I hope Naraku's death is extremely painful…
What? He deserves it.
Wait a dang-on second, an 'unexpected attack'…? I hope no one gets injured. ;_;

Well, this may be the bloody moment that I have waited so patiently for. Hang that, I'm not patient at all, who am I trying to fool?

My dad called and he said not to tap anybody with Tetsusaiga because the might get bruises, however, I hope to see more than just bruises for Chapter 544.

Did Starks-senpai find a new translator?

Puppy, why do I need a new translator when I still have Patches? ^_^

hahaha yeah, he probably takes Kohaku kun hostage XD

Naraku is very powerful,  and it should be easy to him to kill Inuyasha and he's friends, but he's always just inside he's stupid um.. uh… barrier(?) thing, laughing "kukukuku" and then running away, or hiding somewhere!

He's one of my fav characters but it's annoying he's doing that always xD

I say Kagome gets injured…

I think at the end of it all, Kagome dies but Sesshoumaru brings her back

I think Inuyasha will become an apprentice to Myoga as a pimp. 

     After years of dedicated labor he inherits "Myoga's House of Love" and renames it "Inuyasha's International House of Pancakes".  Going straight he tries to shake off his troubled past by turning to the bottle.

   After years of boozing it and hitting rock bottom (after he pimped out Sango he and Miroku lost touch…) he finally realizes his folly and turns to Budha.  Divorcing Kagome and swearing an oath of celibacy he shaves his head and fervently throws his life away in hopes of redeaming his tainted soul.  With the truth of his life dawning on him he begins his life anew in steadfast remuneration of his previously wicked life. 

    After years of service in the Budhist temple he has developed quit a repetoire.  His exploits include bringing fresh water and good food to those needy souls he once exploited for their curvaceous bodies.  He also became quit an adept carpenter and built and rebuilt houses for those he wronged by destroying their homes while on his drunken rampages.  On the last leg of his journey towards retribution he must confront Miroku and Sango and attempt to make peace.

(Inuyasha approaches the run-down shanty that Miroku and Sango now inhabit)

(knock-knock) (From somewhere beyond the straw door he hears a man, heavily intoxicated yell some beligerent blabber at another, who wimpers as if afraid.)

(Miroku kicks the door off its hinges to see who has awoken him from his drunken, yet peaceful, slumber.)

Miroku:  What the hell are you doing here you sonafabitch!  I KILL YOUR ASS BITCHES!

Inuyasha:  I came to apologize for putting your old lady on the streets…I can not take back what I did…alls I can do is put this matter before you and pray you can forgive me…

(Miroku scratches his ass while thinking)

Miroku:  Fuck it!  It's ancient history!  Besides, I've done my fair share of heinous shit in my day!  Who am I to judge?

Inuyasha:  Buy you a drink?

Miroku:  I thought you'd never ask!

With his past behind him Inuyasha goes on to live a long and fulfilling life for many hundreds upon hundreds of years.

Fast forward to present day:  Inuyasha is a wealthy bussinessman with a classical education living in modern day New Jersey.  He teaches History at Princeton University and is currently running for president in 2008. 

INUYASHA FOR PRESIDENT BABY!!!  YAY!!!!

Amusing story, I will admit, but completely impossible — InuYasha was not born in America, or American territory, so he can't run for president. Also, I'm not trying to be a dick here, but bear in mind that "remuneration" means payment and not repayment. 

 As for the spoiler, not a whole lot to go on. I suspect that Takahashi has run out of any semblance of plot development for the time being and is returning to her "happy place": arbitrary stuff happening.

Oh man… more stuff drags on. How about We kill naraku and just end this thing already?

Naraku will take somebody hostage? Kohaku AGAIN! That such a lame typical Naraku behavior, somebody should send him the idiots guide to villian techniques. lol
I hope in the next manga the group will finally get back together, I mean isnt everybody wondering where the hell is Shippo? JK
I agree with ANT, the spoiler doesnt gives us much, but still I am keeping my fingers crossed that Kagome arrow did something interesting.  

(Quote)

You know, I honestly think that Naraku will attack Kagome, even if she's with Inuyasha. Then again, I have a tendancy to be wrong, but seriously. Normally when someone hits you you're going to hit that person back. Or maybe the closest person to them. I'm thinking he's either going to attack Kagome or Inuyasha. But then again, it did say unexpected…

  

(Quote)

AHH THE SUSPENSE!!

