Good morning, Readers!
Today, I'm over at Black Gate, musing about InuYasha.
Look, I'm obsessed, okay?

Look, I'm obsessed, okay?
I have been, for the past week and a bit, binge-watching InuYasha (English subs, as I much prefer the voice acting in Japanese). It is a series I began long ago, then just stopped watching. When I saw that Netflix had it, I decided to give it another go. After all, I had vaguely fond memories of it. Let me tell you, I am finding it absolutely delightful, even though it is choc-full of all the tropes that I generally despise. I’m struggling to figure out why I like the series so damned much. Make no mistake. I do. I have finished all the episodes in the original seasons, watched all of the movies, and am not far off finishing The Last Chapter, where the story is finally, after a long break to permit the manga to catch up, coming to a close.
There is so much about this show that I shouldn’t like. Yet somehow… well, I absolutely love it. To the point where I’m considering buying the whole lot on Blu Ray to binge whenever I please without fear of my streaming services dumping the series after a while (as they so often have with various shows).
First, let’s start with the trope I despise the most in any medium. The love triangle.
