First, fire away!
Second, I'll answer:)
Question 1. It's not you, I've notices that myself. I think the quality in the way he's drawn began to slip following the fallout at Mt Hakurei. It seems the animators decided to make him look more like he does in the manga, rather than keep to the Dreamy way he was originally drawn for the anime. I read somewhere that the director said he wanted to try and keep things as close to the original work as possible, which is good for the series, but unfortunately probably not the best choice for Sess. But not only Sess, I've notices the same for other characters as well, Kagura, Kagome, Miroku, Inuyasha and at times Sango, the only character's I've noticed who's quality remained pretty much consistent throughout the series, and never found myself disappoinedt in the way they appeared were, Kohaku, Rin, Kikyo and Naraku.
Question #2 Why couldn't the Tenseiga save Kagura? I've asked and answered this question before, because yes, it just pissed me off. I mean why not? We learn from Sesshomaru's mother that the sword can only revive a person from the dead once, but does that mean a person can only be revived from death once in a single lifetime or can the sword only do it once. Does the sword know, is it consciously aware rather or not a person had been resurrected before or not? It is called the Sword of Heaven so maybe it is... who knows, this information is never given, but if it is than that would account for it. Kagura was once a demon that Naraku caught and absorbed, most likely he killed her in the process absorbed her body, heart and all and made her a part of him. When she was reborn as his incarnation, I guess you can say she was resurrected by him to be his slave. However there is also the issue that she was an incarnation, in the end of the series Byakuya who was also an Incarnation of Naraku stated in his death that he was, "but an incarnation of Narkau, and would have died with him anyway… so I have no regrets" So does this also apply to Kagura? Maybe, but Naraku did say that when he gave back her heart that she was free from him. Knowing Naraku this just could have been a cruel lie to give her a false sense of hope before running her through. So really it's up in the air, and it's too bad that this was never explained in the series, because it would have been so much cooler if Sesshomaru had saved her. It could have been my favorite episode T_T
Question #3 Was Naraku going to absorb Sesshomaru. Yes he was, or at least this was his intent. This was Naraku's strongest desire next to killing or winning over Kikyo and killing Inuyasha. He wanted Sesshomaru's Great Demon Power. But to answer the second part of your question, no I don't believe Naraku had the strength to absorb him. When Naraku seized him and bound Sess in his tentacles Sesshomaru was perfectly calm, that is because he knew Inuyasha had broken through and knowing Inuyasha all too well, Sess knew exactly the way he would attack "WIND SCAR!" Sesshomaru deliberately used naraku's own body as a shield against Inuyasha strike (probally because it was easier than taking the effort to brake out and jump away and risk getting hit) knowing the Tenseiga's barrier would protect him. That is why he was unharmed, when other demons would have at least been burned, dissolved (somewhat or entirely) or crushed to death. Not Sess though, he rules!:D He knew what was going to happen, and was fully confident that he could escape and break out any time he wanted to, which he did, apparently with minimal effort, much to Naraku's bitter frustration.HA!
