Tenseiga

6/27/06 // 08:46 pm

Help: Was it ever mentioned in Inuyasha that the Tenseiga can only be wielded by a full youkai? And if it was mentioned, do you happen to remember which manga chapter/volume it was covered in?

After some deliberation, I had decided to revive my Cycles of Destiny fanfic *gasp* from the dead even though it's been almost 4 years since I updated. And since I'm sorely behind in the series, I'm so not equipped to counter anyone's questions about certain aspects of the fic because...well, because I'm clueless. -_-;; So I'm on the process of revising and reposting the original 6 chapters...and this was one of the questions I got for my 2nd chapter:

I don't understand how he can use the sword of healing, I thought only a full youkai could, and that's why Inuyasha couldn't.

Anyone out there that's keeping up with Inuyasha- can you tell me if that's true?

My personal beliefs on the two swords in regards to their "barriers" have always been that it's not really blood/race specific...but rather an essence and the swords will then choose/accept its master accordingly. For example, the Tenseiga...didn't Toutousai always say that you must have compassion and the desire to save in order for the sword to accept its master? Same with the Tessaiga...I never really thought the barrier was about hanyou or full youkai blood, but rather about the will/desire/need to protect. If it's about blood, how would Inutaisho wield it- seeing that he's full youkai and all?

Note that I said my personal "beliefs"...that's because I had these beliefs long ago back when a whole lot wasn't yet mentioned about the swords, so they were more my theories than anything. But since I haven't kept up, these theories could've been shot to hell by Takahashi for all I know. :p Geh, I came back to this fic, telling myself that I would just write it according to how I had it planned without consideration to what's been covered later on...but I'm beginning to wonder if that's a good idea or not. T_T

Sesshoumaru's Mother

9/26/05 // 08:20 pm

Okay...help. >_> Is anyone on my FL still keeping up with Inuyasha? I've lost track on the manga some time ago so I really don't know what's been happening to the story (or the fandom) lately. (Yes, bad webmistress) So can someone tell me what is the deal with Sesshoumaru's mother coming from the moon? Where did that come from?! Yesterday, I got another email about it- which is about the 10th one these past few months. Normally, I get so many crap emails every single day about some weirdo "fact" about Sesshoumaru that I barely pay any attention to them. But this one seems persistent. It's making me wonder if it has an ounce of incredulous truth (in a cringing way). =_=

Here's a paste of the part about his mother:

"When i looked around.. i was surprised to find out that sesshomaru's mother remained mystery. I knew about sesshomaru's mother about a year ago..i'll attach a file of image of sesshomaru's mother. Her name is Luna and i am not sure if she is a demon. She is referred to more like.. godess. Anyways.. she is godess of the moon. Inuyasha's father met her when he was trying to find a good place to hide the sword of destruction (the sword that came out in the 3rd movie) Inuyasha's father long heard about the moon where it is far away from the Westen lands. However, when he found the entry to the moon a godess comes to him(sess's mother) and informs him that non of the living from the mortal realm could enter the place. Of course the godess refused to place such disastrous sword in her realm. I am not sure how they came to be.... but sess was born from her. There is rumor that the 5th movie will be based on the birth secrets of sess."

Eh. And just so you know, the picture she attached was a fairly poor fanart. :p I'm convinced that this whole thing came from a fanfiction or something. But I've been getting these types of emails a lot that I'm beginning to wonder if there's some truth to it. Kill me if it is.

Annoying site visitors...

9/6/05 // 08:39 pm

It's never been a big secret that I especially get annoyed with a lot of my Sesshoumaru shrine's visitors. But lately, it's like I have a personal PMS against them or something. So let's see...in the recent weeks, I've gotten these sorts of emails:

1. I need to give my Sesshoumaru site to them...because they can do so much better with it than me since I haven't been updating for a while now.

2. Complaints about me not re-opening the Sesshoumaru Fanfictions archive even though I've been taking donations for the last year.

3. Insisting that Sesshoumaru's mother is from the moon, that Sesshoumaru is exactly two thousand billions years old or whatever, that Sesshoumaru has a long lost sister, that Sesshoumaru definitely loves Kagura, that Sesshoumaru's ex-girlfriend was Sara, etc. etc. The list goes on.

4. Demanding that I put up more pictures and complaining that I have so little pictures (when I have a large gallery with hundreds of pictures as it is).

Really, let's forget about all the hotlinkers, theft, and retarded emails that I normally already deal with...but lately, I have these to add on to my annoyance. So now I feel the need to vent. First off, if they think they can do so much better than me with the site...then go ahead and make one from scratch. Demanding that I need to give the site to them is seriously just screwed up. That's almost an oxymoron of its own. And then the ongoing complaints about me not re-opening the Sesshoumaru Fanfictions archive...well freaking hells, as if I haven't already explained it enough that I was told by my host that it needed a dedicated server to run, which mind you is hell of expensive. And getting donations for the past year? I haven't gotten any donations at all...only complaints that it's down. So yes...I'm pissed about an accusation like that- as if I'm taking money and keeping it in my pocket or something.

Then there's the whole insisting a whole bunch of ridiculous stuff to be true and then accusing me of not having an accurate site with enough info because I didn't write that Sesshoumaru's ex-girlfriend was Sara. Why the hell would I put that in when it's NOT TRUE? Or saying that I was incorrect in saying that Sesshoumaru doesn't have a love interest because hell...they think Sesshoumaru is in love with Kagura. GAH! >_<
