Shippou, alternate spelling
Shippo, is a character on
Adult Swim's Inuyasha. Although he was added for cute comic relief it is found many just want to crash in his cranium. Others wish to hug him.
After his father was killed by the 'Thunder Brothers' (his mother was never mentioned) he tried vainly to get revenge. He was stopped by Inuyasha and
Kagome who later defeated the two brothers. He now travels with Inuyasha and Kagome and the other main characters.
