InuYasha Episode Index

[ Edited ]
The InuYasha Episode Guide Index

 




It is drawing close to four years (six in Japan) since InuYasha has ended, and that being said, it's necessary to have a guide for the InuYasha anime. This thread will have an index of all the episodes of the English dub. The episodes are divided into seasons, as determined by the DVDs, which link to more detailed posts on the individual episodes (these will contain a more in-depth summary and screenshots).  And these individual episode posts will be written and submitted by you, the fans.  Also, because InuYasha: The Final Act has not come to Adult Swim as of yet, there won't be anything posted for it just yet, so this will just pertain to the original InuYasha for now.

 

 

 

 


Be aware that there will be SPOILERS in this guide. The individual episode posts will contain more information, of course. If you happen to be new to InuYasha and wish to remain unspoiled, you'd be best to avoid the posts for episodes you've yet to see.



Links to the seasons that have aired on [adult swim] are below. Each season list consists of one screenshot (the episode post will have more) from each episode, the English episode titles, and brief summaries.




Seasons
1.  Season 1 (Episodes 1-27)

2.  Season 2 (Episodes 28-54)

3.  Season 3 (Episodes 55-81)

4.  Season 4 (Episodes 82-99)

5.  Season 5 (Episodes 100-126)

6.  Season 6 (Episodes 127-146)

7.  Season 7 (Episodes 147-167)

 




The episode guide will be periodically updated by either SesshomaruBebop87, MookieIYHELPeR or DoxieMoxie. (And don't mind the links, they simply lead to the Welcome thread because everything else isn't up.)

Kikyo chose to let Naraku have a new body out of curiousity. Now she has met the enemy and his destruction has become one of her top proirities. She will give Naraku the Shikon shards just for the purpose of destroying him, even if it means subjecting Inuyasha and the others to the Spell of Illusory Death. 

Photobucket"Tetsusaiga and Tenseiga"

Totosai the sword smith who forged Tessaiga and also the sword that Sesshomaru carries, Tenseiga. Tenseiga is the sword of Healing and was left to Sesshomaru just as Tessaiga was left to Inuyasha.  However, Totosai will break Tessaiga if Inuyasha cannot learn how to use it.

Photobucket"Kagura's Dance and Kanna's Mirror"

Photobucket"Kaijinbo's Evil Sword"

Sesshomaru comes to see what was powerful enough to destroy Tessaiga.  He finds Goshinki's head, the smell of Tessaiga still on its fangs, and a swordsmith who is less principled than Totosai to forge a new sword from those fangs.  In the meantime, Totsai & Myoga go to Inuyasha.  All is not lost, Tessaiga can be repaired!  But there is something they are not telling Inuyasha about all this. . .

Photobucket"Father's Old Enemy: Ryukotsusei"

Inuyasha has decided he must do something to make Tessaiga lighter. He goes to old Totosai to learn what is required of him. The answer sounds easy enough, kill a sleeping dragon. However, nothing is simple when Naraku is involved and Naraku decides to involve himself in this. In addition, this dragon was the demon who killed Inuyasha's mighty father.

Photobucket"The Backlash Wave: Tetsusaiga's Ultimate Technique"

Inuyasha has turned full demon and seems intent on fighting Ryukotsusei in that form.  Or does he?  He seems to be struggling to reach his sword; but Ryukotsusei is leveling his largest attack, yet, right at Inuyasha.

After Sango returns to her village to fix Hiraikotsu, Miroku, Inuyasha & Kagome run across fruit with human faces floating down a river. Miroku thinks it might be Ninmenka, a demon tree.

Photobucket"Fateful Night in Togenkyo, Part II"

Kagome has collapsed under the weight of Tsubaki's curse and Inuyasha must fight a giant demon without Tessaiga or risk Tsubaki killing her.

Naraku's scent is leaking out of his castle and both Inuyasha and Koga are in hot pursuit. But there is a problem with Inuyasha. He keeps losing the scent and can't get it back. Even Koga notices something, Inuyasha's "dog smell" is fainter than normal.

