What exactly is sesshomaru's fluff?

its his tail...gyeez u didn't know that? ive watch inuyasha since i was 7!

Uh... it's not his tail. It's a sign of, well not royalty, but he is pretty high-class. Most other members of his family have their own fluff, but it's also used as a weapon and as defense. He has used it in the past to inpakken, wrap around foes LIKE a tail, but if u re-watch it you'll see he uses his hand to control it, like a whip, if if were his tail why couldn't he control it like my dog can? He has also used it to block attacks. Even Jaken knows it's not a tail, when they are flying, with Rin on A-Un and Jaken on his fluff, he says, "These pelts feels so good..." Also, it doubles as an accessory :)

"But if it's just fluff, how does it protect him?" Well probably it is the pelt of another demon of something else powerful.

the fluff of fluffy (most people like me call it fluffy) is sesshomaru's tail. he uses it in battle but he doesn't use it to much. its also very sensitive. as u can tell in the picture

It is a vacht, bont pelt that is apart of him, of it's a seperate demon that he controls.

Now this may not be an absolute fact, but come on, if it was his tail then don't u think it would be connected to his actual tail that only appears in his transformed state, as shown below?

It's His Tail

It's his fluffyness!!!!!!

Its supposed to be a parasite of something. Like the same fluff he has when in his doggy form of whatever they call it. No its not his tail T__T

maybe it was his fathers (Inu No Taishou)

I'm not sure, but I'm pretty sure its his tail.

It's a vacht, bont pelt of a demon. On the anime they even call it, 'fur'. So that says right there it's a vacht, bont pelt. u know how rich people and royals will often wear pelts of dead animals around their necks? Well, Sesshomaru wears a pelt of a dead demon. The reason it can react on its own is cause of the demonic aura it holds.

No one knows for sure but a widely used rumor is that it is his tail.But it could also be a part of his fathers pelt.And yes, he has used it in fights.

It's the ruff around his neck when he is in his yokai form
