Re:Disagree
I never said Sesshōmaru adopted Rin. Just because I say he's like a "father"-figure to her, doesn't mean he's actually her father. It means he has that same protective role. Again, this is just a case of misinterpreting what other people have said and assigning meaning to their words which they themselves have not given them. I'm the one who said that he was her guardian, so you need to go back and re-read the conversation on both pages. And I certainly never said Rin was adopted, you can look at Rin's history for yourself and see that I always revert that kind of fanon. Although I will point out that adoption has existed for thousands of years, possibly since the beginning of time. It even exists in other, non-human species. It doesn't require paperwork; your distinction between being a "ward" and being "adopted" is mere semantics. However, despite the overlap in most cases, we can only consider Rin as a ward because she was not "officially" brought into Sesshōmaru's home (not that he has one); she just follows him around and he protects her. And Sesshōmaru's feelings towards humans have not changed in the slightest. Just because he tolerates some of the main characters in the series doesn't mean he likes humans. And it is far-fetched no matter how you look at it; besides her being his ward, Sesshōmaru isn't the type to develop romantic feelings for anyone...ever. Much less act on them.--Lord Hyōga Tree of Ages 18:40, August 8, 2013 (UTC)

" I am going to have to seriously disagree with you on the fact that Sesshomaru was a 'father' figure to Rin when 'adoption' didn't exist back in those days. Children who became orphans and were taken in by another adult became wards not 'adopted daughters or sons'. "

Bullshit. There is another character who was raised by an adult not his blood parent...Miroku. And Mushin is VERBALLY ACKNOWLEDGED by the other characters as being Miroku's foster father. If Mushin can be Miroku's foster father why can't Sesshomaru be Rin's foster father?

"Also I do agree with the other person, Sesshomaru was a guardian to Rin which is more suited for his image as a 'Father' figure is truly over doing it for his image."

Bullshit. Inuyasha and Kagome are Shippo's guardians and he doesn't obey them and they don't appoint him babysitters. Sesshomaru appoints Rin babysitters and she is obedient to him, plus it was proven not to be a romantic thing in nature when Rin was turned into a Sesshomaru/Kagura SHIPPER.

"That is how it was shown in the series also adopted children who were adopted by another usually address the adult as 'papa' which Rin never did"

Incorrect. Mushin is verbally recognized as being Miroku's foster father and yet, Miroku never once addresses Mushin as "father", he calls him "old man".
