Even though I didn't follow the manga obsessively until the last 20 chapters, I had thought that InuYasha's and Sesshomaru's family would be more incorporated into the ending. Yes, we got to see SessMom, and yeah, we heard a shit load about Inu-Papa and Izayoi, but did the vague descriptions leave you guys a little bit sad now that it is all over? 'Cause, seriously, I thought we would have learned a bit more about Inu-papa by now just because of his major role in both InuYasha's and Sesshomaru's lives and decisions.
Do you guys feel the same way or am I just crazy?

Dude, I'm totally with you. It seems like that Sesshomaru cared but didn't care for his father. Very confusing. O.o
And Inuyasha...He said he didn't care because he never met Inupapa, but in the third movie he wanted to become strong like bull him.

Looks like this is my first post here. Hey guys.
I wanted to say that, while I was also a little disappointed not to find out more about Inu-Yasha's family, I recognize that it wasn't going to happen. For the purposes of the story she was telling, Takahashi didn't need to include details about Sessmom or Izayoi, for example. While it would have been interesting, that's a different story.
On the subject of Inu-Papa, though, I don't think she COULD. It seemed to me that Inu-Papa was never intended to be a character, but rather a concept and a presence that motivates the brothers to move forward. For Inu-Yasha especially, Inu-Papa IS a concept rather than a person. He never knew his father, yet his father is this huge idea representing strength and accomplishment. Inu-Yasha, like us, hears all the information about his father second-hand, building him up into a larger-than-life figure instead of being a real person. I think if Inu-Papa's character were ever actively fleshed out, it would ruin the feel of "faceless inevitable force of nature" that he becomes in the series. Inu-Papa isn't important as a character, but his shadow influences everything his boys do.
Just my two cents. Hope my meaning came across okay.
