well i can just see kohaku and shippou getting in the way and ruining the fight.  distracting naraku from the others. starting another fight.  then leaving another 200 chapters for us! 

ya that poem DOES go well with inu and kag ^^

Ok..off topic.. Anyways,  I'm ecstatic Kagome has her powers back. Like everyone says…I know she'll kick some demon booty. You know what would be really ironic, too? If after all the times IY has saved Kagome, imagine she ends up saving him. Wow. I can just envision that. 

Kagome: STAY AWAY FROM MY HANYOU! SZJEJHECDKMEDBDEIHBH! -kills Naraku-

  First time I actually sign in to leave a comment.  Love the site and I love reading the comments everyone leaves on here.  I know this might be a little off subject, but I guess I'm just one of those rabid fangirls at heart.  I'd heard this poem yesterday while watching a movie and I thought it fit InuYasha's and Kagome's relationship.  Bare with me: 

In & Out of Time by Maya Angelou

The sun has come.
The mist has gone.
We see in the distance…
our long way home.
I was always yours to have.
You were always mine.
We have loved each other in and out of time.
When the first stone looked up at the blazing sun
and the first tree struggled up from the forest floor
I had always loved you more.
You freed your braids…
gave your hair to the breeze.
It hummed like a hive of honey bees.
I reached in the mass for the sweet honey comb there….
Mmmm…God how I love your hair.
You saw me bludgeoned by circumstance.
Lost, injured, hurt by chance.
I screamed to the heavens….loudly screamed….
Trying to change our nightmares into dreams…
The sun has come.
The mist has gone.
We see in the distance our long way home.
I was always yours to have.
You were always mine.
We have loved each other in and out
in and out
in and out
of time.

From the Movie:  Madea's Family Reunion

  I thought the poem was beautiful and that it described what they, (InuYasha and Kagome), feel about each other.  Yeah, yeah, I know, crazy fangirl thoughts from a crazy person.  Well anyways, I've written an extremely long comment and to get back on subject, hopefully this manga has a very fulfilling ending that everyone will be happy with,(crossing fingers ).  It could end up like "Firetripper", with Kagome staying with InuYasha in his time.  Or like someone once maybe commented, one big acid trip.  Either way, can't wait for the next scanlation and keep up the great work Starks and good luck with your new job when you get it.  Kagome's gonna kick,(maybe?),some major ass!

As for Rin Kokonoe, I wouldn't know. You would be hard pressed to find anything sicker than a 50 year old Mom with a preteen daughter trolling a loli site, and I really have no interest there.

"You guys have the Rin/Sesshoumaru thing all wrong. I think Rin is Sesshomaru’s pet. I’ve certainly seen enough people get all gooshy about their pets."

Rin isnt a "future lover" to sesshoumaru, neither is she only a "pet" to him. Shes pretty much an "adopted niece" to sesshoumaru.

Rin Kokonoe is pretty much the spokesperson for the DFC loli archetype ("delicious flat chest"). She and the rest of the Kodomo no Jikan cast proved that being as flat as an ironing board was not a handicap nor simply a clever plot device.
