True, I did forget to mention that. I’m so used to seeing the color pages not reproduced I guess it just didn’t register. It is strange, considering that all the Shounen Sunday covers are in the back in color. I wonder if they had problems getting the original pages or something? I’ve only seen Vagabond and Fushigi Yugi. Vagabond does keep the color pages, but Fushigi Yugi’s color pages are black and white in the story itself, then reproduced in color, untranslated, in the back of the volume with the rest of the illustrations, for whatever reason.

On that subject, I really do need to pick up the Rurouni Kenshin VizBig volumes.

Good review but you forgot to mention that Vizbig Inuyasha has no restored color page at all! These pages are printed in half tone which look horrible. I own Vizbig Dragon Ball and Rurouni Kenshin. These have color pages restored in their full glory but for some weird reason, Viz decided NOT to restore color page for Inuyasha.

Good thing I flipped through Vizbig Inuyasha at Barnes and Nobles before ordering. Needless to say, I won’t be buying this lacking Vizbig edition.

Oh, that’s great! I was worried it was an element that would fall away as the focus went more and more towards the demons. It helped it stand out from other “girl sucked into the past”-type stories, since those never have anything to do with the girl keeping up with her present-day life.

If the next volume includes 4-6, you should see both more of the modern era and more back story.

Her life, and how distruptive the quest is to her schoolwork let alone personal life, continues to be an issue up until the final volume.
