But, in the case ofInuyasha, there’s also the topic of reincarnation to consider.

Kagome is the reincarnation of the warrior Kikyo.

But the story is about our sassy fearless high schooler.

In later interactions between the half-demon and priestess, I got vibes that Inuyasha didn’t completely hate Kikyo.

There’s some implied respect mixed in there with probable hints of intimacy.

It all began when the Sacred Jewel shattered into uncountable pieces.

Inuyasha’s Tetsusaiga develops scales.

But now there are, in essence, millions of shards they have to find.

This exacerbates the wholeDragon Balleffectfrom the eponymous original shonen series.

I also appreciate how Inuyasha isn’t like most half-race protagonists who want to embrace their humanity.

Kagome and the well from Inuyasha

Instead, he’s driven by his desire to become a full demon.
