OK Now I want these two to be together I love thier pairing..... But.... When Naraku is defeated and the Shikon Jewel is destroyed.....what then? Seriously.... Inuyasha (may still be a hanyou), could he honestly live in Kagome's time with her? Where would he live? With her at the shrine and would they honestly stay together? They are both 15/16 years old.....10 years pass, what then? And Inuyasha has never been to school, he may not know how to read and write yet he is supposed to be successful in today's society as a hanyou? Kagome will not stay in the Senkogu Jidai to 'live happily ever after' with Inuyasha and be neighbors with Sango and Miroku.......Kagome is a girl who has her own agenda when it comes to her life....she still works her butt off doing school work and still has her family back in present day, she has plans for her future....... Like I said I do love the pairing and that would be a nice fluffy ending to the series.......but if they stay together I feel the story would lose whatever realism it holds and its credibility for me...... I feel Takahashi-sama will not have them end up together.....for InuYasha is not a love story, it is an adventure/tragedy.... But these are my thoughts..........we will see what Takahashi-sama will decide........ And yes...I do realize the heat I will get for saying this....-_- *covers her ears and sings a song* "lalala, I cant hear you, lalala " Why couldnt Inuyasha live in todays world? If they used the Shikon no Tama to turn him human, there is no reason why that couldnt work. Takahashi has already shown that he can live just fine todays world. And, who says he needs to go to school? He could work at the shrine with Kagome's Grandpa...or something, and even so why couldnt he go to school? By the way, I think Inu Yasha CAN read. According to movie 3, he is over 200 years old. Yes, I know, the films arent written by Takahashi, but she does oversee them, and I know that she had a lot of involvement on movie 3. She has only stated that Inu Yasha has the MENTAL age of a 16 or 17 year old boy. No, I have to say I believe that Inu Yasha and Kagome may very well have a happy ending (I hope so anyway ) P.S: Inu Yasha WOULD be able to live at the shrine with Kagome and her family. It's common in Japan to have three generations living in the one house, and since they all live at the family shrine, I doubt Kagome would be leaving the house anytime soon.

It's common in Japan to have three generations living in the wone house, and since they all live at the family shrine, I doubt Kagome would be leaving the house anytime soon. Yes......but.... Just because he is 200 yers old does not guarantee that he would read....this is the feudal era there are adults who cannot read and who would have taught him how? Also yes he could live at the shrine and work there.....but I have a feeling that Kagome has bigger plans than working there.....don't forget that in the very beginning of the series she was tired of hearing about 'this has a history' and 'the legend of that'.....I don't feel she is as interested in the family shrine as for example Souta is. Souta is always hanging around Ji-chan wanting to learn more.....and Kagome seems to ignore her Ji-chan's words of 'wisdom'. Anyway......I don't feel that Kagome would stay in the Higurashi Shrine..... And again even if IY was to be human and move with Kagome...does not mean they would stay together.....they are both so young! And couples that start out at such young ages in this day and age rarely work out because people change..... And I never said that I didn't want them to be together....I do I have NO CLUE where Takahashi-sama is going with this....none.....there could be more plot twists that could make everything I said seem obsolete..... you never know.......c'mon Takahashi-sama! Have another IY/Kag plot line in your story! It has been SO long since she had a really good one.....-_-

I don't think Takahashi's point is to make the ending totally realistic, anyway. Inuyasha does fine in the modern world, and her friends like him. She could absolutely end it with Inuyasha and Kagome ending up together in the modern world and completely ignore the implications of what will happen years down the line. I'm not sure that whether or not a "realisting long-term life" will even be a consideration in how she treats the ending. (Not sure if I'm making sense there...) It's been implied that he can read, although that one time it was Kagome's schoolbooks with "weird spells"... y'know... like algebra. Then again, according to the insanity that was "Jigoku de Matteta Shichinintai," the boys can do math, too. They're just not all that fast at it... And then again, 7 x 7 = 52 in Inuyasha's book. So, um... bad example!!! Heehee. As for who would have taught him? If anyone, his mom, I suppose. I just feel like if they don't end up together or at least confess their love out loud, then that will be a big disappointment. Y'know... like the whole relationship and the moments of them going through all that angst, would be kinda pointless. But that's just me. And it's almost midnight and I'm exhausted, so I make no sense.

Dude, your talking about anime characters here Ofcourse Inu Yasha and Kagome could live happily ever after. Remember Cardcaptor Sakura? Syaoran and Sakura became a couple at the ages of 12. Your not supposed to question whats ahead for them in the future to that extent, otherwise, yeah not many relationships people start at 12 last forever!!! And then what about Miaka and Tamahome in Fushigi Yuugi? They also got together in their teens, then went on to have many break ups and get back togethers, and in the end, Tamahome had to go through an incredible, insane amount, of work to get back with her. And, yes, they ended up happily together for the rest of their lives. Realistic? Heck no, but it doesnt have to be! Once again, these are ANIME characters were talking about here. NOT real people! They can have whatever ending Takahashi wants, and if thats a happy, be together forever story, then so be it!! It's a FANTASY story, not a memoir! I doubt Takahashi plans to write their entire life stories!! Oh, one more thing, in the case that Inuyasha COULDNT read, then I'm fairly sure Kagome would teach him P.S: Kuro, just thought I'd assure you, your post did make sense ^_^

I was sort of wondering what kind of realistic world Nobara was talking about, when in the 'real' world kagome and inuyasha don't even exist. I really don't know a lot about Takahashi besides the fact that she created inuyasha, but even i think that she'll have a happy ending, i mean she could've just let kagura die alone, but instead she put sesshoumaru with her, it might be just me but the moment that kagura died i was sad but almost sad and happy at the same time, not because I don't like kagura, but the moment was...dang i just can't explain it never mind...

