Lol, Adult Swim can't spell!

[Timmay]

.......... Miroku is a flamer.

[Perfect Cell]

Worst line evarr...

[vegetable]

face looks too Kagura-ish

[FlyByNite77]

Miroku"Nobody minds if I suck him up do they?"

Wow Miroku you're just one word off of the show turning yaoi :p

[Seiken Izumi]

I wonder what Inuyasha really said in the Japanese version to Jakotsu

[Seiken Izumi]

Anyone getting back memories of the Juppongatana?

[Spike Mcdougal]

You guys are sick in the mind

That said what's with the transexual villians!?! There was one in Kenshin and now this

[Seiken Izumi]

Btw, Saimyoshi = originally translated as "Naraku's venomous insects."

[Rabi~en~Rose]

Kagome choking Shippo hugging him was cute :anime: pretty good stuff for once including the battle with Sangos nice assist near the end. very weird villian though........

[KuwabaraTheMan]

Ah, Jakotsu. Its been so long since I read this story in the manga, but its still a great story.

Jakotsu calling Miroku sexy and then Miroku's "suck him up" line were great.

[Timmay]

What were they thinking when they scripted that line though..

"Hm... we have a transexual saying that Miroku is sexy.. let's have Miroku say something witty about his wind tunnel"

"How about, 'Nobody minds if I suck him up?'"

[Demonic Raven]

"I especially like those fuzzy dog ears.................I want them. *licks lips*"

I laughed at that alot more than I should have.

Aaaaanyway. The improved animation sure is helping these fights along alot more. In Sango and Kohaku's spar, I liked the chain effects for Kohaku's weapon.

Jakotsu has one awesome freakin sword as well. The fight at the end was quite awesome.

I was going for an 8, but that fight made up for the last point. 9/10.

[Youko Recca]

I'm gonna have to come in and agree about Miroku's responce, worst thing to say in a situation like that. But though not one thing topped last week's Koga head twist, it was an overall improvement.

[Warrior Kitana]

So Kohaku is still under Naraku's spell. I really do hope that he eventually breaks free from it. Sango is so tormented and hurt by this. It sucks having your only living relative possessed by the same evil guy who slaughtered your family and village.

Why does Jakotsu sound so much like a woman. I was kinda expecting him to sound like a girly/feminine man or something. He doesn't sound at all like a man. He looks a lot like Kagura too.

The lines between InuYasha, Miroku and Jakotsu were funny as well. I also loved Sango's assistance in battle at the end.

Overall, not a bad episode. 4 outta 5.

[The Landstander]

Lol Landstander Cant SpellI blame as.com and thus refuse to change it.

[PearlRose86]

I blame as.com and thus refuse to change it.
Whatever works. ;)


Eh, not sure what to make of the episode. It was okay, but then again, I never watch IY for the superior story or plots that make me think. I do like the dynamics of the Sango/Kohaku relationship, though.

I wasn't paying too much attention to this particular episode, but it wasn't bad. Fun sort of episode, although the dialoge was definitely off in some parts. Rather amusing in some parts, though. ^^

[TnAdct1]

Two things I have to say about tonight's episode:

1. I have to agree with Rabi-En-Rose:Kagome choke-hugging Shippo = kawaii.
(does the "Mechasampo" chant)

2. ...And I thought we already had enough hints of Inu-Yasha shounen-ai with the episode in which a possessed Inu-Yasha almost makes out with Shippo. :anime:

[Duke]

"I especially like those fuzzy dog ears.................I want them. *licks lips*"

I laughed at that alot more than I should have.I bet IY could hypnotise any and all women with his fuzzy dog ears if he wanted to.

[PickHut]

Ugh, I hate the Sango and Kohaku confrontations, since nothing ever happens or develops. It's always: they confront each, Sango gets all sentimental, Kohaku gets confused, they fight for a little bit, then they both separate, Sango gets depressed, and Kohaku gets confused again. Seeing Jakotsu flirt with Inuyasha was humorous, especially with the reactions at first. The fight was okay, though, seeing as Inuyasha was blocking the whole time and could only get a hit in after Sango stepped in.

