For those who blame InuYasha, consider the fact that he lost his mother at an early age, and had to fend for himself, how in the world do you think he would understand women, if no one was there to explain it. She had more than enough time and she had plenty of opportunities to throw on some pants and clothes that made sense, but she rarely changed out of her uniform. Are there any other things about Inuyasha that make no sense? I need to know why do you think like that? B. Nazuna. ANYONE who says Kikyo is bad in anyway is just wrong. I know she had a hard life but honestly in real life we don't give excuses like that when they try to hurt others. Tell me you wouldn't get the least bit annoyed. Where was Koga and what happened to him that we didn't get to see? Where do you get this from? When Kagome first traveled through the well, she found herself within a world very unlike the one she just left. Kagome has to go back and make everything seem normal, but how can she when Inuyasha keeps popping up asking her to come back. When Naraku first appeared in the series, he wore a white baboon cloak-like outfit that hid his face. She is mature and knows her destiny. Kagome and Inuyasha makes more sense since they're both alive. At some point in her youth Kikyō decided to pursue an occupational role as a priestess, and looked upon Kaede who also trained to become a priestess. i think the same that you but i hate kagome. I need a full and normal answer. She even teamed up with a half-demon and battled many throughout her time in Feudal Japan. *Rolls eyes*, yes, but let us remember InuYasha isn't the sharpest knife in the drawer, yet Kagome can't seem to undertand that, In the whole love triangle, i only dislike InuYasha. I don't hate Kikyo, but I'll tell you why my friend is so obsessed with Kikyo. on another note, why are so many people hating her because she "gets in the way", I don't ship often so I probably don't understand but you should ship what you want and not hate a character for "getting in the way" if it's a good character... because i dont want her to be inuyashas wife or what else.i want kagome! Does the sword get absorbed into his new body or simply disappear only to reappear when he returns to human form? Sango demonstrated an ability to change into her Demon Slayer outfit in a manner that makes it seem impossible. And as someone else said on here, it should not have been so easy to turn them against one another, but then again, I can understand how that happened too; they had both grown up to rely solely upon themselves, and trust did not come easily. Idk how old this post is, but I just finished InuYasha and I have a bone to pick. Her fans take after her.. butthurt over a parting kiss.... wow. Like the demons, they may have been separated from modern times to differentiate between the two worlds, but they may have succumbed to modern weapons as time advanced. They hate her because "Oh golly gee, she tried to kill Inuyasha!" He was a shapeshifter and as such, no one knew what he actually looked like. 6 Sango: Maturity The Noh Mask and the Soul Piper were still about, but they were lost or hidden for a long time so they were likely missed by whatever catastrophe befell the monsters of old Japan. but in one of the final acts of inuyasha Kagome hugs Sesshomaru and kisses his cheek for saving her. I don't really hate her. Kagome saw Kikyo kiss Inuyasha yet she still helps him out and also Kikyo helped Naraku out by giving all the shards that Kagome and Inuyasha collected. He writes for ScreenRant, CBR, NerdBastards, Listverse, Ranker, WhatCulture, and many other sites online. She quickly found herself embroiled in the events of the series back in Feudal Japan, which seems like a rather risky affair. I know Naraku shit on Kikyo and Inuyasha's possible love life, but this does not explain why she became a cold hearted witch most of the show. I understand Kagome was very kind and helpful too. When it shattered, its pieces flew far and wide across all of Japan, which established the setting for the series. Of course she assumed the person who killed her was InuYasha because it looked like him! To be honest, Kikyou is a woman too mature for her age, she is smart and cunning, and it was her intelligence ( when giving Naraku the shards) that made people hate her, cause they can't understand her. But oh, I didn't say that. I think that somewhere in her mind, she used him just to get out of her responsibilities as a priestess because Inuyasha is the one available and willing. I know that in the anime it was always stated by Inuyasha that Sesshomaru hated him because he was a half demon but looking back I've come to realize something in the Anime (the english dub at least) Sesshomaru never states he hates Inuyasha because he's a half demon. In the beginning I liked Kikyo but after everything I just can't stand her! Sesshomaru's Love and Naraku's Hate Inuyasha, Kagome, Sango, Miroku, Shippo and Kirara walked through the woods, searching for Naraku. Ever the fans make her life even worse... xP, Yeah the pinning him to a tree for 50 years part. It's actually selfish when I think about it now. Kagome is extremely useless she's only keeping Inuyasha from destroying a village or hundreds, and the times when she saved InuYasha's life useless junk oml. Obviously there were some behavioral differences. I get she was hurt, but she knew the circumstances eventually and still behaved like a hurt, jealous, child and I just couldn't connect with such a lame personality. I DO NOT HATE KIKIYO. Also i should add that she knew that it was Naraku that portrayed himself as Inuyasha and cut her down...but no..she did not want to believe that, she still wanted to keep onto her hatred of Inuyasha and try to make a fool of Naraku..for no apparent reason. She annoys me, and not just because I like Kagome. Little has been revealed about Kikyō's childhood, aside from the fact she was born in Japan during the Feudal Era. Okay, I believe it's time for me to clear the air, Kikyo was a priestess that was restricted from any freedom, she didn't want to change InuYasha, he wanted to be normal and Kikyo wanted to be with him. It seems plausible that he returned to his pack, but for a character who spent so long chasing after Naraku, it seemed like there was something missing when it came to his story's conclusion. All she ever wanted was just to live a life of a normal woman, but she knew she can't and she accepted her faith. Because he/she thinks that it should be KagomexInuyasha not KikyoxInuyasha. 