With out a doubt they are my favorite anime couple, but I think they need alot of growing up, Kagome pretty much gets mad over almost everything he does and doesnt trust him with Kikyo. Inu-Yasha on the other hand does not trust her with anyone. You can really tell its a product of Rumiko-san.

And at the same time... they're both only kids. And they're pretty much, y'know, unexperienced as far as relationships go. Sure, Inuyasha had fallen for Kikyou at first, but that relationship pretty much ended before it even got a chance to start. Kagome outright says that she's never even dated a guy before. Heck, Inuyasha was the first boy who ever even hugged her the way he has.
Awwwwe.
I'm definitely rooting for these two, though. As immature as they are, I definitely think their relationship is one that was meant to grow.

I was actually thinking about how the series would end myself the other night. Now, if the usual sci-fi/fantasy rule of "change something in the past, it changes the future" holds true...let's say they retrieve the complete Shikon no Tama, defeat Naraku, and Kagome purifies the jewel. If she does this in the Feudal Era, I'm thinking that the jewel would no longer end up in her body in the future (as Midoriko's fight will have been ended and the jewel goes *poof*) and the rest of history would be changed completely. I see it as a big ol' reset button - Kagome has no memory of what happened and when she goes to the well to retrieve Buyo...nothing happens and she goes on with the rest of her life. Then maybe she shortly after meets a rough-on-the-outside-soft-on-the-inside young man who looks vaguely familiar.... Ah, I've thought about this WAY too much! LOL
Anyway, the gist of all that musing is that I don't think it's possible for there to be a straightforward Inuyasha & Kagome get together and live happily ever after ending (as much as I want it!). But that doesn't mean that it can't end in a reasonable, non-depressing manner (by that, I mean not slaughtering main characters or other such drastic and heartbreaking events).

I am a really big shipper for the couple of Inuyasha and Kagome . And I really do hope that these two end up living happily ever after with each other. The only thing is, that I am a bit cynical of these two actually being able to get together . I mean yes there is the issue of after every thing is all said and done of where the two of them are going to live, in Kagome's time or Inuyasha's time. But actually there are so many other things that are obstackles in there path that are far more pressing; mostly in regardes to personel issues. One of them is security and commiment , at this point (Kagome in particular) nieghther of them know what is going to happen to their relationship. Inuyasha still has his obligations to Kikyou and "protecting" her. And from Kagome's perspective, Kagome is still in the position of "accepting" that inuyasha has choosen Kikyou, and is just tagging along regardless. I mean despite the fact that Inuyasha hasn't gone running to Kikyou every time that she shows up doesn't really mean anything if you really think about it. Other than that conversion back at the well in vol.18 eppie 48, Inuyasha and Kagome haven't discussed the suble changes that have occurred in their relationship. Another thing is maturity, and I'm not talking about how the two of them have to "grow up" and act more adult either, ( although that is certainly an issue as well). The state of their relationship is still very... I don't know juvanile, I supose. There relationship needs to progress more and beyond breif moments of awkawrd intimacy, and blushing when ever they are confronted with their feelings, and cease denying that they even have feelings for one another to begin with ( although these things are what make their relationship cute however, but still...). And stop the childish eppisodes of distrust, ie : when Kouga shows up; and stop pushing each other away when they get close to one another; than maybe there relationship will pregress. I mean the two are not very open with therir feelings with each other most of the time. I guess I just find it a bit jarring, the passion and intimacy of Inuyasha and Kikyou's perviouse relationship and their openess of their affection and love for one another, when compared to Inuyasha and Kagome's very adolencent and awkward interactions with one another. When I see the way Inuyasha has been with Kikyou, I just see alot more room for growth and expansion that still needs to be done with Kagome and Inuyasha's realtionship. I mean if I was Kagome and I saw Inuyasha's passion for Kikyou and his easy affection towards her, I think I'd want that too. I mean Inuyasha still on a regular basis treats Kagome rather rudely and calls her a "bitch", and Kagome is no better with her mean osuwaries all the time. But even if these two get beyond even that, I have a feeling that their time together is going to be cut short in one form or another. I feel that there whole bond is solderfied by the quest and the adventure that is the search for the jewel shards and the destruction of Naraku, and that when that is done [glow=red,2,300]SOMeTHING[/glow] will happen that is going to tear them apart Dear God I HOPE NOT, because I love these two and I despretly want them together and happy, but I have this sinking feeling that the scene at the well with Kagome and Inuyasha after Inuyash chose Kikyou, was some kind of forshadowing.

Well, I got the 2nd movie(bought it myself)-that's what I call an accomplishment. Anyway I hope they stay together, if they don't - there won't be a reason for Inu-Yasha, now will there. Were not just watching Inu-Yasha for his fina ass( I am ;D) or for the beautiful graphics & music, but for the relationship between kagome & the Shikon No Tama.( I hope I spelled that right ) I know It's going to end soon for us in the U.S., but I hope I have enough money to get the manga, & for it to continue. If it ends I won't have anything to lift my spirits when I 'm down at night . I'm prayin' really REALLY hard!

But wouldn't that be how anime does all kissing scenes? They are never all that explicit about it. It actually ALWAYS looks like their faces are pressed together. Connected at the lips. But now I don't really WANT to watch Movie 2, for some reason. -_-

When I saw the kiss it looked like Kagome was kissing his fangs & teeth. It was funny, but yeah the movie is a great movie. I can't wait until the third movie comes out in the U.S. ( I'm a have to save some money )
