Greetings and salutations, fellow aficionados of anime, Power Rangers, Super Sentai, and everything early 1990s to early 2000s, Antoni here. This shall be the very last updated Toonami-era Inurangers teams list that serves as a fictional counterpart to the real-life Saban Era of the Power Rangers from 1993 starting with Mighty Morphin Power Rangers to 2002 ending with Power Rangers Wild Force before moving to Disney, specifically ABC Kids, after Episode 26. My fictionalized Toonami-era Inurangers series would air from August 28, 2000, starting with all three seasons of Mighty Morphin Inurangers to December 31, 2005, ending with Inurangers Wild Force. Where Mighty Morphin Inurangers is concerned, this is going to be the season consisting of decomposite and composite characters for the main seven rangers, as I base them on which real-life counterparts they fit best. So, no Peace Conferences, no International Gymnastics deals, and no unexplained replacements are going to occur. Furthermore, this list is going to be kept to solely seven members per installment, considering that it follows the Super Sentai pattern of different team members per season. After much thinking, reflecting, and re-tweaking, and since Mighty Morphin Power Rangers’ 30th anniversary is gradually then suddenly approaching, I believe I have concocted a finalized Toonami-Era Inurangers line-up that I am most satisfied with and one that I feel makes more sense. I also feel that this line-up is going to be a whole lot more fully realized and legitimate after the countless times I have been updating and re-updating the team line-up for what felt like ages. The same rule applies that the main seven colors of red, green or any other color, white or any other color, black or blue, blue or green, yellow, and pink apply to each ranger team. As to be expected certain characters such as Billy Cranston from Zeo, Adam Park from In Space, Nancy Cooper from Lightspeed Rescue, Alex Drake from Time Force, and even Princess Shayla from Wild Force are going to have their more fictional counterparts more active rangers to thoroughly complete the seven-ranger team line-up for each season. With that said, it is time to morph into action for my final update of the Toonami-era Inurangers teams from Mighty Morphin to Wild Force. Say it with me now, everybody. It’s Morphin’ Time! Shift into Turbo! Let’s rocket! Go galactic! Lightspeed Rescue! Time for Time Force! Wild access!

Anime
Greetings, anime fans, martial arts aficionados, fighting game devotees, and enthusiasts of all things pertaining to anime, martial arts, video games, and fighting tournaments. Antoni here with another written entry. It should come off as no surprise that I love anime, martial arts, fighting games, and martial arts tournaments such as UFC and what we have today with Karate Combat. I revel in how diverse and intriguing fight choreography can be when the impact of a punch, kick, strike, and/or grapple can have on a combatant. Most of all, I enjoy the brutality of any blow or hold that is unleashed by the combatant whether in a real-life martial arts tournament or in fighting video games such as Tekken and Street Fighter. Therefore, martial arts tournaments melding with fighting games and anime are up there with the best things ever to make any nerd let alone otaku enthusiastic as well as grin from ear to ear. Given my experience of growing up with various anime series, fighting video games, and martial arts tournaments, I thought it would be fun to make seven groups of seven anime characters that I grew up with and give them the martial arts I think perfectly suit them. A good number of them will be based on canon, while others will be based on fanon. There are going to be a good number of characters that I grew up with from Inuyasha, Fullmetal Alchemist, Solty Rei, Detective School Q, Ultra Maniac, Wolf’s Rain, Technolyze, Baki the Grappler, Shootfighter Tekken, Shura no Toki, Chrono Crusade, Geneshaft, Samurai 7, and Hajime no Ippo who will be featured on here. I am sure that fellow hardcore anime fans would recognize them in the team-ups provided as well as make their own assessments of the martial arts I have provided for them. With that said, arm yourselves well and be prepared to kick butt with these eight martial arts teams of seven consisting of anime characters I have had fond memories with ever since I was a child. You might even feel you are going through a character selection of your favorite fighting game. The Splendid Seven (Sesshoumaru, Shuran, Inuyasha, Hakkaku, Ginta, Ayame, and Shunran) These seven Yokai warriors, consisting of two dog Yokai brothers, Sesshoumaru and Inuyasha, three spiky-haired brothers, Shuran, Hakkaku, and Ginta, and two auburn-haired sisters, Ayame and Shunran, capitalize on bloody brutality when they pummel their opponents without respite or mercy, thus making them emerge as victors in any tournament. Therefore, they prove themselves to be a strong team because of how much they can take brutal hits from their opponents while delivering more serious ones. Strength and stealth define them with abandon, and they do not surrender that easily when the chips are down. Sesshoumaru (Inuyasha) – Mixed Martial Arts Shuran (Inuyasha) – Professional Wrestling Inuyasha (Inuyasha) – Pankration Hakkaku (Inuyasha) – Muay Boran Ginta (Inuyasha) – Lehtwei Ayame (Inuyasha) – Taekwondo Shunran (Inuyasha) – Shaolin Kung Fu The Honorable Budoka (Kuranosuke, Kisuke, Shinosuke, Toran, Wakana, Enju, and Karan) Honor, decorum, valor, and stamina are the hallmarks of what defines them as martial artists. The three dashing gentlemen, consisting of Kuranosuke Takeda, Kisuke, and Shinosuke, have been Karate practitioners ever since they were young boys. While the four ladies, consisting of Toran, Wakana, Enju, and Karan, are deeply rooted in Chinese martial arts. Their strikes are a combination of accurate and deadly because of how much they do not hold back in unleashing their series of punches, kicks, and strikes, thus numbing their opponents in pain due to knowing a thing or two about pressure points. Kuranosuke