So its an anime, has clean lines for art, sound for the dub at least seems fine they trigger when they should. Both the art style and the audio are throw backs to the original works.
The story progression is really dumbed-down, everything is narrated to a simpleton level so that children or those who are super stoned can follow it.
Characters are basic which can be overlooked to a degree. The characters whole development seems to resolve around being a modern day angsty teen who is confused about what gender they should associate with.
Sadly the main draw to this story is that it plays on nostalgia but like many things has been hijacked by political ideologies and propaganda and tells you so several times an episode.

TL;DR: Final Act is the absolute best way to top the original Inuyasha series. It ends the story perfectly (albeit with a few tears) and I'd easily say that these 26 episodes are some of the best of the entire Inuyasha franchise.
L;DR
It took me a long time to get around to watching Final Act because I really didn't want the show to end! But I've just finished today, and after a half hour tears session I'm finally ready to explain my thoughts.
(This will just be a review on Final Act! Not on Inuyasha as a show!)
SPOILERS AHEAD, MAYBE?
STORY
I found that the story here, though it's technically just a continuation of what was going on in Inuyasha, was a lot easier for me to follow, as a viewer. The final battle was well executed and I was mostly satisfied with the outcome of the big confl…

I had started rewatching Inuyasha to see if nostalgia holds up. I can say I enjoy Inuyasha when it doesn't try to be too serious. Plot wise it started off pretty straight forward but then by Final Act I wish it hadn't grown so convoluted. SPOILERS ALERT:
THE JEWEL CAN TALK and sounds like a robotic man.
Once I got to the part where Naraku is able to be like a sea algae and regenerate himself and create too many clones, my interest in Naraku and the plot waned. I was just watching for the characters which I adore to interact with each other, for the comedic moments and for Inuyasha and Kagome moments.
Once I got to Final Act, I was left feeling disappointed. I sort of even regretted watching through it.
I felt in the beginning, Inuyasha was really strong because it didn't try to complic…

Oh my god. Where to begin with this series.
I loved it, it was a really enjoyable series to watch. The characters where hilarious and had unique personalities. The story was magnificent and the build up towards the end was amazing. This series defiantly takes number one on my favourites list. For an anime that was made awhile ago it has amazing story and character development.
I watched the entire series in one go ,watching it everyday because its so enjoyable. It never ceases to amuse me the way the characters argue and how comedic it is when Kagome returns home with InuYasha.
If you haven't seen this series I highly recommend watching InuYasha and The Finale Act, they are both amazing series that deserver the best praise.

Inuyasha: The Final Act is meant to continue where its early 2000s prequel had left off in the continuing plot of Inuyasha and his allies trying to stop Naraku and his plans with the Shikon no Tama. I might as well address the major issue with this series first that comes in the form of its pacing. A good chunk of the anime is quite notable for rushing through many of the major events of the series from the manga, which include cutting out, rearranging or altering key scenes. This has the negative effect of reducing any time that could be focused on how said events effect the characters, developing the events that lead to key points in the series from occurring or getting into dramatic scenes. The third is especially a notable one here as a few major characters in the series die due to Nar…

Inyuasha: Second Season Review -
To a man who completely watched every single Inuyasha episode known to man, I want to point out that this here is one of the most miraculous things ever.
Story - The story takes wherever the last story picked of. I found this to be much better than the 167 episodes the original one took place. The psychological impact of the story stunned me to no end, making me marathon this over and over again. Truly amazing. 10/10
Characters - Out of all the characters in this series, Kagome evolved the most. Not to say that the others stayed the same, but Kagome. She played the most significant role and completely carried the show. Unfortunately, the way Inuyasha changed was completely irrelevant in any standard and should not be mentioned again, overall best charac…

