Inu Yasha: Season 6 Box Set

I've been watching the Inu Yasha series since season one and continue to be a great fan of the show. The season six box set marks the near end of my collection since I've found it easier to buy the box sets rather than the individual dvd ones. This season revolves around Inu Yasha's group and their final trial of getting the final shard before Naraku does and since Naraku has become more stronger than ever the quest has become that more dangerous. And of course we can't forget Sesshomaru and his own little group and his own mysterious agenda. The box set does only have the episodes 127-146 so all us fans will have to wait until Viz finally releases the seventh box set hopefully early next year. As with the Inu yasha universe you have most of the episodes be very dramatic but there are humorous episodes and scenes that will also make them light-hearted similar a little to series like Bleach and Naruto. The video is clear and sharp like the other season box sets and the audio is great again the voice cast for both the Japanese/English cast did a incredible job for their characters. So until the 7th set comes out I say to all fans while this x-mas price sale is still good get this set while you can because after the sale is over I know many people will be kicking themselves for waiting I know I have with previous sales like this and waiting to long and regretted it afterwords...

I got this as a gift for my teenage sister who is very much into Anime! She loves Inuyasha and really enjoyed watching this set. I would highly recommend it.

The Inuyasha Sixth Season Box Set includes four DVDs, which contain twenty of the episodes from the sixth season of the anime. The first three discs contain five episodes, and the fourth disc includes five episodes and the special features.

Disc four contains three special features. The first feature is a "Textless Opening," which is essentially the opening that appears at the beginning of each episode, but this version doesn't have the text that covers the pictures. The second feature is a "Textless Ending," which is the ending credits without the text covering the pictures. I was very surprised and pleased by the new ending credits song that appears in the sixth season. The song was much more electronic-based than the other themes (which have been more rock-based).

The third special feature in the set is labeled as, "Inuyasha Special Footage - Down the Well: Inside the Feudal Fairytale." This feature runs for almost eight minutes, and utilizes the English dub actors, as well as the English dub versions of the Inuyasha footage. Over the course of the piece, the characters of Myoga and Totosai are giving some explanations about Japan's feudal era. They talk about what the feudal era was like, they explain what yokai are, and also talk about the religious figures of the time (humans who have spiritual powers). Unfortunately, it felt more like the voice actors were reading straight out of Wikipedia entries, rather than the piece being written to truly educate the viewer. On the other sets, the "Inuyasha Special Footage" was originally produced in Japan, and subtitled for the American DVD releases. Personally, I like the Japanese "Inuyasha Special Footage" pieces better than the one that appears on this set.

This box set of Inuyasha includes a combination of short story-arcs and stand alone episodes. However, very few episodes in the set felt like filler material. It felt like almost all of the episodes were important for progressing the story.

If you're a fan of Inuyasha and want to have all of the episodes on DVD, then you need to acquire this set.