I give Band of Seven, Resurrected! a C+.

[Duke]

Stupid question I just remembered: When Jakotsu paused in his assault (which resulted in IY punching him), why didn't dog boy just Wind Scar his ass?

[Seiken Izumi]

why didn't dog boy just Wind Scar his ass?I've asked myself this question so many times in this anime...

[Scirel]

Did he sound more masculine in the japanese version?

Because When he was in that Kimono if I didn`t know otherwise I would have thought he was a girl. I`m surprised no one in the show even brought that up. It`s like the complete opposite of the understandable reaction to kamatari in kenshin.

[ShadowS]

Stupid question I just remembered: When Jakotsu paused in his assault (which resulted in IY punching him), why didn't dog boy just Wind Scar his ass? Inuyasha still wanted to find out what Jakotsu's connection with Naraku was.

[Duke]

Inuyasha still wanted to find out what Jakotsu's connection with Naraku was.What other purpose does Naraku have for doing this crap than to piss off and/or kill our heroes? Even dog boy should know this by now. And besides, there's 6 others he can interrogate instead.

[Riza Hawkeye]

Did he sound more masculine in the japanese version? You've heard Envy's Japanese VA, right? That's like how he sounded. Jakotsu in the original was voiced by a woman and he did sound quite feminine in there as well. For reference, if you've seen the Japanese Gundam Wing, Jakotsu's VA also did Quarte.

[Nyarl]

This one caught my interest, if only for the three rank volley firing formation of the matchlock gunners. Probably a little anachronistic if the gun was introduced to Japan too near to the time portrayed in the episode, since, as I understand it, it took a while for the Japanese to learn proper tactics for such weapons, but it was an interesting detail.

[Patches]

Aaaaanyway. The improved animation sure is helping these fights along alot more. In Sango and Kohaku's spar, I liked the chain effects for Kohaku's weapon.The "improved animation" is a little touch-and-go, depending on who's directing the episode. This episode just happened to be done by the (imho) best of the directors. There are four directors we rotate between through the episodes. Two of them are good, one is okay, and the fourth one sucks.

So Kohaku is still under Naraku's spell. I really do hope that he eventually breaks free from it. Sango is so tormented and hurt by this. It sucks having your only living relative possessed by the same evil guy who slaughtered your family and village.He does eventually break free from it, but then it turns into "I'm free but I can't let anyone know, so now we can BOTH angst when we see each other!" Unfortunately, the anime ends before anyone actually finds out that he's broken free. Post-series, though, they do eventually figure it out, and Kohaku even joins the group for a short while. Then he runs off with Kikyou so that they can start the Walking Dead People Club.

[NozeNuggets]

Pretty good episode for a change of pace.

[Bunai]

You guys are sick in the mind

That said what's with the transexual villians!?! There was one in Kenshin and now thisits madatory in anime/manga...apperently


Why does Jakotsu sound so much like a woman. I was kinda expecting him to sound like a girly/feminine man or something.He doesn't sound at all like a man. He looks a lot like Kagura too.
japanese VA was a woman. he does look like one.
maybe femi man voice would have angered the fangirls. kidding

the character is masculine...a femi voice wouldn't have worked IMO


Ugh, I hate the Sango and Kohaku confrontations, since nothing ever happens or develops. It's always: they confront each, Sango gets all sentimental, Kohaku gets confused, they fight for a little bit, then they both separate, Sango gets depressed, and Kohaku gets confused again.
lol :anime: that sums it up...wow its so compact XD i love it

[Vincent Warlock]

Because When he was in that Kimono if I didn`t know otherwise I would have thought he was a girl. I`m surprised no one in the show even brought that up. It`s like the complete opposite of the understandable reaction to kamatari in kenshin.Seriously. I never even considered that Jakotsu was a guy. Then, (s)he approached the battalions and they, without a moment's hesitation, said "he" and "him", and so did Inuyasha and the gang.

