This was excellent! Love the new style, especially with the shadowy thought printing! But also, about the chapter, excellent! So I think I was right! Tenseiga was once combined with Tetsaiga! They were once one sword/weapon! It's almost symbolic. Out of one awesome weapon (Inutaisho), came two seperate but equal swords (Sesshoumaru & Inuyasha).
I can't wait till next week, and Shishinki, how come everybody's so suprised that he's alive? Is there something to that? I think the two brother swords will have to combine before they can defeat that half-faced, but cute, demon. Also the origin of Tenseiga is revealed!

(However, is there some inconsistancies? I thought Totosai made both swords from Inutaisho's fangs? How was Tenseiga born then? And it was only when Totosai reforged it that it was able to use to Meidou Z., was the power buried or something?)  

(Quote)

Maybe – Tessaiga absorbed the Meido technique, and then inu-papa had Totosai draw out the Meido and put it in a new sword he had forged just for that technique. Perhaps he even attacked Shishinki just to steal that technique on purpose.  

(Quote)

I'm guessing that first came Tessaiga, which absorbed Shishinki's meidou. Papa didn't want Tessaiga to have the meidou power (Because the sword would be too powerful then?) So he had Totosai forge another sword from another fang and somehow imbue the new sword with the life-giving power as well as hiding the potential to create a meidou in it so that after Sesshoumaru grew up a little he'd have something equal to Tessaiga.

So, technically, they started out as one sword which is now divided in two. If it's any consolation to our resident purebred, technically he's been using Tessaiga all through the whole series. Which also means he lost his arm for nothing.  

(Quote)

Poor Sesshoumaru…this is going to hurt him. He already feels bad about not getting Tetsaiga, not he finds that his sword is just a part of Tetsaiga, while his little half-brother got the whole sword.  

(Quote)

Is it just me, or are the weapons in this series now so ridiculously anthropomorphized that they're recieving more attention and development than the characters themselves?

Was Sango not recently asked to decide who she loved more: Her boomarang or Miroku? Was the decision not reached by a slim margin after pages and pages of mental anguish?

Now Tessaiga is having kids.

Just sayin'.  

(Quote)

so does this mean that If Inu Yasha and Sesshoumaru run at each other with swords drawn, and they collide, there will be one giant sword ( yes, even bigger than Tessaiga)!  

(Quote)

Oooh, a the long awaited chapter and the next one will be much more awaited (I guess I'm not alone^^)!
Umm… does this mean that maybe Tenseiga is forged from Tessaiga perhaps? Was a part of it?
>>1186: Irene, I feel the same. You spoke from my heart.
And the 18th page Sesshoumaru's face… well… poor Sesshoumaru

But the last page was.. was… waah! I can't find the right word to describe it!!!! I almost fell off my chair because of laughing so hard! xD
It was a good idea -to snap me out of my daze after seeing poor Sesshoumaru's face…   

(Quote)

Ooo! That was a nice chapter! ^-^ Sesshoumaru's face on the last page (18) is scary. XD

And the extra 19 was great!

(credit to Invader ZIM for that one)

And the more I read your comments, the more it looks as though I'm getting the same impression. It seems that Tenseiga was sort of… spawned from Tessaiga. It's kind of funny to think of a sword going through mitosis to create another one; a splitting of blades.

That very funny picture will reside in my skull for all of eternity now…  

(Quote)

Don't forget that Tenseiga is sword not from this world.

Anyway, it seems that Inutaisho didn't absorb all the power of Shishinki and now Sesshoumaro have to finish the job.

Maybe Tessaiga fired back, when Inutaisho sliced Shishinki?

It may be totally unrelated, but there is something bizarre. Tenseiga the sword not from this word was left in this world, while Tessaiga the original sword from this world was hidden in the youkai graveyard.  

(Quote)

Yeah~I saw the chapter well^^Thanks~
My question is solved, too.(What will happen if Meidous of Shishinki and Sesshy hit together?)
And like Kirara or Shippou(they often go somewhere), the strange kid also disappeared…he is flying in the air…kuku…

I agree with you, too. It seems that tessaiga and tenseiga were originally the one, especially to tessaiga. My dear….

