Plot Overview

InuYasha, having been pinned to a tree by his former love, Kikyo, is awakened by the teenage girl, Kagome. While at first his only desire is to retrieve The Jewel of Fours Souls so he can become a full yōkai instead of a half-demon, InuYasha eventually creates a friendship with Kagome and the rest of their group. Though on uneven terms with his half-brother Sesshomaru, InuYasha had a close relationship with his mother and, though he had never met him, his father did leave him a sword, Tetsusaiga. When the half-demon Naraku begins collecting jewel shards to gain ultimate power, InuYasha and his group set out to collect the shards first and defeat Naraku.
