Well, looks like a huge, hulking demon almost akin to Goshinki was terrorizing Tokyo. Never fear, dear citizens, Inuyasha, Ginta, Ayame, and Shunran are here to do the job, and, boy, did they give it a mega beating with their bare hands and claws, hence the bloodstains. That just shows you how strong this four-person team is, not only in terms of physical abilities but also in terms of relationships. One can even imagine their kids cheering for their parents akin to lines like these. Kenta and Keita: Go, Mom, Dad, Auntie Shunran, and Uncle Ginta! You showed that demon who’s boss! Plus, we wanna fight demons just like you! Minoru and Manabu: All right, Mom and Dad! You, Uncle Inuyasha, and Auntie Ayame were so awesome today! I also hope that we, Kenta, and Keita can form a demon fighting team of our own too, that would be great! Kaito, Momoko, and Maya: Oh, yeah! Sakura, Kokoro, and Sentaro: Woohoo! You did it, Mom, Dad, Uncle Inuyasha, and Auntie Ayame! So, once again, Tokyo is saved! Thanks to Inuyasha, Ginta, Ayame, and Shunran also known as The Gallant Guardians! Inuyasha, Ginta, Ayame, and Shunran from Inuyasha belong to Rumiko Takahashi and Sunrise.

Happy Pentecostal Sunday, everybody. Here’s another piece of Inuyasha fanart consisting of Ginta, Shunran, and their offspring. From left to right we have: Ginta, aged 34, second Alpha Male of the Northern Yoro tribe Shunran, aged 31, member of the Panther Devas and Ginta’s sweet, beloved wife Minoru, aged 15, the eldest son and first child Manabu, aged 14, the younger son and second child Sakura, aged 13, the elder daughter and third child Kokoro, aged 12, the younger daughter and fourth child Sentaro, aged 10, the youngest son and fifth child My little story behind Ginta and Shunran being together goes something like this. When Ginta, Hakkaku, and Kouga first met Shunran and the rest of the Panther Devas, it was not a most promising start, as they got themselves into skirmishes in courtesy of their insurmountable power. However, Ginta took notice of one of the Panther Devas who specialized in creating cherry blossom-induced mirages and whose notable trait was her giggling, Shunran. At first, her giggling and her mischievousness were a slight nuisance, but after seeing what she can do as a fighter, Ginta was rather interested. One day, when Shunran, Karan, Shuran, and Toran were about to head home, Ginta called Shunran’s name and at first, he was hesitant to speak up. That was until Shunran smiled at him and told him that he was a funny person and would like to get to know more about him. With this remark, Ginta blushed but plucked up the courage to ask her on a friendly date by the lake. She reciprocated the offer and on the very next day, they finally told each other how they felt. Ginta opened up to tell Shunran how much of an amazing fighter she was, how nice her cherry blossoms smell, and how much of a fun-loving person she was, and Shunran proceeded to tell Ginta how much of a hilarious gentleman he was, how kind and considerate he was when they were talking to each other. They looked at each other in the eyes and realized who they were truly looking for, as if though it were love at first sight. By the time they consummated their feelings they even encountered Inuyasha and Ayame who in turn were in a relationship. Inuyasha and Ayame remarked that Ginta and Shunran make an adorable couple. Moreover, they decided to become a four-person team, defending Japan against different demons and monsters using their courage, strength, and sturdy teamwork to get the job done. As Inuyasha, Ginta, Ayame, and Shunran became closer as friends, Ginta’s and Shunran’s relationship blossomed even more to the point where Ginta proposed to her. This made Shunran excited and she could not wait to break the news to her siblings. Shunran hurried back to Toran, Shuran, and Karan and finally spilled the beans about her undying love for Ginta. Her older siblings were initially hesitant. However, they wanted what was best for their sister and wanted to see her happy. Moreover, Karan decided to give the final word and said yes to the relationship, thus having Shunran gleefully embrace all three of her older siblings. Ginta did the same when he told Kouga and Hakkaku about his prospects of marrying Shunran. In spite of Kouga being unsure about Ginta being with Shunran, Hakkaku, being the best friend that he was, happily gave his consent and wrapped him in an embrace. Kouga also gave his consent, so long as Ginta does not make the same mistake he did with Kagome and Ayame by being a two-timer. A few months after Inuyasha’s and Ayame’s marriage, Ginta and Shunran were happily wed and decided to stay with Inuyasha and Ayame as a unit, thus making Inuyasha akin to an older brother to Ginta and Ayame akin to an older sister to Shunran. With every battle, they did by day, Ginta and Shunran made love to