Here's the part where I get to rant... well, not really rant. It's just a simple review of what I think of the Cartoon Network version of Inuyasha. Of course, the show hasn't been on all that long, and I guess I'm more than a little prejudice because of seeing nearly every episode out so far of the Japanese version. But anyway, I present my review so far of the Cartoon Network English version of Inuyasha.

Again, a warning. This is my own opinion, no one else's. ^^;

Just watched the first episode of Inuyasha on Cartoon Network. *takes a deep breath* All in all, I'd have to say it really wasn't all that bad... with the exception of Kagome's annoying monotone voice, and Kaede's not-really-there Scottish accent. I think they were really playing off the manga for that one... I really liked Inuyasha's voice; guess the 'bad boy' thing is really appealing. ^_^ They didn't mess with the original music thankfully. One thing that really, really irked me was the very first scene, where Inuyasha says something along the lines of "I thought we were..." right after he gets pinned to a tree. In the Japanese version, I really don't think that's inferred so much. In fact, I believe Inuyasha calls Kikyo a bitch. ^^; I was quite worried that the entire show was really going to be awful, but it did turn out pretty good in general. I'll still be watching next week... and still be downloading subbed episodes from Kaaza.
