We View Yasha and Other Tales: Recent Episodes
Sean and Lindsay
In the grand tradition of One Person Who's Seen An Entire Show And The Other Person Hasn't Seen Any Of It, host Lindsay guides co-host Sean through the show Inuyasha, making pit-stops in other animes every once in awhile. Join us as she convinces him to like Kikyo, dislike Shippo, support the pairing of Sesshomaru and Kagura, and ride through some pretty intense Will-They-Won't-They.
Our hosts discuss the third Inuyasha movie and Sean abandons this episode's gimmick about 3/4s through. Included as a bonus is a bunch of Yashahime theories that, surely by now, have been disproved. And static!
(Opening and Closing Theme: "Main Theme" to Swords of an Honorable Ruler by Kaoru Wada) (Logo Design by @GeeMoree)
Sean and Lindsay discuss an episode they didn't much care for while trying not to get distracted by the amount of work they have coming up for the end of the season. Sango has a leaf on her head.
(Opening and Closing Theme: "Come (My Way)" English Version by AmaLee) (Logo Design by @GeeMoree)
A liar cons our gang into doing a bunch of chores and nuzzling up on some comfort women. That's really the episode.
(Opening and Closing Theme: "Come (My Way)" English Version by AmaLee) (Logo Design by @GeeMoree)
Erik sticks around (in spite of being afflicted by a sleeping pill) to discuss further this seaweed woman's plan to seduce a moonman. Play yer flute in hell why dontcha.
(Opening and Closing Theme: "Come (My Way)" English Version by AmaLee) (Logo Design by @GeeMoree)
Sean and Lindsay invite Erik for another Beachside Snackrifice in order to bully him into liking the show more. They threaten to turn him into glass! And... blame it on a monster!
(Opening and Closing Theme: "Come (My Way)" English Version by AmaLee) (Logo Design by @GeeMoree)
Miroku engages in futures trading and long-sells on Sango's virtue. Meanwhile, the Grima Wormtongue of the episode presumably gets away with a clutch of hypnoeggs. Eh, worth it.

The Beguiled was really missing some sort of supernatural element. Instead, it just had mushrooms. This episode brought to you by Colgate.
Wakana forever.
(Opening and Closing Theme: "Come (My Way)" English Version by AmaLee) (Logo Design by @GeeMoree)
Sean and Lindsay update themselves on the trailer, as well as some spoilery information regarding surviving characters gleaned from the poster (where Inuyasha mysteriously has his back to the audience).
(Opening and Closing theme by Claire Anne Carr) (Logo Design by @GeeMoree)
The tightrope walk of maintaining a listenable show gets a strong gust of broadside wind as Sean and Lindsay invite a guest, Erik, to the program! Listen as he tries to piece a show together from what little information he can gather from the fillerist of filler episodes!
(Opening and Closing Theme: "Come (My Way)" English Version by AmaLee) (Logo Design by @GeeMoree)
Their greatest enemy yet, Kisuke, helps some village hotties hide from Fickle Pig Man and his disappearing sidekicks. The Amazing Shelf Women guest star.
(Opening and Closing Theme: "Ready to" by Michiru Kagemori) (Logo Design by @GeeMoree)
Sean decides to make the podcast even harder to listen to by trying out a new microphone. Inuyasha kills some cute demons and feeds them to some high schoolers. And true love?
(Opening and Closing Theme: "Ready to" by Michiru Kagemori) (Logo Design by @GeeMoree)
In a lovely change of pace (that is definitely not the Season 6 premiere, no sir, not one bit, not according to at least two sources), Kagome visits home and brings adventure to a bunch of innocent people who just want to put on a learning-free festival. Pretend you're normal, Kagome, hurry!
(Opening and Closing Theme: "Ready to" by Michiru Kagemori) (Logo Design by @GeeMoree)
Is Kagome doing the right things? Is this the end of Season 5? Whose heartache? Whose courage? We discuss and discuss and find exactly zero answers.
(Opening and Closing Theme: "Ready to" by Michiru Kagemori) (Logo Design by @GeeMoree)
Kagome faces her greatest enemy yet: a baby with grabby-hands! A man is executed in the background with no fanfare.
(Opening and Closing Theme: "Ready to" by Michiru Kagemori) (Logo Design by @GeeMoree)
Sean and Lindsay briefly talk about the paltry information regarding the Inuyasha sequel before a motorcycle knocks out their recording equipment. Someone wants to silence us!
(Opening and Closing theme by Claire Anne Carr) (Logo Design by @GeeMoree)
Spoilers -- This may be a big episode! Well, not for the podcast, it's business as usual for everyone there. Otherwise, ho man, buckle your giant boomerang armslings and prepare for a facefull of emotional hell hornets.
(Opening and Closing Theme: "Ready to" by Michiru Kagemori) (Logo Design by @GeeMoree)
The giant mountain births a boss fight out of only a spooky face. The tails get shoulder pads which is how you know it's serious!
(Opening and Closing Theme: "Ready to" by Michiru Kagemori) (Logo Design by @GeeMoree)
And what a duel it was! No death yet, technically, but yknow... at least there's Pullsbury doughchildrens.
(Opening and Closing Theme: "Ready to" by Michiru Kagemori) (Logo Design by @GeeMoree)
Sean's going to forget all about this when he discusses whether or not the titles are too on-the-nose or complete lies. Warning: episode features nude murderer.