Takeda (Inuyasha) – Shotokan Karate Kisuke (Inuyasha) – Goju-Ryu Karate Shinosuke (Inuyasha) – Kyokushin Karate Toran (Inuyasha) – Wing Chun Wakana (Inuyasha) – Baguazhang Enju (Inuyasha) – Wushu Karan (Inuyasha) – Hung Gar The Kings of the Iron Fist (Baki, Ryoma, Takeshi, Kiibo, Alexander, Ichiro, and Ippo) Boxing or Mixed Martial Arts? Who gives a damn? Seven strong dudes who use Boxing’s punishing punches while incorporating Mixed Martial Arts’ strangulating clinches and bloody attacks? You’re going to give a damn, especially when Baki Hanma, Ryoma Sakamoto, Takeshi Sendo, Kiibo Miyazawa, Alexander Volg Zangief, Ichiro Miyata, and Ippo Makunouchi combine their furious fists, super strength, and crushing clinches with aplomb! Once these seven strong clinchers and punchers put their fists and clinches to great use, their opponents need pray profusely for their survival to not end up dead, let alone reside in a hospital. Baki Hanma (Baki the Grappler) – Total Fighting Style Mixed Boxing Ryoma Sakamoto (Shura no Toki) – Pride FC Style Mixed Boxing Takeshi Sendo (Hajime no Ippo) – Naniwa Style Mixed Boxing Kiichi “Kiibo” Miyazawa (Shootfighter Tekken) – Nanshin Shadow Style Mixed Boxing Alexander Volg Zangief (Hajime no Ippo) – Otowa Style Mixed Boxing Ichiro Miyata (Hajime no Ippo) – Kawahara Style Mixed Boxing Ippo Makunouchi (Hajime no Ippo) – Kamogawa Style Mixed Boxing The Queens of Titanium Strikes (Rosé T, Rose A, Winry, Megumi, Maya, Solty, and Kaoru) There is no escape let alone point of blocking when these seven sultry babes have shell-shocking strikes to perfectly compliment their fancy footwork. Whether Rosé Thomas, Rose Anderson, Winry Rockbell, Megumi Minami, Maya Orihara, Solty Revant, and Kaoru Ichinose use their punches, kicks, and strikes to take their opponents down or use defenses and evasion to block their opponent’s attacks, they never surrender before the bell rings. Therefore, they may be beauties with a strong sense of sisterhood, but they fight like vicious beasts who leave their opponents bloodied and bruised without respite. Rosé Thomas (Fullmetal Alchemist) – Dutch Kickboxing Rose Anderson (Solty Rei) – Shootboxing Winry Rockbell (Fullmetal Alchemist) – American Kickboxing Megumi Minami (Detective School Q) – Sanda Maya Orihara (Ultra Maniac) – Japanese Kickboxing Solty Revant (Solty Rei) – Savate Kaoru Ichinose (Detective School Q) – Combat Hopak The Vicious Executioners (Yoshiki, Mamoru, Tsume, Mitsuhide, Masaru, Tatsuya, and Ryuichi) Heavyweight champions do not begin to describe…
This screenshot demotivational poster is highly, utterly, indubitably, and absolutely Anti-Sango. Sit back, relax, and join me in my unapologetic hatred against this pathetic excuse of a demon slayer. I can hear all the Sango fans whining and crying at me saying that the hate against Sango is so forced. I can even hear some fantards go at me and say that I am a misogynist even if I am proven time and time again to those tin-heads that I like specific heroines who are not this pathetic excuse of a demon slayer and who are a million times better than Sango will ever be. Nevertheless, I am sufficiently brave to stand my ground as always and not cave into the crap that I am being fed. Sango was nothing more than the biggest fool I have ever seen in Inuyasha. From her being a member of Kagome’s followers to partaking in maltreating Inuyasha to her utter incompetence when actually facing Naraku, she has done nothing more than be a hindrance to herself and to the ones who are supposed to be her allies. She is nothing more than a pitiful fool who has devolved into a breeding mare for a pathetic pervert and hypocrite. Sure, she may be a mother to three children who have taken on her “legacy”, but she is nothing more than a pathetic joke who may as well be stabbed by Devil May Cry’s very own Vergil. One of the many misdeeds Sango has to account for is her blatant lies and hypocrisy. For somebody who swore to stay by Inuyasha’s side in Episode 52 after his full-demon transformation, she did a terrible job at being the companion he truly needed. Perhaps if she listened to him a lot more and gravitated less towards Kagome’s “hurt feelings”, there could have been a firmer friendship and far more respect between Inuyasha and Sango. I may not romantically ship them because I am more partial to Inuyasha x Ayame. However, after everything Sango failed to do for Inuyasha as a comrade, companion, and friend, she deserves absolutely nothing. I am aware of the whole belief that girls can stick together, but Sango’s follower nature towards Kagome is taken up to eleven that I cannot believe just how much of a sad, pathetic loser she is. Despite supposedly having the strength of more than ten men, all she has going for herself is latching on to what other people think instead of thinking for herself. This has caused her to be nothing more than a skank who cannot save herself from crap. Her foolishness does not remain with Inuyasha and how he has become a victim of her being such a pathetic bystander, but she is also complicit in making herself weak for her pervert monk in the face of sacrificing Rin to save his pathetic life. This would have hurt Sesshoumaru the most, as he did go through development in understanding what his and Inuyasha’s father wanted to teach them, and that was compassion for others, hence his birthright with Tenseiga and finding his own path with Bakusaiga. Her falling for Naraku’s tricks for the umpteenth time was the last straw, considering that she has always fallen for his rubbish since he implanted the initial seeds of mistrust toward Inuyasha when he framed him for slaughtering her demon slayer comrades. Now with Rin in the mix, the fact that Sango thought she had to kill Rin to save her fellow pathetic loser Miroku was the lousiest display of incompetence I have ever seen. Sesshoumaru should have killed Sango right then and there because she was about to slaughter Rin just to save that hypocritical loser who has been womanizing and being plain deceitful. For her corporal punishment, she might as well be tied to a sequoia