Season overview
InuYasha is an animated action, adventure, and fantasy television series created by Rumiko Takahashi. The first series originally aired from October 2000 to September 2004, spanning 167 episodes on Yomiuri TV, Nippon Television, and their affiliates. The story follows Kagome Higurashi, a modern-day ninth-grade student who lives with her family near the old Higure shrine. Kagome is the reincarnation of a priestess named Kikyo and possesses the Shikon Jewel, also known as the Jewel of Four Souls.
After discovering an ancient well near her home, Kagome is pulled into the past, arriving 500 years earlier in a feudal era. There, she encounters Inuyasha, a young half-demon who seeks the Shikon Jewel to transform himself into a full-fledged demon. To recover the shards of this powerful jewel, Kagome begins a journey alongside Inuyasha and new friends. The series explores their search for the jewel fragments while navigating the dangers of the feudal landscape. This initial series serves as the foundation for the broader franchise, which later continued with a direct sequel titled Inuyasha: The Final Act. The show is categorized under the animation, action, adventure, and sci-fi and fantasy genres.
