During their quest in the feudal era to recover the shards of the miraculous Shikon Jewel, Inuyasha, Kagome Higurashi, and their friends become the target of Menoumaru Hyouga—a demon awakened by one of the Shikon fragments, now in pursuit of Inuyasha's heirloom sword Tessaiga. Following a clash between the fathers of Inuyasha and Menoumaru, the weapon is the only means to restore Menoumaru his rightful family heritage. However, upon ambushing Inuyasha, Menoumaru discovers that Tessaiga's owner alone can wield it. Determined to achieve his objective regardless, he kidnaps Kagome to force Inuyasha to use his blade and release the sealed powers of the Hyouga clan. With their dependable companions' assistance, Inuyasha and Kagome oppose Menoumaru, unaware that his sinister intentions and alarming potential will endanger not only their world but also its distant future.

wow, i can't believe that no other reviews have been written about this movie. well, as an inuyasha fan i shall take it upon myself to write one :D the first inuyasha movie, affections touching across time, quite the piece of work it is. the story line to it had the same sort of feeling that any of the other inuyasha movies had and the show as well. filled with fighting, jokes, romance, and the characters that only this series can provide. having their original voice actors and music that can be linked to that of the show, it wins in the department of having that"inuyasha" feel to it. it doesn't quite fit in the time sequence of the show, it sort of serves as a side story. i wouldn't recommend this if you haven't seen any of the show or at least read the manga because then it wouldn't make sense. though it is the first movie out of four, it relies on the viewer having some knowledge of the inuyasha world but for a fan, it's great to see. the characters are still just how they always were in the show, lovable and memorable in my point of view. the only thing i have to complain about in this movie is the art. the art for inuyasha in the anime was beautiful, it wasn't flashy or quite as modern but i fell in love with it. the art is different in this movie from the original though at times it looked like it tried to revert. it IS different but it doesn't get in the way too much though i would have liked to see the original beauty. all and all as an inuyasha fan, i found it to be an enjoyable movie that i would most definitely watch over again :D
I loved this movie, I've watched them all and when it comes to going back to seeing the movies again this one I watch and re-watch again and again. It is second to none in the four movies that have been released. The only other movie that ties it for first is the third movie (Swords of An Honorable Ruler). The plot is absolutely astounding and the villain continues to make me cringe every time I see him lift up a leaf to his lips. He's a villainous demon I just love to hate.
This is my first review so bear with me. I love the inuyasha series, however i did not like this movie too much. Story- I can understand what the produces were trying to do, but the movie didn't make alot of sense. I think it was because it didn't flow that well. It was like one minute kagome was all possesed and the next minute she passed out, out of nowhere. I was starting to loseinterest, so i skipped some of it because it was getting boring. Art- The art in this movie was pretty horrble. I guess it's because im used to the art in the inuyasha series, that it looked a little weird to me. For example- In the inuyasha series sesshomaru's face is not that long. In this movie however,sesshomaru's face looke really long and narrow. And his ears in this movie were pointier. Im not sure if it was just me but Kagome's eyes looked bigger and browner than usual. I guess I expected the art to be better since this movie came out after the Inuyasha series started. As usual, the sound & characters were as good as always. The characters still kept their distinct personalities. I did enjoy the movie if you took away the agravating art and the boring & unflowing parts. Overall, i liked the movie even though it could of been produced better.
This was a movie for people who were already fans of Inuyasha. It had all of the expected elements, the familiar music, and of course, a unique-looking villain. There isn't much to say about it. If you're a fan of Inuyasha, check it out, it has more of what you know you enjoy. If not, if might be awkward. The only thing of note was the villain's design. Some sort of giant moth creature. I couldn't even really figure out exactly what it was. It plays to the strengths of the show in general: unique character designs, especially for the demons. It's basically another Inuyasha episodewith a longer running time. As said before, worth it for fans, not so much for people unfamiliar with the series.
This is my absolute favorite Inuyasha movie out of the 4 movies! The art style is a bit different than the anime, but it follows more closely to the style in the manga. The animators took care in animating the scenes so that they're not simple, but exhibit emotion. It's definitely a breath of fresh air compared to the anime (no offense), since it has nicer and deeper aesthetics. The music was my favorite in this movie as well; recommend listening to the OST. The voice acting for Kikyo was done so well, it was delivered very well. Kagome as well. (You'll see what Imean when you watch it). The anime tends to gloss over emotional scenes that may contain development, which I don't blame considering there aren't many words said between Inuyasha and Kagome in the manga to show how much they mean to each other. However, in the movie, it took care in executing their scenes when needed, which produced great results. I actually cried because of the softness and the way it was depicted. The animation was very pretty as well and delicate. Definitely a movie you can watch with non-Inuyasha watchers. Overall, to describe the movie in one word: "precious".