I think there is some intention of father, I don't want to think he gave Sesshy just to make him poor. Another intent-for instance, once the brother fight together with Shishinki sincerely, then the tenseiga could absorb the enemy's power(I'd like this more.).
Well well but my guesses are usually incorrectㅠ;; I must wait the next chapters   

(Quote)

>Snow
Maybe the stories from head of Inu's father…kuku…He knew the circumstances will be like this.(just kidding)
My guess-Tenseiga is the sword of the world of the dead, but Sesshy is alive so it was given to him. However, Inuyasha was too young to draw the tessaiga, then the father just leave the black pearl in Inu's right eye and thought someday he could take it(Oh, if really it is, he could be a fortuneteller kuku…). Just My supposition, so don't throw stones or knieves, or shoot me ^^;
What a complicated situation. OTL Hard to know Takahashi Rumiko sang's brain…

Kaze, here's your answer.

(Quote)

Interesting indeed. Who would've thought Tensaiga is a castoff of Tessaiga? Hm… I also think InuTaisho "stole" the technique as Inu does when battling a baddie. Originally, I was under the impression that InuTaisho maliciously stole the technique, but now I'm guessing it was in the heat of battling Shishiki, who probably instigated the battle or otherwise provoked InuTaisho by harming others. And I bet the "life" powers are just a side-effect of the Meido attack, giving him a really nice little power-up bonus.

I'm not sure why InuTaisho would think Tessaiga "too powerful" and decide to cast off the Meido powers, though. Why? Was he too afraid that an enemy could get its hands on it and be virtually unstoppable with the power to wreak absolute havoc, and have the power over life and death?

Maybe, maybe.

Anyway, I'm still confused by the Meido's depictions here. Sesshy's looks two-dimensional, and Shishinki's looks three-dimensional. Maybe b/c it's a whole Meido? I like the 2D "gateway" look a lot more than the 3D "wrecking ball" look.  

(Quote)

Oh, and is this a red flag that we're approaching the end of the series or what? We now have Tessaiga's "final form" figured out, and it's a real doozy, a big enough deal for fans to buy that yeah, it might really kill Naraku. I mean, it's Tensaiga and Tessaiga for goodness' sake.

You need to install torrent downloading program (Azureus, uTorrent, BitComet). It would associate itself with .torrent files and when you download one, it would start automatically.

The .torrent file contains the URL of central server (tracker). You connect to it put your address and get addresses of some other people running same kind of program (peers). You download data from them, and in return other people are downloading from you.

Download is done on small blocks, transfered in random order. The .torrent file contains checksums of these blocks, so the protocol can also repair files (aka form of resume).

(Torrents are the standard way to download any fansub or scanlation nowadays. Not many groups offer direct downloads or anything else.)

So, what do you guys think about the impact that this entire thing about Tenseiga being born from Tessaiga will have on Sesshoumaru?  

(Quote)

He's either going to have a major emotional breakdown, or he's going to get really angry. I'm betting on the latter. Either way, it's probably not going to be good at all, based on how Myouga is feeling about the whole thing at the moment. His nervousness tells us Sesshoumaru is going to react badly in any case.  

(Quote)

I know he's gonna be angry, but do you think he's gonna snap?  

(Quote)

It's difficult to tell, but I DO think that he will snap. If we're correct and Tenseiga is an extention or "offspring" of Tessaiga, that might very well be the last blow to his pride. Even if that doesn't really mean anything negative about Tenseiga's potential, Sesshoumaru is likely to interpret it VERY badly. If this happens, it might go multiple ways, but all of them seem like bad options for Sesshoumaru at this point. He might go vindictive against Inuyasha again, trying even HARDER to kill him than before, or he might allow himself to be killed, or even kill himself for lack of a sense of self-worth.

Either way it goes, I have my doubts as to whether or not Sesshoumaru will come out of this one alive.  

(Quote)

As long as there is an Inu no Taisho flashback, I don't care how Sesshy reacts.  