tree waiting for the nearest semi-truck to crush her into a bloody mess. Once she is crushed to a bloodied mess by that semi-truck, her body shall be chopped up to bits by hatchets as if though she were in a butcher’s shop. Then, throw her mangled corpse in a cauldron and douse her with kerosene and butane. Finally, light up a match, watch the flame burn, and incinerate her useless carcass. If I want something more violent for Sango, I would gladly unleash the Psycho Rangers to mangle her and crack every joint in her body. Once that is done, the Psycho Rangers would gladly tear her up to bloodied shreds. Finally, the Psycho Rangers would bring what is left of Sango’s mangled body as an offering to Lord Zedd and Master Org, thus making both demon lords incinerate her carcass with their staffs. Oh, what a fitting end Sango will have. Death is a wonderful solution to make this pathetic floozy suffer. Besides, seeing this dumb floozy die a horrible death would be a very ideal end after everything she failed to do for Inuyasha and what she did to Rin. I hope you all enjoyed this, as well as the ways to do away with Sango, and I will see you in the next submission. Take care, stay safe, and have no pity for Sango, everybody. The Pathetic, Two-Bit, and Stupid Floozy from Inuyasha belongs to Rumiko Takahashi and Sunrise.
This screenshot demotivational poster is highly, utterly, indubitably, and absolutely Anti-Sango. Sit back, relax, and revel in the evisceration I have in store for this pathetically stupid floozy. The problems I have with Sango do not even begin to describe how much I hate her to this day and find her extremely problematic. You can call it the blind hero-worshipping I used to have from my pre-adolescent to teenage years for this loser floozy taking on demon slayer duties. Her lack of common sense, inability to think for herself, inconsistent skills, and amazing stupidity do not make her a demon slayer at all. She is nothing more than an over-glorified bimbo who is all style and barely any substance. Besides, Sango has been falling for Naraku’s traps and tricks several times. Yes, she may have overcome some of the demon puppets created by Naraku, but when it comes to taking him down, she did show potential, but she ended up falling for his tricks hook, line, and sinker. She was not even any better during her battle with the Panther Devas when she could have been more useful other than having Sesshoumaru and Inuyasha take down the Panther King themselves. Therefore, Sango is a pathetic loser who is all talk, all style, and all looks but has no substance, no brain, and no common sense. For someone who is supposed to be a powerful demon slayer, it is incredibly laughable how quickly and easily Sango falls for nearly all of Naraku’s tricks and gets herself trapped by enemies who are a lot stronger than her. She has the weapons and the skills to overcome her physical obstacles, but she does not enact on the determination and strong willpower that she thought she had. One egregious example is her constantly pining over her lost brother Kohaku in terms of how much she wants him back despite him not being psychologically ready to become a demon slayer himself, how he was manipulated into killing the demon slayer clan, how he became an unwilling pawn in Naraku’s machinations, and the many horrible atrocities he has done outside Naraku’s control. The natural thing Sango should have done was kill him because he unwillingly and willingly killed a lot of people to not have any memories of the crap he has done or some stupid plan of him being free from Naraku’s grasp. Common sense should have told Sango to not give in to sibling piety and execute Kohaku for good and for all. Even worse is what Sango did in Inuyasha: The Final Act, specifically when it came to nearly killing Rin to save that other pathetic loser Miroku. Seriously, after every hypocritical and lousy deed that Miroku has done, Sango should have seen nothing in him because he was a pathetically empty shell of a monk and of a man. The only thing that brought Miroku and Sango together is how they were nothing more than Kagome’s posse and antagonistic towards Inuyasha when it came to his trauma with Kikyou. Her pathetic loser side was made extremely clear when Miroku was using Rin as a sacrifice to make the Shikon Jewel far more corrupted yet powerful. All Sango had to do was kill Rin to save Miroku, but she was too stupid to realize that it was all an illusion by Naraku. After what Rin had to endure with death two times, first at Kouga’s hands and second in the underworld, Sesshoumaru could not let her suffer another death, especially not at the hands of both Naraku and Sango combined. Naraku’s final test of temptation for Sango was what she failed at, and she should have been killed by Sesshoumaru once and for all. Sango’s pathetic weakness and egregious incompetence truly make her a loser par excellence. She has failed multiple times at realizing all the horrible machinations Naraku set her up, specifically when it came to Kohaku and how she was about to kill Rin to be reunited with her beloved pathetic pervert. It was also laughable to see how far she has devolved from being a combatant with heaps of potential to keep growing and stay unfettered to a pathetic weakling who has poor priorities and is easily fooled by Naraku while staying loyal to a faithless loser pervert. I would have loved for this pathetic loser known as Sango to suffer this cruel punishment. She may as well find herself at the Psycho Rangers’ hands in terms of being impaled, beheaded, and quartered by them. For great measure, Master Org can place various curses on her and incinerate her entire body. Finally, Sango may as well be devoured by Trakeena and her minions, thus making her nothing but fodder for the Power Rangers villains. Whatever punishment fits this pathetic skank can be just as strong as Sesshoumaru slicing her to bits with Bakusaiga. She deserves it. I hope you all enjoyed this, and I will see you in the next submission. Take care, stay safe, and do not be incompetent like Sango, everybody.

