was made from.

[Kagura Hakubi]

oh yeah, we both forgot that one. That makes it 3 in the Manga and 4 in the Anime, then.

[Silvershadow]

I would have to go with the Tessaiga...

[Yoshio]

i'd have to say tessaiga or toukijin, tessaiga has so many different abilities that it makes you wonder who wouldnt want it, toukijin also has different abilities, like that being able to shoot numerous shots of energy or some other htings i cant remember

[twilight]

I'd want Sesshoumaru's healing sword.

[Pie King]

I'd want Sesshoumaru's healing sword.

it's called Tenseiga

[mikenox]

Tenseiga... or Tessaiga... depending on my mood.

[twilight]

it's called Tenseiga

heh, I know... but with both swords having similar names and both having a variety of spellings that are used, sometimes I like to just describe which one I'm talking about. :P

[Aiko-Chan]

heh, I know... but with both swords having similar names and both having a variety of spellings that are used, sometimes I like to just describe which one I'm talking about. :P

Yeah...the spellings are weird! When the name of Inuyasha's sword is written in Japanese it's Tessaiga. When it's in english, it's Tetsusaiga. >.>

Anyway...I'll go with the arrows. ^_^ Why? I like Archery. Plain and simple. Hehehe...

[demecowen]

I go with the arrows facing demon long range combat and with holy power can have good advantage. My second choice is chain and hook, range combat and melee when it time to get up close and personal.

[laken cascade]

Lets see a good old staff will do it for me and then arrows second

[Norlan]

Is Wind Tunnel not considered a weapon? I know it's not listed there, just thought that I should bring it up

[Mikadzuki Tatsu]

Is Wind Tunnel not considered a weapon? I know it's not listed there, just thought that I should bring it up
Yes, Kazaana is considered a weapon (although I don't see why anyone would want that curse).

[Kagura Hakubi]

It's considered a Power because it doen't involve a solid focus to use (Like, for example, our wind powers)

[Shadow Raven]

Tessaiga .

[NakedEYE666]

I think I recall the Tenseiga having the power to give life to the dead. Even if only once, that means I have the power of a God. Plus it protected against Inuyasha's most powerful attack. I would, certainly, choose to weild the Tenseiga.

[JOJO]

I'd choose the Tenseiga for it's healing. I can always attack with something else.

[Brill]

But Tensiaiga has some "interesting" offensive capabilities which will be revealed soon. :)

[Kagura Hakubi]

... not really. It wasn't used to attack. It's methods just happened to have that effect...

[Knives122]

Ha, no offense for you with that sword, I've want the tokijin now, if someone with the tessaiga trys killing me, ill just throw a blast back at him and see what happens(hopefully Ill win)

[Kagura Hakubi]

I still say that the best thing to take is kaze-no-chikara. You're not limited to just violent junk with your gift then. It's the only one of those options that I can't think of causing me any moral dillemas.

[Ha-ouDynast]

Definately the Toukijin!!! Not only do I LOVE how it can throw dark energy at people, I also like its other attack...from the third movie...if I could have another of those weapons too, It'd be the Tensaiga. With its protection and the Toukijin's power, I'd be invincable! *wicked smile*

[darkphoenix16]

ID want Toukijin as well. The Tessaiga is far too big for me :). The tensaiga is kida neat but Id rather not be bothered everyday to revive lost pets, friends, relatives, etc..

[darkphoenix16]

Kagura, are you actually the humanoid representation of the wind or just a wind demon? I am a little confused as in the Anime you can be quoted as saying "I am the wind".

[Kagura Hakubi]

As far as I can tell, Naraku created a body, and then captured a small part of the wind's soul to power it - in the same was Urasue had to take part of Kagome's soul to power the Kikyou body.

[Knives122]

how can you take part of an elements soul, what did he put it in a jar and said this is a small peice of the winds being.

[darkphoenix16]

As far as I can tell, Naraku created a body, and then captured a small part of the wind's soul to power it - in the same was Urasue had to take part of Kagome's soul to power the Kikyou body.


That is very cool.