Photobucket"Onigumo's Memory Restored"

Musou, the detachment of Naraku with no memory, is starting to remember things. It turns out that he IS Onigumo, but not exactly. He is made up of Naraku's demons and harbors a great secret, plus, it seems that he can't be destroyed.

Photobucket"The Red Tetsusaiga Breaks the Barrier!"

Inuyasha needs to kill a barrier-forming demon to strengthen Tessaiga. Except his quarry is Shiori, and a child who has been taken from her mother. It looks like his goal has changed from killing the girl to rescuing her.

Someone Sango met many years ago wants to marry her. Kagome is happy about it, even if Miroku isn't.

Photobucket"Jaken's Plan to Steal the Tetsusaiga"

Sesshomaru seems to be content with Tokijin and has stopped fighting with Inuyasha over the Tessaiga; but Jaken has seen how much stronger Inuyasha has made the Tessaiga. No one should have a better weapon than his great Lord, least of all that half-breed brother of his. Jaken resolves to fix that little problem.

Photobucket"Sesshomaru and the Abducted Rin"

Naraku has kidnapped Rin. Sesshomaru is not happy about this, but he won't do what Naraku wants. He'd rather kill Naraku instead. But Inuyasha has caught the scent of Naraku's castle as well and is also on his way there. To make matters worse, Kohaku is guarding Rin.

Photobucket"Vanishing Point; Naraku Disappears"

Sesshomaru is battling Naraku at his castlea and Inuyasha is also almost there. Soon it will be the two brothers against Naraku. But if Naraku orders Kohaku to kill Rin, who will be able to stop him?

Season 5: (Episodes 100-126)
Photobucket"Truth Behind the Nightmare: Battle in the Forest of Sorrow"

Gatenmaru the moth demon is back? No. It's his cousin Garamaru. This moth demon feeds on fear and despair, not blood, and he has the gang trapped in cocoons, dreaming deadly nightmares. Inuyasha must fight the demon all alone to save his friends.

Photobucket"The Snow from Seven Years Past"

Long ago, the boy Miroku struck out on his own in the world, and got lost in a terrible blizzard. He was saved by a beautiful woman. Now he has encountered a beautiful woman who says they have met before, and has the children to prove it.

Photobucket"Assault on the Wolf-Demon Tribe"

Ayame is back. But the news is not good. Some gigantic demon is attacking her tribe. She needs Koga's help with this battle.

Photobucket"The Band of Seven, Resurrected"

The Band of 7 has escaped their tomb. They are walking around as resurrected zombies terrorizing the countryside, but their real target is Inuyasha and his friends.

Photobucket"The Stealthy Poison Master, Mukotsu!"

A new member of the Band of 7 shows up, Mukotsu the Poison master; and he has his sights on Kagome. Inuyasha is off chasing down Jakotsu.

Photobucket"The Ghastly Steel Machine!"

The 5th member of the Band of 7 makes his appearance. Ginkotsu is about to attack Inuyasha; but Inuyasha has only Shippo and Kirara to help him; and Kagome, Sango and Miroku are all sick from Mukotsu's poison and need care.

Photobucket"Kagome, Miroku, and Sango: Desperate Situation!"

Inuyasha has been busy fighting with Ginkotsu, an armored tank of a zombie who seemingly can't be stopped or killed. Shippo has taken his friends to a mountain shrine, but the man they meet there is actually another member of the Band of 7. Now Shippo and Kirara are under his spell, too.

Photobucket"Inuyasha Shows His Tears For The First Time"

Things have reached their lowest point yet for Inuyasha. Are his friends dead?

Photobucket"The Secret of the Pure Light"

The newly recovered gang comes across a man out picking herbs with some children. He seems harmless enough; but Inuyasha's nose tells him differently and Kagome can see a jewel shard in his neck.

Photobucket"Hidden in the Mist: Onward to Mt. Hakurei!"

