cruel tenderness

The saintess in dress in the cool breeze and the cold spring, and the half-human half-demon boy in red, have undoubtedly been stamped with the mark of loneliness by the world. So, there is no doubt that they are in love with each other. However, this happiness is too far away, too heavy, she is too different from him after all, this cannot be overcome by the strength of the two of them. So, it was wrong, too strong love created more intense hatred, so it is said that they did not get a good death in their previous life.
However, this love is too deep, so after thousands of years after she has experienced countless reincarnations, he will still fall in love with the same person without hesitation. At this point, the story seems to have fallen into a rut. But Takahashi is Takahashi after all, and turning corruption into magic is just a matter of the master talking and laughing; so the Kikyo in the previous life was resurrected in the wilderness with the flickering ghost fire.
From here, I was officially, unable to extricate myself, to fall in love with this work.
The choice at this time is no longer simple A and B, she is still you, because the two of you are the same person.
It's heart-wrenching every time it appears. The most successful part of the cartoon is to use a larger space to describe the unswerving love between Kikyo and Inuyasha. Now she can only appear in the night with a body that cannot move without a soul. She wants to live, but it is meaningless, but she is cruel and unwilling to die. Even if she has the magic power that everyone admires, Calling the wind and calling for the rain can make the world's life go smoothly, but it can't exchange for what you want most. Her contradictions are so clear and profound, for exorcising strangers, but becoming demons again and again for loved ones. Why bring me back to life, see you, and then let me fall in love with the world so much; is the person standing beside you the me after death, and if she is me, then who am I?
This is the tenderness that takes your breath away in the slaughter of corpses and blood, which is so poignant and beautiful, but more cruel than those killings.

Inuyasha quotes

  • Kagome: [after Miroku observes that Inuyasha isn't such a bad guy] Miroku is right. Inuyasha could have killed the artist, and ended the trouble in one blow. But instead, he spared the man's life and went straight for the ink pot. Yeah, I guess Inuyasha's all right. He just doesn't know it yet. I might tell him, someday, if the time is ever right.

  • Inuyasha: [thinking about Kagome] As long as she's alive and well, that's all I hope for. I can't bear to see another woman die.