each other by night. Shunran then broke the news that she was pregnant and nine months later, she gave birth to a boy, with tears of joy flowing down her eyes. Ginta was also happy and surprised that he was a father and has made a vow to be forever faithful to his family. With four more children to add to this family, Ginta and Shunran ensured a positive, loving, and optimistic home life, especially for their children, and it was going to stay that way. Now that that is out of the way, let’s talk about the children. As the eldest, Minoru has the responsibility of looking after his younger siblings and leading by example. He has inherited his father’s happy-go-lucky, kind, and caring nature but is also prone to being impulsive and some bouts of anger. He abhors it when anyone tries to hurt not only him but also his parents, his siblings, and his friends, as he will unleash Hell thanks to his super strength and lightning speed, thus making him a competent fighter. He is especially close to his father, as he looks to him because of his good humor and capabilities as a fighter. He also loves his mother’s company, as she is strong-willed and ensures that her dear Minoru does not get into any trouble. He is also close to his siblings, but he is more fond of his sisters Sakura and Kokoro for being great listeners and helping him get in touch with his feminine side, especially when it comes to talking to girls. Manabu is the kind, caring, emphatic, sweet, and soft-spoken second son and he does get along superbly with Minoru. He likes to spar with Minoru and their father every morning and he also loves to go by the lake for a swim with either his siblings, his friends, or with the whole family. He is especially helpful to Minoru whenever he is in a sticky situation and they have a super strong brotherly bond. In terms of his relationship with his youngest brother, Sentaro, he enjoys playing…
Favorite duet from one of my most favorite French operas aside, here are my most beloved Inuyasha OTPs, Inuyasha/Ayame and Ginta/Shunran, having a really romantic moment in a moonlit flower field. I swear, I enjoy shipping the pants off of Inuyasha and Ayame and Ginta and Shunran like there’s no tomorrow, they are truly meant for each other! I will admit that I am not a fan of drawing kissing scenes, given how difficult they can be to illustrate. However, for what this was worth, I have to say that the experience I had doing this was kind of worthwhile especially with my favorite Inuyasha OTPs of all time. Inuyasha, Ginta, Ayame, and Shunran from Inuyasha belong to Rumiko Takahashi.
It’s time for Inuyasha, Ginta, Ayame, and Shunran to go wild, completely beast mode, more specifically full yokai mode, and roar their guts out! They are sure to give any demon, monster, and/or villain a good thrashing and a good fright. By the way, these guys don’t need spears or bows and arrows to do the job like any jungle warrior could. That’s why they have their fists to deliver a barrage of blows, feet to deliver lightning kicks, and claws to tear through any tough material. I definitely found Inuyasha’s full yokai form to be a force to be reckoned with, as he does bear a sense of power, authority, and animalistic ferocity. However, I have always wondered how Ginta, Ayame, and Shunran would look like if they tapped into their yokai form. Well, this is what I came up with. I gave Ginta flashing silver eyes, Ayame flashing teal eyes with crimson irises, and Shunran bright yellow eyes with golden irises, thus being respectively reminiscent of a wolf and a panther. I must say, this was a great and awesome pleasure to see these four go feral and tap into their beastly capabilities. One can tell that Inuyasha, Ginta, Ayame, and Shunran would be a lot more formidable than they already are. Thanks for having a gander at this piece of fan art, and have a lovely, sunny day. Take care. Inuyasha, Ginta, Ayame, and Shunran from Inuyasha belong to Rumiko Takahashi.
Inuyasha, Ginta, Ayame, and Shunran are here to show you why you should never mess with them. And given how battle-ready they are, I think you might want to retreat. This was definitely fun in terms of what ideas I came up with the shirt logos for Inuyasha, Ginta, Ayame, and Shunran. Inuyasha is obviously the fearless leader of this pack. Ginta is the handsome pretty boy who can also open up a can of whoop-ass, as he is an example of beware the nice ones. Ayame is a brawling beauty. Finally, Shunran is the energetic cute girl who is living proof that rose as fair, sweet, and lovely as she can have sharp thorns. Given the clothes they have, especially Ginta’s camouflage pants, I also decided to transport them into our century complete with a graffiti-covered concrete wall. So, I hope you all enjoy this piece of fan art and I wish you all a nice, sunny day. Inuyasha, Ginta, Ayame, and Shunran belong to Rumiko Takahashi.