This screenshot demotivational poster is highly, utterly, indubitably, and absolutely Anti-Shippou. Sit back, relax, and understand that Shippou has no excuse for being such an ungrateful individual as well as a pathetic excuse for a Kitsune. No matter how many times I say this, no matter how many times I have made this explicitly clear ad nauseam, and no matter how many times I have to state this, Shippou’s status as a tagalong kid let alone his age as a child never excused him from his atrocious behavior towards the people who discipline him and saved his useless, hypocritical, pathetic, smart-mouthing behind. Time and again, he has proven himself to be the most ungrateful, vindictive, mean, and condescending loser I have ever seen desecrate the small screen. For any shota fan or butthurt fantard going at me proclaiming that I am being too mean to him or being horrible to him, I do not buy the excuses you are popping from your behinds about this miserable excuse of a Kitsune. Shippou deserves all of my rage, ire, wrath, and hatred to the point where I would gladly incinerate him with kerosene, butane, and a lit match. That is just how atrocious he is as an individual. Every time I hear this turd open his mouth and spout out words of ingratitude and hypocrisy, I just want to douse him with kerosene and throw a lit candle at his useless carcass. I would have to be the most naive person in the world to show any empathy and pity for this horrible excuse of a Kitsune let alone tagalong kid character because I do not have a single ounce of kindness towards him. From the beginning, Shippou has presented himself as a weak fighter and big talker who is all bark and no bite. The whole excuse surrounding him being a child does not faze me, and it never will. There have been more capable child characters than Shippou who have proven themselves to be craftier, cleverer, tougher, and smarter than this loser. Ed from Cowboy Bebop, Maggie Simpson, Stewie Griffin, and Chibiusa would definitely trounce his worthless behind, destroy him, and turn him into a pelt for their pleasure. What is worse is that Shippou is a young Kitsune. Therefore, he would have been clever, resourceful, and crafty for his young age, but he is nothing more than a mouthy loser who likes to make Inuyasha feel small and worthless just because he is a half-demon and Shippou is a Kitsune, despite not being useful. No doubt that Shippou is just a pathetic little skid mark that needs to be wiped away forever. Once again, I need to bring up Shippou’s ingratitude because this is the benchmark of what always made him an unlikable turd unworthy of any redemption. The countless occasions where Inuyasha saved his and his poor excuses of comrades’ behinds should account for how much Shippou needs to be taught a hard lesson on gratitude. This pathetic little piece of fecal matter had the audacity to state to Inuyasha that he can brag all he wants about where he and the other three losers known as Miroku, Sango, and Kagome would have been without his strength and loyalty. Mind you, this was after Inuyasha rescued those four losers from Garamaru’s destructive cocoons by reminding them that they had something to live for and fought tooth and nail to try to get them out of there. After everything Inuyasha has done to keep him safe and well, despite the jabs he throws at him to toughen him up, Shippou continues to be a vindictive and mean little prick who does not know the first thing about gratitude. His characterization in Yashahime also failed because he was still the uncompassionate twerp he has always been. Fans of Shippou may cry foul at me for being too hard on him, but I will always stand my ground and argue that his behavior can never be excused either just because of his age or his status as the “team mascot” when he is actually nothing more than a filthy pest. He has never grown in charm let alone in strength, and there was not one moment where he reflected more on his actions and words in terms of who he has hurt or caused rifts with. He has caused far more strife than relief because of his ludicrous antics and complete lack of compassion and consideration toward others, especially toward Inuyasha. Therefore, I and many other people who do not like Shippou have every reason to call out his actions, thus placing them in the spotlight and ensuring that he has no place to hide from his overall crappiness. Shippou’s atrocities far precede him in terms of how he does not learn from his mistakes, is not worth redeeming, may as well be skinned and tanned, and is best used as a pelt, a carpet, and/or a floor rug for the holidays instead of the supposed Kitsune he was designated to be. I hope you all enjoyed my evisceration of this loser, and I will see you in the next submission. Take care, stay safe, Happy Holidays, and do not be pathetic like Shippou, everybody. The Lousy, Badmouthing, and Horrid Jackass from Inuyasha belongs to Rumiko Takahashi and Sunrise.