[Kagura Hakubi]

Simple... you can take the wind's soul in the same way as anything else's soul... trick it into manifesting and then clap the irons on. In this case, he made a body for it that suited it's whims of the moment, the wind moved in, and bam! trapped.

And no. It's not cool. I speak from experience.

[darkphoenix16]

So what do you think would happen if Naraku killed Kagura by breaking her heart (physically)? Would the wind cease to exist?

[Kagura Hakubi]

No, she would achive her freedom - after a fashion. The body is killed, allowing the soul to pass on - but the wind would not, because it's only a portion of the soul that's trapped in Kagura. The wind would become as strong as before it was captured as the parts of the soul are re-united.

[darkphoenix16]

So perhaps Kagura's only chance at freedom is the death of her body...although she fears that greatly. This would make things very interesting. I might be misunderstanding you though.

[Kagura Hakubi]

If she dies, she'll become one with the wind, and free... however, she wishes personal freedom of body rather than spirit. So it would be like offering someone a cake, then buying them a cookie.

[Spiritbomb]

I would like to have Kanna's Mirror.

[darkphoenix16]

Ok, I think I know what you mean now. I really like the character Kagura, I wish she was more powerfull though, or at least flaunted it a little more. I would like the "badguys" to be after naraku too rather than the typical badguy/goodguy setup, unless you consider Sesshomaru a bad guy, or Kikyou. You all know I don't read the manga so maybe this has happened already.

[Kagura Hakubi]

Sesshoumaru is DEFINITLY a badguy. I don't know how you can see him as anything else... he's normally openly hostile to the main character. Kouga's a "bad guy" as well.

[darkphoenix16]

I don't see Sesshoumaru as a badguy because he hasn't killed InuYasha yet although he has had several chances. Even if it is true he didn't do so our of honor or whatever, at least he has morals etc...which makes him good in my books. He also defends others on countless occasions. THis is coming from my Anime-only perspective remember. I dont have an opinion on kouga either way...I havent thought about that enough to have an answer. Hmm...on the other hand, if Kagura was actively combating Naraku I would probably see her as a good guy as well...and then I would be complaining on why no bad guys fight him. So I guess I make no sense :)

Well maybe not...it depends on whether she attaced InuYasha and gang as well. Or sliced or defenseless butterflies with her "wind blades" :)

[miakarayne]

The Wind Fan...

It would keep me cool here in humid Florida! ^o^

Haha... No, really...

[Emma Iveli]

The Arrow, I'm very good at archery I got a near bull's eye at camp.

[Kagura Hakubi]

Custard, Emma, Bullseye is darts...

Kagura attacks the ikkou only twice. Naraku stops using her as an offensive tool after that, 'cause we're outclassed.

[Hankoubou]

The center on a targetboard is a bullseye for a shooting range as well, at least that is always what it has been refered to anytime I have heard it.

[Kagura Hakubi]

The centre of an archery target's proper, technical name is the Gold. But most archers - around here, at least - call it the Custard, or just The Middle.

Anyone who thinks otherwise has been playing too many FPS.

If you don't think I know what I'm talking about, I'll bring up the fact that I've done archery solidly for the last two years.

[Hankoubou]

I'm not saying your wrong, but everywhere I have heard one used in topic, it has been a bullseye. I don't do archery as much as I use to, but I still enjoy my rifle.

[quaze6]

the tensiega is the coolest weapon ever, its made out of a giant dog deamon fang!how much more bad a$$ can u get?

[Kagura Hakubi]

You want a weapon more "bada$$" than Tenseiga? Tetsusaiga. It's made from a giant dog-demon fang, but it actually LOOKS like a giant dog-demon fang, and can kill stuff.

[Ronin]

I would choose the Tenseiga
1. When I hold it I can't be killed
2. I could bring an army under my control by bringing them back to life
3. None of my friends would ever stay dead

[Kagura Hakubi]

Loss is part of us. I've seen what happens when death is cheapened - people can't deal when it eventually IS permanant. (see? games are useful for something).

I would NEVER give ANYONE, not even the Dalai Lama or Christ the Tenseiga.