(Quote)

I wouldn't be too suprised if he would snap – and even break Tenseiga o.O
So far I tried to understand the swords meaning and why Tessaiga went to Inuyasha and Tenseiga to Sesshoumaru and I thought I succeed. But I think this was just plain evil from Takahashi Rumiko / on Inutaishou's part.
I mean… we all know (?) very well how Sesshoumaru feels about Tessaiga and how did he abandoned Tenseiga for a long time. And now when it seems he finally accepts it – after all it's a treasure, a heirloom from his father -, things just like… like everything he built to use this katana is falling down. This must be really hard for him.
Though I can't wait to see the next chapter – to see how Takahashi Rumiko will continue the storyline.

PS.: Lys: everything, just not Sesshoumaru!!! T_T :'(  

(Quote)

The strange thing is that Sesshoumaru knew the capabilities of the Tenseiga – at least some if not all of them. This tells me that either inupapa told him about it or he saw it first hand. But he knew nothing of the Tenseiga. So inupapa never mentioned it or demonstrated it to his son. Totosai seemed reluctant to have Sesshoumaru obtain those abilities because he saw him as cruel and evil.  

(Quote)

I'm willing to bet that after Sesshoumaru inherited Tenseiga that he went to Totosai to see what it could do. Seems only natural that you go to the one who forged (or oversaw the making of, in whatever way this sword was "born") the sword to figure out what sort of potential it has. That could also explain why Totosai seems to be so afraid of Sesshoumaru on a personal level.

Arvael: Not really sure what you meant by your last comment. Do you mean that you agree with everything I said, except for the last few parts about Sesshoumaru possibly dying?  

(Quote)

Inucat>> I think you got your words mixed, but I'll respond.

Sesshoumaru might have known a lot about Tessaiga because he expected to get it as his inheritance. He didn't even look at Tenseiga much. However he must not have traveled with his father much, since he knows very little about the Tenseiga's birth.

Totosai wasn't reluctant, he was a servant and friend to Inutaisho, and Inutaisho knew his son's personality. That's why he put a seal on the Tessaiga and buried the true powers of the Tenseiga. He was planning for his sons' futures before he died. He knew that Sessho would try to kill Inu and vice versa. He wanted Sessho to learn compassion, and waited until that point before the sword could be reforged and used as an offensive weapon.

Starks>>
I think Sessho will either be stripped of all his haughty pride, or he will have a mental breakdown, or both! My poor Sesshy…:(

Kaze & Arvael>>
I love it when I meet non-English people on the web! It never ceases to amaze me. In America we don't get a big chance to learn a second or third language till high school. I myself have been learning French since high school, and I'm starting to learn Chinese now.

Well, Lys, yes. And it also should have been soudned as "anything, but Sesshoumaru", but I guess I was a little tired right after my exam :S
Sorry for that, thoughˇˇ"
But yes, I also agree with you with everything – just Sesshoumaru must.not.die!!!!!!!! :'(
Anyway, seems everybody has interesting theories about "Tenseiga's born" (even the scanlators – see page 19 ), and I really can't wait for the next wednesday! (firstly, because there will be a new chapter and secodnly, because it seems my exams will finally end there!!! yay for me -.-')

Irene, here in Hungary we can decide when we would start learning a foreign language (you can learn it in elementary schools, too), though when you attend high school you have to learn one by that time.
See, I've began English in kindergarten o.O (it was my parent's idea, but looking back, I'm grateful for it^^) and most of the students learn two languages in high school – well, you see Hungarian isn't a very… ummm… how to put it… eeer.. popular? widely-used? language^^" So we'll have to learn foreign languages to communicate outside our little country xD (that does not mean sadly that every people or most of the people here speaks at least one foreign languageˇˇ")
Ahem. Sorry, off topic^^"  

(Quote)

Tenseiga was never a consideration for Sesshoumaru because he had little idea of what it could do. All he knew (or suspected) was that it could resurrect the dead. His first "experiment" was Rin, so I pretty much assume he never saw inupapa use the sword at all. Totosai is afraid of Sesshoumaru and I do suspect he would rather Sess didn't have the Tensaiga at all. Wasn't it hinted or stated a few chapters back that Tensaiga was more powerful that Tetsaiga? But it doesn't matter anyway. I've concluded that it will take both swords wielded by both brothers to bring down Naraku. But future chapters may show otherwise, of course.  