This screenshot demotivational poster is highly, utterly, indubitably, and absolutely Anti-Shippou. Sit back, relax, and enjoy my evisceration of this pathetic excuse of a Kitsune and why I believe he gives fascinating creatures like Kitsune a terrible name. People who defend Shippou or are lenient towards him can perform the same song and dance with me about how he is just a child, he is just comic relief, and/or both all they want. However, I do not buy any of these excuses at all. I have seen funnier comic reliefs who are not insufferable little ingrates. I have seen more lovable kid characters who have a deeper sense of understanding and compassion. For today’s discourse, I have seen cooler, craftier, fiercer, and more formidable Kitsune than the pathetic, ungrateful, horrid, hateful little bastard known as Shippou. I will always argue that Shippou gives Kitsune a horrible name because he is not crafty in the slightest. Yes, he can change into different creatures, but he does it haphazardly to the point where Kirara and Hachiemon were more reliable than this little prick will ever be. He is just a pathetic bigmouth who had the potential to grow, but his powers were inconsequential at best and useless at worst. Therefore, he deserves only my pity for not reaching his full potential as a resourceful warrior and a reliable member of the team he was in. Coming from somebody who knows a fair amount of Japanese mythology, Kitsune are known to be crafty, cunning, wise, and rely mostly on a quick mind than mighty muscle when it comes to overcoming their foes. Shippou is the unfortunate opposite of what Kitsune is supposed to be because he is an unfunny coward without an inch of craftiness in his mind, body, and soul. Instead of growing in wisdom and cunning for his young age, he would rather be a snide loser whose bark is much worse than his bite as well as be coddled by three other losers in Miroku, Sango, and Kagome. Shippou is only effective with weaker opponents and does not even have the will to challenge himself let alone build up his own strength and skill. It really says something that a flea demon like Myoga, a blacksmith like Totosai, a Kappa like Jaken, and a Tanuki like Hachiemon are far more useful, cunning, and hilarious than Shippou will ever be. I never expect him to be as awesome as Yoko Kurama or as overly powerful as the Nine-Tailed Fox Demon, but his lack of power and cunning make Shippou truly lame and weak against his opponents. Speaking of not being as great as Yoko Kurama or the Nine-Tailed Fox Demon because he lacks strength, stamina, stealth, and smarts, Shippou’s weakness as a fighter and as one of my favorite Japanese mythical beings ever extends to his lack of growth. The little he does learn throughout the course of the series ends up being all for naught. He does not grow more compassionate or more powerful or more conscientious as a warrior and as an individual. He continues to be an unreliable ally who does not acquire new skills to challenge himself, thus not making him helpful in taking down stronger demons including, the worst of them all, Naraku. The excuse of him being a child and a comic relief all fall flat on deaf ears because he should have used his skills to grow as a fighter, but he did not. It says something that even Justin Stewart from Power Rangers Turbo was more reliable to his older teammates/surrogate older brothers and sisters because he had sufficient smarts and moves to help his comrades and friends out of sticky and compromising situations. What remain of Shippou is his weakness and my pity. When the likes of Jaken, Myoga, Totosai, and Hachiemon are more useful than a hellion like Shippou, you know that something is indubitably wrong with this picture of supposed power from a Kitsune. The excuses of him being a tagalong kid and a comic relief are absolute bollocks because there have been kid characters who were far more reliable let alone stronger and cleverer than this turd will ever be such as Power Rangers Turbo’s Justin Stewart the Blue Turbo Power Ranger. Justin has proven himself to be resourceful, reliable, courageous, and understanding despite some mixed fan reception of him being a kid ending up as a Power Ranger, although the likes of Kou and Riki from Dairanger and Ohranger are also young children who take on ranger duties and do them well. I never bought Shippou’s minuscule contributions to his group/surrogate family because he lacks resourcefulness and courage. If he did grow into a more resourceful Kitsune, instead of the mouthy little loser that he is, perhaps I would root for him more. However, as he is, he is a pathetic loser worthy of the title of a skinned pelt than a Kitsune. I hope you all enjoyed this, and I will see you in the next submission. Take care, stay safe, and never be useless like Shippou is, everybody. The Lousy, Badmouthing, and Horrid Jackass from Inuyasha belongs to Rumiko Takahashi and Sunrise.

