Message: [QUOTE="AceWhatever, post: 270638, member: 373895"] Traction where and with whom? Even if we ignore the fact that the Naruto manga & anime kept going long after all Inuyasha media ran its course, both works were very different from one another. Naruto had a large cast with dozens of characters and several story arcs that relied heavily on prolonged shounen-style fighting and only loosely contributed towards Naruto's aim of becoming Hokage. Inuyasha had a much smaller by comparison core cast and almost everything that happens is in service of the main goal of completing the Shikon jewel and defeating Naraku. The fighting is intercut with exploring the relations between humans and demons, the cast's chemistry, Kagome's occasional return to her time and what she wants to do with her life. I liked Inuyasha at the time but it was definitely frustrating to have it drag on for so long and then for the first anime to just end inconclusively because the manga was still running. I even took time from my watch schedule to watch Yashahime (badly written as it was). [/QUOTE]