Story:
Inheriting the story from the original anime (Inuyasha), this story continues on the path of where it left off. At first, i felt the story might have been rushed, this is because of the slow pace of the first anime. However, after the third episode, I realized this was the best. The old anime took it's time and added a lot of unnecessary fillers, which made the show less appealing to most. However, a young kid I loved it, saw the charm in it. I watched every single episode, now at the age of 17, I re-watched it and went on to the one we have now. Inuyasha final act improves on what the original struggled with and has became a masterpiece! I couldn't be more satisfied with the it.
Art:
Also inheriting the amazing art from it's predecessor, Inuyasha final act has some of the best art…

InuYasha: Kanketsu-hen, or InuYasha: The Final Act, is the final segment of the show that has taken the anime world by storm in 2000. The first, long, season of InuYasha was incredible when it comes to storyline and character. Everything was engaging!...except the ending of it. Having such a long air-time and not have a proper ending to it was a real downer. InuYasha: Kanketsu-hen puts everything into place, and tears in some viewers' eyes ;)
Story (10) Definitely one of the more in-depth storylines in anime. The show takes you back in time, well it literally does each time Kagome goes through her family's well, to see peoples' pasts to see how everyone is connected to each other. The story picks up where the first season ended, Inuyasha and company are going after Naraku to end his evil…

Since Inuyasha was the first anime I watched as a child I may be bias but I think this really is an amazing anime. You become incredibly attached to the characters, and while there may have been some repetition of mindless fighting in the original series, I am glad to say this series has no filler episodes :)
The animation is very good, available in 1080p if you want, and the sound is very good too. It is not a very complex plot with too many twists but it is certainly enough to keep you attached and entertained.
Just a heads up for those who watched the English dub of the original series, Kagome's and Sesshomaru's voice actors were switched so you may get a bit irritated, I just decided to watch it in Japanese.
Anyways enjoy the series if you watch it, I'd really recommend it.

Indeed, this series became popular and it was great that the fans like me, was able see a closure after waiting for years. Inuyasha was one of those series that will leave you an impression which will make you still remember it even after so many years.
There’s a long review coming!
ABOUT THE STORY
The story itself was rich with actions, adventure, drama, and of course romance. It was unique in its own way with a story that transcended time. But there was these feelings which make you realize that it could’ve been much better. There were times that you felt bored with the episodes and just forwarded it or the worst, went to the next episode. Throughout the series, it felt like there was still something missing and I ended up wanting for more. It felt like there were still rooms for impr…

What a amazing and heart-warming ending to an outstanding anime! Everything about this 26-episode conclusion to the original Inuyasha series was brilliant. The story, the characters, the everything. And especially the romance. The romance topped all the romance in the rest of the series, and almost every episode will leave you feeling warm and fuzzy inside. Tears of joy were rolling down my face at the end. If you watched the original series, you won't be complete untill you watch this sequel as well.

Let me just start off by saying i love Inuyasha.
From start to finish it has been funny, exciting, romantic, heart racing, sweet, and very entertain to watch. I am so glad that for the last season of Inuyasha they did almost exactly like the manga. Inuyasha was the first anime i ever took seriously. There is just so much to love about this show, that you wish it will never end. But all good things must come to an end eventually.
Tears were brought to my eyes as i watched the last episode and was very happy with the way they ended. There were no loose ends what so ever.
The plot to this story was very unique and original which is one of the reasons that i liked it so much. You never knew what to expect from this and you could never predict what would happen next, well at least i couldn…

I usually don't write reviews, but I'm making a special exception for The Final Act.
One word description: INCREDIBLE! To me it felt like it was on an entirely different level than the first season. No fillers, much more emotion(I cried on a few episodes!), the art was greatly improved, a lot more character development with Sesshomaru(My favorite character), I could go on and on.
I just can't say enough how thoroughly impressed I was with this season! If you like Inuyasha, even just a little bit, you will not be disappointed with The Final Act. I will probably rewatch it again in a couple months.

