this is like THE overlooked sesskag interaction of all of them but i totally get it bc it truly just seems like filler BUT
it’s 100% canon. and what gets me is that sesshoumaru makes to leave but kagome says wait and he STOPS and he LISTENS and actually responds to her like we all know sesshoumaru doesn’t respond to nobody he doesn’t want to lmao and it’s just nice to see how much their dynamic has shifted and i Love it
Okay but every single anime I watch I always think “Kagome could take them” whenever there’s an OP final boss. Either Kagome or a Hispanic mom with a flip flop
GIRL i actually got on my laptop for this bc i got so excited jnafjdknas
idk about instant bffs but i do think there’d definitely be a deep connection. it’s been a good while since i read the chapter tbh but there’s a particular scene that is just so profound to me that it just takes my breath away. just like mayu and jinenji, the hitomiko chapters revolves around kagome’s determination to save someone who needs help and THIS PART RIGHT HERE
HER SQUEEZING HITOMIKO’S DEMON HAND LIKE THAT? CHILLING. “I won’t stand by and watch someone suffer” GODDDDD if hitomiko had lived without a doubt i’m sure she would have felt for kagome the same way mayu and jinenji did like this isn’t light at all.
i think she would have been the perfect mentor for kagome tbh!
Thank you thank you!😁 see me personally, i’ve always liked it just bc their dynamic to me is SO fun. Minus the lord he killed when he was first introduced, kagome is the first human sesshoumaru actually interacts with and from the get go she just gives him hell LMAO and to see them go from that to sesshoumaru saving her of his own accord…. too good. Waaaaay too good. That’s why i jump between platonic or romantic sesskag so much bc it just works well either way dndjdjd
But anyways YES I totally get that—the better you understand their characters the more you realize hey. They actually compliment each other pretty well! And i’m happy you’re here too bc this is one damn good ship and once you start there’s no going back🤧💓
