Preview from previous episode

Kikyo, who learned of Naraku's secret, is lured into a trap.

Since our parting in Mount Hakurei, how have you been, Kikyo? Why do you look so shocked to see me?

I actually couldn't sense him creeping up behind me... what's going on?

Naraku, don't you run!

Kikyo, Naraku, Inuyasha and us, all entangled, shall all converge here! Next on Inuyasha, "The Greatest Clue to Defeating Naraku".

Inuyasha, to defeat Naraku... there's only one way.

Oddities

Hakudoushi tells Kohaku to go help Kagura. The Japanese voice talent made a mistake as it is supposed to be Kanna and not Kagura.

Did you notice…?

[ ACT I ]

(in progress)


[ Preview for next episode ]

Naraku, who is after Kikyo and Sesshomaru... the only way to defeat him is to find his heart!

Is Kagura, who has betrayed Naraku, trying to tell us where his heart is?

But we were lured into the stomach of a demon instead!

I want all of you to melt in this demon... leaving only the Sacred Jewel fragment.

Whether we'll live or die... this is the final battle! Next on Inuyasha, "The Bond Between the Two — Use the Shikon Shard!"

Kagome, please! I need your support!
