U kno wat ... come to think of it, after watching the eva series i felt that Asuka did need to be dealt with, but i can see that she has been through a lot of stuff ... thats y she is like that ... same with all the choosen ones .... so i feel for Asuka and i think that she can be excempted from getting wat she would deserve.

hehe yeah. Actually I am kidding. I disliked the show too at first also. The reason I didn't like it was because the animation, action, and dubbed dialogue all seemed very mediocre through most of the first season. Actually they stay that way. However with the exception of Jaken and Shippo, I didn't find any of the characters annoying, and I'm still confused why you do.

Theres about 4 straight great episodes of Inuyasha between episodes 13 and 16, and from that point on, the show completely changes. If the episoes you saw were early ones, you shouldnt like the show. If the episodes you saw were later ones, they wouldnt have any impact because you hadnt seen the episodes before which foreshadow situations and develop the characters. Character Development is huge in Inuyasha.

Inyasha is better dubbed in my opinion, but the dub is rough in the first 10 episodes ("Toto, I don't think were in Tokyo anymore"), and some of the voice actors take time to like (kagome, Kaede). Also the dub has very annoying voices at times. Their are more jokes and they are funnier jokes in the dub.

However, I was just showing Inuyasha to a couple of friends last night, friends who were skeptical as you are. We were forced to watch the show subbed, and I realized that the show seems a lot darker, more serious, and cinematic in the subbed format. They really like the show now, and were now undecided if we are going to watch the rest on Adult swim over 80 billion years or watch the sub, which makes the series seem more mature and dark.

I really do not have any idea where in the show I saw. But it was full of cheesely jokes with annoying voice actors that, IMO, do not fit the characters. To me it is also an anime that tries to be serious and funny at the same time. But I only saw a couple of episodes so I have no idea what the show is really like besides all the bad points I do not like:

1. Voices do not fit the characters.
2. The story, from what I saw, did not grab me.
3. Full of cheesy lines and bad jokes.

Keep in mind I have not seen all that far into the series nor do I know what point I saw in the series, beginning, middle, or end I don't know.

Watch the first episode, then watch episodes 14-16, subbed. Just download them off kazaa, you shouldnt have to pay for anime you don't even like

. That will give you a real good idea for what the series is like. Episodes 12-13 are also good/dark too. The show gets better and better with almost every episode after ep 13. I've only seen the first 52 episodes (about 6 times), and I've seen that much of the show subbed and dubbed. I've heard from my friends that are in the 120's that the show does not let up and stays really good later. I'm hoping hes right cause where I am at the show is really good.

I'm a big fan of the ocean group (Inuyasha, Ranma 1/2, Escaflowne) and I notice voice actors very quickly. That being said its understandable that you might like them. In any case where the voice acting bothers you, I recommend switching over to the other language, or at least giving it a try. I have found that there if the dub is mediocre, the sub is often worth watching (Love Hina, Hellsing, Escaflowne are great examples).