What happens when you combine two strong, muscular, studly dude bros with two gorgeous, fiery, fierce redhead ladies? Why you get a diverse ragtag quartet of my four favorite fighters from Rumiko Takahashi’s Inuyasha who can kick all types of ass. From left to right we have Inuyasha, Ginta, Ayame, and Shunran and their current respective ages are 35, 34, 32, and 31. As you can tell, they are having a fierce moment where they are ready to take on any opponent who dares to cross their path. I have always wondered how well these four would work together, as I do believe that Inuyasha truly deserves better and more emphatic comrades. In my mind, there would be healthier and more positive energy, more interesting dynamics bouncing about this quartet, more empathy, more moments where all four can have a laugh and chill, and less stupid soap opera antics. Plus, I have always envisioned Inuyasha to be the large-and-in-charge leader of the group, Ginta to be Inuyasha’s fun-loving and comedic foil complete with having moments where they are playfighting, Ayame to be the second-in-command speed fighter and Inuyasha’s wife, and Shunran to be the cute, feisty, jovial Genki girl and Ginta’s wife. Being the overall eldest of this group, Inuyasha is the leader and serves as the main muscle. His authority would certainly be unquestioned, in spite of moments of rashness and being prone to anger. At least he has the good company of his best friend, Ginta, his girlfriend and eventual wife, Ayame, and his close friend who is almost like a little sister to him, Shunran, who always remind him that he is never alone and he can trust them. His super strength is reliable when knocking opponents down and even helping his loved ones out of a sticky situation with his earth-shattering punches, lightning kicks, sharp claws, and, of course, his muscles. Ginta is almost like a younger brother to Inuyasha, as they are equal in strength and is just as jacked as him. He complements Inuyasha being the happy-go-lucky, fun-loving, and more laid-back comedic foil to Inuyasha’s seriousness and driven attitude. Ginta would be the one to joke around with Inuyasha and he would usually be the receiving end of his camel clutches, noogies, and full nelsons. However, when they get serious with sparring or fighting enemies, they certainly would be as determined and focused as possible. Moreover, Ginta would be the one to break the ice from Inuyasha, thus making him drop his defenses and make him feel happier and more comfortable with himself. In terms of abilities, while Inuyasha’s super strength makes him stand out, Ginta has super strength and lightning speed, which he uses to his advantage. Ayame needs no introduction as a tough, rough, kickass heroine. As teenagers, she and Inuyasha would start off as just friends, yet eventually, find out that they have more in common than they think. After dating each other for quite some time, they finally realize they are meant for each other, get hitched, and start a family with Ginta and Shunran being their children’s godparents. She would usually be the one to calm Inuyasha down when he gets upset, troubled or jumpy, thus serving as the second-in-command in this group. As the second-in-command, she would ensure logic to be present in every attack she and her comrades make to an enemy. She is not only super fast but incredibly strong and agile using her backflips, somersaults, lightning punches, and flying kicks to her advantage. Aside from having a healthy synergy of a relationship with Inuyasha, she has a lovely, brotherly bond with Ginta and a strong sisterly bond with Shunran. Shunran would serve as the light, laughter, love, and source of optimism and encouragement in the group and she’s also the youngest. She’s also the artistic and creative one of this group, as she loves to make cherry blossom mirages in order to either distract her enemies or calm her groupmates down after a long day. Aside from using her cherry blossom mirages, I envision her doing more hand-to-hand combat akin to capoeira, wushu, kung fu, and mixed martial arts. She has a lot of sweet, lovey-dovey moments with Ginta and they absolutely enjoy their moments of intimacy and solemnity. Moreover, she enjoys having Inuyasha around, as if he were almost like the big, strong, stoic older brother to her flighty, funny, fresh-faced younger sister, and she considers Ayame to be her ultimate gal pal and the awesome, cool big sister she wished she had, which is in no offense to her three older biological siblings, Toran, Shuran, and Karan. She and Ayame would not only enjoy sparring with each other, thus perfecting their punches and kicks, but also practicing meditation, going to the woods, racing with each other to see who’s speedier, and having a lot of girl talk. So, that’s how I see Inuyasha’s, Ginta’s, Ayame’s, and Shunran’s relationship with each other. It’s one not only based on fighting together as one unit but also on empathy, ensuring a healthy synergy with each other, trust, and making sure that their bond remains indestructible even after marriage and having children. I’m sure you either agree or have different opinions so, I would love to hear from you. Thanks for taking a gander at this piece of fanart and for reading this post. Enjoy the summer. Inuyasha, Ginta, Ayame, and Shunran from Inuyasha belong to Rumiko Takahashi.
