Inuyasha 

Kagome Higurashi, after being pulled down a well by a demon, finds herself in Feudal Japan, where she learns that a powerful jewel has been reborn inside her body. After the sacred jewel shatters in an attempt to retrieve it from one of the many demons who was after its power, Kagome must join forces with the half-demon Inuyasha (also after the jewel's power) to track down the shards of the jewel before its power falls into the wrong hands.
Half-human, half-demon, Inuyasha desires the Shikon Jewel for his own questionable purposes. He possesses his father's sword, Tetsusaiga, which enables him to defeat powerful opponents.

Inuyasha Syndrome 

Internet jargon which refers to any television show, movie or book series in which the main plot just continues to drag on and on and on, without any seeming end in sight. Such stories also suffer from a noted lack of character development among the protagonists as well as lazy, tedious or even nonexistent story pacing. With no satisfying resolution, such stories often test the patience of even the most understanding audience, giving the impression that the author is just making up the story as he/she goes along.

Not exclusive to anime or manga, Inuyasha Syndrome can apply to other media. Notably television shows like "Lost", movies like "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" or books like "L. Ron Hubbard's Mission Earth" series.
"The villain escaped AGAIN?! Man, this show is really suffering from Inuyasha Syndrome..."

Inuyasha 

A great anime on adult swim that takes place in feudal era japan. It centers around a modern japanese school girl named Kagome a half demon named Inuyasha a lecherous monk Miroku a young fox demon named Shippo and a demon slayer named Sango . This show has a few flaws but it's great overall. It does however receive A LOT of crap for its length
My opinion it's a damn good show and to all you haters get a LIFE.

InuYasha 

1. The hit anime/manga series by Rumiko Takahashi that focuses on a half-demon named Inuyasha and his companions as they fight to collect the shards of the Shikon no Tama (Jewel of Four Souls).

2. The main character in the hit anime/manga series by Rumiko Takahashi. Inuyasha is half-demon, half-human, and seeks control of the sacred Shikon no Tama in order to become a full-fledged demon.

"Impatient and self-centered, he was in love with Kikyo, a priestess of the Jewel."

Inuyasha has an inferiority-complex towards his older half brother (and full demon) Sesshomaru, as well as some sibling rivalry involving the sword Tetsusaiga Inuyasha inherited from their father.

The name 'Inuyasha' comes from the words 'inu', meaning dog, and 'yasha', which is a forest-spirit.
"'Inuyasha' is also a rare name." - Kappei Yamaguchi, Japanese voice of Inuyasha

British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.

Pee Calculus

When you have to pee in a movie but don’t want to miss anything, and must do the following mental equation: will the amount I have to pee cause enough discomfort to diminish my attention capacity for the remainder of the movie to an extent which is greater than the amount of the movie I would miss by making a mad dash to the restroom.
I saw Satantango last night, wonderful film but by the 5th hour I had to start doing pee calculus.