At least we think it's number 7... this tradition of the podcast has really fallen apart but let's do it anyway!
Why's the sound different?
(Opening and Closing theme by Claire Anne Carr) (Logo Design by @GeeMoree)
Join us on an incredibly somber episode of We View Yasha as a host-favorite character meets his demise... I won't say which one. Sean jinxes the whole world by saying "Things are looking up."
Special thanks to the two songs that are talked over.
(Opening and Closing Theme: "PANTA RHEI" by MYTH & ROID) (Logo Design by @GeeMoree)
A mumm-man could still be Naraku in disguise, let's not totally discount Sean's dumb theory just yet. In fact, let's just wholly believe in it because the fear rectangle inside of your home told you to.
(Opening and Closing Theme: "PANTA RHEI" by MYTH & ROID) (Logo Design by @GeeMoree)
Turns out: yes, Inuyasha was in human form when he used the sheath to call the sword back while he was trapped in the gourd in Fateful Night in Togenkyo. That doesn't make it the BEST strategy though... he's up against a snake sword f'God's sake.
(Opening and Closing Theme: "PANTA RHEI" by MYTH & ROID) (Logo Design by @GeeMoree)
Renren makes good on his promise to Ginkotsu by constructing an elaborate death scenario with limited successful outcomes. Inuyasha is tricked again by Eggman.

An important part of being a demon slayer is training how to stitch together a moss coat that could be easily seen by any passing horror bent on consuming your essence. Unless demons are color blind, like deer.

Who will win in a fight between the sexiest of men? Who will win in a fight between a goblin man and Crazy Goku? And just where the hell is A-un? These are stories for another time.

It's less of a journey and more of a knock-down-drag-out. The song Sean is talking about is The Confused and the Carefree, or as he calls it, the Ass-Grab Suite.

You heard the title -- more of that crazy vajra! Our characters fight and fight and fight and fight and eventually retreat. What did we learn from all of this? Erm... barriers.

This episode does not have an annoying little kid but it does have a sacred vajra in it, so... if you hate those...

New year, new decade, same old mistakes. Oh, and a new Season (according to the internet)! What awaits our heroes? Fighting? Probably!