Inuyasha: All right, boys, you ready? Kenta: You bet, dad! Keita: Yeah. (Ayame, Kaito, Momoko, and Maya come home to their cave from hunting, as they are carrying a wild boar, a fat doe, and a rabbit they have just hunted down to prepare for a Mother’s Day feast. Just as they are about to set down the food, Inuyasha, Kenta, and Keita come out from their hiding spot flexing their biceps for them to witness.) Inuyasha (to Ayame in a suave manner): Good evening, honey. Kenta (to Kaito): ‘Sup, bro. Keita (to Momoko and Maya): Yo, little sisters. Inuyasha, Kenta, and Keita: Happy Mother’s Day! Ayame: Oh. Um…Happy Mother’s Day to you, too, love and boys. (Inuyasha, Kenta, and Keita break out of their posedown routine and give Ayame, Kaito, Momoko, and Maya a firm hug.) Inuyasha: So, how was your hunting trip? Momoko: It was great, daddy! Maya: Mommy taught us how to hunt for boars and other animals and we caught some. Kaito: Tonight, we are going to have wild boar, doe meat, and rabbit. Inuyasha: Shall I help with the preparation, babe? (He gives Ayame a sneaky grin complete with mischievous raising eyebrows and a bit of pec flexing.) Ayame (chuckles): Sure thing, honeybun. (She gives Inuyasha a kiss on the lips.) Kenta and Keita: We can help with setting the table. Kaito: And I’ll help you gather some firewood to cook the meat. Inuyasha and Ayame: Sure thing, boys. Maya: Oh boy! This is going to be such an awesome feast. Momoko: It surely will. This one goes to all of the mothers out there. For your viewing pleasure, here are Inuyasha, aged 35, and his two favorite eldest sons, Kenta on the left and Keita on the right both aged 16, having a posedown for all the ladies to see, especially if those ladies happen to be his awesome wife, Ayame, and his lovely daughters, Momoko and Maya. Let’s also not forget about their other dearest son, Kaito, who is in utter awe of their muscular magnificence and also aspires to be as strong as his father and big brothers. Their muscles are surely a sight to behold, especially when one has a father like Inuyasha who serves as his family’s big kahuna of a patriarch. From ensuring rigorous physical training to making sure that his children live and eat right, he expects nothing but the best from his family, especially with a supportive wife like Ayame who is just as strong as him. The same thing can be said about the eldest boys, Kenta and Keita. These wonder twins are lucky to have a buff warrior dad like Inuyasha, as they look up to him unconditionally. From all the wrestling matches to the posedowns to the days and hours of training to having other combat sports in their regimens like kickboxing and Pankration to the roaring matches to some quieter moments where they enjoy each others’ company in places like a serene lake, these three have the strongest bond and the twins take a lot after their dear old man in personality and in physical capabilities. Well, I hope you enjoyed this and once again, Happy Mother’s Day. Inuyasha belongs to Rumiko Takahashi. Kenta and Keita belong to me.