Suikotsu of the Band of 7 has just emerged and three more of the Band are attacking. Inuyasha's friends and Kikyo are all effectively neutralized and Inuyasha must protect two children who have come onto the battlefield.

Photobucket"Enter Bankotsu, The Leader of the Band of Seven"

We finally meet the leader of the Band. He has a castle in his sights and waits for Inuyasha to track him there.

Photobucket"The Big Clash: Banryu versus the Wind Scar"

Inuyasha has now met the last member of the Band of 7. The big confrontation is about to settle things. But Naraku makes an appearance to end the fight.

Photobucket"Afloat on the Lake Surface: The Barrier of Hijiri Island"

The strange scent of Naraku's demon puppet leads Inuyasha and the gang to Hijiri island. The island is surrounded by a barrier like Hakurei, only weaker. However, it is strong enough to weaken Inuyasha and Tessaiga. The wind scar doesn't work and Bankotsu has appeared spoiling for a fight.

Photobucket"The Sacred Vajra and the Mystery of the Living Buddha"

The barrier of Hijiri Island has been broken and Inuyasha is back to full strength. But it seems Bankotsu has gotten stronger and he has 5 shards, 3 in his neck and 2 on his halberd. Plus, he has a few abilities that never appeared before. With a badly injured arm, does Inuyasha have what it takes to defeat him?

Photobucket"Koga's Solitary Battle"

It appears that Naraku has recruited an ally in Saint Hakushin. Miroku and Sango have gone into the barrier of Mt. Hakurei alone to investigate, leaving Inuyasha and Kagome waiting just outside. Elsewhere near the mountain, Koga is trying to find a way through the barrier to get at the Band of 7 inside. It looks like he will get his wish to fight them. Meanwhile, Sesshomaru is about to encounter 2 of the 7 himself.

Photobucket"Lured by the Black Light"

Sesshomaru's battle with Jakotsu has begun. But Suikotsu and Rin have disappeared. Elsewhere, Kikyo meets Bankotsu and Inuyasha tries to save Koga. Lastly, Sango and Miroku continue to climb the mountain.

Photobucket"The Exposed Face of Truth"

Suikotsu has kidnapped Rin and taken her into the barrier. Sesshomaru has to enter the barrier rescue her. Kikyo also heads that way following Suikotsu's shard. In another part of the mountain, Inuyasha has now become Koga's hero, hiding him in a mountain cave far enough from the barrier to allow him to recover. Up on the mountain Sango and Miroku have gotten lost in the caves.

Photobucket"Vanished in a River of Flames"

Inuyasha has found a cave in which to hide Koga until he recovers. But as we have seen with Ginkotsu, caves can be dead-end traps as well as safe havens. Renkotsu has tracked him down, bent on revenge and taking Koga's shards. Meanwhile, Miroku and Sango are still struggling up the side of Hakurei, searching.

Photobucket"Into the Depths of Mt. Hakurei"

Miroku and Sango have finally found something inside Hakurei, Kagura and a horde of Naraku's demons. Down at the foot of the mountain, Inuyasha has grown tired of waiting for their return. He leaves Kagome, Shippo, and Kirara in Koga's care and heads for the mountain himself. But even though he is half-human, can he really get through the purifying barrier?

Photobucket"Divine Malice of the Saint"

Inuyasha has been pushed into the holy barrier by Renkotsu and now he is human. To make matters worse, Jakotsu has trapped him in a cave deep under Mt. Hakurei. Elsewhere inside the barrier, Miroku and Sango have fled Kagura's demons and run right up to the shrine where Saint Hakushin is ensconced.

Photobucket"Fare Thee Well: Jakotsu's Requiem"

Miroku has brought down the barrier of Mt. Hakurei and given Inuyasha his powers back. But even as a half-demon, Inuyasha has his hands full coping with Jakotsu's sword. After that, there is still one more obstacle ahead, the strongest of the Band of 7, Bankotsu. Kikyo has gone to find the thing that has escaped from Mt. Hakurei.