I decided to write this review because I feel that reviews here haven't done much justice to this show. Which is strange, as the ranking and relative popularity of this show would suggest that a decent review be written about it.
To start off, I LOVE inuyasha. I loved the first show. I loved the characters and their interactions. I thought the music was great, and that the story was really special and addictive. The first 10 episodes or so were especially good. Then, after about 40 episodes, I realised Naraku wouldn’t die. And the show began to drag on and on. At the end, I had mixed feelings about the quality of the show, but it didn’t change the fact that I was really into the show, which hasn’t changed even now. Therefore, there will be inevitable comparisons with the first 167 episodes…

Inuyasha Kanketsu-hen is a continuation of the original series that was canceled.
The plot of this series was not all that great but the animation was awesome. The only reason why I watched the show was mainly for the characters.
Reason why I was attached to the characters was because, this was the very first anime I watched but unfortunately led me to watch the whole damn series.
If your a fan of Inuyasha then I don't think will be disappointed by the ending of the series.
The things I have to say were bad about the show was that the plot was not well written. It was so bad that the other main characters (Sango, Miroku, Shippo, Rin, etc) did basically nothing through out the whole series. They just watched Inuyasha and Sesshomaru fight their foes while commenting on everything they did.…

Okay....
I watched this season of InuYasha after getting bored by the previous pointless season six and got COMPLETELY surprised as this was NOTHING like I had expected!!!!!!!!
STORY: 9
It was REALLY good as their was minimal filler and thankfully there was much focus on the main plot. And if there was a bit of filler..... it was some entertaining one. The only thing was, everything was a bit rushed but still it was good.
ART: 9
The good quality art of the original was still there. Though there was a slight difference, the art looked quite fresh and crisp.
SOUND: 10
The OP and Endings were at par with the first series, which is saying something.
The ending themes were first class while the OP too was in sync with the story.
Thankfully, the seiyuu hadn't been changed and one still felt…

I have one word to say and that is: FINALLY!!!!! It has been close to 5 years and it was well worth the wait. I've been a dedicated Inuyasha fan since I was little and have watched all 169 episodes over and over not really satisfied with the ending. Until the adaption to the final ending of the manga series came out and man was it awesome. This series cleared up all the loose ends from the unsatisfying ending of the prequel.
____________________Spoiler____________________________________
And also finally Inuyasha and Kagome are together (SCREAMS!!!!!) I'm glad to be able to see the ending of a good series.

Inuyasha has been an exciting series of fighting, love, and conquering new powers. Rumiko Takahashi made an excellent series of Inuyasha and his fight against Naraku. Her drawings went along perfectly, the story was absolute, the characters' voices matched the prior character, the characters' outcome fitted perfectly to their image, and it was a series that I will continue to enjoy for the rest of my life. The anime didn't have everything the manga had, but the scenes did go in order as planned.
This review is dedicated to Rumiko Takahashi; thank you for making Inuyasha and bring the series into our lives. :)

Finally! That is what everybody should be thinking when they are watching InuYasha: Kanketsu-hen! It sets off where there are no fillers anymore, it's direct, and it tends to even every special part for each character in an episode. The last InuYasha episode in the last season made go like: "Wait...thats it???" I glad they had finished it just like the manga or that cliffhanger may be a way InuYasha had some of its fans. But, must it have been regained thanks to this season!
Story: 10 out of 10
Thank goodness to no filler episodes! They acutally go to more of the important parts of the story, unlike a demon in village and Inuyasha and the gang get rid of it. It shows more the characters part of view in each episode whether it's about him/her or not. What stands out the most to me was that…

OH- Inuyasha! Has ALWAYS been one of my favorites and Kanketsu-hen was by far the best season of Inuyasha! Throughout the regular series, there were lots of fillers and silly episodes that lacked "meat" however each episode of the final season of Inuyasha was filled with a moving plot-line that at times had me crying. The action in this season was amazing and it was nice how characters that were minor or were not that likable during the regular broadcast were brought to new light.
The art as always was clean and enjoyable. But the development of the characters was spectacular! I am so glad that the ending was the way it was. What I hoped for all along.
So glad I watched it and highly recommend to others as well!