I guess I have to take a class in Gender Identification.

[Demonic Raven]

I guess I have to take a class in Gender Identification. I'm also terrible at that sort of thing. Especially on the internet...where people have very ambiguous user names and such...

I thought Jakotsu was a chick up until someone mentioned it was a guy on here (I believe in last week's topic). *sigh* :sweat:

Am I the only one that finds it amusing how they list "The Truth of Mistake" right before it?

[Patches]

One thing that's been bugging me about this series is the changing of where the commercial break occurs. From here on out, it becomes standard to repeat the scene before the commercial break when the show resumes. But with the commercial break moved, the show just plows through the original break seamlessly, giving us the same scene twice in a row.

And I'll kinda go against the rest of the "purist" fandom and say that I'm fine with Jakotsu's English voice. Sure, it's hardly the greatest thing since Steve Blum, but it sounds reasonably close to the original. The actress just needs to add a couple more dashes of "hyperness", and she'll be all set. She's got a lot of time to work on the voice, given that Jakotsu is the longest-lived of the Shichinintai, episode-span-wise.

[CyberCartoon]

Is that villian a Homo? He just called Inuyasha CUTE?!?!?!?! OMG!!:confused: :eek:

[crayon]

sure is one interesting 'villian' guy there.. i think 'he's' a good addition to a saga that may be nearing its end.. but yeah.. it kinda 'picks up' the possibilities..

[Nyarl]

...

...
Heh, just watch for Adam's apples.

[Bunai]

is this like...the biggest Naraku(?) distraction EVER?

[Timmay]

is this like...the biggest Naraku(?) distraction EVER? Apparently they have found another way to stall the series.. to the point that it ends without resolve.

[Duke]

Well, Naraku's main objective isn't something silly like taking over the world or killing all humans. It's to piss off and/or otherwise annoy our good-looking band of heroes. Nothing more, nothing less.

[herbkir]

Is that villian a Homo? He just called Inuyasha CUTE?!?!?!?! OMG!!:confused: :eek:Yes, Jakotsu is a gay male character. His infatuation with Inuyasha provides quite a bit of humor throughout this story arc. I think that as the arc goes on, Jakotsu's VA will be putting a harder edge onto his voice. I could already hear signs of that in this episode, especially during the fight.

I think this is the first time firearms appear in this series. The whole series is set around the time firearms were first introduced into Japan. Just imagine the gunners' surprise, though, when their new hi-tech miracle weapons failed to kill Jakotsu, or even disturb him very much. Anyway, I'm glad we're finally getting into this arc, which was a favorite of mine from the manga. (^_*)

Mark spoilers, please! You know, this actually really annoys me, because now I know part of the order of how they're going to die. That just sucks. I mean, now I know that Inu-yasha won't kill him in the next episode because of what you just said. I would kind of like to be in the dark considering when they're going to die.

[ShadowS]

is this like...the biggest Naraku(?) distraction EVER? There is a good reason why there are there. You don't actually find out what until the end of this arc when everything comes together.

Apparently they have found another way to stall the series.. to the point that it ends without resolve. The series is still going on in the manga (with many big things that have already happened that have not being shown in the anime), the story hasn't ended yet.

[Crimefighter]

This spectre looks, acts, talks like a woman to me...if they didn't say HE I wouldn't had known the difference.

[Patches]

I mean, now I know that Inu-yasha won't kill him in the next episode because of what you just said.Sorry. I figured all the prior comments of "later in the series" already sort of implied that he's not going to get killed off right away. The Shichinintai arc is 20 episodes long, and given that there's only seven of them, it kinda stands to reason that at least a few of them last more than one episode.

[Vincent Warlock]

This spectre looks, acts, talks like a woman to me...if they didn't say HE I wouldn't had known the difference.My thoughts exactly.