Happy Mother’s Day everybody, especially to all of the moms, aunties, grannies, and awesome female role models out there. In honor of this very special day, here is my gift. A piece of Inuyasha fanart consisting of my OTP for life, Inuyasha and Ayame, along with their offspring. So, here they are from left to right. Inuyasha, aged 35, the Alpha Male of the Northern Yoro Tribe Ayame, aged 32, his dearest and most loving wife Kenta and Keita, aged 16, the eldest twin sons Kaito, aged 15, the younger son and third child Momoko, aged 14, the elder daughter and fourth child Maya, aged 12, the youngest daughter My little story behind this is that Inuyasha has moved on from Kikyo and has grown fed-up with Kagome’s constant nagging and scolding that he finally had the guts to leave her. Meanwhile, Ayame has also grown exasperated with Kouga constantly chasing after Kagome. As the two met one day in the forest complete with a lot of baggage in their systems, Inuyasha and Ayame initially vent out their frustrations towards each other. So much so, that a fistfight occurred between the two. After their bout, Inuyasha and Ayame complimented each others’ strength and combat prowess and have decided to hit it off with her introducing her grandfather to her new beau. Her grandfather was not at all convinced at first and initiated a challenge for Inuyasha to fight against an invading demon. Come the day of the challenge and a huge, hulking, horned demon came roaring. Because of Inuyasha’s unparalleled strength, he was able to incapacitate the demon with his bare hands and claws, thus killing it. The Northern Yoro Tribe immediately welcomed Inuyasha as their own and he won Ayame’s hand in marriage. For that, a magnificent feast was held for the newlyweds. After their marriage, Ayame desired to have children of her own. For that, Inuyasha and Ayame would have nights of passion after every battle they fought. Nine months passed, and Ayame gave birth to twins Kenta and Keita. Moreover, they had children one after the other all thanks to Inuyasha’s and Ayame’s exciting nights of passion. Now with five children, Inuyasha and Ayame could not be any happier. In spite of all the ills and challenges, they know that they have each other as a family. Now that the backstory is out of the way, let’s briefly talk about the children. As the eldest twin children, Kenta and Keita have a responsibility to uphold as the heirs to the Northern Yoro Tribe. They have inherited their father’s brute strength, unwavering courage, and fierceness to the point where Inuyasha considers them his most favorite sons. Kenta and Keita have always looked up to Inuyasha as their role model and they have always aspired to be as strong as him. Growing up the twins have trained their bodies and minds to reach peak condition so that they can be able to fight alongside their father, mother, and siblings in battle. Every sunrise, Inuyasha would greet the twins by going to their bedroom and flexing his muscles, as they wake up to see their father in all of his battle-hardened glory and the twins would wake up, approach their father, and flex back. From there, a wrestling/boxing match would ensue between father and sons before and after breakfast and it would always culminate with Inuyasha, Kenta, and Keita having a laugh. In terms of distinguishing personalities, Kenta is the more large-and-in-charge, outgoing, macho twin while Keita is slightly kinder but still manages to be impulsive yet passionate. Due to their strong personalities, they would end up having skirmishes with each other and it would take the imposing presence of their parents for them to cease and desist. In spite of their skirmishes, they genuinely care for each other and have the strongest bond as twin brothers. Kaito is a gracious, emphatic, and kind-hearted young man. However, one should be careful not to provoke nor taunt him, as he will unleash his fury all thanks to his brute strength, lightning speed, and unrelenting reflexes. While his older brothers, Kenta and Keita, are usually about muscle, Kaito relies more on tact when it comes to being in battle. He inherits both his mother’s eyes and his father’s features, as well as his mother’s highly-strung nature when it comes to getting things done. He loves nature, cares for every creature he sees, and does not want harm to come into any forest, mountain or natural resource. He was taught by both his father and mother the importance of healing and has, therefore, become reliable in knowing which plants and herbs to use on wounds or illnesses. Even though he is close to his father, he is much closer to his mother, as he finds her firm yet nurturing, soothing and kind. He does enjoy his older brothers’ company but he finds his younger sisters, Momoko and Maya, to be more approachable, thus being in touch with his feminine, sensitive side. Momoko is an independent, free-spirited, tough young girl who enjoys sparring and does not let her inhibitions hold her back. She’s extremely close to her oldest twin brothers, even though she does tend to find their machismo rather annoying. Whenever Kenta and Keita playfully annoy her, she would always have Kaito by her side, as he shows a great deal of empathy and good cheer. Even though she does have a slightly rough outer shell, she can be sweet and be a bit of a softie to both of her parents and favorite elder brother, Kaito. Maya is a jovial and flighty young girl who brings light, life, and love to her family. Her sunny attitude certainly makes Maya her mother’s favorite child and she brings a lot of unconditional love to her older siblings and her father. She is very playful to Kenta and Keita to the point where she enjoys…
