Considering that this is a weekly anime series that's under strict budget and time schedule, I think this series easily bests the best works of Disney studios.
Even as an anime that came from the land of anime - Japan, this series is exemplary in its story, and quality.
Japan has many quality anime series and movies. Likes of Hayao Miyazaki's anime have even won Academy Awards. Maybe western audiences who are not familiar with anime might be impressed with the quality of Studio Ghibri's movies, but they don't see that this series is superior in every way, except for the money and the man power that went into production compared to Miyazaki's works.
Unlike Miyazaki's anime characters, Inuyasha's characters have fully developed character. Miyazaki's characters all look the part, but that's where it stops. None of them really have anything inside. His story also progresses in an expected manner, but Inuyasha's story has unexpected turn at every step of the way.
Academy Awards committee must be blind for not being able to see the real difference. If you are going to choose the best from Japan, Rumiko Takahashi's work really deserves the prize.
Every character in this series is beautifully designed. And each one has charm of their own. What's funny is that all of them have certain character flaws that adds to the humor of the story.
One person came up with all this ? This is unbelievable. But Rumiko Takahashi seemed to have done it. She's designed the characters, put life into them, and came up with the most interesting story you can lay your eyes on.
This is truly the work of a genius. When she first brought her "Manga" into the publisher, I've heard that the editor proclaimed "This is a talent that appears once only in 20 years.". Well, 20 years have already passed, and we're still waiting for another talent like her to appear.
The word "Greatest" must be reserved for something like this. This is a classy, funny, beautiful entertainment that is at the pinnacle of artistry.
