I've never seen Inuyasha. It was only nominated once (Lori?) so someone make a case for it.

Deadwood, I got covered. Possibly the greatest show HBO's ever done (some might argue that The Sopranos is better), Deadwood has a slew of awesome characters. Al Swearegen, Trixie, Sol Starr, Seth Bullock, Alma Ellsworth, Mr. Wu and that little bitch you just want to strangle, E.B. Farnum.

Deadwood



vs.

Inuyasha



Poll will open tonight at 10:30 CST and close Wednesday at 10PM CST!!!

The best of Deadwood - NSFW

[National Champion Chris Cole]

Deadwood was one of only three shows I nominated. I'll vote for that show to the end and I only saw Season 1. Season 2 and 3 are on my Netflix queue but I also have a million movies on it so I'm not sure when I'll watch the rest of that show.

I'm sure Inuyasha will lose this matchup, but for the moment I have the glory of seeing it beat Deadwood 2 to 1. I don't know who else voted for it, but thank you.

To summarize, it's the tale of a young girl named Kagome who travels back from modern day Japan to the feudal era through an old well, and battles evil while looking for fragments of the sacred jewel shard (which she herself shattered) with her half-demon companion Inuyasha. Kagome is also the reincarnated soul of Kikyo, Inuyasha's old girlfriend and original protector of the jewel who died but is brought back to life early in the show, creating a very strange love triangle. Traveling with Kagome and Inuyasha are a lecherous monk named Miroku, a demon slayer named Songo and her weird little cat beast Kilala, (Miroku and Songo eventually have a little love thing going on too), and a fox demon named Shippo. They're all battling against this evil half demon named Naraku who wants the jewel for himself, and has wronged each of them in some way. There is also a whole side tangent with Inuyasha's brother Sesshomaru, who is a full demon, and wants the sword that Inuyasha got from their father, Tetsaiga. Tetsaiga incidentally can supposedly slay a thousand demons with a single blow if you know how to weild it, which Inuyasha eventually learns. Sesshomaru's sword is Tensaiga, and has the power to bring the dead back to life. So there are fight scenes, love issues, family in-fighting, lives in peril, everything a good drama needs.

Wow, within 7 short hours, it's down 7 to 2. Fun while it lasted.
