This motivational poster, which is part of the annual Inuvember submissions, is dedicated to all of my InuAya-shipping friends, fellow artists, and brethren. So, sit back, relax, and soak in that InuAya epicness, awesomeness, beauty, and strength.
This is also my annual Red Ribbon Reviewers contribution for the year of 2019. So, do enjoy this meme that I have come up containing one of my most beloved Inuyasha OTPs of all time.
It is absolutely undeniable just how strong and formidable Inuyasha’s and Ayame’s relationship is, seeing just how well their personalities, fighting skills, and everything they are as people mesh superbly and in a most delightful way.
For those of you who know my personal headcanon for this couple, it goes something like this.
Inuyasha and Ayame knew each other when they were very young, but their relationship did not begin to flourish until 7-year-old Inuyasha rescued 4-year-old Ayame from the Birds of Paradise. This was when Inuyasha and Ayame really got to know each other and enjoy each others’ company to the point where Inuyasha ended up making a very important decision in his extremely young life to be inducted to the Northern Yoro or Northern Wolf Demon tribe. Therefore, Inuyasha trained with the other Northern Yoro warriors, as he learned to wrestle, hunt, fight, howl, and roar like a wolf, which left Ayame absolutely charmed by how strong and how formidable Inuyasha has grown up to be.
The icing on top of this delectable cake is just how proudly Inuyasha declared to Ayame that he will always be strong for her. This was a promise that he has kept all the way up to adulthood and even Inuyasha’s and Ayame’s years being not only proud parents to Dai, Roku, Masataka, Masaya, Motomu, Kenta, Keita, Kazuhiko, Kaito, Momoko, Makoto, Mikoto, Maya, and Minako but also being equally proud grandparents to their children’s children. Moreover, when it comes to Inuyasha’s muscles, those are Ayame’s most favorite parts about Inuyasha’s body, considering how he was able to use his super strength, superb fighting skills, and massive endurance to get the job done, and his amazing genes have also been passed down to Dai, Roku, Masataka, Masaya, Motomu, Kenta, Keita, Kazuhiko, and Kaito who even have the opportunity to go full yokai to increase their powers, durability, fighting prowess, and super strength.
But that’s not all, Sesshoumaru, even though he had a love-hate relationship with his brother Inuyasha, was rather supportive of Inuyasha and Ayame being together, and even appreciated just how well they work off of each other and how much they strengthen each other 24 hours a day and 7 days a week. This has gotten to the point where Sesshoumaru expressed how proud he was of his brother and gave him brotherly advice that he should always be there for Ayame, comfort her when she is down, and treat her the queen that she is. Sesshoumaru even ended up having quite the firm big brother-in-law relationship with Ayame to the point where he told her how proud he was of Ayame to be with Inuyasha, seeing that she is more formidable and powerful than other mortal girl and would do a whole world of good in Inuyasha’s life. Ergo, Sesshoumaru has given his blessing to Inuyasha and Ayame to thrive as a powerful yet extremely loving couple. He also did one leave ultimatum to the both of them. Should both of them be so brazen to betray each other, have affairs or hurt each other, he would easily disown them in a heartbeat and would no longer call Inuyasha his little brother and Ayame his little sister-in-law.
When all is said and done, with oodles of unconditional love, a stress-free relationship, loads of healthy synergy, and great chemistry between the dog hanyou king and his wolf yokai queen, Inuyasha and Ayame certainly make the cut as an awesome, fierce, and beautiful couple.
I hope you all enjoyed this motivational poster centered on Inuyasha x Ayame and I will see you in the next submission. Take care, everybody.
