A Compassionate Heart

Posted Aug 18, 2007, 4:19:31 AM UTC

Spoilerish for Inuyasha manga chapter 471, Compassionate Heart.

I loved this arc so much that I had to make some sort of response to it. So here it is... Sess holding the lifeless Rin after Tenseiga fails to resurrect her a second time. To quote SessMom:

"Sesshoumaru, it's something you had to learn. That when your heart wishes to save someone dear to you, it must at the same time feel sadness and fear of losing them. Even when wielded as a weapon, you must understand the weight of life and carry a compassionate heart when dispatching your enemy."

So... there you go. Sess with his newly-found compassionate heart with something resembling the Meidou in the background.

Poor Sesshy! I'm glad InuMama decided to save her. I hate to think of Sesshoumaru if he didn't have Rin. I love his expression.

I believe I even favorited this on DevART and it is still touching here. <3 Lovely, lovely job, that chapter was rather impressive. Sesshomaru is an incredible character..
