InuYasha vol. 5

The blend of myth and adventure creates a unique world — I wonder how much of that was inspired by traditional stories versus Takahashi's imagination.

Some chapters felt a bit slower as the characters delved into backstories, but maybe that was necessary for character depth?

Takahashi's detailed illustrations really bring the world to life — do you think the art style enhances the sense of adventure or makes it feel more whimsical?
