"Great"

By dreamgoat, Feb 28, 2008

This episode we see jakens and rin, go to work. We learn more about them in this episode. Inuyasha and the gang were playing rock paper scicors, than jakens appeard and summond a demon to still the tetsasaiga. The demon produce smoke and came back with rubish, and jakens sent him out again saying that the tetsasaiga is a sword. So when the demon tried to take the sword the tetsasiga barrier didnt let him touch it. They said to the demon if you give back all our stuff we'll let you go, so he did. Jakens tried to be a weapon sharperner and created a hot springs. Everyone went in the hotsprings and jakens took the sword they caught up with him and almost killed him. Rin dropped the sword to save jakens and flew away, they were in a field when kagura kidnapped rin.moreless

In this episode Jaken tries to prove his loyalty to Sesshomaru by stealing InuYasha's sword. We also see the great impact that dear Rin has on her new found companions.

"Perfect"

By goofleen, Sep 30, 2005

This episode is adorable. I love that Sesshomaru has little Rin in his group. Even Jaken reluctantly realizes how much Rin means to the group. Another great aspect of this episode is that we get to see the more playful side of the InuYasha Gang. Sure, usually they are pretty funny, but in this episode we see them play a rousing game of Rock, Paper, Scissors. I love the part where Jaken goes undercover to try to steal the sword, but he works himself out that he completely misses his chance. The hot spring scene with InuYasha and Kagome is just wonderful, but I'm pretty sure that she didn't see anything. The only bad thing about this episode is that little Rin is taken away by Kagura, but I guess that it's for the best. This forces her travel buddies, Jaken and Sesshomaru to really consider how much they care for their human friend.moreless

Filler episode maybe, but we get a hint of a great battle.

"Perfect"

By drfrantic007, Jul 23, 2005

The episode is about Jaken trying to steal the Tessaiga. He goes through a whole bunch of ways to steal it but they never work. The episode was more comedy than anything. It was very enjoyable but it seemed to miss something. I was about to give the episode a lower rating but I couldn't deny the fact that the ending makes you wonder what's going to happen next. I won't say what happened but I promise you that we won't be dissapointed with the next few episodes. I recommend this episode to anyone who enjoys comedy (it's filled with it) and for those to see the ending.moreless

- Sango always slaps Miroku for touching her butt, yet she did not slap him this time. All Sango did was bump his hand away from her butt with her Hiraikotsu and she does nothing else.
  EDIT SHARE
- Jaken does realize that, with Sesshomaru despising mortals (Rin or no Rin), even if he did get the Tetsusaiga, his master wouldn't be able to even touch it, doesn't he?