6. Kikyo is cold. In the past, Miroku demonstrated a number of spiritual abilities with his spells, but those abilities seem to be only available to people in the past. That's all. And Kikyo lets Kagome have Inuyasha... Second Kikyo doesn't care if he's a human or half demon. "Kagome is just a burden to InuYasha who's only good for finding jewel shards" why'd you continue watching the show if you hate her? A. Thank you someone realizes she's not the same person he fell in love with! I honestly don't like Kikyo a lot and I disagree a LOT with what you're saying. The series quickly established who and what could travel through the Bone Eater's Well on Kagome's family grounds, but that list was limited. © 2006-2021 Fanpop, Inc., All Rights Reserved. Well i think InuYasha and Kagome should be a couple not Kikyo and InuYasha!!! 5. Kikyo felt way more pain than Kagome will ever have! Fangirls can easily compair themselves with her.A lot of people think Kikyo is in the way of Inu/Kag from happening. 4,611 Likes, 149 Comments - 犬夜叉 ️ (@inuyasha) on Instagram: “// Why so many people hate her :-(” ... brae.macxx. It was Kikyo. The list goes on. I don't feel like getting sucked into the arguments...I'm just going to say that most people are too immature to understand her story. Also, " fictional mass murders " hardly seems to describe him correctly either, in my opinion, because he does not always kill simply to kill and such; he does whatever he wishes to do for power, and innocent people usually get caught in between -- so they die. She's not the worst person ever but she's definitely a really annoying character. Presumably, the shards would have been safe in the present without the treat of some demon stumbling upon them and taking them for themselves. Unfortunately, one character was left out without much said as to what happened to him. B. For that, Kikyo heart was full of hatred and anger and the whole dark energy of the jewel seems to be very strong. She was selfish, self centered half the the time and yes kind hearted and misunderstood, but still dark and tainted why else would she have to completely leave the village near Mt. Because she had become dark adn impure! They want to feel needed but they also want to need. Rest assured, I don't like either Kikyo or Kagome, so I don't dislike either because of their relationship to Inuyasha. Kikyo is dead and it has been expressed multiple times that she does not belong on the earth and can never be with Inuyasha. I greatly respect view differing from mine, so long as they are intelligent and thought out. Her true soul was with Kagome so when that got taken back she was just left with fragments of her former self. Kagome is a stupid school girl who did nothing noble. I mean I do believe he would be better with Kagome, what would he do with a dried up pile of clay that uses the very souls he is trying/not trying but protecting anyway. PLEASE YOU GOTTA TELL ME! I guess the reason people hate Kikyo is because she gets in the way of Inuyasha and Kagome. Believe me I know Kagome has lots of flaws but all in all she was not afraid to admit her feelings and to let her true self out right from the start and yes she's young immature naive and gullible but she also because she's like that can love in a way Kikyo couldn't and therefore give Inuyasha what he needs so to me it came off as Kikyo just getting in the way and yessss I know the tried and true Kikyo is in the way but it is true she is in the way don't get me wrong I like KIKYO but I think maybe they should've done something different with her character instead of making her get in the way all the time that way the true Kikyo could ahve shined more and not came out to be such a villian! And yes Kagome is ditsy naive and innocent but at times she is the bravest of them all and remember SHE'S 15 at the time!! Perhaps she liked wearing it, but whatever her reasoning, it doesn't make a whole lot of sense to traipse around Feudal Japan in a short skirt. I take no answers like "Because she's a bitch" or "Because I like Kagome". She is the type that is not happy so all else must suffer. However, I DO NOT hate Kikyo. She also bothered me a lot in the first movie when she tried to justify pushing Kagome down the well by saying she doesn't belong in that time period (even though we damn well know that it's because she wants Inuyasha) AND Then went to say that she herself doesn't belong because she's dead, which is so hypocritical. Watch it again and pay closer attention while blocking out your mind only then can you understand Kikyo. She wants Inuyasha to go to hell with her becuase she feels he owes her that. She could have asked Inuyasha for an explanation (like how any normal person would) or she could have gone to her little sister sooner after her revival to clear things up but nooo, she had to make everything dramatic and tried dragging Inuyasha to hell by using his love for her again. This is one of those aspects of the series that is easily established, but it does beg the question, why did such a long period of time pass between reincarnations? My opinion is Kikyo is a vessel full of hate and a narrow minded view of right and wrong with the world she came back to. Why does everyone HATE KAGOME? Demons weren't the only creatures present throughout Feudal Japan who seem to