The series previously received a stage play adaptation that ran from April-May 2000 at theaters across Japan.
The visual features visual kei rock band Golden Bomber member Yutaka Kyan (Fushigi Yugi stage play) as the titular Inuyasha.
The manga inspired a 167-episode anime series that ran from 2000-2004 and a 26-episode sequel anime titled InuYasha: The Final Act that ran from 2009-2010.
Viz also licensed and released the original anime series for DVD and the sequel series for DVD and Blu-ray Disc in 2012.
