Most recent chapter: #343 - "Fiancée"
So it looks like Miroku may have to take a stand on his betrothal to Sango, or that Takahashi has drawn us up another filler before the end of the series. Thoughts? Sentiments? Predictions?

Ok, so Miroku and Sango have hooked up, but what about Inuyasha and Kagome? Theyve been together what? Now its up to 137 (that we know off) and still no proposal. There needs to be one soon Inuyasha or your gonna lose her to Kouga!

I doubt that Inuyasha would lose Kagome to Kouga, she hardly treats him as more than a friend. If we're to get any response from Inuyasha, he needs to come to terms with his feelings for Kikyou first. Or if not, Naraku needs to be destroyed and the situation with the Shikon no Tama resolved. Maybe then he can dedicate more time to settling his own confused emotional issues, rather than bashing things around with the Tetsusaiga.

^_^* I'm kind of hoping that this whole fiancee' mess in chapter 343 will eventually lead to Sango finally calling Miroku by name. Of course, if THAT happens, we know the manga is well on its way to wrapping up.
Although, in all honesty, I'd REALLY like to see what Jaken's going to do with the youki crystal. Being the uber Jaken fan that I am, I'd love to see him get to do something halfway important. Poor little guy hasn't gotten to do a SINGLE plot-worthy thing in the manga yet, which makes me grateful to the scattered anime fillers that do stuff with him.
I should (hopefully) have 344 by tomorrow, so we can see just where this is going.

Although we all know he isn't the direct type, at least we can anticipate a surprise attack much like the battle in the Youkai Graveyard. Well, Jaken seems to be useful as a babysitter for Rin. That, and a subject of ridicule by the fans. But maybe Takahashi does have a little something in store - she is known for her twists.

Just wanted to give Inuyahsa some initiative. Besides, hopefully Kikyo is dead (for good) And the two can finally not have any distractions. Except Kouga cause he can be annoying... COSniper[/color]

What of the prospects of Kagura and Sesshoumaru? It was Rin who stated it blatantly this time around. Are we going to see anything aside from Kagura's frequent asks of assistance from our favorite full-youkai?

Jusgign by the fact that shes still a prisoner of Naraku and he hasnt wiped her memory Id say yes. She is still going to need some help cause shes weak as heck. Either Sesshoumaru or Inuyasha will have to free her.

Then again, the entirety of chapter 343 seemed to have the "Two steps forward, three steps back" theme. Kagura hooking up with Sesshoumaru would nullify her whole desire to be "free", and Sesshoumaru hooking up with Kagura would nullify his whole progression towards accepting humans. I'd kinda prefer that those two stay single by the end of the series.

Nice analogy Patches.
Ok, new question for this manga thread (I dont read manga so the answer could be blunt and obvious and I wouldnt know) At the end of the Inuyasha series, who are the couples going to be?
[shadow=gray,left,500]We got the Miroku-Sango one thats definite...
Inuyasha-Kagome had better come true...
Kouga and the other wolf girl (forget her name)...
And Sess is the one that remains stag...[/shadow]
Is there anyone I missed or messed up? Shippou seems lonely but I cant think of anyone he could go with.
(Awesome shadow text! Im gonna have to use it more often...)

Kouga and the other wolf girl (forget her name)... Considering Ayame is an original character for the anime, the chances of that happening are about nil. In other news, I just finished my initial read-through of chapter 344, "Past Mistakes". MASSIVE MiroSan tension in this one. Especially on the last page: Sango: "Somehow... I knew it wouldn't work out after all." Sango's in massive angst mode throughout the entire chapter. There's one part where Shippou turns into a giant angry floaty Sango head and terrorizes Miroku. ^_^*

The manga goes in chapters (I presume) and is not divided by episodes... Giant Sango head...! This I want to see![EDIT]...Typo, oops...[/EDIT] COSniper[/color]

*cringes in ph33r* :P
I love the little Shippou tail on the top of "Sango's" ponytail, it looks like a fluffy little scrunchie. However, it'd be funnier it if were coming out of her ears or nose, though also a little gross. :D
So this chapter may reinforce the Sango/Miroku relationship? From the way you said "strain", it seems like it's drifting in that direction...#nosmileys#nosmileys