Photobucket"Final Battle: The Last and Strongest of the Band of Seven"

If Inuyasha wants to find Naraku, he has to get past Bankotsu. Bankotsu is not only the strongest of the Band of 7, but he also has 9 shards, and a major grudge against Inuyasha. Miroku and Sango are still inside the mountain, and they no longer have the protection against Kagura's demons that Hakushin's barrier gave them. Kagome, too, is headed into the mountain to find her friends and with the barrier gone, Koga and Kirara accompany her.

Photobucket"The Power of Banryu! Duel to the Death on Mt. Hakurei!"

Inuyasha is in over his head. Bankotsu with 4 shards was hard enough to fight, but now he has 9. Inuyasha's only option is to take away the shards, but to do that he must abandon Tessaiga. Miroku and Sango make a confusing discovery. Even Sesshomaru and Kikyo have joined the fray; and Kagome decides to enter the mountain

Photobucket"Beyond the Darkness - Naraku Reborn!"

Everyone in the gang has reunited, except Koga who is lost somewhere within the walls of the caves in Mt. Hakurei. However, Inuyasha is injured and unconscious, and trapped in a tangle of living vines.

Photobucket"Farewell Kikyo, My Beloved"

Hakurei is collapsing as Naraku escapes outside. His goal is -- Kikyo!!  But Inuyasha is busy, rescuing Koga. He doesn't even know Kikyo is in danger.

Photobucket"The Darkness in Kagome's Heart"

Inuyasha is truly upset about Kikyo's death. So when news that she may still be alive reaches him, he goes off to see for himself. But while the group's strongest protector is gone, Naraku is free to attack and capture Kagome.

Photobucket"Transform Heartache into Courage!"

Kagome is in the clutches of Naraku's evil baby who wants to control her soul and use her eyes. Inuyasha is off looking for Kikyo. But enterprising little Shippo is trying to find him. Can Kagome hold out until Inuyasha returns to defeat Kagura and Kanna, and that evil baby?

Season 6 (Episodes 127-160)
Photobucket"Don't Boil It! The Terrifying Dried-Up Demon"

Kagome returns home to catch up with her studies; but it isn't to be. There's a cultural festival at school and Kagome's classmates waste no time getting her into the thick of things. Unbeknownst to all, though, she has brought home something dangerous from the feudal era: Demons!

Photobucket"Battle Against the Dried-Up Demons at the Cultural Festival"

The cultural festival is in full swing; but there are several uninvited guests, Demons! Inuyasha must find and destroy all of them, and keep from being discovered as a demon himself.

Photobucket"Chokyukai  and the Abducted Bride"

Kagome loves bacon; but she never thought she would end up married to it. And that's exactly what will happen unless Inuyasha, Sango and Miroku band together, with a little help from Shippo, to rescue her from a boar demon that hails from the continent.

Photobucket"Shippo's New Technique, The Heart Scar"

Five baby fox demons have developed a serious case of hero-worship, for Shippo. And true to his love for flattery Shippo goes overboard trying to prove his "greatness" to them.

Photobucket"Trap of the Cursed Wall Hanging"

Rumors have it that there is a village of demon women somewhere in the area. The only problem is that there is no demonic aura anywhere nearby. So the village where Inuyasha, Kagome, Miroku and Sango decide to stay for the night is perfectly ordinary, except it has only women in it and the men must sleep in a separate hut from the others.

Photobucket"Miroku's Most Dangerous Confession"

Just when Miroku thought he had gotten lucky, it turns out the woman was possessed by a demon. On top of that, it seems that even Sango has been possessed by the same thing; and Inuyasha & Kagome are stuck fighting an entire village of possessed women.

Photobucket"The Woman Who Loved Sesshomaru, Part I"

A woman named Sara lies dying in a convent by the sea. She has been ill and dies soon after Inuyasha and his companions walk past her village.

Photobucket"A Strange Invisible Demon Appears!"