(Quote)

I think Sessh's only possible reaction is to be pissed off, and I think at this point the question he has to ask is why his dad insists on jerking him around like this from beyond the grave. I think there are two main directions it can go:

1. Tenseiga really is a 'cast-off' of Tessaiga, and really is the inferior sword, which implies that despite all the respect Sesshoumaru has for his papa, he really is the less-valued son. That would confirm all of Sessh's worst fears, in which case he'd refuse to continue using the sword, would never consent to cooperating with Inu and Co. to kill Naraku, and the manga will never end. Or:

2. Tenseiga, despite being created second, is still equal to Tessaiga. Instead of being inferior it perhaps could be a refinement of Tessaiga – Tenseiga's powers are a little more subtle, and frankly more elegant, than Tessaiga's method of just busting the crap out of anything in its path.

I sort of favor the second option, since it means that Papa had two swords created for his sons that each fit their personalities somewhat. (Because lets face it, even though both the brothers are blockheads Sesshoumaru still has more style.) Sesshoumaru's whole journey in the story has not been about him growing stronger, but about him maturing.
That's why RT spends so much time focusing on her character's weapons – Tessaiga, Tenseiga, and now Hiraikotsu are literary devices through which she illustrates her characters' development. Granted, she leans on them a bit too heavily. That's what my English-major instincts are telling me, at least.  

(Quote)

>>1260

Toutousai is deathly afraid of Sesshoumaru… Why do you think he reforged Tenseiga for him with no questions asked?  

(Quote)

Because Tenseiga called him
That's why, ne?^^"
And here goes the question: why it called him? Because "it reacted to Sesshoumaru's change of heart"
Well, at least what's the manga series says… hmm…

Yeah, a change of heart…

(Quote)

Tessaiga= Earth, Tenseiga= Heaven, but it can open the door to Hell. Earth was once a part of Heaven, and in order to be complete, Hell, Heaven, and Earth have to become one. Now the question is to who gets the all power sword, Inuyasha or Sessy-sama? K.I.A. Sessy-sama!!!  

(Quote)

>1254 Inucat,
you are actually touching an interesting subject. Why Inutaisho was not revived by Tenseiga and e.g. Sesshoumaru?
I have the feeling that Inutaisho may have been revived once already…

It is also possible that there have been nothing left from him to be revived. However in that case he must have taken the opponent with him.

If this is the case, I don't think that this opponent could have been Shishinki, because in that case Inutaisho would not have the opportunity to learn the powers of the newborn sword and "write" last will.

But if we assume this is what did happened, then it would mean that Inutaisho last will have been made up by Myouga&Totosai, and Sesshoumaru would not forgive them such thing. Or maybe Totosai could hear Inutaisho last-will though the voice of the sword…

Oh, well, too many if's
Maybe I should try writing some fan-fiction.

—-
>1245
I don't see what's the big deal. It means Sesshoumaru already had the sword he's always wanted.

If the fuss is about Tenseiga been able to absorb powers from defeated enemies… The sword was not useful as weapon so he could not use that feature. And after reforging he would eventually find this out by himself, when he masters the sword.
Of course now he may try to steal Tessaiga powers, by defeating Inuyasha… if it is possible at all. But I don't see much sense… he can collect his own "cooler" powers
—-
>1261
I don't think it's #1 either. In volume13 chapter126 Totosai says "It's blade that neither surpasses nor is inferior to Tetsusaiga".
After that Sesshoumaru tested it on Jaken and eventually Rin.

And I also have a theory about why Tenseiga didn't save him back then – maybe it was used on him before, but you've already mentioned this idea.  

(Quote)

>1291 Arveal,
To say it simply, the manga should not contradict only with itself, but is allowed to contradict with movies and animes based on it (if they have done changes or made-up stuff, they'd eventually pay for that).

Third movie is know to have contradictions even with manga and anime series prior it, e.g. Sesshoumaru arm was sliced along. It also have different concept for hell, contradicting with latest chapters.  

