 A television anime sequel to Rumiko Takahashi's InuYasha franchise was announced by Shogakukan on Saturday. The sequel, Hanyou no Yashahime: Sengoku Otogizoushi (Yashahime: Princess Half-Demon), will premiere in Fall 2020. An official website also opened, revealing a teaser visual (pictured) and production staff.Synopsis The daughters of Sesshomaru and Inuyasha set out on a journey transcending time! In Feudal Japan, Half-Demon twins Towa and Setsuna are separated from each other during a forest fire. While desperately searching for her younger sister, Towa wanders into a mysterious tunnel that sends her into present-day Japan, where she is found and raised by Kagome Higurashi's brother, Sota, and his family. Ten years later, the tunnel that connects the two eras has reopened, allowing Towa to be reunited with Setsuna, who is now a Demon Slayer working for Kohaku. But to Towa's shock, Setsuna appears to have lost all memories of her older sister. Joined by Moroha, the daughter of Inuyasha and Kagome, the three young women travel between the two eras on an adventure to regain their missing past.

| Congratulations to the fans of the franchise, and to the creators of course! Happy 20th Anniversary for Anime too! I’ve been seeing a lot of “Inuyasha: Next Generations” (lol) but I’ll be hoping this’ll not ultimately turn out to be like that. Good to see that Sunrise will be helming the show for this round too. Seriously about time I check this, and what better time than in advance to the sequel I suppose. |

| I'm somewhat excited because it's sequel, but somehow not really. I'm sorry I cannot explain such a weird feeling regarding to this news. Edit: It seems like Inuyasha and Kagome will also appear on the anime because both seiyuus announced that they will resume their roles http://www.ota-suke.jp/news/256131 |

| I actually had a dream like two years ago that InuYasha will come back with a sequel involving some kids. Damn. Gonna look forward to this! Genuinely warms my heart seeing one of my favorite series is coming back for a sequel! |

| I'm so happy to see my favorite anime continue. However way it goes, I'm excited to see what's to come as Rumiko's work is always the best! |

lov3lymj said: Not sure how to feel about this, especially due the fact the mom is probably Rin. First thing I thought when I saw the news, I'm hoping really hard that it is not Rin. Other than that, Inuyasha was a series that I loved, I truly keep it as a treasure in my heart, was one of the very first series I watched and I am even rewatching since is now available on Netflix. I guess this was good timing! However, I really hope is enjoyable and not silly and hollow, because I don't think it was necessary... Let's see how it goes. Trying not to have expectations! |
| Excited af for this. Lol the biggest question about this will be who is Sesshomaru's wife, Rin most likely since it says half demon twins but let's wait and see. |
 |
| Sesshoumaru having half demon kids is surprising. I mean, after all this time pestering Inuyasha for being a half-breed. Kind of ironic. |
 |
| Woah I'm not even aware that Inuyasha got a sequel. I see Sesshomaru's daughters are the MC's. But is Rin the mother? Did he really raised a waifu for himself?? |
| So Rumiko Takahashi is only doing the designs. First impression - sounds like one of these 'Disney-ish' direct-to-video sequels with cookie cutter next gen. Any news on who the writer is? |

I don't have any hopes after realising that the majority of fans in JP ship them romantically, there was a 10k post saying 'it better be rin'. Inuyasha as a whole and Seehomaru will never be the same for me, it makes me sick. There was also that weird, sickening drama CD where he proposes to her that a lot of fans take as canon (even the the author wasn't involved). Rin is the only human he cared for ... First of all, this is feudal japan, women married as young as 16 during this period and this is the country where the age of consent is of that age too Secondly, Rin was between 11-12 at the end of the series, so it's not odd to think that after a few years of living with her own kind, she'd still be drawn to Sesshomaru....Their relationship was never this father-daughter type of thing either so you guy's head canon can just miss me with that lol And lastly, yall are crying over the age difference when for one, not only is Sesshomaru physically 19, but this is LITERALLY how Inuyasha was born. Their dad is hundreds of years old and he married and conceived with a woman who was probably in her early to mid 20's. |
Tokoya said: this is feudal japan, women married as young as 16 during this period and this is the country where the age of consent is of that age too Isn't sex consent set at 13 ? |
| Inuyasha,an anime that receive complete adaptations still receive sequel after all these years. No Game No Life still crying. |
| I just hope it is good. Boruto was a massive disaster and I don't want anything like that happening with the Inuyasha franchise. Please Anime God, let this be good and not just a ploy to milk the franchise and the fans. |
lov3lymj said: Demons outlive humans and if they stayed together he would eventually see her grow upNot sure how to feel about this, especially due the fact the mom is probably Rin. |
 |
| This is interesting... But worrying at the same time... :') I know the age gaps doesn't really mater since it's demon and human.. but since i see Rin as a child when she first appears, it's.. let's just say i'll feel weird if it's confirmed that Rin is the mom.. :') Next thing is... The three doesn't seems close with the parents??? Where the heck are they.. lol |
 I'm starting to get embarrassed by my own forum signature line.. XD |

