It's so sad if you think about Sesshomar*, his character ended up being a pedo, I will never understand Rumik*'s reason for allowing that and it saddens me that Inuyash*'s legacy is that way, for example for me Inuyash* was a big part of my childhood and knowing about the manga/anime is good but going beyond the end and then learning that about S/R was so disappointing and sad because if you think about it, for the plot there was no need for him to have a partner, especially someone like R*n 😞
I knooow!!!!! I’ve always had the same thoughts! It pisses me off because his relationship with Rin in IY certainly wasn’t & shouldn’t be a prerequisite for S/R in YSHM bc it’s sooo fucked. Rin was barely 8/9 years old in IY & they ruined such great character only to get mired in such abhorrent intentions. That being said, Yashahime was never written by Rumiko so I will never consider it canon material to IY (except Moroha, I find it pretty cute Inukag finally has an offspring but even the way they wrote it was pretty hectic bc why wasn’t she with her parents… it’s so annoying). Even though Rumiko did approve of the sequel & drawn the character designs herself. But yeah! It’s so disheartening, bc Sesshomaru ended up being a grooming ped*phile it’s so fucked that the writers for Yashahime saw his awakened human & paternal, familial benevolence towards Rin and used this dynamic to turn it into something… deplorable. It does leave a sour taste in the mouth, and that’s why I never supported Yashahime lol
