So, apparently IIFJ has had a news clip about the spring special up for a while now, but neglected to mention it in the updates section, so I never noticed it until now. ^_^* After watching it.... the hell? Shako... is an old guy? Well, middle-aged, but still... He's so normal-looking! And what the shniz is he doing with Hiraikotsu and Kirara? Is he Sango's grandpa or something? The dialogue they show him recording consists of nothing but "Give back the Shikon no Tama!" and a bunch of yelling, but there's also a shot of pre-sealing Inuyasha. I'm gonna guess this is the story of how Kikyou came to get the Shikon no Tama, but... eh. ^_^* The news clip still just says the special will air in April, but doesn't give a date or episode number. Most reports I've seen say it's episodes 147-148, which makes sense, but until I see something official say that, I will withhold the information from the main page, per the usual. |

The break will be two or three weeks long, and will occur after episode 146, I think. Although, I remember hearing that movie 1 is going to re-run on TV on the 22nd of March. I'll know more once Sunrise updates their schedule on Wednesday.

Gosh I love Japanese. Where you can write something out with one set of kanji, and then just decide to read it a completely different way!
Such is the case with the spring special, apparently. Even though the kanji for the title reads "Meguriau mae no Unmei Renka", the furigana is apparently "Meguriau mae no Sadame no Koiuta". The funny thing is, they mean practically the same thing, so I left my translation of the title as is.

You know... I just realized something else about this special... I have yet to see it given an episode number on any official site. Both YTV and WebSunday just call it "Special", with no number. Kouji's blog had it incorrectly numbered as episodes 145-146. If I recall correctly, the Fall Special was also advertised as "Special", but also carried the number 133-134.
So, that poses the question... is the Spring Special an actual double-episode, or is it going to be treated as a made-for-TV movie? Because if the latter is the case, that would mean the episode following it, "Haran o Yobu Ippon no Ya", would be episode 147, not 149.
Well, we'll know at the end of the week when Sunrise updates their schedule, as to whether or not the special is given a number or not.

It would make sense if this didn't have an episode number. It seems like where they are in the plot right now is doing too much to suddenly stop and have a two-part filler episode.
Then again, in my mind, I nicknamed the "Shinchin-tai Who Waited in Hell" episode 143 and a half because of what they're looking for (the boundary between this world and the next) seems like something that would happen between episode 143 and 144.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. Seeing as the Abi stuff just started it's rather akward to just start filler. Not to mention it wouldn't be nearly as out of place it occured after 145. |

Okay, I just heard this random rumor that "Change the World" is going to play as a special ending to the Spring special. ... That's... random. Granted, Tackey WAS a member of V6, wasn't he?

^_^* Thankfully, Saiyaman isn't the only raw provider. He's just the one with the fastest turnaround. I had been hoping he'd be finished with his move and setup and whatnot by now, but I guess not, so I'll have to make do with someone else. I'm not positive, but I think L337 Raws carries Inuyasha. But, they probably won't have it up until tomorrow or so. |

Ack, was L337 ever able to get the Inu raws? I was kinda bummed that Saiya was still down, but hopefully everything is going alright for him and he can get the site funcitoning smoothly again.
Anyone else able to download the special? ^_^

Nope, I haven't seen it at l33t-raws yet. They've been pretty consistant putting out the last couple episodes raw, I've noticed, so going there was just a suggestion that if anyone would have it up on BT, it would probably be them.
Granted, the only copy of the Special I've yet been able to find is 600MB, so that might be a tad out of their range. I'm currently getting it off of eMule and it should be done sometime tomorrow. You could also try Winny, a Japanese P2P program, but use of that assumes you can run programs with Japanese menu bars and can input Japanese text. I wasn't getting very good download rates on that thing, anyway.
