Naraku’s cloud form Inuyasha: Final Act - 14is seen from a distance by Inuyasha’s group, but they are delayed by Byakuya, forcing Miroku to take in more shouki from the youkai plants of Byakuya through his Kazaana ability, though Miroku no longer feels the pain.

Thoughts/Review:

Inuyasha: Final Act - 14Now that the anime is to the point where it can slow down a bit, the pacing of things is a little better especially as previous events are coming into play with the current story. Of course having flashbacks is a cost cutting measure (and it is still amusing to see old scenes from the first series since the look is so much different in the pre-digital days) but as a story device, they still work. Also, it looks as though the anime story will continue with Miroku’s shouki damage, which is good.

Because one of the biggest flaws with Inuyasha is having all the supporting characters stand around and call out, “Inuyasha” during fights, it is always nice when one of the supporting cast actually can do something productive. Sango’s having Hiraikotsu upgraded so that it can damage Naraku is one such moment.

Inuyasha: Final Act - 14More Sesshoumaru love this episode as his growth story continues. As I’ve said, I always like it when Sesshoumaru appears. I like how Toutousai is played in the moment, first with his attempting to flee his home before Sesshoumaru arrives, then his using his own power to bring home a point to Sesshoumaru, followed by he and his cow-youkai hiding in (comedic) terror behind the rock. *lol*

Not really a lot more for me to say here so I’ll move on to the next episode.