Our hosts took an entire year to get through a single season of Inuyasha. "What is this, 2004 again?" No! But it may as well be...
(Opening and Closing theme by Claire Anne Carr) (Logo Design by @GeeMoree)
It depends whether or not you see them later, or after awhile. Anyway, a hottie shows himself.
(Opening and Closing Theme: "Otome-domo yo" by ChiCO) (Logo Design by @GeeMoree)
A fight constantly interrupted by fire concludes! Kagome gets in her own way and we finally see Lindsay's mysterious boyfriend! Onward!
(Opening and Closing Theme: "Otome-domo yo" by ChiCO) (Logo Design by @GeeMoree)
Sean forces Lindsay through another pointless game. Translations are so wacky!
(Opening and Closing theme by Claire Anne Carr) (Logo Design by @GeeMoree)
Suikotsu is bullied into being a bad guy.
One-hundred twenty four episodes is how long it took for our hosts to do some role playing, and it'll never happen again! This episode brought to you by How to Draw Manga, a book Lindsay just happened to have on her shelf.
(Opening and Closing Theme: "Otome-domo yo" by ChiCO) (Logo Design by @GeeMoree)
Is it really the first time? Was Sesshomaru really there? Is Suikotsu all that he says he is? Did the fire kill our gang or did the lack of oxygen do it? Is Jinenji suddenly more useless than Myoga? And then Sean embarrasses himself.
(Opening and Closing Theme: "Otome-domo yo" by ChiCO) (Logo Design by @GeeMoree)
An even more desperate situation is that Lindsay can't remember this episode a week after watching it! Marvel at Sean's ability to explain it to her while diverting to Hobbs & Shaw and Space Jam. This is the sort of quality content you tolerate!
(Opening and Closing Theme: "Otome-domo yo" by ChiCO) (Logo Design by @GeeMoree)
A week of recovery from a hangover erases Sean's ability to correctly pronounce Ginkotsu, but don't worry -- he is eventually corrected. For the record, I don't trust this Renkotsu feller.
(Opening and Closing Theme: "Otome-domo yo" by ChiCO) (Logo Design by @GeeMoree)
A man with a laugh that Sean can't imitate puts Kagome through some third-act 70s romantic comedy hell. Inuyasha runs in the wrong direction for most of the episode.

Sound problems plague this newest episode of We View Yasha! But don't worry, it doesn't last too long! As in... the episode is our shortest yet... Sorry, Miroku, and anyone who thinks this is the best episode of the show! Which there has to be at least one of you, right? You love it when Miroku gets peed on? No judgment...

Happy 100th episode, everybody! Minute 7 is where you want to go if you wish to skip past the sizzling baking talk. Otherwise, we talk about a moth battle (already in progress) and some dreams as Season 4iller kicks into high gear.
(Opening and Closing Theme: "Shadowgraph" by MYTH & ROID) (Logo Design by @GeeMoree)
It's like they made a Beatles biopic and the final scene is "Paul McCartney? Meet John Lennon." In spite of this, the episode ends up being one of the better Season 4iller offerings. Man, Richard Lester missed a real opportunity not making a movie with The Boys as powerful demons. Ringo is a total Ginta.

Our girls work together to create as many ideas for lewd fanfiction as they can. Meanwhile, Inuyasha does nothing.

COMMENTARY, you read that right! Sean and Lindsay give their real-time thoughts on Inuyasha's second movie and eventually get on the same page about Kaguya's weird clothing. Somewhere in there they pour one out for poor, poor Hachi.
(Opening and Closing Theme: "Main Theme" to The Castle Beyond the Looking Glass by Kaoru Wada) (Logo Design by @GeeMoree)
A forest fight goes on for a bit. Kagome hears a voice. Birds are dicks. Don't tell Lindsay that Sean owes her five dollars. Keep it secret, shhh.

It's another low-key episode of We View Yasha, folks, but that's okay! How about that Izumo guy, eh? Super trustworthy, am I right? Am I wrong?

Sean goes into needless detail about translation differences and Lindsay wins Joke of the Episode again. #mirokudidnothingwrong

Taking into account the deviation of every observed value from the mean, the variance and the standard deviation are sensitive indicators of the degree of variability of statistical observations. The standard deviation is simply the square root of the variance. Sean may be drunk.

We all know an actual battle between these two would last, like, two seconds, but let's be nice to Hojo. He's going to make some woman who settles for him very comfortable one day.

We're back, everybody, after a month of silence that is not acknowledged within the actual episode. Also not acknowledged is that this is our 100th recorded episode. Don't worry, we'll do a proper celebration on the 100th episode of Inuyasha probably!
WARNING: Sean name-checks Gabriela Vega incorrectly at a certain point. He begs your forgiveness.
Anyway, our gang fights a giant head.
(Opening and Closing Theme: "Yume no Hero," Denkou Choujin Gridman) (Logo Design by @GeeMoree)
Burying a cursed head under your castle with a 50/50 shot of it working in your favor is akin to, what, lighting your basement on fire to get rid of some termites? Although that one doesn't end with a blue demon hottie, so... go for it, kids.
(Opening and Closing Theme: "Yume no Hero," Denkou Choujin Gridman) (Logo Design by @GeeMoree)
Is there going to be a moment, many episodes from now, when Kagome replays the conversation she had with Ayame in this episode and realize they could have saved us half a season by just following her to the mountains? Or is it going to be more like Naraku will gain a bunch of power and the gang will find out via word-of-mouth, after many people have already died?
Aw fooey.