It's pretty laughable how you don't notice that our problem is not the age difference or age of consent, but the fact that Sesshomaru shouldn't be attracted to someone that he's withnessed growing up from a little (8 year old) child to a teenager I guess. Inuyasha's mother and his father by all what we know could've met when she was already an adult. What could be a problem there? But the situation with Sesshomaru and Rin is very different. |

| Lol, where did this come from? Not that I'm complaining, I love Inuyasha after all. Will most definitely check it out. |
| The Mother of the Twins BETTER BE Rin! The only thing other than Tenseiga that Sess was ever attached to. Did I ever say Sess was my crush back in the days? InuYasha was the first anime that ever made me cry. So, I do have a lot of emotional attachment to it. Also, Kanketsu-hen was a masterpiece. |

lov3lymj said: So by this logic, if I were to take care of, protect and buy things for and visit my girlfriend, that means that shes just daughter to me?

Their dad is hundreds of years old and he married and conceived with a woman who was probably in her early to mid 20's. Listen, I don't give 2 shits about agegaps, I'm German and it doesn't matter wether it's feudal Japan or not he met her when she was 8, they spent 2 years travelling together. He took care of her, be protected her, he adored her. Afterwards he brought her gifts and frequently visits. It's perfectly valid to feel grossed out by this bc he did come off as a father/guardian figure in her life but suddenly a few years later he screwed her? My problem is that it paints their connection and development within the anime in a very creepy, ugly light. It lies somewhere btw 10 years later he'll be screwing her and get your hands off, she's 8. If he met her at 14 I wouldn't give 2 shits but 8, no. Clearly I have been going about my relationships wrong *derp* Get your head canon out of here please (And for the last time, she was 11 at the end of the series) If we do some basic calculations, for Towa to have been adopted by Kagome's brother's family, that means that at the very least, 10 years would have have to gone by since Japanese men at the very least, get married in their 20's straight up to their 30's, in which this case, Rin would have at the very least, been 18-20 years old since shes only a year younger than Kagome's brother, which in turn would make her physically the same age as Sesshomaru (He's physically 19) |

| OMG I can't believe this is actually happening !!! YAAAAYYYYYYY |
| Whoa, this is so nice. I loved both Anime of InuYasha. Looking forward to it besides felling a bit strange that the mother of Sesshomaru's daughter could be Rin. And seeing InuYasha getting a sequel after all these years gives me hope that someday Spice and Wolf will receive a sequel too. |

Genuinely warms my heart seeing one of my favorite series is coming back for a sequel! Start a cult, this very second! Another Oracle enters the world. I was really hoping it would happen someday, and it actually did. I mean what were the chances?! Witnessing my far-fetched dreams of a sequel come to real life made it even better seeing this news. |

You are basing the shit on the fact you believe they were romantically involved when she was a wholeass child back then. If that's the case him bringing her presents and 'courting' while seeing her grow up is even more gross and disgusting. It basically means he fell for a 8 year old child. But thankfully non of their interactions screamed, 'imma fuck you in the future'. What else is she? Explain your narrative, what is it that we don't see? Bc so far it's getting worse and all you do is talk HOW OUR NARRATIVE IS WRONG. And wow, look at you projecting your own personal morals, ideals and head canon again, is that all you can say at this point lol? There's tons evidence to prove you wrong even and yet you're still out here spouting the same political shit xD But then again, when you're agreeing with someone who's argument is literally "Buying her things, protected her, cared deeply about her and visits her = Shes like a daughter to him" Then Idek why I'm even bothering responding to you all |

Bc so far it's getting worse and all you do is talk HOW OUR NARRATIVE IS WRONG. There is a thing called "Growing to love someone", Sesshômaru protecting and taking care of Rin doesn't mean he loved her when she was 8, it doesn't mean he loved her when she was 11, and it doesn't mean he loved her when she was X years old. However, he seemingly started to care about Rin the more the time passed, so he could have developed his feelings into love for her, who knows. There is also a thing called "Getting kids without 'romantically loving' the partner". We are talking about Sesshômaru, and he's a Demon, so I say it's purely and utterly speculative to claim we know exactly how he's feeled towards Rin. The Mindset of a Demon could something completely... out of this world. However Rin is a Human girl, and what do we know about Human Girls? They have a tendency to develop feelings for older guys. Especially if they're kind to you, protective and well... Sesshômaru is Sesshômaru, what else do you need? My speculative guess is that as the years went by and Rin got older, she started to realize what kind of feelings and love she had felt Sesshy. And Sesshy either being more indifferent in terms of "Romantical Love", just happening to "be there"/ going with the flow when it was time for the act. Or after being long time in this "long distance relationship" he started to notice that something was missing. |