Well, this is certainly a BroTP I feel like has oodles of plausibility and in my mind feel like it could work. I’m of course talking about Hakudoshi and Shippou. Here they are giving each other a high-five and being rather jolly with Hakudoshi having that mischief in his eyes while Shippou is the one that’s purely euphoric. In this piece of fanart, Hakudoshi is 25 and Shippou is 24 going on 25. If there is one thing I have to admit about the Inuyasha episodes after the Band of Seven or Shichinintai saga, it’s that the episodes after that saga range from indifference to absolute annoyance. There were side characters I never cared for and certain plot lines were more dragged out than I thought. That is until I saw Hakudoshi, as he seemed to have a certain dark charm that made him rather interesting. He was one of the very few characters I still stuck around for to some extent. With that said, what would happen if one were to combine Hakudoshi’s battle-hardened nature with Shippou’s brand of being adorable? A stable and solid friendship would occur that would beat all odds, as I do think that Shippou kind of deserves a male friend his age. So, enter Hakudoshi who could be the one to build up Shippou’s self-esteem as a fighter using his own brand of tough platonic love. Shippou would even be the one to break the ice within Hakudoshi to reveal a softer side to him, in spite of the occasional defenses. Sure, as children they would be rivals. However, as time goes by, they would respect each other in a way that they would acknowledge each others’ strengths and weaknesses, thus helping each other overcome any obstacle. Thanks for having a gander at this picture as well reading my post. Have a lovely spring. Hakudoshi and Shippou from Inuyasha belong to Rumiko Takahashi.
My dear viewers. I bestow upon you Rin, Kanna, Satsuki, and Souten, the four little girls of Inuyasha who have grown up to be lovely, elegant, and gracious young ladies. Their current ages in this pic are the following. Rin is 25 going on 26 years old, Kanna and Satsuki are 25, and Souten is 24 going on 25. In spite of the fact that Rin and Kanna are recurring characters and Satsuki and Souten are one-time characters, I feel like these young ladies steal the show for being rather endearing in their own ways. What with Rin and her jovial personality, Kanna and her lethal silence wrapped up in an unsuspectingly lovely package, Satsuki and her overall innocence, and Souten and her mischievousness, I totally ship these young women as my SisT4, the female version of a BroT4. In my headcanon for this quartet of young ladies, Rin is essentially the eldest and the leader of this quartet, as she has the most personality and she stands out rather well. She still has her jovial and jolly nature intact, as she knows when to let loose, and she is not bossy in the slightest. Kanna is still the quiet one, but she feels rather comfortable with her great gal pals by her side. Satsuki is the romantic creative with a bit of edge. One should never be fooled by her sweet attitude, as she is also a tough girl who is not afraid to put up a fight. Souten is still the tomboy but given that she’s in her twenties she has become more ladylike. She’s essentially the bruiser of this group, so if anyone dares to hurt any or all of her homegirls, she will unleash Hell with her combat prowess. Ergo, Rin has elegance, empathy, and kindness, Kanna has poise, class, and gentility, Satsuki has joy, laughter, and love, and Souten has strength, creativity, and endurance. As for who I ship them with, well it’s obvious that I ship Rin with Kohaku as my OTP because I feel like they were destined for each other. Besides, I always saw Sesshoumaru as her adoptive father, thus making me a fan of not only Kohaku/Rin but also Sesshoumaru/Kagome, as they would make solid parents to Rin and Shippou and even more solid grandparents to Kohaku’s and Rin’s and Shippou’s and Souten’s grandchildren. As for the other three, I ship Kanna with Souta because I do fancy the quiet girl and energetic boy type of pairings, Satsuki with Hakudoshi because I can and I am pretty sure they would help each other become stronger fighters, and Souten with Shippou because I can’t see any other girl with Shippou other than her and I am pretty sure that they would have a solid relationship. Yes, there’s also Satsuki but I see it more as a BroTP type of relationship with them being super supportive of each other. Thanks for taking a gander at this piece of fanart and for reading this post. I wish you a most pleasant day. Rin, Kanna, Satsuki, and Souten from Inuyasha belong to Rumiko Takahashi.
