5.0 out of 5 stars One Of The Best Volumes Of "Inu-Yasha" yet!!, May 10, 2002

By	Christina- A manga fanatic (California, United States) - See all my reviews

The Inu-Yasha series is one of the best mangas yet! It tells the story of a girl named Kagome who suddenly gets transported to anciant japan, were she meets a half demon named Inu-Yasha. They go on a long journey to "get back" the shards of the Shikon Jewel that gives demons ultimate power, and on the way they meat new people and fight many battles.
In this volume, the team are faced against Naraku, the enemy of Inu-Yasha. He tells of how he turned Inu-Yasha and Kikyo against eachother back on that faitful day, when the jewel was stolen. While that is happening, Kikyo is gathering souls to keep her body living. Then, Kagome meets Kikyo one night, were she is imprisoned by her. But it gets worse when Inu-Yasha meets Kikyo face to face. There, Kikyo enchants Inu-Yasha in her spell. There is no one able to help him, not even Kagome. Will Inu-Yasha get away from Kikyo's deadly grasps??!

4.0 out of 5 stars Amazing (not so) Little Book!, January 4, 2003

A Kid's Review

This book is soooooooo cool! I don't exactly own it (i'm borrowiong it from my best friend), I think I can give a pretty basic idea of whats happenig(based off the TV shows). Well, after Inuyasha pushes Kagome through the well that seperates her world from Inuyasha's, she goes back(of course, cuz they can't continue the series without Kagome)! Then they find naraku and they find out all about him and how he came to be and all that. Then they find out that Kikyo is still alive(god forbid) and Inuyasha goes and kisses her in front of Kagome and Kagome gets mad and Inuyasha gets mad and they all get mad and then Inuyasha says he really did have feeling for her, but she's asleep! ASLEEP!!!!!! There are nice sound FX, though, to make up for the [disappointing] ending (so it's only [disappointing] in my eyes...)!

5.0 out of 5 stars the best inu yasha yet!, August 7, 2003

A Kid's Review

after reading each of the inu yasha books, like ten times each, i can truly say that this is my favorite. in this book inu yasha comes face to face with kikyo again, and kagome finds out how inu yasha truly feels about the two of them!! this book is filled with close calls, violence, creepy villains, comedy, and of course--romance! what else could you expect from rumiko takahashi-the queen of romantic comedy?! sure, fifteen bucks is a lot to dish out for a 200 page comic book, but it is TOTALLY worth it for inu yasha, and it always WILL be!! BUY THIS BOOK!
