What's so great about Sessrin exactly?

i just like it!!! maybe i should remove the diehard from my intro post i'm not into it as much as others here are

ok but no seriously- i just think it feels like a fairy tale, you know? the peasant orphan girl down on her luck who had a chance encounter with this immortal demon whose heart changed because of her, finding a place in the world, and then at some point in the future they fell in love and married, even though unfortunately misfortune lied beyond that. Inuyasha is the story of "A Feudal Fairy Tale" and that's just what it feels like to me, a fairy tale! something romantic that can't ever possibly happen in a modern, technological world, a romance of a world of demons and magic...

of course, i won't pretend that a big part for me is just the fact that they're Towa's and Setsuna's parents- Towa in particular being one of my favorite characters ever, i would've stanned her mom and the ship no matter who it was. i initially entered this fandom as a neutral who disliked it with a "whatever, if it's canon it's canon i'm not watching for sessrin anyways" who got more into it as i followed more sessrin accounts because of the extreme negativity in order to find pro-Yashahime stuff, it just grew on me...

i personally don't think it's the greatest ship ever written or anything like that, and i'm pretty starved for canon content as a shipper, but art and fanfics get me going by. i'll admit, it might be better to ask other shippers why they like it more, 'cuz there's some of us here who could probably write entire essays!

but that's why to me it's great. a fairy tale romance from a fantastic time, combined with being the mom of the twins. i hope that explains my personal taste, anyways!