The old exorcist from Demon's Head castle runs into the gang again. This time an invisible demon is robbing all the best houses in the village. At least it's soft beds and good food for everyone, and a hot bath for Kagome, if only Shippo and Inuyasha can stop bickering.

Photobucket"An Ancestor Named Kagome"

Modern Hojo has found a scroll showing Kagome's name as the wife of his ancestor Akitoki. What he doesn't know is that Kagome has met this ancestor. Kagome wonders if this means something happened and she wound up staying in the past, married to him. When she gets back there, the very person she is wondering about shows up with a demon weapon capable of possessing Inuyasha.

Photobucket"Mountain of Demons:  Survival of the Duo"

Kagome and Akitoki have been separated from the others and must survive in the forest alone, with demon ninjas pursuing them. Inuyasha, meanwhile, has to fight off the head demon ninja and a strange all-powerful weapon before he can search for her.

Photobucket"The Great Duel at Shoun Falls"

Hoshiyomi has captured Kagome and is holding her to exchange for the Ken half of the Naginata. Inuyasha can't lose Kagome. Equally, he can't let the entire Naginata fall into Hoshiyomi's hands. On top of all that, Tessaiga can't transform and the demon ninjas are attacking everyone!

Photobucket"Eternal Love, The Naginata of Kenkon"

Hoshiyomi used Kagome's spiritual power to restore the Naginata. Now he threatens to destroy all of humanity. Inuyasha's Tessaiga is still powerless; and Kagome is still in Hoshiyomi's hands.

Photobucket"Entei, The Demon Horse Unleashed!"

Photobucket"Untamed Entei and Horrible Hakudoshi"

A new incarnation of Naraku has appeared, Hakudoushi. This one promises to be a real handful; and even worse, he has teamed up with the recently released demon horse, Entei. Things have gone from bad to worse.

Photobucket"3,000 Leagues in Search of Father"

Headless demons are running around. The gang saves a young girl from one of them, only to find out it is a river otter demon looking for his father's body. He has the head, but can Inuyasha find his father in time? And even worse, someone Inuyasha doesn't want to confront is standing in the way, Sesshomaru!

Photobucket"Hosenki and the Last Shard"

The team now has a clue to the location of the last shard, the grave of Inuyasha's father! But there is no way to get there. The black pearl is gone.

Photobucket"Bizarre Guards at the Border of the Afterlife"

The only path left to the Border Land lies behind a gate in the Land of Fire. The problem is that Inuyasha will have to die to pass through it. The stone guards will not let the living pass through the gate.

Photobucket"The Fiery Bird Master, Princess Abi"

Something new has developed while everyone was in the Land of Fire. A new threat has appeared, Princess Abi. She is somehow connected to Naraku. But why is Naraku diverting his attention to vampire birds instead of pursuing the last jewel shard?

Photobucket"The Tragic Love Song of Destiny, Part I"

Kaede tells the story of her older sister's love affair with a young half-demon. An affair that lead to both their deaths.

Photobucket"The Single Arrow of Chaos"

Princess Abi's birds are still raiding villages. Now they have targeted one that is protected by a mystic called Saint Hijiri. Refugees from all over the countryside are going there. Inuyasha must protect all these pilgrims while they are vulnerable outside the village. Elsewhere, the question arises of what happened to the other half of Hakudoushi, and a mysterious baby appears in a nearby castle.

Photobucket"The Mysterious Light that Guides the Saint"

Inuyasha says that the Sacred Arrow that broke Hakudoushi's barrier is not Kikyo's; but everyone else disagrees. However, Inuyasha isn't saying that there is something familiar about the scent on the arrow, something he can't quite place. A barrier appears that protects the villagers from Abi's birds.

Photobucket"Kagome's Instinctive Choice"

Kagome found Kikyo, but the priestess is in bad shape. Naraku's miasma is poisoning her entire body. If Kagome refuses to accept the challenge of saving her, she will die. It is all on Kagome's shoulders, and there's a deadline. Meanwhile, Abi's birds are still attacking and Naraku is hunting for Kikyo, with every demon he has.

