Blue Seed: Kushinada and her Kusanagi

For those who dont know, before Inuyasha became popular it was actually inspired by a manga that came out before it called Blue Seed, a story set in 90s Japan that mixes sci-fi and the Japanese legend of Yamata no Orochi. It released an anime adaptation a year or so before Takahashi's first issue of Inuyasha was serialized and you can tell that there were a lot on inspired ideas similar from Blue Seed! While I personally like the manga better, I love how the anime focuses more on character development and would 100% recommend for my Inuyasha fans out there!

Shoutout to Yuzo Takada, who also created 3x3 eyes and Cat girl Nuku Nuku!