The movie wasn't SPECTACULAR!, but I wouldn't dare say it was bad. It's Inuyasha. So the movies are made quite true to form as you would see it on television. It's created like a made for tv movie so the visuals are spectacular for something that just came out of season 1. The cast who does the voices for all of the characters served their roles exceptionally well and the music was boisterous and exciteable, as it is in the show. One of my issues with the movie is itspacing. The events leading up to the end battle felt choppy and inconsistent. But that's probably because we have an hour and half to kill instead of the usual 22 minutes. We needed Kirara to be possessed by the two women so we could see major fights happening later on. I loved to see Kirara step out to be more of a power player in this movie than the usual fighting sidekick that she's usually portrayed as in the show. We get to see the same thing with Sango and Miroku. Usually sentenced to being semi-background characters forced to deal with squabbling teammates and Kagome threatening to go back to her own world every other episode. (Seriously girl, it gets old) they typically don't have much substance to work with within 22 minutes. But here we see them champion without Inuyasha to save the day with his sword or Kagome with her arrows. We see Miroku's dexterity with his staff and powers and Sango utilize her Hiraikotsu with much more precision and deft than she normally allows. Sango is my favorite character in the series so if you're a fan of Sango as well, this movie will shine her in a very positive light. Without mentioning any spoilers our main protagonists, Inuyasha and Kagome, begin to create the infamous meme of yearning for one another by constantly yelling each other's names into the universe. The title "Affections Touching Across Time" really hits home as they do the infamous: "INUYASHAAAAAA!!" "KAGOMEEEEE!!" bit nearly the whole way through. It's to ease you into, literally, into the rest of the series, lol. The storyline itself was really intriguing. It's good to know that other powerful demons exist besides Naruku, Inuyasha and Sesshomaru's father, and Ryukotse. The antagonist originates from what the characters call, "The Continent", which, I assume, is probably the continent of Asia. Sometimes we ask ourselves which anime world we wouldn't like to go to and most people think of Attack on Titan or some grizzly dystopian future. But I certainly wouldn't want to be caught wandering around Japan in the feudal era as a human. I'd hate to always be in fear of having my soul stolen or to become prey to a high or low-level demon. The antagonist in this film, for example, gets most of his regenerative powers from thousands upon thousands of innocent souls; from low level creatures to innocent villagers in the nearest town. Speaking of souls, one element that I could have absolutely done without is the presence of Kikyo. I didn't see a reason for her involvement in the story, especially since the antagonist's beef was literally with Inuyasha. He had arisen and the first thing on his mind was the act of revenge. The same with Sesshomaru. Although, Inuyasha and Sessomaru share the same father, the antagonist has a vendetta with the one who holds the Tetsusaiga. Like I said, it wasn't a BAD movie, per se. But the pacing of the story, unusable characters, and LOTS of romantic fluff in grave moments of despair and urgency don't make a movie with a solid foundation. It's just something you watch so you can movie onto the next series of episodes.
This is the first Inu Yasha movie, taking place after the hero has learned the counterattack technique. The scenario takes advantage of the best hooks of the show, such as the romance amongst the heroes and the tragedy of their pasts. It is also offers an interesting “what if” scenario where Inu Yasha is sealed on the tree again and Kagome is trapped on the present. Effectively it is a summary of whatever has happened so far, as well as a showdown of all that befalling on them at the same time. Heck, even the villains are very threatening, as they can manipulate the techniquesof their enemies for their own benefit. Plus they are supposed to be amongst the most powerful of all demons, as not even Inu Yasha’s father was able to defeat them. The above premise, combined with far better production values than the tv series are enough to create a very interesting filler mission. Sadly, just like the core story the movie suffers from the usual cop-out resolutions. No matter how tragic a situation seems to be, the power of love will be proven triumphant in the end, breaking the evil spell that brainwashes you to be a mindless slave and strands you in a different time. And no matter how powerful a villain is supposed to be, the hero’s magic sword will always be able to reflect back his attacks, empowered further with its own wind scar technique. So it is quite lame to see how all the villains were eventually beaten by their own powers, despite their specialty literally being counterattacking. Thus the movie plays out like a fairy tale of the cheesiest kind and despite the grave situations in it, it is still reusing the same tired recycled stuff we were already getting in the tv series. And guess what, most of what you see here is actually what happens in the canon finale as well. That alone proves how narrowed its possible developments had become. But hey, the movie was made to keep the fans of the show happy by giving them what they already knew and expected, and to hook newer viewers by throwing all the cool stuff the show has. Very successful entertaining-wise but hardly tries to offer something you won’t get by watching the main series.
*Spoiler warning!* This movie was spectacular! To start, the plot of the movie was very similar to the story of the show. It paced a little quicker then the normal fights in the anime, which I for one did actually like quite a bit. The movie let us see some characters we haven't seen much of lately, (Rin, Kikyo, etc.) which I liked! The art was way better then the anime. It was more polished and detailed. The CGI was good for the year the movie came out, but compared to things now a days it's not the best. Overall, art was amazing. Personalities are thesame as the show, but I did get pretty annoyed with Kikyo when she was being rude to Kagome.. I will say, at some points I got bored of the movie, and sometimes the CGi was total trash, even for the year it was released. But nonetheless, it was honestly pretty amazing! I can't wait to watch the next one, and hope it's even better!. 8/10 for me..! :3 (I'm watching Yashahime and Inuyasha side by side, so I'm not done with Inuyasha yet..)
