Dont miss out on this action inuyasha fighthing as a mortal. Inuyasha doesnt does the band of seven attacks for long. He starts getting badly deep cuts all over, his red cloak no longer acts like armor cause of the barrier. The monk and sango meet the saint, he knows whats going on and is thankful for naraku bringing him back. So the monk and sango try everything but nothing happend than the monk uses his wind tunnel to knock down the barrier. The saint flee out of mountain, and the barrier went down and all the demons were escaping out of the mountains. Inuyasha turned back into a half demon.moreless

What I love so much about Inuyasha are the characters, and Jakotsu is far one of my favs. I felt this ep was a little risky judging by its quite adult implications in Jakotsu\'s script, but that is why we love him. [Cartoon Network had to tone down some of his lines, but the original Japanese script is even better.^^] It was all very tense, through the Miroku/Sango bits didn\'t grab me much, but the fight scenes between Inuyasha and Jakotsu gave it this rating. Yep, you all guessed it, I am a yaoi fangirl.^^moreless

Naraku has done it this entire series, toyed with Inuyasha, and we had to see yet another warrior fall because he was doing something stupid. I herd from a sorce that there was supposedly alittle Shonen Ai action in this one, saying that Jakostu finally made an obvious move on Inuyasha to further his obsession. Well, other then the playfull hinting and teasing for the yaoi fans, this was another great installment in the Inuyasha trilliogy, and we all know that soon the Band of Seven will be no more. I'll be sad to see Jakotsu go, and it'll be really sucky ending this chapter of the story, but I suppose that we have to move on. *grins* Though I know the good guy has to win, I was kinda hopeing this would finish it all off, and Jakotsu woulden't fool around with taunting Inuyasha and just kill him. Dont get me wrong, it's not Inuyasha I'm against, but I think that any more of Kikyou would have my head splitting open -_-moreless
