Adult Swim Schedule Change (again)
Starting November 11th, Thursdays will become "Premiere Repeat Nights", which will re-run the new episodes of Fullmetal Alchemist and Ghost in the Shell that premiered the previous Saturday. Doing this deletes a day from the weekday run, making it so the Inuyasha weekday run will not reach episode 79 until January 5th, when new episodes will start airing Monday-Wednesday.

The premieres of new Inuyasha episodes on Saturdays will end on October 16th with episode 78, at which point the series will leave Saturday.

At that point, the premieres will return with episode 79 on December 22nd and continue with the new episodes on weekdays.

Openings and Endings on Adult Swim
No, Adult Swim still won't be showing the original openings when the new episodes premiere, but since there's been a lot of complaints about it, they've decided to host all the deleted opening and ending sequences on their website, including some that haven't aired yet. Currently available for Inuyasha are the first four openings (including "Grip!" with the English intro narration), and endings 1, 2, 4, and 5. So, if you've only seen the series on AS and want to see what they're cutting, or if you're just really curious to hear that dubbed intro to "Grip!", the intros/outros can be found in the "Other" category of the "Clips" section.
