DVD Reviews of Inuyasha - Season 4 Box Set
DVD Review: Personally, I like the Off-Topic, Lighter Episodes
Summary: 5 Stars
Alright, let me start off by saying:
I bought this DVD set from Best Buy, and paid... I think 95.00 for it. BUT.. i thought it was because it came with "Miroku's Prayer Beads" A little re-creation of the beads Miroku wears around his right arm. They were fun to play with, and if I bought them, I would have paid 12.00 for them... so all in all, i didn't feel too jipped by the price of this season.
Anywhoo.. I saw a lot of negative complaints about this season, and here are my thoughts:
Yes, this Set contains about 18 episodes or so. This was the biggest dissapointment to me BECAUSE.. the bulk of the episodes were really light-hearted and silly. In most of the seasons i feel i HAVE to watch episode after episode because they end so abruptly, in the middle of a fight. These episodes stand alone very well, and there were no Naraku heavy episodes (since he was in hiding). The reason this is my favorite season is because of that. I wish it was a longer season, but im glad that the episodes weren't all linked together to the point where you have to keep watching and watching.
Long story short:
- If you wanted a LOT of episodes for your money, you will be dissapointed.
- If you like episodes that are more up-beat, cute/silly, or back in the "present" time, this is a great set for you!
I love my prayer beads though... i've not seen any others for sale, so im wondering why I got some on my Season 4 set o_o; Maybe it was Viz's way of making up for the lack of episodes, lol!
DVD Review: Not as strong as the previous Inuyasha DVD box sets
Summary: 2 Stars
This Inuyasha box set contains four DVDs, and has all eighteen episodes that comprise the fourth season of the series. The first two discs contain five episodes, the third disc contains four episodes, and the fourth disc includes four episodes and the special features.
The first special feature is labeled as "Character Introductions." This is a roughly three-minute piece that introduces the characters of Kagome, Inuyasha, Kikyo, Sesshomaru, Myoga, Shippo, Miroku, Naraku, and Sango (although Sango is never mentioned by name). By seeing the characters that are featured in this piece, as well as the footage used in it, I assume this was put together after the first season of the series. It feels like this feature was included because they needed something to fill out the special features menu. The thinking that probably went into this was that since this wasn't used for any of the previous box sets, to go ahead and throw it on here to say there are three special features instead of two.
The next feature is "Textless Openings." These are textless versions of both of the openings that appear on this box set, and they are put back-to-back as one piece. However, the textless version of the first opening already appeared on the box set for the third season, so it seemed rather pointless to include it here as well.
The last feature is "Textless Endings." Just like the "Textless Openings," this includes textless versions of both of the endings that appear on this set. The textless version of the first ending already appeared on the box set for season three, so I question why it was included.
This particular season of Inuyasha didn't seem to progress the story much, if at all. While some of the episodes were entertaining, they really weren't that important to the overall story. This was rather disappointing, especially after all of the character development and story progression that took place during the third season. In a lot of respects, the fourth season of Inuyasha feels more like a "filler" season than anything else.
If you're a fan of Inuyasha and want to have all of the episodes on DVD, then you need to acquire this set. However, I'm not entirely convinced that this particular set is worth the retail price (as of this writing, the set is retailing for around $90, which is the same price as the first three sets).
DVD Review: INUYASHA SEASON 4 BOX SET
Summary: 4 Stars
THE ITEM ARRIVED DAYS BEFORE I EXPECTED IT, IT WAS IN GREAT SHAPE EXCEPT FOR THE PACKAGE, WHICH WAS STRICTLY THE US POSTAL SERVICE'S FAULT FOR FORCING IT INTO A MAILBOX WITH TONS OF OTHER THINGS WHICH CAUSED TO PACKAGE TO CRINKLE AND RIP BUT AS FAR AS AMAZON AND THE COMPANY THE SHIPMENT CAME FROM I was very pleased. THANK YOU!!! DVD Review: Inuyasha Season 4
Summary: 5 Stars
It was in excellent condition when I got it and I was very please with it coming before the promised date.DVD Review: Now take a step back and think about this...
Summary: 5 Stars
After reading a lot of the reviews people complain about how the season was short and it was mainly fillers. Well, they're right. But, look at the storyline so far. Naraku had dissapeared. They make the season all fillers because the creators wanted to show how much time is passing that Naraku had dissapeared. It gives our heroes some time to rest and provides time for some more InuYasha and Kagome moments. I thought this was one of thier best seasons and a good way to make an easy transition into The Band of Seven episodes. This whole season is just a way to measure time. So, stop complaining that the season is just all fillers. It's supposed to be that way.
Description of Inuyasha - Season 4 Box Set
Come along for a timeless adventure in season four of INUYASHA! Modern-day schoolgirl Kagome and half-demon Inuyasha and friends continue their quest through feudal-era Japan to find and vanquish the evil demon Naraku and gather all the shards of the Shikon Jewel. Along the way, they are befriended and bedeviled by an array of characters: Koga of the wolf-demon tribe, mischievous magic-wielding monkey sprites, and an old-lady exorcist of questionable abilities.Bilingual: English dub and Japanese with English subtitles.
Clean opening and ending.
Special footage (20-25 mins.)
As Rumiko Takahashi's "Feudal Fairy Tale" continues, the main storyline about recapturing the fragments of the Shikkon Jewel recedes and shorter adventures come to the fore. At the end of season 3, Inu-Yasha destroyed the magical barrier protecting his enemy Naraku: the evil demon fled, leaving no trail. Naraku's absence allows dozens of minor demons to emerge from hiding and cause problems that Kagome, Sango, Miroku, Shippo, and Inu-Yasha must undo. An eccentric exorcist tangles with Miroku and the imprisoned spirit of a lovely princess; the demon Orchidayu creates fake Shikkon Jewels in an effort to strengthen his servants. Some of the adventures take a comic turn. When Kagome's younger brother develops his first crush on a classmate, he asks Inu-Yasha's advice about how to approach the girl. (Asking the terminally insensitive Inu-Yasha for romantic advice is about as sensible as asking a vegetarian how to cook a pot roast.) A shape-shifting raccoon spirit impersonates Miroku so accurately, he gets the lecherous monk in trouble with the women of two villages. By this point, the characters in Inu-Yasha have become so familiar, their antics feel entertaining even when they don't really advance the plot. Although this package is labelled Fourth Season Box Set, the opening animation and song change after episode 95, suggesting there's some overlap. The Deluxe Edition (ASIN# ) includes a model of Miroku's prayer beads (a Buddhist rosary) in aqua plastic. (Rated Teen: suitable for ages 13 and older: violence, grotesque imagery) --Charles Solomon
