This was a great episode to watch. Inuyasha was looking at his broke down sword, than a cow came from the sky which belongs to totosai. He did got on the cow and it took him to totosai, and inuyasha ask if you can fix it. Totosai was still crying, and he said he can do it in 3 days. Meanwhile Inuyasha turns into to a human, and than the guy who was making sesshomaru weapon from the demon fang that broke the tetsasaiga. Was now possesed by the sword he forged and he went out to kill inuyasha , totosai came back and gave back the tetsasiga but the sword is much heavier now than before and more stronger.moreless

While this ep. isn't the best for action and powerful content, it's still cool all on its own and definitely one of my favorites. It definitely has some of the best quotes that I know for the series.

It's interesting with Inuyasha thinking about his transformation. He considered what would happen if he did become a full-fledged demon and how he'd react to his friends. There's a sweet moment where he and Kagome are talking and she tells him that she was afraid he was out of her reach when he transformed. While he complains about the human emotions that overwhelm him in human form, it seems like he likes having them opposed to not having them at all, as a full demon.

I've been giving 10.0 to almost every Inuyasha ep. that I like, so I figured I'd be more reasonable with 9.5. Still, any ep. with Inuyasha in human form is worth seeing quite a few times... helps develop his character more and give me a clearer picture of him.moreless

TRIVIA (6)
ADD TRIVIA
- During this episode, Sango's Hiraikotsu was cut in half. In the next couple of episodes, it seems it was never cut in half at all and there is no explanation about how it was repaired.
  EDIT SHARE
- Inuyasha tells Miroku that he never once fell asleep when transformed into a mortal. However, he forgot the time that, as seen in "The Mystery of the New Moon and the Black-Haired Inuyasha", Inuyasha falls asleep in his human form after telling Kagome he was lying when he said he couldn't stand her scent.
  EDIT SHARE
- This is the first time that Inuyasha transforms into his human form since episode thirteen.
  EDIT SHARE
- This is the second appearance of Rin and the first time we hear her talk.
  EDIT SHARE
- When Sesshoumaru pulls out Tenseiga to revive Jaken, you'll see he has regular human fingernails instead of claws.
  EDIT SHARE
- In the beginning, when Jaken says "these old legs can't keep up," his mouth doesn't move.

- Totosai: Well, this fang will have to do. (Inuyasha smacks Totosai) Inuyasha: What did you do that for? Totosai: Quit your whining! Your tooth will grow back in a mere half a day!
  EDIT SHARE
- Miroku: (to Sango) You see, half-demons such as Inuyasha lose their demon powers on one given night when they become mere mortals. Look here (opens Inuyasha's mouth), no fangs as you see. Very interesting, wouldn't you agree? Inuyasha: Could you get your kicks somewhere other than in my face? Miroku: My apologies.
  EDIT SHARE
- Inuyasha: This is just great-- every time I turn around, someone else knows about my little secret. Kagome: So what? That just proves you have more friends than you did before.
  EDIT SHARE
- Miroku: Too scared to go to sleep? Inuyasha: (sarcastic) Oh, I'm scared. So what? Miroku: As long as you're being honest.
  EDIT SHARE
- (Rin screams and screams with fear) Sesshomaru: Enough of that, Rin. Stop it. Rin: (stops screaming abruptly) Yes, my lord!