This screenshot demotivational poster is highly, utterly, indubitably, and absolutely Anti-Kagome. Sit back, relax, and allow me to hammer this self-pitying, self-absorbed, idiotic, narcissistic road whore several pegs down to the cold ground and use her head as a croquet wicket. In kinder words, just enjoy the furious evisceration I have for this pathetic self-pitying narcissist of a floozy. For my whole life of watching Inuyasha’s supposed “heroine” and poor excuse of a “love interest”, I was never invested with her whole spiel of feeling sorry for herself just because she could not measure up to Kikyou’s standards. Sunrise may have tried to make Kagome more of a heroine than Kikyou as well as play up the whole love triangle to a soap-operatic degree, but this had the opposite effect on me as a viewer. In my eyes, Kagome became more of an insufferable narcissist who could never accept the fact that Inuyasha is his own person with his own life, a warrior who incurred multiple physical and mental scars in his life, and he was also an unwilling pawn in Naraku’s manipulation against him and Kikyou, thus attempting to find closure with Kagome’s more superior ancestor. Every time Kagome sees Inuyasha with Kikyou, she ends up becoming mopey, unnecessarily jealous, and a total nuisance. Instead of being the heroine she ought to be by improving herself and her combat skills, she results to what she does best, moping around and manipulating her army of skanks consisting of Miroku, Sango, and Shippou to feel sorry for her. Therefore, I never had and will never have sympathy let alone compassion for this vile narcissist and domineering egomaniac. Imagine if Jen Scotts, Kendrix Morgan, Karone, Cassie Chan, Kimberly Ann Hart, Katherine Hillard, Dana Mitchell, and Alyssa Enrile were in a room with Kagome Higurashi. I am pretty sure these iconic Pink Power Rangers of the Saban Era would be rolling their eyes and groaning at Kagome’s self-pitying whiner attitude, her constant moping, her blatant disregard for Inuyasha’s feelings, and her self-centredness to the point where they would be indubitably irritated by this pathetic wench. Jen Scotts in particular would be frustrated with Kagome. Jen would go down hard on Kagome and tear her to shreds by stating that she would never be this whiney towards Wes because she and he are their own people with their own lives, they respect each other, and they have something called healthy boundaries, patience, humility, and unconditional love. She would even call Kagome out on her uselessness in battle, willingness to be nothing more than a pathetic doormat, always rely on Inuyasha to rescue her, and, most of all, her bullying towards Inuyasha, despite the fact that Kagome herself is not that much of a fighter and should have asked Miroku and Sango for additional guidance as a combatant instead of using them as her yes-people. Furthermore, Jen would also call out Kagome for not taking her hunt for the Shikon Jewel shards more seriously instead of focusing more on her middle school drama, entrance exams, and other trivial matters. Aiding Jen are Karone, Kendrix, Cassie, Kimberly, Katherine, Dana, and Alyssa who would all bring Kagome down on her blatant abuse towards Inuyasha, her hollowness as a fighter and as a person, and her overblown belief that the whole universe revolves around her. These Pink Power Rangers do not play Kagome’s game of stomping her feet off like a whining madame if she does not get her way or if Inuyasha acts out of line. As punishment for Kagome’s crimes, Kimberly and Katherine are going to tie her on a pole. Cassie, Kendrix, Karone, and Dana are going to chain Kagome up. Alyssa will then beat Kagome on the head with a mace. Finally, Jen the Queen of the Pink Power Rangers herself will have a cattle prod in hand and beat the ever-loving crap out of Kagome with it until all the vicious shockwaves leave drained like a wilted vegetable. If Kagome can inflict that much abuse on Inuyasha, Jen can certainly tear Kagome’s ass to shreds both verbally and physically as well, and she would do an amazing job at it. To say the Pink Power Rangers are disappointed and unimpressed with Kagome is a mere understatement, for they are thoroughly appalled at her lack of responsibility and will to improve herself. The Saban-Era Pink Power Rangers would not be the only true heroines who would reduce Kagome to shreds, but also Sarasim, Bumblebee, Starfire, Raven, Jinx, Terra, and Katara. Sarasim would perceive Kagome as a puerile nuisance who only knows how to whine and complain. Bumblebee would be flat-out irritated with her stupidity of wearing her school uniform in the Feudal Era. Starfire would be appalled at Kagome’s horrible and inhumane treatment of Inuyasha with the vile Beads of Subjugation. Raven would find herself utterly irritated with Kagome’s self-pity, mopey attitude, and total lack of discipline in her discipline as a warrior and supposed descendent of a shrine maiden. Jinx would not find a single thing lovable about Kagome and see her as nothing more than an empty loser. Terra would not be impressed with Kagome’s track record of being kidnapped nearly all the time and relying on Inuyasha to save her. Finally, Katara would deliver the most painful and most cutting criticism of Kagome because she would never go easy on her. Katara would call out Kagome on her immaturity, willingness to not see the bigger picture of what was going on in Inuyasha’s life, blatantly taking advantage of Miroku’s, Sango’s, and Shippou’s loyalty to her and make her seem better than Inuyasha when she never was, and how she never takes her skills as an archer seriously enough yet only relies on luck. Katara as well as the other aforementioned superheroines have been training their entire lives to master their crafts and not always relied on men to save them. All they see in Kagome is a pathetic woman-child who could not…
