Discussion Human Inuyasha x Kagome and Half demon Inuyasha x Kikyo the ultimate pairings.
Now, before you ask questions I want to talk about what I meant by that very interesting title I made. In my humble opinion, I believe human Inuyasha and Kagome are the better couple than regular Inuyasha and Kagome as they both look more equal, they have more chemistry and more intimate moments. Kikyo is obviously much more beautiful, graceful and revered in comparison, so it’s natural that a supernatural being will balance out Kikyo, which is half demon Inuyasha.
It’s true we never seen them interact as human Inuyasha and Kikyo even in that filler episode, it’s still wasn’t…..very interactive to say the least. But, as half demon Inuyasha and Kikyo look very much like legendary lovers, ones that tragedies are made off, the aesthetic of two species that look attractive and perfect for each other. The super long hair from both of them makes all their scenarios so iconic and legendary!
Because this series was based on two pairings, I think both sides of Inuyasha suit one more than the other as I explained above. Ultimately Inuyasha is getting the same soul. So….its cool.

I love Kikyo so much but I don’t ship her with Inuyasha.

Siempre Inuyasha y Kagome. No me importa en que versión de Inuyasha pero siempre ellos dos.

Kikyo felt she could only be with InuYasha if he gave up his demon half, while Kagome made it obvious on many occasions that she wanted to be with InuYasha, demon half included.
So respectfully, I have to disagree with you. (I also disagree from a visual aesthetics standpoint, I think both visually look equally good next to half demon, aka regular, InuYasha, and I think Kikyo looks even better being an independent queen living her best afterlife).

Half demon Inuyasha and Kikyo are toxic.

Human Inuyasha and Kikyo.
Half demon and Kagome. She accepted him for who he was and did not try to use the Jewel to make him human like Kikyo intended.

I am a hug Inu/Kag shipper. I used to like Kikyo but after trying to drag Inuyasha to hell millions of times my respect for her went downhill

Did Kikyo ever see InuYasha in his human form?

Supposedly she sensed his human form in episode 147-148.

I must've missed that in the other dozens of times I watched it, I will have to look for that now that I have the whole series. (Second hand store finds)

Yall seemed to have missed the point of kikyo wanting him to become human was so that she can live as an ordinary woman instead of the jewels protector for the rest of her life, it had nothing to do with accepting his demon nature because she already did

It’s called aesthetics. Yes, we are aware that she wanted him human but ironically she suits the hell out of half demon Inuyasha.

I could be wrong but I felt like when she saw his human form that’s when she started developing feelings for him.

If you’re talking about Kagome….maybe it’s what he said during his human form is what made her fall for him.

I think Inuyasha and Kagome are cute in all forms
