Although they are two completely different works, Inuyasha and Ranma 1/2 They agree on one point: the two protagonists do not admit until almost the last moment that they are in love. But why are you so proud? Here comes the official statement from author Rumiko Takahashi.
Even though Inuyasha’s mangaka is busy with one “hellish” schedule, she still managed to answer a few Questions from his fans on social media. In fact, Takahashi recently opened an official Twitter account where he shares illustrations and interacts with fans of his work.
The author was asked why her characters have a hard time Admit that you love someone; the answer was more than exhaustive. “I think the moment the male and female protagonists of a manga say ‘I love you’ is the exact moment when their story ends. For this reason, it is important that they do not put that feeling into words.”
“If they don’t say so, sometimes they can’t make an emotional connection or cause misunderstandings. The protagonists may wonder, ‘This person is standing in front of me, but I don’t know how they’re feeling.’ something that makes you think, ‘maybe they really like me’ and it’s such a happy time. “
“I love you is not something that can only be expressed in words. I want my readers to be able to understand for themselves when two characters are in love. But I built my stories in such a way that the protagonists themselves do not recognize everything. ”.
Have you ever noticed this detail in Takahashi’s stories? What do you think of his reflection on love? In the meantime, an Inuyasha x Steve Aoki clothing line has been born.
