Nearly 10 years ago...

InuYasha first premiered. Hard to believe this show used to be huge, now look at it.

And this November/December, it'll have been 4 years since I first watched an episode of it.:smileyindifferent:

I remember that promo.  Sit Boy! Sit Sit was the best part of the entire promo :smileyvery-happy:

Wow, can't believe it was that long ago... I still remember when I first started watching it. I was still in high school ;_;

Awww! So nostalgic (although I didn't watch it then).

But it's still huge. Otherwise, they wouldn't have kept it on reserve and they wouldn't have gone after TFA...

We seriously need a resurgence of fandom though. :smileyindifferent:

It sure would be nice to have the RIFs back. I like them.

Whenever I think of all of the InuYasha haters who think they are so cool and better and smarter than everyone else and think they can talk down to people, it just makes my blood boil.

I am proud of my nerdiness (Toonami's back, MFer!)!

I have Final Act, in Japanese, from Japan.  I've seen the hulu versions so often that I almost don't need subs anymore.  :smileyvery-happy:

Sounds like someone wandering around the Casshern, Deadman, and Toonami folders constantly putting them down.

 

Maybe the fans who want it back should start tweeting DeMarco.

I've watched it on Hulu but that was over a year ago. I don't think I'd ever import anything from Japan unless I suddenly became a millionaire, but cool!:smileyvery-happy:

I just had to resolve myself to sacrifice one of my computer DVD drives to a changeover to Region 2.  Then I found out I could buy a replacement for $25 and I didn't feel so bad.  :smileyvery-happy:

Good work.  I should start a poll on it, if only I could figure out what I want to say.  There are just so many possibilities.  FA alone.  Both, but at different times.  The final arc of the original followed by FA.  So many choices....

It did, didn't it? It hasn't aged very well I guess...and yet it lasted as long as it did.

 

Really? Was that when [as] was airing it at midnights on the weekdays and when they still had Futurama? That's when I REALLY got into it, but I remember watching it when it was still airing new episodes.

How much did it cost you as the exchange rate was kinder back then?

 

Probably not near this. Why can't we have "100 Yen=$1"?:smileysad:

It wasn't that long ago; and the exchange rate hasn't varied that much.  The real killer was the shipping charges.  Luckily they were offering extra bonus points for using paypal, which mitigated things quite a bit.  Although, I was lucky enough to get the last copy of the music CD with the bounus textless OP and ED compliation DVD included.  It had every OP and ED from the beginning through FA, plus some extra video treats.
