Talk:Beads of Subjugation

Object vs. Weapon
Would anyone object to me changing this from an object to a weapon since it is technically used to subdue Inuyasha and, thus, also causes him harm by slamming him to the ground. Feel free to add any of your own opinions on the matter, please and thank you. セレナ(Rin &amp; Sesshōmaru) 03:22, November 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * Hmm, a weapon is used to cause damage to a person or a thing. I think the beads can be called a weapon. I support. No vice 7  (Talk)  06:50, November 24, 2011 (UTC)

Title
The book The Art of InuYasha, published by Viz, labels the 'Beads of Subjugation' as just 'Prayer Beads'. Since we now have an 'official' name, should this article be moved to 'Prayer Beads'. I'd love to hear others' opinions. Thanks, Ryoga (talk ) 14:43, December 30, 2011 (UTC)


 * I think it should be left as Beads of Subjugation because, while they are prayer beads, Kikyo made it so they could subdue the wearer, making them more than just mere prayer beads anymore. But, that's just my opinion. Rowan Salazar [Talk] 19:31, March 10, 2012 (UTC)

Does Inuyasha's Human form exclude him from its effect
During the series, Kagome never once triggers it while he's human. In episode 67, Miroku suggested it, but it never happened.

In the description, it only says Demon or Hanyo, implying that it was never made for Humans. Now if a Hanyo were turn human during their personal month, wouldn't that be their only means to remove them.

Here's my reason why the rosary beads can or can't work: ===CAN - In episode 67 Miroku suggests to use the Sit command on Inuyasha, if he were to run off (suggesting he thinks so). Now considering Miroku's position, he firmly believes that it'll work, just as long as the wearer has them.=== ===CAN'T - Judging from my earlier statement, the beads needs demon energy to work, which means that Human are immune. It could also be possible that Kaede told Kagome off-screen that it's useless against humans, so Kagome is careful not to say it during the night of the new moon.=== Feel free to provide your own personal reasons on this interesting topic!

Regarding the Effects of attempting to remove the beads
To be fairly honest if only the wordsayer can remove the beads and the wordsayer dies of any random causes, then will anyone who tries to take them off after the wordsayer's death be just as unsuccessful as the wearer?
