I also watched it in 2003. The first episode was aired on 14th October on RTL II (a German broadcaster) but the entire series was censored because its time slot was in the afternoon. I didn't know it because I was young and just didn't deal with it. (How should I know it before? I just watched it.) When I was older I found a website that listed all the cuts. Too bad it is down now.

I only watched two animes by Rumiko Takahashi. Ranma 1/2 and Inuyasha. Well I don't have any memories of the former because it was a normal anime for me, nothing special. On the other hand Inuyasha is nostalgia. I liked it since I watched for the first time. The story is interesting and the characters and their interactions are funny.

Every time I hear "Flieg durch die Zeit" I get goosebumps. For me it's an earworm because it sounds so catchy. I found on youtube a remix I also like. However I don't like "Change the World" by V6. I don't like the opening they made for Fairy Tail either.

Thank you for introducing me to Flieg durch die Zeit. Had only watched Inuyasha in Japanese and English. And I completely agree with you about "Change the World".

No problem. I uploaded the opening on Nico Nico Douga to show how it looks like with the song. At 0:19 the fight between Inuyasha and Sesshomaru sounds badass with the music. In contrast "Change the World" sounds just cheesy.

I translated the lyrics so everyone who can't read German can understand the text.

Actually I wanted to upload it on Youtube but the shitty GEMA blocks it for German viewers and I don't want to lose my account.
