| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Kagome sure gives up easily seeing that she went on a date with Hojo. Finally we know that Naraku is behind everything that happen between Inuyasha and Kikyou in the past so now it's everyone against him alone :D |
 |
| The true source of the evil is unmasked. Hopefully Kikyou's spirit will also learn the truth and realize that Inuyasha really loved her. It looks like Kagome almost realized for a moment what her feelings are towards Inuyasha. |

| Naraku is powerful! His attack is so large scale, and his motion is quick too |

| Yeah, I remember Naraku now. He's the the villain this series needed, and his past has already been delved into a bit. Inuyasha and Miroku's hatred for him is well defined, I have to say. Very well done, there. |

This is really only a glimpse into his past of what happened during that time, but the real story isn't going to be revealed until episode 148 and 149 and those are my favorite episodes in the whole series. |

| Well, that's something to look forward to. I'm glad, as I thought Takahashi sort of played her cards a little too soon. I mean, really, the series has barely gotten started. It isn't a good idea to completely reveal the main villains (?) motivations and history this early. |

| Great episode, loved the new ending. The InuYasha and Kagome reunion was amazing to see. Kagome really missed InuYasha, it was cute to see them reunited. They really love eachother. Naraku is such an evil villain! He set everything up, he's the one behind everything! I'm glad that InuYasha and everyone finally met Naraku for the first time! This was a very entertaining episode! This was the best episode yet honestly. Can't wait for next week. |

| Naraku is a Spiderman. Now I know. |
| I really feel bad for Hojo. The dude is just too... bland x) But he have good intentions. At least, I do hope he don't have ill intentions. So we see Naraku face. He oddly look a bit like InuYasha, but in more builded. He seem also way stronger, but he do have a lot of shards. That must help him in some way. In any case, they explained quite simply why Kaede felt that Onigumi was human. It was a clever way to solve that contradiction. |

| You know Naraku maybe a bastard, but he has a point. If Kikyo and Inuyasha really trusted each other, why was it so easy to shatter said trust? |
 |
| Yeah ! Kagome is back and hugged Inuyasha, that was nice. So Naraku has a spider on the back, wonder what it mean. This show is so good so far, i freaking love it, so interesting ! |

What his plan was wasn't exactly simple. First take into account that at that point, Naraku was born, they had no way of knowing who he was and what he did. Second, trusting someone takes time. You cannot expect Kikyo and Inuyasha to just trust each other the moment they start have feelings for each other. 1) It is world full of shape-shirting demons. & 2) Even so the point remains valid. |
| |
| Still think both Inuyasha and Kagome are dumb, seeing as how they can't be honest with their feelings >___> Stupid Kagome said "ask me out again" to Hojo. Fuck you, bitch. Don't lead people on like that >:( This is why I ship Inuyasha with Kikyo more. She's MUCH more elegant, powerful, and true to herself. Too bad Kagome is the living heroine so she's gonna end up with him =.=" |
| Ah, I forgot how lame Naraku's backstory was :'D Such a big antagonist and it was just a "oh, thousands of demons devoured me and then I came into existence for some reason, because I wished for power and the Shikon no Tama" :'D |
 |
| I sort of feel bad for the poor guy he thinks he has a chance and she is just struggeling with Inuyasha |
 |
| Pretty nice episode, some explanation how naraku became a demon, some battling Well naraku was just plain evil from the beginning in my opinion, not realy much of a backstory |
 |
| I'm glad we finally have our true villain. They did a good job of making the viewer absolutely hate this guy, too. Now it has me wondering if Inuyasha can somehow ever make it up to Kikyo. |
Awoo :3 |
| Finally we get to see Naraku. Freaking bastard for shape shifting and making Kikyou and Inuyasha fight each other. Though, I do agree on him. That Kikyou and Inuyasha should have not doubted each other and instead wondered and ask what happened. Their trust isn't as strong as they thought they were. Can't wait for more episodes! |
| Poor Hōjō lol, thinking Kagome is actually ill doesn't help. So as long as the Shards are in the well x amount of time between the feudal and modern era, people can pass through. |

| kagome is so in denial, even when she's dating she can't stop thinking about inuyasha. inuyasha doesn't need kagome only for the fragments, but he also can't unleash all his powers? it's not related for her spiritual powers, that for sure... to reveal the villain so soon it's actually surprise, seems like the mangaka didn't felt to write freely without that. and though the ending theme was above average, i still prefer the first one. |
| Great episode Naraku showing his true shape. |
| Hmm so not really a big reveal, now we just know who Nagaraku used to be. |
| According to Wikipedia, episodes 21 and 22 aired together as an hour-long special and the broadcast version is 5 minutes longer. I wonder how much content is cut in the DVD/BD version if any. Naraku has a point. Kikyo and Inuyasha's trust wasn't firm. This is something that has bothered me ever since it was revealed that both characters were tricked. Glad to see this being addressed. Inuyasha basically got a second chance to rebuild this trust (and this time stronger than before) with Kagome. But I wish he'd still make up with Kikyo somehow. The next episode might just be that. I loved the old ED. It'll take time for me to adjust to the new one. |