Greetings, Splendid Seven devotees, martial arts aficionados, and fighting video game fans. Antoni here with another written entry focusing on Sesshoumaru, Shuran, Inuyasha, Hakkaku, Ginta, Ayame, and Shunran specialising in the martial arts they do. Today, I will be delving into the updated main signature martial arts I have in store for Sesshoumaru, Shuran, Inuyasha, Hakkaku, Ginta, Ayame, and Shunran. Some of them still have theirs intact, while others have changed up a bit because I figured that the martial arts that I have for some of them were more appropriate than the ones I initially planned. When it comes to the martial arts, it is common knowledge that cross-training in various martial arts other than either the first one or the signature one is beneficial to expand a combatant’s repertoire in either a fight or evading a compromising situation. Additionally, most martial arts instructors would highly recommend their students to train in a variety of other martial arts, not just the one they have. Nevertheless, the main martial art which the practitioner has not only defines them and the attacks they have learned and implemented regardless of the situation but also who they are as people. There is no shadow of a doubt that Sesshoumaru, Shuran, Inuyasha, Hakkaku, Ginta, Ayame, and Shunran are practitioners of seven signature martial arts. While they have been great at what they have done thanks to hard training and loads of discipline, there will always be that one signature martial art that has defined them throughout the years as combatants and as individuals. These main martial arts are not only measured by sheer lethalness but also by how closely they represent their personalities and characters. With that said, let us get ready to rumble with their updated main signature martial arts. Osu. Hajime. Sesshoumaru: Shotokan Karate Quick counterattacks, precise blows, eviscerating takedowns, and impactful attacks are the physical components necessary for Sesshoumaru to master Shotokan Karate, which he does by combining technical precision with relentless power, especially in knowing his opponents’ strong and weak points. Furthermore, he follows dojo conduct and observes the protocol of Kihon, Kata, and Kumite with discipline and commitment as a martial artist and as a person. Signature attacks that his opponents need to look out for are his spear-hand strikes, knife-hand strikes, ridge-hand strikes, ox-jaw strikes, low kicks, foot sweeps, and leg wheels. Shuran: Professional Wrestling Overpowering bravado, a large-and-in-charge presence, strangulating submission holds, and vicious throws are what Shuran embodies in the Professional Wrestling world thanks to him implementing brute force and abundant strength in order to make his opponents submit and fall to their knees. His strong will to combat bigger and stronger opponents fills him up with excitement and thrills him to never give in to resting on his laurels, which he instils in his students. Signature attacks his opponents need to look out for are his bearhugs, piledrivers, sharpshooters, torture racks, full Nelsons, German suplexes, and suplex powerslams. Inuyasha: Pankration Muscular strength, bloody ferociousness, lethal strikes, and brutal grappling are the fundamentals that Inuyasha has in store to triumph in Pankration, considering how he uses his magnificent muscles and muscular manliness to thoroughly conquer his opponents. Friends, family, and opponents alike would admire him for keeping his muscular body toned like a Renaissance sculpture and his spirit burning like a flame-filled vessel. Signature attacks his opponents need to look out for are his double axe handles, ground-and-pounds, Superman punches, hammer fists, tracheal grip chokes, rear-naked chokes, and armbars. Hakkaku: Muay Boran Iron limbs, steely stamina, rock-hard stealth, and energetic movements are what Hakkaku bears to open gates in the Muay Boran arenas, for he is unafraid to incorporate his voracious clinches and venomous strikes as his main weapons of choice against his opponents. All bets are off when opponents attempt to steal his thunder because he would strike back with a fantastic vengeance supported by his head, fists, legs, and knees. Signature attacks his opponents need to look out for are his elbow slashes, horizontal elbow strikes, spinning elbow strikes, upward headbutts, overhand punches, flying knee strikes, and knee bombs. Ginta: Lethwei Relentless excitement, metal elbows, granite knees, and steel shins are what Ginta needs to bolster his skills in the Lethwei environment, thus applying his shattering blows and piercing attacks to make his opponents scarce. Every occasion he uses his limbs, head, knees, elbows, and shins as weapons, his opponents should already realise that he is not one combatant they should go easy on because he can unleash a flurry of deadly strikes. Signature attacks his opponents need to look out for are his thrusting headbutts, side headbutts, spinning backfists, cross punches, flying elbow strikes, jumping knee strikes, and push kicks. Ayame: Bokator Boundless ferocity, titanium fists, lightning feet, and endless ambition form the cornerstone of Ayame involving herself in Bokator with all of her being and making her glorious punches and exceptional kicks all the more laudable in fending herself off against her opponents. Ayame’s opponents better prepare themselves for her attacks because the wounds they will acquire from her may take weeks or months to heal and may potentially land them in the hospital for good. Signature attacks her opponents need to look out for are her uppercuts, jabs, hooks, liver punches, reverse punches, spinning axe kicks, and roundhouse kicks. Shunran: Shaolin Kung Fu Accurate grace, fearless willpower, great cunning, and crafty cleverness form the foundation of Shunran immersing herself in Shaolin Kung Fu with all of her heart and making her bruising kicks and impactful strikes all the more exceptional in shielding herself from the attacks of her opponents. Shunran’s opponents should make it second nature to arm themselves against her attacks because they can leave them incapacitated, and she knows their weak spots. Signature attacks her opponents need to look out for are her leopard blows, finger strikes, palm strikes, nerve strikes, tornado kicks, double flying kicks, and split kicks. …
