I didn't actually hate this show for the first arc(?), like 15-20 episodes. It was an enjoyable, if generic, setting and Inuyasha was actually kind of an asshole. Then there is a big fight with the big bad, which ends up "inconclusive" and the show just spirals downward from there. Next thing you know there are all these characters that almost never get used, a whole bunch of stupid plot points and no character development at all. Then after 193 episodes you don't even get a real ending out of the show. | I didn't actually hate this show for the first arc(?), like 15-20 episodes.

Sum it up in a Sentence:
A modern day schoolgirl falls down a well and finds herself back in time in the Warring States era where monsters and evil humans struggle for control of a magical jewel that grants ultimate power.
Main Description
Kagome Higurashi seemed to be just a normal teenage girl until a monstrous youkai suddenly appeared and pulled her down an ancient well, which somehow caused her to time travel 500 years into the past. There she discovers that she is the reincarnation of a dead shrine maiden who once fought to protect the magical Shikon Jewel from youkai and humans who wanted to claim its immense powers. Although that shrine maiden took the jewel to the afterlife with her when she died, Kagome was reincarnated with it and has now brought it back from the future, leading to a new conflict. When the Shikon Jewel is accidentally shattered and its pieces spread across the land, the resposibility falls to Kagome to retrieve them all. Being unable to defend herself in this era of wars and monsters she reluctantly enlists the aid of Inuyasha, a doglike half-youkai. Inuyasha wants the Shikon Jewel for his own ambitions, but a magical binding allows Kagome to subdue him with a single command and thus keep him on a tight leash.
Inuyasha and Kagome are eventually joined by more companions in their quest: Shippo - a childish fox youkai, Miroku - the least virtuous Buddhist monk ever, and Sango - a professional youkai slayer. Together they travel across Warring States-era Japan searching for the pieces of the jewel and battling against those who want to use the jewel's power for evil.

Personal Opinions
IShallRiseAgain
Terrible show that manages to get good ratings due to teenage girls.
Mountaineer
This is a charming fantasy adventure series. I rather like it myself, but I understand those who don't. The big downside to Inuyasha is that it's way too long with too much filler. The final season is actually pretty good because it condenses the last four years of the manga into only 26 episodes, somehow without seeming rushed.
OldTimeyProspector
I want to remind everyone that Inuyasha is so bad that even when it was Cartoon Network's biggest late-night show, they made advertisements specifically just to mock it. This show is a turd, for real.

That last sentence is completely untrue, linall. The ending resolves basically everything.
