Final Thoughts: Tomohane.

I guess I'm not done with Inukami. At first I lived in dreadful fear of Tomohane. Why? One word. Chibi-usa. I was so afraid that the manga and anime would be taken over by her. However Tomohane was sparingly used, and when she did show up, it built the story and made it much better. It turns out Tomohane was handled quite respectfully. There were several occasions in which she could have been the victim of serial perversion but the writers instead took the high road. Even in the movie when she broke character and tried to take her shirt off like everybody else was doing, Nadeshiko made sure that didn't happen. Tomohane was really the breakout star. She I think that could do well in her own series. Provided that the writing is as good as Inukami's was and doesn't turn into a minutes long transformation sequence with recycled minutes long attacks stock shots with only a minute or so of actual story that will be forgotten by the next episode.