Sean makes Lindsay play another dumb game for reasons baffling to everyone. For a little extra bonus, there's a brief discussion of the podcast's second mascot, Chaucer.
(Opening and Closing theme by Claire Anne Carr) (Logo Design by @GeeMoree)
Kagome can't catch a break as her other boyfriend reveals HIS secret fiancé: a peppy wolf girl with her own entourage. Can't anyone just be single for a change? Also there's a hair demon or something.

Welp, Season 3 managed to out-awkward Season 2 in almost every category. But it's not all bad news! What were our hosts' favorite episodes? What were their least favorites? You know the drill, just hurry up and disagree with them already!
(Opening and Closing theme by Claire Anne Carr) (Logo Design by @GeeMoree)
What better way to ease a viewer into a new season than to revisit the modern era for some hilarious farcical fun? Do we feel sorry for Kagome by the end of it? Is Inuyasha's superhero name Hat-Dog Jumping Boy? Will Japan get aid in the form of photocopiers? Answers: guaranteed!
Boobgrabs: 1.

I mean, seriously, everything perfectly lines up with the theory that this episode is the finale. It's even the same amount of episodes as the previous seasons! Who in the hell arbitrarily decides that "No, no no- you have ONE more episode to watch this season," and totally drive me insane? No, YOU have a personality disorder.

Ladies, the way to a man's heart is to kidnap his adopted daughter because your father will kill you if you don't. Gentlemen, a way to a woman's heart is to remain so cool that you almost lose practically every fight you're in.

Koga saves Kagome from getting her organs chewed on, but more importantly, Naraku has a creepy wagon now! What does this guy do all day, decide how he can be the most off-putting?

Two contentious siblings happen upon the same plan simultaneously and race against the clock to best the other. It's like the opening of Grease, but with slightly more swords.

Our hosts discuss briefly their haul from Bakanime 2018 before diving into an incredibly dark episode of Inuyasha. Kagura shows early signs of defiance. A drag race goes on outside, and not the fun kind.

Yknow that classic line you feed a woman about how you can't stay with her until morning because you lead a dangerous life and a wind tunnel curse in your hand is going to eventually consume you and if she's nearby she'll be sucked in too? Totally works.

There's nothing like ending a season of television with a real Castor Oil of an episode. At least Sango trusts Inuyasha now.

Inuyasha buries, Miroku worries, Sango recovers and Myoga acts like a possessed Star Trek character and does things that make no sense for the sake of a Midoriko Sour. They are delicious, I'll give him that.

Miroku needs a filler episode to decide if he really wants to join this group, but don't worry, because it's a GOOD filler episode. Before recording, Sean wraps Lindsay's microphone in a giant carpet and tosses it over a bridge.

A new team member is added to our Gang! One who adds some much needed... um... horniness to the show? Sean, of course, relates to him the most. Sure, he's got a hole in his hand, BUT WHAT ABOUT THE HOLE IN HIS HEART, HMM?
There really is no explanation for Miroku's ability to ride a bike other than a talent for promiscuity.

The Ancient Magus Bride was the anime Sean was trying to remember, by the way.

Love is in the air! Kagome occupies herself with her studies and the affections of Hojo, a young man who could sincerely be suffering from Munchausen by Proxy, while a horrific monster murders everyone in her town. Our hosts weigh the moral implications of this for like, a second.
Bloodbladegate begins and Inuyasha RISES.

Sean finally takes Lindsay’s recommendation for a second anime. If looking at your Crime Coefficient raises your Crime Coefficient, perhaps it should be illegal to look at it. Although, if they made it illegal, your desire to look at your Crime Coefficient could also raise your Crime Coefficient and, by the time you looked at it, could mislead you into thinking your Crime Coefficient is higher for the wrong reasons. What else is illegal in this city, by the way?