(Quote)

~sigh~ Probably you're right; it's just I can't help, but try to imagine all the movies, anime- and manga-series of Inuyasha in one world where all parts of it creates a whole…  

(Quote)

>>1300

Correct. The anime, the movies, or the manga have yet to have any major contradictions yet. While this new revelation about Tenseiga puts a heavy dent in the credibility and honesty of Myouga and Toutousai, I assume that are both still lying or withholding information about a few things regarding the swords in order to not further piss off Sesshoumaru or Inuyasha.  

(Quote)

Thank you for the chapter, Freelance!

Hm…I think that Tenseiga was a cast off of Tesseiga but NOT an inferior sword. I believe that the powers of the Meidou and Tesseiga's other attacks, because they were opposite in nature, gave the sword problems. It was too much for one sword. Inupapa realized this and decided that the only way to solve the problem would be to split the sword into two equal parts. Near his death he figured both sons would gain one sword each, thus ensuring no power was lost, nor could they fight over who had truly inherited Inupapa's legacy.

In short, I feel that Inupapa figured that his sons would fight together, not against each other.

Wow, I'm totally p'lunnied. (plot bunnied). D:  

(Quote)

>> 1291: lol, the theory of Sesshoumaru being sexually attracted to Rin doesn't make much sense to me either, but to each his own. It's still up for interpretation, after all.  

(Quote)

What if? The original Tessaiga was weilded by Inutaisho, and when he fought Shishinki he absorbed the meido z. attack, but somehow the sword became unstable because of all the power it held. From the power of life and death, to the powers of the world of men. The sword ended up breaking in half.

Inutaisho later had Totosai reforge the two broken parts of the sword into two seperate swords. One became the Tenseiga: having the afterworld powers of life and death. And the other half, became the second Tessaiga, having the powers of the world of men. So in essence, both sons got half of the original sword and that's why neither can surpass each other or be inferior to each other.

This is also probably why the brothers fight so well when they're together (against another enemy), even when they fight and argue with each other. However, you notice, they've never faced off the Tenseiga and the Tessaiga before, have they?  

(Quote)

Wow Irene, it's really good idea!!!
And that also solves why Inutaishou gave TWO of his fangs in order to make the swords (yeah, don't ask, this was what was lacking in my "theory" and I mused about it for awhile, after this chapter came outˇˇ")
Anyway, great idea! I wonder Now I'm more curious about the next chapter!!!^^

That makes me so incredibly happy, Starks! And squishy too!

I still like the idea of the original Tessaiga going through a freakish sort of mitosis. But that could be because I think it's a pretty funny looking sequence in my head; it reminds me of the movie Evolution.  

(Quote)

Expanded preview for chapter 491 from 2ch.net

"Tenseiga is a sword that was part of Tessaiga. Sesshoumaru is dissapointed because he thought he has been given a part of Tessaiga which was useless, and grows angry. However, when he hears the truth of why he was given the Tenseiga, even though he knows why he still thinks it's not fair. Sesshomaru stops using the sword and just with his arm he charges at Shishinki, at the sametime Shishinki fires the Meidouzangetsuha."  

(Quote)

w00t! I GOTS TEH 1337 COMMENTZ!  

(Quote)

…. Not so happy (or squishy) anymore.

It's looking more and more like Sesshoumaru's gonna bite the dust. Last time he lost his temper, he had Tenseiga to pull him through, but based on the latest expanded description, not anymore. I sure hope I'm wrong…. I'd hate for Sesshoumaru's character and sword development simply to be for INUYASHA'S ultimate benefit. If that happened, then I'd feel like Inuyasha had somehow (inadvertently, of course) leached off of his brother and his work on Tenseiga.

Then again, if it had all been in vain for Sesshoumaru, it would seem a fitting end. After all, the guy IS incredibly self-centered.  

(Quote)

Oh Sesshoumaru…this is so you're coming of age arc. I liked my theory, but it sounds as its going to be wrong. However, why whould Sessho even believe the word of his father's enemy who wants to kill him anyway?