I agree with Fear_the_Fluff, Naraku would probably attack Kagome cause she hit him first. LOL that's what I would do

An unexpected attack….

i have the most weirdest(and random) feeling that sesshoumaru is gonna get attacked. i dont know why…..

  

(Quote)

Wow. Imagine if he did.

Oh FEYD bless your heart I too have always felt they will end up in New Jersey, where else.  There is one aspect of the story you forgot.  You see when Naraku is defeated the tremendous blast  hits Sesshomaru and Rin.  They end up in modern day Japan at Kagome's family shrine where they are rescued by Kagome's grandfather and mother.  Wonder of wonders who should have been brought back by the blast but Kagura and to everyone's surprise Naraku who has been rendered and powerless old man.  Sesshomaru raises his sword to kill him but Kagura pleads for him saying. "Please after all he's my father!".  Sesshomaru did always have a soft spot for her so they become a family Sesshomaru, Kagura, Rin and of course "Dad".  Modern Japan is not a good place for people as unique as a Dog Demon, a Wind Sorceres and of course an ex-all powerful evil Demon.  Kagome's brother comes to the rescue when a friend shows him an issue of "Weird New Jersey"  "You guys will blend right in there!" So the now "Inutiescho" family move to the Jersey Shore where they blend right in.  Kagura gets her real estate license and goes on to have her own office.  Sesshomaru hangs out his shingle and goes on to a lucritive career as a Psycho therapist.  And of course Rin grows into a lovely teenager at the local High School.  Naraku lives with them as the grandfather in a power wheel chair as Sesshomaru warns him to not Corrupt their children (they have two eventually) warning that he'll put him in the "home".  They live in my neighborhood actually, nice family, interesting garden.

Ah sweet, that thing is getting closer and closer to the end! Finally!

I was starting to feel all bored from the endless storyline, but now I'm back to being hooked!

I think that Naraku will take Kagome hostage or hes going to atack her. Because she hit him with the errow. And I have a fealing that in the end kagome will make a wish on the shikon no tama and everyone will be saved even Miroku. And then Kagome dies because Naraku hurts her.

I think thats what going to happen its just a big juess.

@Patches, would you think that probably the word "core" may represent better the meaning of the original word? Well, I guess it depends on the chapter   

(Quote)

I strongly doubt Kagome will die unless she is somehow resurected right away.  As in most stories like this you kind of know what the final outcome will be right at the beginning of the story.  We know Naraku must be defeated (or the world as we know would not exist in the present).  It goes to figure that it will be Inuyasha and Kagome who will defeat him because it is their destiny and the reason Kikyo came back as Kagome in the first place.  As I stated once before Kagome is the main character and not a tragic character as Inuyasha is, she represents us. Anyone in this saga is open to die at the end but her.  I'm reluctantly thinking perhaps the one to die or at least to sacrifice might be Sesshomaru. Rumiko has been slowly developing his character and it would make sense if at the end Inuyasha and Kagome were able to defeat Naraku due to a Sacrifice by Sesshomaru. If that happens Rin will go with Kohaku and Sango (redeeming herself by lovingly caring for Rin) and Miroku I hope.  It would make sense that eventually Rin would have to go back to the human world also it sets up an opportunity for Sesshomaru's mother to make a repeat appearance to take back her son (and hopefully bring him back).  That's what makes this so much fun, speculation on what will eventually happen both serious and silly.  I hope she (Rumiko) surprises us and really does it right!!!  Of course I can't imagine the pressure she must be under with a world of eager fans hanging on her every word to the end.  If she does it not to their satisfaction will they attack?  Will there be a bloodbath?

It's my first comment, so … Hi everyone!

 At first I want to thak you Starks and translators for all you have done. I've been reading your translations from a long time and I really really appreciate it, you're pretty good.

Well about story – personally I think Rumiko shoud finish off Naraku earlier and eventualy create another tottaly different 'boss' who would have his own new motives, and the way he act/ work. I think it's quite a pity that whole storyline is about to finish off Naraku, kind of waste whole potential. But Even though I am a great fan of Inuyasha, I love this title and heroes. And I am glad that the story is about to end, because prolonging it would prejudice Inuyasha.

Aww and to next chapter, I hope the next Joke Page will be about hilarious but ridiculous speculations about Inuyasha-President living in USA xP
