This is one episode that you cant miss, so dont miss out you wont be disappointed. Inuyasha finally wakes up to hear kogame voice, naraku finally appears with the leaders body and takes the jewel shard from his left hand. Inuyasha was mad and broke the hold and went after naraku with his claws to break the barrier. It wasnt enough and naraku said you fool, Inuyasha called for his tetsasaiga and it came and he did the wind scar, naraku deflect and it started bouncing all over the place like a ping pong. Kogame said she see 2 jewel shards at naraku feet and that could be koga, so inuyasha had kogame on his back and kogame shot the arrow and released koga and disspelled the wind scar.moreless

First, am I the only one having Lord of the Ring flash backs? Second, it may just be some defect in my Inuyasha knowledge, but what ever happened to that thing where he couldn't be parted from his sword or he'd go all demon. Third, why the crap is Inuyasha always so surprised when someone deflects the windscar. Seriously, how many people have done that now, it's kind of becoming common place, isn't it? Fourth, it's a talking ball of mush! How cool is that? And finally, am I the only one really feeling like it's been way to long since Inuyasha got seriously wounded? Okay, okay we did have a near death experience not too long ago, but he wasn't actually wounded, Kagome just thought he was. And yes, there was that breif stint of him as a human, but come on he healed instantly as soon as he went demon. *sigh* I miss the Inuyasha near fatal woundings, their always so exciting...yes I know I'm twisted, don't bother telling me.moreless

One of the best Naraku episodes yet! *Waiting for next weeks episode.* But it was sad to see the end of the Band of Seven. (Shinnintai) But I knew they would end soon, but at least Naraku looked really cool in his new form. I'm wondering what will happen next. Oh, can't wait!!....

By Shigome, Oct 28, 2005

I thought it was a really good episode. Inuyasha called Tetsusaiga for the second time I've seen in the series for Inuyasha called Tetsusaiga in episode 58: Fateful Night in Togenkyo Part 2 when he escaped from the gord that Tokajin used to get nourishment for the Demon Tree. But in this episode it was cool when he escaped the hold on him from the intestines and tried to kill Naraku with his claws. It was also cool when he leaped towards Naraku with Kagome and her arrow made a ring of light and a powerful release.It's also cute when all three of them are together:Shippo,Inuyasha, and Kagome-it's like a little family. I can't wait untill the next episode!(f.y.i. its on tomarrow night! :P)moreless

In Beyond the Darkness: Naraku Reborn, Naraku is reborn beyond the darness! Well, that meant that meant that:

(Major Spoiler Ahead)

Spoiler Blank Space:

Naraku took his heart out and put it in the body of Hakudoshi, some baby, I think it was him. Than he has this new body that makes him look so cool! And uh, where his heart was, there was like an eye there. Man, he looks so cool! (no offense, Inuyasha-fans, it's just...it's just...uh, never mind) =)moreless

TRIVIA (2)
ADD TRIVIA
- This is the first time we see Naraku since episode 81. This time, he has a new body.
  EDIT SHARE
- If Inuyasha had the ability to summon the Tetsusaiga from afar, why didn't he ever use it before in more hopeless situations? Answer: He has used that summoning ability before. In Fateful Night in Togenkyo, Part I, when we was in human form, and trapped in that flask, he summons his sword to it's sheath and it stabs into the the flask, allowing Inuyasha to get out.
