The greatest movie ever made..!

A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."

The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

Like a lot of anime, if it gets popular it gets translated to the big screen for the die hard and casual fans of the series. "Inuyasha: Affections Touching Across Time" is no exception because of the anime's cult status popularity worldwide.200 years ago a Chinese moth yokai named Hyoga invaded Japan but Inuyasha's father battled Hyoga and defeated him sealing him away in a magical prison known as the Tree of Ages. Years later when the Shikon no Tama(Jewel of Four Souls) shatters, a fragment finds its way into a tree and frees Hyoga's son Menōmaru who wishes to take vengeance for his father against Inuyasha and become the next Lord Hyoga.The story is like a stand alone Inuyasha episode only its longer and has a better budget and animation which mixes CG with traditional animation. Only the CG hasn't aged well and clashes with the regular animation very badly which thankfully happens in very few places so it isn't that distracting. Everything that fans of the series including myself love is all here. The humor, the romance, the epic action is all here. The movie also touches upon the relationship between Inuyasha and Kagome in a couple of very touching scenes with great animation and emotional music. The film comes with either the original Japanese dub or the English dub. It doesn't matter either or since both are very good although the English version has sometimes bad voice acting especially near the end where the main villain sounds really bad in his final form.Its a good "Inuyasha" flick and its worth your time especially if you are a fan of the series.

The Shikon jewel, a stone that grants great powers to demons has been shattered. A demon named Menomaru finds a shard, and uses it to avenge against Inuyasha's dad that imprisoned Menomaru's dad. The heroes must fight Menomaru as well as their own powers and fears to conquer this latest menace to the search for the Shikon jewel shards.Length: 100 minutesRating: 5 starsFor all ages (general) 2344325446777777777 7777 7777 777777777 7777777777 77 7777 77777 777 777 7777 777777777777777 777777 77777777777777 777777777 7777 777 7;87,;jhn mhhbknfdv hfdvf doigfh vbyfigj

Kagome Higurashi is like any other 15 year old student. Like any other, until she discovers that she can travel through time via the Bone Eater's well...Not unlike the series, Toki Wo Koeru Omoi takes place in Feudal Japan with a bit of Present day mixed in. Unlike the series, the first of currently three movies strays from the Naraku plot and into another enemy.Enter Menomaru. A demon who's father, Hyoga, was sealed beneath the Tree of Ages by Inu-yasha's father 200 years past. He fools Inu-yasha into attacking the claw which sealed away Hyoga's power, thus destroying it and releasing Hyoga's power. His power takes the form of a great orb. Menomaru allows himself to be engulfed into it, thus absorbing the power of his father.Collecting the souls of every living thing, Menomaru's power grows to immense size and soon, he becomes reborn with near limitless power as the New Hyoga.(Side note: During all this, Sango and Mirkou are fighting battles against Menomaru's servants, Ruri and Hari, who both are slain)While this passes, Kikyo sends Kagome to her own time, as she was not meant to be there. Kagome and Inu-yasha somehow manage to contact each other, although 500 years apart. Inu-yasha gets Kagome to come back to Feudal Japan.With the help of Kagome's arrow, Inu-yasha's Backlash Wave hits Hyoga, killing him and earning them a Shikon shard.Overall, this is very much like what happens in the series, but with larger detail. One detail I didn't enjoy was the 3D effect on the Tree of Ages. It takes away from the overall picture. But, in a grand total, I give this movie a 9.5/10(1/2 point for 3D)

Inuyasha is an action fantasy tale written by the famous writer, Takahashi Rumiko, who has previous world's popular titles like Ranma1/2 and Urusei Yatsura. The Inuyasha TV anime came out in 2000 as a production of an acclaimed company, "Sunrise". The TV anime's got high-ratings and also won some awards. Following the success of the TV series, the first movie, "Inuyasha - Toki O Koeru Omoi" was released in Japan in December 2001.Memoumaru, the movie-only character, was a decendant of one great foreign demon that invaded Japan 200 years ago. His anchester's power was sealed by Inuyasha's father. With the help of a piece of Shikon no Tama (that Kagome accidently broke), Memoumaru returned his life. He wanted Inuyasha's sword "Tessaiga" to break the sealed power so he could have an absolute power. And that's how it all began...The story plays around the weakest points of the main characters; Kagome who always felt sad that Inuyasha was still in love with Kikyou and Inuyasha who kept on having a nightmare about how his beloved woman killed him. The overall movie is not much of a new plot since the climax is similar to Takahashi's manga works. But that doesn't mean it's not a good movie.Toki O Koeu Omoi is actually a high-qualitied animation with the carefully-done scenery (forest, trees, & sky), exciting action scene and nice background music that fits the story perfectly. I especially admire the 'make-up theme' which is used everytime Inuyasha tries to make up with Kagome. The movie also uses a 3D technique on the growing-up forest which became more "living", (nicely done!).The outstanding scene is when Kagome tried hard to refuse the spell of Menoumaru who tried to make her kill Inuyasha. You can actually feel her pain! Other must-see scenes are those romantic installments 'cause this is the first time you will ever hear Inuyasha confess his feeling toward Kagome!!Though not the best Inuyasha, but there're still a lot that Inuyasha's die-hard fans shouldn't miss!