I think Sesshoumaru will go to afterworld and have a talk with his father. He will learn that the Tenseiga is not a peice of junk and that Inutaisho loved him just as much as Inuyasha. Then the Tenseiga will revive him, despite him descarding it, because he is its weilder. At least that's what I hope…

If Sessho dies, I'm abandoning this manga…:(
What of Rin, Sesshomaru? Rin needs you!

OMG…just got a brainstorm here!

Remember that in the very beginning Tessaiga transformed for the first time because Inuyasha used it to protect Kagome rather than to just fight?

What if, since the Tenseiga is part of the Tessaiga, it needs the same thing in order to transform? Remember, when Sessho went into hell and he was trying to save Rin, his Meido Z. got three times as big? Maybe changing the sword completely, means he will have to deny his pride completely, and openly, verbally admit that he cares for and is protecting Rin. (Like Inuyasha did when he transformed the Tessaiga. He said something like: "Shut up and let me protect you.") His father been trying to teach him this lesson of caring and protecting others before oneself since the beginning. It would make sense. I just got that brainstorm there.  

(Quote)

Patches elaborated a bit on the spoiler translation…

"Tenseiga is a sword that is a detachment from Tessaiga. Sesshoumaru wonders why he was given the unneeded piece from Tessaiga and becomes angry. Myouga does not understand in what mind Tenseiga was given or for what purpose. Sesshoumaru ceases using his sword and pierces through Shishinki with just his arm, but Shishinki lets loose multiple Meidou Zangetsuhas at the same time."  

(Quote)

My prediction:

Sesshoumaru will be saved by Inuyasha and he will realize that the swords are fundementally different. Sesshoumaru swallows his pride and together they beat Shihinki and travel together to kill Naraku.

It is a good chance to get everyone together for the final battle, wont be surprised if koga comes back soon.

Hello all! *waves*

Wow. This chapter and that joke page remind me of a friend of mine in the fandom who jokes that her OTP (one true pairing) is Inuyasha and Tessaiga. And now I'm having these really strange images of Tessaiga giving birth.

Somewhere in the back of my mind, I knew that the brothers would have to merge their swords as a powerful weapon, so for the ultimate weapon to defeat Naraku, I say: both of the swords together, using some sort of diamond-powered Meidou Zangetsuha along with Kagome's special "gift arrow" (does she still have it? can't remember). I'd like to think that Sango, Miroku, and Shippou would have some sort of place in the final blow, too, but they tend to be left in the background, so I won't hold my breath.

As for the "birth" of swords, something tells me that Takahashi forgot some of her earlier conceptions of Tenseiga and Tessaiga, as it is evident in this chapter that something's a bit off…unless she simply forgot to include this little tidbit of info, and she's making it into this "ZOMG SEKRIT POWAR!!1!" thing. O_o  

(Quote)

Ok….Speculation #3:

With the new info given yet again. I think Sesshomaru will find that the Tenseiga is just as powerful as the Tessaiga. Now that he's learned compassion, he now has to learn humility. He has to let his little brother help him. Inuyasha will jump in when his group is getting affected by the Meido Zangetsuha that Shishinki sends out at random. Inu will talk some sense into his brother's head about Rin and what's really important. Sessho, realizing that everything isn't about him, he will pick up the sword again. This time with a complete circle, he and Inuyasha will destroy Shishinki together!

You can't really have compassion without some level off humility, and being humble doesn't mean you're weak.

Inutaisho gave his life to protect Izayoi and Inuyasha, when he could have just let them go and worry about his own wounds. I mean, he wasn't legally married to Izayoi,and therefore owed her and her child nothing. Especailly being the great dog demon he is. He would have to have been crazy in the eyes of the other demons to risk so much. He was humble and didn't show off, but only used as much force as needed to, to help the people he loved.

He wanted to teach his son that the power he had was not important, but how and why to use is the key.  

(Quote)

That is right the power is nothing if you can't use it correctly.And if you have something to protect your power increases a thousand-fold.And just think about if Shess would inherited the Tessaiga maybe he had killed Inu in the first time they met.And Taisho didn't want it to.Furthermore Shess already had greatly powers and Inuyasha just half or quarter of it.So the Inuyasha is also a teaching serie bec. it teach Shessy how world's go on and Teach Inu what he have to do to act correctly!The old dog general will!
