Man, it's always a bad thing when 2 brothers are fighting each other for a sword. I guess that sword must be quite powerful but it looks like Inuyasha is destined to have it :)

Yes, but neither one of them was able to draw it.

Either it was Kagome's miko powers or it's just that their father made it where only humans could pull it out. I can't remember.

I doubt it was because of priestess powers. That doesn't have anything to do with this scenario. It makes more sense that it was because she was a pure human since Inuyasha's father married a pure human girl to give birth to Inuyasha.

In any case, it was really cool to see the brothers fight it out. I hope we get to see these two bros to clash again in the future. At first I thought Kagome was done for, but I knew the heorine couldn't die specially so soon into the series ^^

I like how Jaken killed all those samurai with ease, but is having a tough time with Kagome.

That awkward moment when a random release the legendary sword. That's confusing. Maybe only a human could take it out?
Also, did she lost in a strenght contest against a frog? That's humiliating...

Sesshoumaru true form look badass. He look like a pokemon xD

Even though it didn't work I love Kagome's idea of taking to sword just to diss Sesshomaru.

You know you've seen way too many anime when scenes like these are predictable.... Oh well. Still fairly entertaining.

Inuyasha's brother sure is powerful, Inuyasha can't do a thing... Kagome pulling out the sword was hilarious, seems like she killed both their egos with that, haha.

I think I understand why kagome could pull out the sword, it's because she's human. That's why inu yasha could touch it because he's half human and sesshomaru couldn't touch it because he is full demon.


Sesshomaru's pride has probably taken a harder fall from kagome being able to pull out that sword lol

We got some amazing fights!!! This is the good stuff :)

Also, the way his father hid his tomb through Inuyasha's right eye. That's actually genius and clever way to not get exposed.

i have pretty good guess about kagome drawing out the sword and i think it's connected to the next episode - since the sword are meant for inuyasha, he need to draw the sword by his human part, and that's way he couldn't pull it out himself since he only thought about drawing it for his demon side.

from some reason the pace was kinda rushed, inuyasha pulled out from than un-mother demon too fast.

I was surprised that Inuyasha got his right pupil back suddenly, was that when he entered the tomb world?

Let me guess here :

Maybe the sword can be pulled out by anyone who is using it to protect others, or something like that. -----> Well, it depends on the character of his father, good or bad, knowing he was a demonic creature.

I know they're shrine keepers and stuff but it's crazy that Kagome's mom allows her daughter to travel back to the Sengoku period where she could possibly die.

Japan has some really good yokais based on their complex history.

Gotta love cliffhangers.

I like how logical and obvious the dialogue in this show has been, especially from Kagome. Things are identified and questioned quickly, which is a nice change of pace in shounen anime.
