Inuyasha Fans React to THAT Sesshomaru x Rin Reveal

Inuyasha fans are definitely feeling feelings after the massive Sesshomaru x Rin reveal in Yashahime: Princess Half-Demon. One of the biggest mysteries heading into the premiere on the sequel anime to Rumiko Takahashi's original Inuyasha manga series was that Sesshomaru's twin daughters would be at the center of the new story. Making matters more curious, the sequel revealed that his daughters would be half-demons yet it was not revealed who the mother of his daughters would be. This was the same for the first half of the new series, but that's all changed with the newest episode.

Episode 15 of Yashahime: Princess Half-Demon finally confirmed what many fans had been suspecting as Rin was revealed to indeed be the mother of Sesshomaru's daughters, Towa and Setsuna. After dancing around it with a series of teases in the first 14 episodes of the sequel, the episode finally cemented that Sesshomaru and Rin became a "couple" (as much as Sesshomaru can be a part of one, anyway) and had children with one another.

With such a massive reveal, it's no wonder that fans are feeling all kinds of emotions. Not only was this a confirmation of a long standing theory fans have had, but also brings up some questions about their gaps in age that Inuyasha and Kagome didn't raise. Read on to see how fans are reacting to this major reveal, and let us know what you think!

He Indeed Put a Ring on it

Unlike the other demons, Sesshomaru didn't make Rin as his mistress. He married her. #半妖の夜叉姫 #殺りん #sessrin

"If Only Kagura Didn't Die"

I am so fucking mad. In Inuyasha Sesshomaru was like a father figure to Rin (she was 8 btw) wtf. Why did they make her the mother of Towa and Setsuna? 😭😭😭😭 If only Kagura didn’t die

The Attention to Detail!

Purple Kimono:

The Noble Colour Since Ancient Time

From Rin to the twins.. they are all wearing purple/murasaki shade of color.

Only Sesshomaru can do that. 👉🏻👈🏻#半妖の夜叉姫 #殺りん#YashahimePrincessHalfDemon#sessrin #towa #setsuna

Are We Even Asking the Right Questions?

"Sesshomaru is a GROWN MAN marrying Rin!" wrong, Sesshomaru is a 500-year-old dog that makes himself look like a human because he feels like it. If we're gonna have any conversation, it should be about how Rin is a furry
