Talk:Inu no Taishou

message: The initial section, before we hit the menu of options, is fairly good; it gives a complete plot summary of what we've seen of Inu no Taisho in the manga and anime up to the current point.
Everything after that, though, is absolutely horrendous. Not only is it replete with bad grammar, but it is full of unwarranted and incredibly long bits of speculation, particularly the badly spelled character analysis. I've deleted the entire set of menu sections that basically retold the movie, along with the 'character analysis.' 
For now, I've kept the description page done by the same person who did the above, but it also needs massive editing. I'll probably come back and do it later. Guardsman Bass 22:13, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  This page needs massive editing 

message: Kaede,
The information you posted is already present at the beginning of the article, in a neat, concise form that points out all the known info about the Inu no Taisho. There is no need to include the sections you added, which are full of redundant information. That's why I deleted it.
If you want to add to the article, add something that isn't already in the first section.
Thank you,
Guardsman Bass

thread_title:  Stop adding back the redundant info, Kaede 

message: We all know Inutaisho is the great dog-demon general of the western lands of japan, in saigoku or somewhere like that, and father to Sesshomaru and Inuyasho. But we all wanna know more! I'm tired of all this mystic and cryptic past secrets. I wanna see the center of it all. I wanna see or at least have some validation of correct information, on how Inutaisho lived his life, what he did, how he met his first love and sired Sesshomaru, and the full story on how he met Izayoi and how Inuyasha really came to be. I also wanna know more about how Inutaisho ruled the western lands, and a little more on his family history; did he have any relatives or family connections or something like that. All I want, is to know more about him, that's it. Is that too much to ask?

text: Everything in the article is all that has been revealed in the anime and manga at this point. It's also spelled Inu no Taishou.

thread_title:  InuTaisho's mysterious past 

message: While the article does that that Inu no Taisho is a title, does this mean that in reality it is a title, or is a title in the Inuyasha universe? Or is it his actual name, while being a title in real life? The article frequently switches between calling the character "the Inu no Taisho" and just "Inu no Taisho". Pick a stance people. Please.

thread_title:  Title or name? 

message: Okay; Tessaiga was created from one of Sesshomaru's dad's fangs right?  If Sesshomaru wants a powerful sword that badly, why doesn't he just comission Totosai to make him a sword from one of his own fangs instead of constantly harassing Inuyasha?
That way, Sesshomaru would have his own destructive sword, made from his own fangs, that he himself could make stronger simply by growing stronger.
Okay, you probably will make the argument that "but he wants what he feels belongs to him as his inheritance!" yeah well, I think the character Sesshomaru should show some more pride in himself, and rather than relying too much on daddy's heirlooms, make his own damn sword with his own damned fangs, that's what I say.
I mean, Sesshomaru is not exactly a pushover is he?  He is not as powerful as his dad..... at the very least, not yet.  He is a fully grown adult, but he is not fully mature, and if I interpreted the fiction correctly, when Sesshomaru grows old he will be just as powerful as his dad was.
If that's the case then, he should just simply comission Totosai to make him a sword from his own fangs and claws then!  I'm sorry but, listening to Sesshomaru whine about not getting what was his when can easily get his own sword gets really tiresome.
In a situation where, okay, it was IMPOSSIBLE to create a sword from Sesshomaru's fangs, then, yeah, I would understand.  But, ultimately, Sesshomaru harassing Inuyasha over that stupid sword when can easily have Totosai make him one from his fangs is basically admitting he is too weak for his own fangs to ever create a good sword.
Sesshomaru is impressive but, listen carefully Inuyasha fans; the most powerful character in that fiction is actually Kagome.
At the end of the series, she will surpass even the priestess Midoriko in raw sacred power.  Just a feeling.

replies: text: While this isn't exactly the place to discuss theories and such, there are actually a couple flaws in your argument. The first one being that Totosai doesn't like Sesshomaru and therefore refuses to make any sword for him period. The second flaw in your argument is that while Sesshomaru could have a sword made from one of his fangs, it still wouldn't be as powerful as one made from the fangs of his father, as he was much more powerful than Sesshomaru as a demon. 71.244.185.185 01:17, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

message: Too much information about Tenseiga.  The article is about Inu no Taishou, so saying he set up a test for his eldest son to unlock the abilities of the sword he gave him, makes sense.  Going into detail about that, is just unnecessary spoilers, and also not relevant to the article.  Perhaps the sword could get its own article, or there an article on the equipment found in the series used by the main characters, such as their swords, the monk's prayer papers he flings as a weapon, Jaken's staff, etc. Dream Focus (talk) 08:50, 2 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I do not agree on unnecessary spoilers (no such thing), but I do agree that excessive details about the swords are not necessary. The swords had their own articles and by consensus were merged to those who held them because they are completely unnotable by Wikipedia standards. This article is also highly likely to be merged soon as well, which will take care of that issue anyway. -- AnmaFinotera (talk · contribs) 15:13, 2 November 2008 (UTC)
