Comment on Anyone have one or two anime that they watched and were surprised it wasn’t more popular?

inuyasha seems wierdly geared towards night audiences,. evangelion. its not as popular as bleach, naruto, onepiece, brotherhood/or og alchemist.(im guessing the latter 2 are too short of a series and the time between final season, or series is staggeringly long. rather than having season by season each year. inuyasha had a horrendous amount of time between the official last season to final act which showed signs it was clearly rushed for just one final season, like 4-5years, AOT level of ridiculousness.

Inuyasha was one of the most popular shows back when I was in middle school. Around when anime first started becoming more accessible in the US via Toonami and Adult Swim. I watched a little bit but didn’t stay up late enough to watch it continuously. I’ve been meaning to finish it.

the FINAL act was super rushed, basically they jammed like 50-100episodes into 25 to finish off the whole series, its still good, but they definitely couldved milked some of the stories more. spoilers, killed off hakudoshi so fast, as was kaguara, and then KIKYO. one of inuyasha new sword abilities is dragon scaled, he barely used through the final part.’
i assume you are aware of the “spinoff” its basically sesshoramu with rin. but fans thought it was an odd series because it seems too “groomy”, marrying and siring children with the person you took care of/companion through her childhood.
