InuYasha, The Movie 3 - Swords of an Honorable Ruler

This is the third installment of one of my favorite anime’s movies. This was an amazing movie, I watched almost all the Inuyasha movies back in the day on Toonami/ adult swim and I’ve always wanted my own collection. If you haven’t seen this, it doesn’t disappoint, and if you’re a die hard Inuyasha fan you’ll love this movie.

Inuyasha is a great anime. It has 4 movies. I have yet to see the fourth movie, but of the first 3, this is my favorite and it will be tough to beat. The third movie focuses on Inuyasha and Sesshomaru's relationship, or lack there of, with their father and his swords which he handed down to them. This movie explains how Inuyasha's father met his end and reveals a secret. Inuyasha's father had 3 swords. He gave the sword of heaven which can save 100 lives with one swing to his older son, Sesshomaru. This sword is called the Tenseiga. He gave the sword of earth which can be used to vanquish 100 foes in one swing and in doing so defend mankind to his younger son, Inuyasha. This sword is called Tetsusaiga. His last sword was the sword of hell and was capable of plunging the entire earth into hell. This sword was called the Sounga. Inuyasha's father banished the sword Sounga after his death, but in Kagome's time the sword was released from its seal. Now Inuyasha and Sesshomaru must stop the rampaging Sounga before it carries out its mission and destroys all mankind. Only by using both the Backlash Wave, Tetsusaiga's Ultimate technique and the Dragon Strike, Sesshomaru's technique which he can use with the Tenseiga together can the Sounga be destroyed, but can these two siblings work together long enough to discover victory? This movie is wonderful in that it explains much of Sesshomaru's past and why he does the things he does. Sesshomaru's development in this movie is wonderful and all the other characters are not to be missed. The show may be called Inuyasha, but in my opinion Sesshomaru steals the show in the wonderful movie!

I love Swords of an Honorable Ruler. It gives the back story of Inuyasha's birth and you get to see what his father is like. I first checked out the DVD from my local library and I fell in love with it. I love Inuyasha anyway and enjoyed seeing how he came into the world. It kept me on the edge of my seat watching Inuyasha fight the power of the sword's evil that was trying to take control of him. It was even better when he had to join forces with his brother to defeat the sword and it's demonic powers. I had to have the movie and purchased it as soon as I was able. It was well worth the price and it was money well spent. If you love or even like Inuyasha, you'll enjoy this DVD.

When I first saw Inu-Yasha was the first movie(#1) and it sucked! It was poorly animated with bunch of stupid jokes, boring story, lame bad guys, cheap speial effects and so so fights. I also saw a little bit of the serie but it didn't catched my atention. BUT this movie shut my mouth! It was INCREDIBLE!! the action scenes were SUPERB! The powers were big and GREAT! the animation is HIGH BUGET like Vampire Hunter D Bloodlust! the camera shots were fast and COOL! the fights were AWESOME! the movie itself is ACTION-PACKED and the best of all! the movie is more serious. This could be the best Inu-Yasha movie because Inu-Yasha fight with his COOL brother two times, Inu-Yasha and his brother fight with millions of monsters like ONE-MEN ARMY, Inu-Yasha's friends also fight, the bad guy looks COOL, there are great dramatic scenes and the movie have a more dark setting. The bad things are that the graphics looks the same like the serie and the previous movies, and the little scene when Inu-Yasha have something ugly and lame tied to his arm. BUT that's all!! the movie is AWESOME and it's worth buying it!!!! ADIOS.

You get history on InuYasha's mom and dad w/this one which is nice. Also you get info on the swords including some team work in the family of the dog demons. English available but you should watch it with the subtitles because there is some minor differences. Great story starts with the death of daddy dog demon and the resurrection of the man who killed him,kinda. In Kagome's world the sword is unleashed and havoc breaks out. InuYasha must take the sword into the past through the well to save the future. Only problem is the sword has a mind of it's own and wants to kill'kill'kill. Kagome saves her man and the sword finds a new host and the fight is on! Sesshemoru must team up with his brother or everyone will be sucked into hell! All I have to say is BUY IT NOW, DO NOT PASS GO, DO PASS THROUGH YOUR AMAZON CHECKOUT! Even if your not a fan yet you should like this one. If you are a fan, why are you wasting your time reading my review? BUY THE DAMN MOVIE!

Very happy with my purchase! I bought it new and it arrived on time. It was completely sealed like all new DVD's should be. No problems when I played it. Being my favorite Inuyasha movie I had high hopes to sit back and enjoy it, and it did not disappoint me!! ^_^ I would buy it again! My family just loved the laughs and the suspense!

Out of all 4 of the Inuyasha movies, this is the last one i've seen. I'd been told that this movie was the best of the bunch. After purchsing it I was not dissapointed at all. As far as the four movies go, this is one of the best, although my preference still puts Movie 2: Castle behind the looking glass out on top. But this movie has top-notch animation, a pure evil brilliantly played villain and it always keeps you on the edge of your seat. I have always been a large fan of Inuyasha. Its one of my favourite anime's of all time. But i myself was disappointed with movie 1. This movie is top notch compared to it though. The first thing to mention is that Sesshomaru, one of the greatest Inuyasha characters finally takes a large role in the movie, unlike taking bit parts in the previous two. This is because the movie revolves around the 3 swords of the fang that Inuyasha's father created, and the battle for Inuyasha and Sesshomaru to destroy the Sounga, the Sword of Hell and the 3rd sword of their fathers. This also leads to a lot of detail of the back-story of Inuyasha'a birth and the love of his parents, a plot that i have been wanting to see for a very long time. The film is also presented in a graphically beautiful and impressive style. Whether its the villains hideout or the passgeway to hells grim, foreboding look, or the quaint peacefull look of the modern era, the lighting and deep coloured visuals helped portray the correct settings and moods during the movie. The action itself never lets up, it feels brilliantly paced through one fight scene, to another and the plot interwoven nicely in between. However, every silver lining has a cloud, and not all is perfect, but most is. The music is mainly well created and orchestrated, however vocal tracks like the ending songs are subpar compared to other Inuyasha songs. The voice acting for the dub is also of high quality for the key chacters, however if you get down to some of the secondary roles, such as the spirit of Sounga's sheath and Kagomes schoolfriends, the voices can make you want scratch your ears off. Also if you're a fan of other character plots, such as Sango and Miroku, there is nothing here for you. This movie (and its not a problem) focuses on the dog demons and how they must work together to overcome the Sounga. But this movie does give Miroku, Sango and Shippo backseat roles primarily used in lengthening the fight scenes, although Miroku does have a touching moment of near sacrifice for Sango's sake. If I had to choose a favourite between movies 2 and 3, i'd still go with movie 2, but this one is close to perfect that if you are an Inuyasha fan who does not own this, you are missing out on a classic pice of Japanimation. Rectify this immediately people! This movie, overall is too good to miss

I don't remember ordering this movie, as I already have it and the rest of the movies, but I love InuYasha and this movie, so why not go ahead and give it 5 stars since I don't remember? LOL Hopefully it didn't arrive like super damaged and I'm over here giving it 5 stars for their mess up. oh well.

God the whole collection so that I can watch at any time! Good condition. Brings back good memories.
