Kagome is a modern Japanese high school girl. Never the type to believe in myths and legends, her world view dramatically changes when, one day, she's pulled out of her own time and into another! There, in Japan's ancient past, Kagome discovers more than a few of those dusty old legends are true, and that her destiny is linked to one legendary creature in particular--the dog-like half-demon called Inuyasha! That same trick of fate also ties them both to the Shikon Jewel, or "Jewel of Four Souls." But demons beware...the smallest shard of the Shikon Jewel can give the user unimaginable power.

 

Inuyasha and the gang follow a trail of rumors that lead to a "living mountain." Naraku has awoken the mountain from its 200-year slumber and stolen its sacred stone. The "living mountain" then gives a gift to Inuyasha and his group to help them in retrieving the stone. But what could Naraku be hoping to achieve?
