I had to explain InuYasha to a friend...

Me: "So InuYasha is a story about a half man, half dog de…"

Friend: "So wait… it stars the offspring of a woman who mated with a dog?"

Me: "No… it was a dog god demon."

Friend: "Maybe the woman liked it doggie style"

 

Me: ":smileyindifferent:"

 

Me: "Well he falls in "love" with a priestess, is convinced to become full human, steals the jewel after he believes he is betrayed, and is pinned to a tree by her magic arrow where he becomes sleeping beauty. The Priestess dies from wounds we assume are from InuYasha. Long story short kikyo is revived and wants him to die... but then she just wants him, he has a new love interest played by a 15 year old girl named Kagome and so the series is about them discovering what happened, who the villain is and who InuYasha really loves."

Friend: "Well thats new… a love triangle between a zombie chick and a girl who is considered jailbait by all but a few weirdos during a quest to find who framed roger rabbit..."

 

Me: "InuYasha*"

 

Friend: "Is this really on TV?"

Me: "Eh… its a good show but when you put it like that it makes it sound weird."

Except for the jailbait part, your friend has a pretty good take on the show.

Inuyasha is 60+ age is determined by the date you were born. You think Dracula's age stops counting everytime he is defeated and then is reborn? No... he would be like 2 after 200 years.

That would make Inuyasha the jail bait, if he weren't still really just a boy. He was effectively dead for 50 years. Now he is alive again, and subject to aging once more. He's a living boy now.

Dracula is undead and will stay that way. That makes Kikyo more like Dracula than Inuyasha is.

You should have mentioned Miroku to your friend. I have a feeling that guy/gal would have something funny to say about him what with the hole in his hand.

True, since the series suggests that the Wind Tunnel grows in power after each day, powerful enough to consume Miroku whole.