Greetings, Splendid Seven devotees, martial arts aficionados, and fighting video game fans. Antoni here with another written entry focusing on Sesshoumaru, Shuran, Inuyasha, Hakkaku, Ginta, Ayame, and Shunran specialising in the martial arts they do. Today, I will be delving into my seven most favourite pairings revolving around Sesshoumaru, Shuran, Inuyasha, Hakkaku, Ginta, Ayame, and Shunran in the forms of martial arts sparring matches. Five pairings shall be categorised as platonic, while two shall be categorised as romantic, with one being classified as my most beloved OTP of all time and the other being classified as my most beloved OT3 ever. Martial arts and relationships whether platonic or romantic really do go together because of how important cooperation, respect, allegiance, loyalty, support, interpersonal strength, and unconditional love are in terms of overcoming any and all obstacles. If you are a family of seven Yokai martial artists like Sesshoumaru, Shuran, Inuyasha, Hakkaku, Ginta, Ayame, and Shunran are, you would be able to overcome every obstacle if not more with all of your being. Punches, kicks, grapples, takedowns, chokeholds, submission holds, and strikes aside, what remains pivotal is the genuine companionship and unblemished trust both partners have for each other, regardless of the relationship being platonic or romantic. With that said, let us delve into my three most adored BroTPs, two of my most esteemed BroT3s, my most beloved OTP of all time, and my most admired OT3 ever from this family of seven powerful Yokai martial artists in martial arts sparring forms. They will, as always, be listed in terms of overall lethalness, but knowing these seven Yokai martial artists, anything they do can be considered lethal if their opponents are not cautious. Osu. Hajime! Sesshoumaru and Inuyasha (BroTP): Brutally Powerful Annihilators These two dog Yokai warrior brothers are known for the brute strength, lightning speed, steely stamina, and deadly stealth found in their devastating uppercuts, jabs, front punches, reverse punches, spinning axe kicks, roundhouse kicks, joint locks, and chokeholds. Every attack these two brothers launch can mean sudden death to their opponents. Their lengthy experience as martial artists demonstrate how versatile they are by implementing a huge array of strikes, clinches, and grapples to their hearts’ content all while having a strong brotherhood rich in allegiance, interpersonal strength, and unconditional fraternal love. Shotokan Karate vs Pankration Brazilian Jujitsu vs Mixed Martial Arts Taekwondo vs Shootfighting Judo vs Kapu Kuialua Shaolin Kenpo Karate vs Zendokai Kudo vs Kyokushin Karate American Kenpo Karate vs Bokator Sesshoumaru and Shuran (BroTP): Destructively Terrifying Executioners As the two eldest members of The Splendid Seven, Sesshoumaru and Shuran have the most experience as a pair of dynamic combatants who can combine their powers to unite as one. Sesshoumaru’s quick adaptability to any and all martial arts in terms of striking, grappling, takedowns, and clinching is well-merged with Shuran’s encyclopedic range in submission holds, chokeholds, piledrivers, and bearhugs. Every time Sesshoumaru delivers arm bars to the opponents, Shuran would assist with his signature piledrivers. Therefore, Sesshoumaru’s and Shuran’s brotherhood teems with interpersonal cooperation and reverent discipline. Brazilian Jujitsu vs Luta Livre Judo vs Vale Tudo Shotokan Karate vs Combat Sambo Taekwondo vs Professional Wrestling American Kenpo Karate vs Mongolian Wrestling Shaolin Kenpo Karate vs Pehlwani Kudo vs Ssireum Shuran, Hakkaku, and Ginta (BroT3): Ruthlessly Lethal Vanquishers A mighty Panther Yokai grappler known for his imposing size and deadly submission holds, chokeholds, and takedowns forming an empowering brotherhood with two energetic wolf Yokai strikers known for their ferocious stealth and paralysing elbow strikes, knee strikes, and shin kicks is the most legendary bond to ever happen in the martial arts world. Opponents better beware if they do not want to be at the receiving end of Shuran’s bearhugs combined with Hakkaku’s elbow strikes and Ginta’s knee strikes. Equally powerful is how Shuran’s, Hakkaku’s, and Ginta’s brotherhood is abundant in support, respect, kindness, and strength. Professional Wrestling vs Kajukenbo vs Jeet Kune Do Combat Sambo vs Muay Boran vs Lethwei Vale Tudo vs Panantukan vs Pencak Silat Luta Livre vs Pradal Serey vs Sanda Mongolian Wrestling vs Limalama vs Kuntao Pehlwani vs Okichitaw vs Hwa Rang Do Ssireum vs Yaw-Yan vs Tang Soo Do Inuyasha, Hakkaku, and Ginta (BroT3): Ferociously Bloody Demolishers It is an assembly of muscles, strength, stealth, speed, aggression, and bloodiness when Inuyasha, Hakkaku, and Ginta take to the arena to deliver extremely excruciating uppercuts, Superman punches, jabs, spinning axe kicks, elbow strikes, knee strikes, and takedowns. Combining Inuyasha’s arm bars, chokeholds, and double axe handles with Hakkaku’s clinches, headbutts, and hammer fists plus Ginta’s elbow strikes, knee strikes, and shin kicks would make for an explosive team attack to reduce their opponents into a gorily bloody mess. All bloodshed aside, these three warriors possess a loving, sweet, cute, and cuddly brotherhood. Mixed Martial Arts vs Muay Boran vs Lethwei Pankration vs Panantukan vs Pencak Silat Shootfighting vs Pradal Serey vs Sanda Kapu Kuialua vs Kajukenbo vs Jeet Kune Do Bokator vs Okichitaw vs Hwa Rang Do Zendokai vs Yaw-Yan vs Tang Soo Do Kyokushin Karate vs Limalama vs Kuntao Ayame and Shunran (BroTP): Startlingly Dangerous Exterminators There is no time to chat about pleasantries or be involved in the latest gossip, for Ayame and Shunran are prepared to unleash their jabs, palm strikes, elbow strikes, takedowns, backfists, roundhouse kicks, and spinning back kicks complete with ferocity, agility, speed, and accuracy. Opponents will not know peace should Ayame launch her uppercuts, jabs, backfists, reverse punches, front punches, hooks, and cross punches, and Shunran release her roundhouse kicks, spinning kicks, knife hand strikes, backfists, palm strikes, knee strikes, and elbow strikes. What is just as strong as their attacks is their unconditionally loving sisterhood. Hapkido vs Shaolin Kung Fu Yongmudo vs Northern Praying Mantis Kung Fu Koppojutsu vs Baguazhang Boxing vs Savate Kickboxing vs Taido Nippon Kenpo vs Aikido Shorinji Kenpo vs Capoeira Inuyasha and Ayame (OTP): Macabrely Impassioned Bludgeoners Passionate, strong, tough, fearsome, ferocious, lethal, and scary do…