[Mikadzuki Tatsu]

Agreed. Sometimes staying alive forever can be worse than dying. (Take Yuta from Mermaid Saga, for example--alive 500 years and sick of it.) I think Sesshoumaru was given Tenseiga so he could learn to care enough for someone to want to save that person; but he also knows when it is time to save someone and when it is better to let them stay dead. Having a weapon like Tenseiga requires a lot of responsibility; it's not a weapon for just anyone.

[NakedEYE666]

Well I would only use the Tenseiga's abilities to save myself from fatally stupid mistakes... like that time when Jesus killed that one kid.

[Lord Jak]

I would choose the Chain Hook over them all. Afterall, what other weapon can be used both as near combat and far combat?

[Mikadzuki Tatsu]

I would choose the Chain Hook over them all. Afterall, what other weapon can be used both as near combat and far combat?
Hiraikotsu. Tetsusaiga. Toukijin. Kazaana. Kitsune-bi.

[quaze6]

inuyasha's is the tenseiga, right?

[eXdriver]

The chain hook because to me it seems like the weapon that needs the most skill in order to use it correctly and effectively, and I like the fact that it is one of the most realistic weapons seen in Inuyasha.

[Mikadzuki Tatsu]

inuyasha's is the tenseiga, right?
No. Inuyasha's weapon is the Tetsusaiga. The Tenseiga belongs to Sesshoumaru.

[SockMan!]

I would choose the staff for it's versatility. After all, it's not every day that I want to kill people and things. I could use it as a walking stick or for non-lethal combat (if I had the training).

[Kagura Hakubi]

It's not hard to use a staff for combat without training - it's more difficult to use a Shaku-staff, though, becaues of the extra weight. The problem with carrying a shaku-staff is that everyone will immediatly assume you're a buddhist priest.

[KamuiX1999]

Why isn't the sword from the 3rd movie on the list, I think it's called the Souuga. I would definitely choose to use that sword.

[Sheri_Chan]

Tenseiga for me. Why kill when you can heal?

Exactly ^__^

But my second choice would probably be Sango's hiraikotsu.

[Knives122]

If you had a sword like toukijin would you really need a sword to heal you, if they never touch you

[Kagura Hakubi]

Healing blades have a much larger "usability" than normal ones. You don't have to be able to kill to defeat anyone who attacks you in this world. In fact, if you draw a weapon in a fight IRL, expect someone to be killed. Unless it's Tenseiga, in which case you can take people OOA without killing them.

[Mikadzuki Tatsu]

Why isn't the sword from the 3rd movie on the list, I think it's called the Souuga. I would definitely choose to use that sword.
I think perhaps because that third sword only exists in the movie?

[venom112]

I would wield The VENOM. It's a weapon that makes both Inu-Yasha's and Sesshomaru's swords combined look like toothpicks (not the regular kind either, the safety toothpicks that aren't very pointy). If I actually have to wield a weapon that exists in Inu-Yasha, then I'd just go with the other swords. Surely if the weapon that Inu-Yasha carries is from his father's tooth, well, let's just say it's grave robbin' time.

[Dark_Knight]

None of the above. Sou'unga is the only sword for me. Gokuruuha!

[Dark_Style]

I like the hiraikotsu. But, I'd like to use the chain sickle. It looks like fun.

[Shin Asuka]

Although its not up there I'd rather go with the Jap-Halberd Banryuu Bankotsu's Weapon

[Jeikobu]

Tessaiga is one of the coolest weapons in anime. "BAKURYUUUUUUUUU-HA!!!" ^__^

[Shadow Raven.]

Tessaiga .

[Kali-chan]

Tenseiga, I'd stick to reviving the poor people

[Anime Junkie]

Tessaiga love the adament barrage
:P

[Len]

Kanna's mirror, hands down.. I just like it.. and this thread was started in 2004.. why is it still being responded to? xD

[hanyougothgirl]

i would choose tenseiga because i would revive my mother,i truley do miss her....but anyway you can only revive someone once because rin had died again and sesshomuru couldnt revive her, his mother rivived her, TENSEIGA ROCKS OUT LOUD!but tokijin rocks out loud to and inuyahsa's...~sigh~ impossible to choose from....