Photobucket"Protect and Plunder!"

Abi's birds find a new target, the castle where Naraku's baby is living. Has she turned on Naraku? And Kohaku is also at the castle. Will Sango get to see her brother again? What's more, Kohaku seems to be remembering his past.

Photobucket"The Cruel Reunion of Fate"

Kohaku is following Naraku's orders and killing the castle denizens. Will Sango get there in time to save them? Inuyasha's fight with Abi intensifies, until Abi decides to leave.

Photobucket"The Demon Linked With the Netherworld"

The birds' nest is exposed. Naraku wants Inuyasha there when he executes his plan. The path to the netherworld will soon open.

Photobucket"The Demon Protector of the Sacred Jewel Shard!"

Tekkei is dead and all the human blood she stored in her body is the path to the borderland. The race to find the last jewel shard is on in earnest and Naraku has a head start. Sesshomaru is starting to get involved in it, too.

Photobucket"Final Battle at the Graveside! Sesshomaru Versus Inuyasha"

Hosenki's shard is tainted and Inuyasha has a fight on his hands if he wants to get it. Meanwhile, Sesshomaru has found a different route into the borderland and he is none too happy to find either Naraku or his brother there.

Photobucket"Destroy Naraku with the Adamant Barrage!"

Naraku has taken the last shard of the jewel. Even Sesshomaru can't break through his barrier. The answer lies in Hosenki's demon power; but can Inuyasha defeat him and take it? Kikyo's arrow has rejected Kagome. Can she find a way of using it against Naraku?

Photobucket"Stampede of the Countless Demon Rats!"

Hakudoushi unleashes an army of demon rats on the landscape. They multiply when cut, so Tessaiga is useless. Worst of all, he enlists Kohaku for the job. The worst part is Kohaku has remembered everything about his past.

Photobucket"Kohaku's Decision and Sango's Heart"

Sango has found Kohaku and the shrine. But can she stop the demon rat stampede?

Photobucket"The Lucky but Two-Timing Scoundrel!"

Season 7 (Episodes 161-167)
Photobucket"Miroku's Past Mistake"

Miroku always asks every woman (and sometimes young girls) he meets to bear his children. With all that propositioning, it was only a matter of time before he runs into someone who says she took him up on his offer.

Photobucket"Forever with Lord Sesshomaru"

A 'Pied Piper' like demon kidnaps Rin. Both Sesshomaru and a group of demon hunting monks go to rescue her. Inuyasha can't help prevent the confrontation that is certain to occur because it is the night of the New Moon.

Photobucket"Kohaku, Sango and Kirara: The Secret Flower Garden"

Kirara has wandered off. Has she gone to Sango's village, which is nearby? Kohaku has gone there too. Are the siblings to be reunited?

Photobucket"Possessed by a Parasite: Shippo, Our Worst Enemy"

There are strange parasite insects running around possessing demons. Shippo is their next victim, but why is Inuyasha convinced that he is the one being attacked? Somehow, Naraku is involved; but how?

Photobucket"The Ultimate Key to Defeating Naraku"

The gang finally finds out where the parasite chrysalis came from; and Hakudoushi is up to new tricks. He is creating his own Frankenstein demons from spare parts. Can Inuyasha defeat the newest one?

Photobucket"The Bond Between Them, Use the Sacred Jewel Shard! (Part I)"

There is a strange group of monks going around killing demons using shafts of light. Inuyasha is next on their list. Pursuing them leads the gang to a very creepy temple and its even creepier master. What's more, the monks are all children! Inuyasha is convinced this is another of Naraku's traps, until Kagura attacks.

Photobucket"The Bond Between Them, Use the Sacred Jewel Shard! (Part II)"

Inuyasha finally gets a lead to finding Naraku and The Baby. But it looks like it was all a setup to lead him into a deadly trap. To get out, he must use the final jewel shard. But that could turn out to be an even bigger trap. Can Inuyasha save himself and his friends?
