Episode 147: Kagome no Kekkon Kyousou Kyouku!?
Kagome's Wedding Rhapsody!?
Continuing their search for a way to the boundary between this world and the next, Inuyasha's group learns of "following to the grave", a traditional wedding vow. However, if someone marries a person who is already dead, after a ritual, they could conceivably follow that person to the grave without dying themselves. However, the dead person who is available to marry is... !?

Of course, the entire list of news events totally had me spitting soda everywhere. XD Not to mention....

SLAUGHTERHOUSE. XD


... XD XD XD

X)

Okay, I'm going to have to go and pick myself up off the floor a few times again. Not to mention I need to ask you once again...

MARRY ME?!

[HMPrune]

OK - I'm finally responding, but I was up this morning at 5am (couldn't sleep) and checked out the site and you almost gave me a heart attack! People shouldn;t have to read the fine print ALL THE WAY AT THE BOTTOM OF THE PAGE at 5 a.m.!!!

However - this was truly a work of genius - am printing out my favorites, especially the movie synopsis. I guess that I don't have to see the third movie now, right?

And now I'll be spending the rest of the day wondering - is the manga REALLY ending? Richard Cox really gone? Miroku really a girl...? and worst of all Inuyasha on Toonami??!!

[therhoda]

You gave me Heart Failure!!!!!!!!! IT was a cruel and mean thing to do! I hope You got alot of fun out of it. Man You just had me so upset i was like where did this come from. It is good to know You truly know all of My fears and just how to tweak my whole system into over drive! I think the toonami fear was the worst! gaghh I don't even want to contemplateit any more.

::gives everyone a hug:: Yes, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. It was rather mean of me but... I've always wanted to do an April Fool's site. ^_^* I tried to make it as obvious as possible that everything was fake (without COMPLETELY exposing the joke), but I'm sure there's probably some people out there who really will take this seriously.

Dun worry, it'll be back to business as usual tomorrow.

All I have to say is

THANK YOU FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT SECTION!

I was reading it at school and then all of a sudden I started laughing out loud when it was all silent cuz we were supposed to be doing a project. Everyone started staring at me like I was some crazy person.... ok well maybe I am some crazy person but that's not the point. I hope you do something like that again, it was really funny.

Crowd: MORE THUMBNAIL THEATER!

[Patches]

Heh, the Thumbnail Theatre thing was something I'd actually started a month ago, and the April Fool's edition of the site just gave me a reason to finish it ^_^*.

And, darn it, the Adult Swim site had an April Fool's joke about an Inuyasha marathon of new episodes next week. I should have incorporated that, since I'd actually have something to link for it, too. ^_^*

Oh, and cookies to the person who knows what series my fake upcoming episode titles came from (I changed names and terms to match Inuyasha, but other than that, the titles are the same).

[echolalia]

Oh man, I am so glad I checked this site today... XD

Bad Sesshoumaru! No treat!

[COSniper]

You almost had me Patches...I logged in (I have a favorite link to the site and it pops me in the middle of the page usually), and was about to start freaking out about the Manga ending when my internet browser just closed (my motherboards screwed so it loves to piss me of by crashing) I logged back in and typed in the URL by hand and realized the image had changed. Sesshou Goya didnt sound right and after exploring the page a little found the text on the bottom of the screen.

Close...I'll give you that. Who would expect someone to change their entire site for an April fools joke??
...Goes and writes down idea for future reference ...

Genius, pure and complete Genius...

Unfortunately, half the people on Anime-Kraze's forums actually fell for it.

Multiple times...

InuyashaLovesKagome seems a tad... overzealous to snatch up anything and everything I commit to the web. Including a lot of artwork (dude... stop hotlinking me...).

[HMPrune]

Obviously your influence is wide reaching...

I just checked out Inuyasha Banana and she has the whole thing down word for word, and has been trying to confirm with the AdultSwim boards all day! (I sent her an e-mail to calm her down - I hope she gets it soon).

Patches, remember what Uncle Ben told Peter Parker "with great power comes great responsibility". You got the power girl!

(I still think it was funny, and I won't tell that I too was checking the AdultSwim Boards before I finally read the bottom of the page...)

[Patches]

::clutches head:: Gah, and my whole purpose for making the original site was to have a RELIABLE news source. I guess I was a tad TOO reliable, as now everyone is believing everything I say, even when I SAY it's a joke...

With that said...

IT IS NOW APRIL 2ND!! THE OFFENDING PAGE HAS BEEN REMOVED!! AAA-HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

...

but it's been archived here.

Stupid trivia about the April Fool's page:

- "Inu Goya" literally means "small enclosure for dogs", but is generally taken to mean "kennel". "Sesshou Goya" is just a made-up word whose origins should be obvious, but it would translate as something like "small enclosure for killing". Therefore, the best one-word description I could come up with was "slaughterhouse", which worked towards my purposes rather well. ^_^

- The fake episode titles actually come from Slayers. "Episode 147" was actually Slayers episode 15, "Episode 148" was Slayers NEXT episode 17, "Episode 149" was Slayers TRY episode 16, and "Episode 150" was Slayers episode 3 (all altered slightly to incorporate Inuyasha character names instead of Slayers character names).

- The "eighth ending" is the closing credit music for the movie "Lost in Translation".

- Spike Spencer is the dub voice for Shinji in Evangelion. ... I hate Shinji's dub voice with a passion.