Everyone's so oblivious to the fact that he's a homosexual, we may as well just assume they're all saying "she" and "her." It really doesn't make any difference! (Except for the infamous Miroku "Suck him up" line...)

[LightShadow1890]

The dialouge before the fight was perfect! That totally cracked me up. I could tell he was a guy, the voice and if Jakotsu was a GIRL, then Jako should have breasts.

Hm....I wonder what'll happenm if we see him again....

[Kouji Tamino]

...At the risk of sounding weird, I have only one thing to say about this episode...

...No man has the right to look that attractive. I'm serious.

Joking aside, this was an amusing episode. Jakotsu is an... interesting character, to say the least. Everyone's reactions to his comments about Inuyasha and Miroku were great. XD

[crayon]

makes me wonder what happened to the 'other 6' that jakotsu wandered ancient japan with. would have made some interesting adventures.

[Viceroy]

makes me wonder what happened to the 'other 6' that jakotsu wandered ancient japan with. would have made some interesting adventures.The giant that Our Heroes fought last week ("Assault on the Wolf Demon Tribe") was one of the 'other 6'.

[Demonic Raven]

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that we DO see all seven of them by the end of this arc. It would be kind of stupid to haul around the story of the Band of Seven without actually being able to see all seven of them at least once. We've already seen that one big guy, Jakotsu, and next week is the poison dude/chick (can't be too careful) that we saw some glimpses of this week.

[Master Moron]

Sorry. I figured all the prior comments of "later in the series" already sort of implied that he's not going to get killed off right away. The Shichinintai arc is 20 episodes long, and given that there's only seven of them, it kinda stands to reason that at least a few of them last more than one episode.

Yeah, but


by saying that Jakotsu lasts the longest now I know that the other 5 will die before him. Enough spoilers like that and I'll know the exact order that they die in before they die. Besides, it's not like I necessarily knew they were going to die. Several villains in this show have turned into good guys, like Sheshoumaru and Koga.

[Patches]

by saying that Jakotsu lasts the longest now I know that the other 5 will die before him.Okay, I'm guessing you totally misinterpreted what I said.

I didn't say he lasted the longest. I said that he was the longest-lived, episode-span-wise. Meaning he's the one who appears in the most number of episodes of any of them. For all you know, this could mean that he dies next week, giving him an appearance of three episodes, and all the other ones show up later and last two episodes or less each. You're reading too much into what I said.

[Master Moron]

Okay, I'm guessing you totally misinterpreted what I said.



Oh, okay, I didn't read that whole spoiler you just wrote. So, it's good to know that I misinterpreted what you said and I wasn't actually spoiled. Now I guess I'm free to guess which order they die in, if they die that is.

[Gyro]

...At the risk of sounding weird, I have only one thing to say about this episode...

...No man has the right to look that attractive. I'm serious. Hey, I'd tap it.

:>:
Arrowed!

[Bunai]

an arc does have a tendency to make things more constant. so this could be interersting. so you can tell who the band of seven are by that chestplate they wear?

Naraku seems like a jerk who wants everyone to feel as miserable as he does. unless hes just evilly happy.


okay...Miroku's line could have been scripted better...but how else would we have such immature fun about it?:p

[Duke]

Naraku seems like a jerk who wants everyone to feel as miserable as he does. unless hes just evilly happy.He's not miserable, he's bored. I mean, InuYasha's been stuck to a tree for 50 years, he has no idea Miroku and Sango exist, and the girl he wanted to make a sex slave is dead. Meanwhile, Fluffy's off fighting cat demons. He likes torturing people, but it's no fun if IY's not around, so he decided to wait around to see if somebody would release him.

[Timmay]

Didn't Naraku give Miroku his wind tunnel.. as a curse of course..

Do they ever explain why Miroku's father got cursed by naraku
:confused:

[Duke]

Naraku gave Miroku's grandfather the curse first. Basically, Miroku's grandpa was at the wrong place at the wrong time.

However, I doubt Naraku constantly keeps an eye on Miroku's family...
