This was an ok episode to watch, but im concern of the low self esteem kogame has towards inuyasha. Getting together with hojo, I believe you make your own destiny and the choices are yours to make thats your own free will.moreless

This was an ok episode to watch, but im concern of the low self esteem kogame has towards inuyasha. Getting together with hojo, I believe you make your own destiny and the choices are yours to make thats your own free will. Thats a blessing that was giving to us all. They decided to help hojo out cuase of kogame, they were heading toward the shrine when a lot of misfortune started to happend along the way and finally the the the leader of the ninja demons appeared. This is getting really old, I wish inuyasha will stop this attitude and confess that he loves kogame. This is a clear sign of kogame doubt about inuyasha.moreless

This is another filler episode.If your someone who is looking for action don\'t despair next week\'s episode has more action in it.So Hojou discovers that his ancestor Akitoki had a wife named Kagome from the fedural era.This has Kagome wondering if she\'s this \"Hojou Kagome\" In Inuyasha\'s time Akitoki is getting jumped again when Inuyasha steps in, soon the others except Kagome who hadn\'t returned yet, ask him what\'s so special about his sword.His sword is a half of the Halbred of Heaven.This isn\'t one of my favorite episodes given in to the fact that the real trouble doesn't begin until the following episode, but there is a scene that did hold my interest.The scene where Inuyasha is explaining to Kagome how humans could never understand about wanting power or something about not being able to use the Halbred.moreless