have vanished by the present era. Also I don't really like her personality sometimes , like when she almoasted killed Kagome? Granted, they are demons and have abilities a dog wouldn't normally possess, but it seemed strange that their natural claw weapons were much more cat-like than dog-like given they are dog demons. Because Kikyo is only driven by hate and angry on Inu Yasha and won't believe him. Also Kikyo has a "strong&silent" quality that intimidates people. It seems like this is one of those things the viewers accept because there is no explanation given, but it doesn't make much sense when you think about it for more than a minute or two. Anyway, not saying how you feel about her is wrong by any means, but explaining possible reasons as to how things escalated the way they did. REALLY? Kikyo is a character that takes some delving into to fully understand and appriciate the part and role she plays in the story which is quite vital, since if it wasn't for her there wouldn't be a story at all. You think she wanted Inuyasha to be a human? Kikyo didn't trust him enough. She fell in love with him, but she can't fall in love and be with smeone because she’s a priestess and it's against her destiny. Excuse me I'm sorry but you are wrong because frankly you don't get any of the characters correctly so before you go bash one character over the other how about you true and see the faults and the pros to Each girl! Close. She's a nice girl and I'd respect her story if she didn't come and mess things up for Kagome who barely has a chance in this world, this world which has become her life. I actually like Kagome x Inuyasha better. For a priestess who's suppose to be pure of heart, she's quite the one to hold a grudge. I'm just recently re-watching the series and I stumbled upon this question when I was googling why won't Inuyasha just kill Kikyo. The go-to source for comic book and superhero movie fans. She knew, and she helped Inuyasha's group many times secretly. Kagome, honestly is a selfish, ditsy brat, in battle she just stands there 99% of the time or screaming for InuYasha like a crazed banshee. I dislike Kikyou because she tried to change Inuyasha for her own personal fitting. I do not believe she intended to be, of course, but I think she should have been more relaxed about it and allow him to make the choice, based upon what HE wanted, not what she wanted. This is one of those things that doesn't make any sense when you think about it for more than a second because we all know bikes aren't something you can simply pick up and move easily. She's noble, not self serving, and generally a lot less annoying. I'm amazed she's able to keep so much of her innonce with all the evil and sin around her! When the series began, Kagome had just turned 15-years-old and was living on her family's Shinto shrine alongside her little brother, grandfather, and mother. After she died, her soul was reincarnated in the form of Kagome, who took her place in the living world. Knowing that, it doesn't make sense that a person who was born and raised in Feudal Japan could pick up a bicycle and ride it about as if it were second nature to him. 2.he is a show off with his stupid stick. inuyasha dose not want to die so why make him and she wants kagome to die as well. I don't 'hate' Kikyo. Paradoxes form all the time based on events carried out in the past. True Kagome and Kikyo both do things all the same but InuYasha has feelings for both so if he's with Kikyo he won't forget about Kagome and vice versa. The well should have worked to allow more people or demons to make their way through it, but that simply wasn't the case. Her character development is amazing think about when she go Resurrected she was stuck in a moment in time which she hated Inuyasha and wanted to kill him she didn't know anything else she didn't know Naraku plan everything she just knew that Inuyasha betrayed her okay I do admit that some of the things she did was cruel but the way she atoned was amazing slowly and slowly we saw her goin back to how she used to be until the climax where she did the ultimate sacrifice and gave Kagome Inuyasha. I wish they didn't include her so much in the show because to be honest Sesshomaru was deeper and more interesting than her. BUT SHE WANTED TO CHANGE INUYASHA INTO A HUMAN JUST SO SHE BECOME A NORMAL WOMEN BUT IN LIFE NOTHING IS NORMAL JUST GO ON MY PROFILE AND READ MY MOTTO. This is the one thing that pisses me off the most about inuyasha fans, since most of them are children they don't understand the true depth of the story.It is too deep and dark for them andjust pick up on the simple minded stuff and commet on that. The reasons they claim she deserved the hate have been refuted over and over again, but they will be repeated til the end of time. i'm betting ur a guy so u wont get it, but if u thought u were betrayed by the person u loved most u'd want to kill em too. Kikyo is a constantly bashed anime character, though she seems to be perfect. Because she wasn't Kikyo anymore! It's quite a stupid mistake that she didn't sense that the one who betrayed her isn't the love of her life Inuyasha but another demon, Naraku. It could've added more depth and excitement to the story! Other than that, there didn't seem to be much of a point to it, rather than it being another side-story that the series could have done without. Inuyasha's story was told over the course of 193 episodes across two series, one OVA, and four feature-length films. And the resurrection of Kikyo and Inuyasha's persistence to see her, everytime she's around hurts Kagome. But I think people fail to release is that kikyo is a amazing character in the inuyasha story and here's my reason. It was Inuyahsa who kept hurting Kagome you thoughtless twit. © 2006-2021 Fanpop, Inc., all rights reserved. ; Good Scars, Evil Scars: Several of Naraku's detachments bear the same spider-shaped scar on their backs as he does.
