Inuyasha has no inner meaning. It is exaclty everything you see on the surface and has no particular benefit to society. Its primary function is for the entertainment of the masses through an easily understandable Arch type, the quest myth.
Inuyasha has almost no character development. Inuyasha is a bad ass who may have a kinder side but really has no deep though that went into the contruction of his pyche. Kagome is a whiney little girl who cant do anything for herself or anyone else, she is nothing beyond that. Miroku is a lecherous monk, Sango is on the verge of being a dyke. This is as deep as their aspects go, no further. There's really very little that I can say to explain their pyche since they don't really have one. They are not believable characters, you would never know someone like that in the real world - with such a one track personality.
Inuyasha has no real ending. Takahashi san appeared to have been mystified by a shiney object and forgot whatever it was she was going to do with Inuyasha. Thus is spans far over a hundred episodes which serve no purpose or add anything to plot or character development. When it ends, it is abrupt and nonsensical, leaving a very unfinished feel to it.

There's this unrealized sexual tension between InuYasha and Kogome that's drawn out over about 800 episodes, and it's fucking annoying. Also, they always end episodes on a cliffhanger, leaving the 13-year-old girls who stay up late to watch it unable to go to sleep afterwards because they're too busy wondering what the ramnifications of InuYasha catching a glimpse of Kogome's breastasisis at the spring will be. Thanks, assholes.
Beyond that, the plots are formulaic - on the episodic level, the plot is usually "There's a monster. One of the party is under even greater threat than the rest from this monster. Usually it's Kagome. Inuyasha leads the gang to rescue the fallen. If it's Kagome, sexual tension ensues. If it's not Kagome, her seeing Inuyasha's loyal and nice side renew her feelings for him anyways (these always wane at the beginning of the episode due to some perversion - usually only perceived, so the punishment is unjust and preteen guys can sympathize). The renewed interest in Inuyasha leads to sexual tension. The End."
The story was designed to never end (There were and always will be more shards to find even if the pearl was kind of small) so they could capitalize on the inexplicable following the show developed for as long as possible. As a result of this, there is zero character development. None. Nada. Not fucking there.
