This nostalgic merch lineup will transport you right back in time to your youth without needing to fall down any wells.
Inuyasha
Manga legend Rumiko Takahashi is even designing a brand-new character just for Japan’s top cosplayer to pose as.
Creator of Inyasha, Ranma 1/2, and other hits shows where she draws, her amazing home library, and incredibly merch collection.
Anime/manga legend lays out various scenarios for five-way fight, and physical strength plays surprisingly small role.
The legendary creator of the will-they-or-won’t-they couples of Inuyasha and Ranma 1/2 discusses her logic.
Takahashi apparently has more boundless energy than any of her hot-blooded shonen manga stars.
You don’t become one of the most prolific manga creators of all time without putting in some very long hours.
One of the all-time anime/manga greats sets up website form for questions, will answer them through Twitter.
You might need to “sit” for this one–indulge in the nostalgia and buy up the exclusive character goods at this limited-time art appreciation event.
Multi-generational follow-up to the Rumiko Takahashi hit also has a confirmed premiere date.
Today we’re counting down some pivotal episodes before the release of Yashahime this October.
Yashahime, starring daughters of Inuyasha’s stars, is coming soon, but the entire Inuyasha manga is free to read right now.
Inuyasha vs. Ranma vs. Lum vs…..a whole lot more of the most popular anime and manga stars from the past 40 years.
