CHIN's

Inuyasha and the others are introduced to Totosai, the swordsmith who forged Inuyasha's Tetsusaiga and Sesshomaru's healing sword, Tenseiga.

Acting under Naraku's request, Kikyo traps the Inuyasha gang with an illusory mist, causing them to have nightmarish visions.

Inuyasha and the others stumble across a cave full of demons fighting to the death. They soon discover that Naraku is using to find a new demon to integrate into his being. However, the large demonic aura brings Kikyo into the mess.

While looking for an antidote to cure the ailing Kilala, Inuyasha and Kagome come across the herb garden of the half-demon, Jinenji, who is constantly bullied by the prejudiced locals.

In the hopes of saving Kohaku, Sango steals Inuyasha's Tetsusaiga and hands it over to Naraku. However, a battle against Naraku soon ensues.

Naraku uses one of Sango's fellow demon slayers as a bargaining chip to try to persuade Sango into giving him Inuyasha's sword, Tetsusaiga.

After Miroku sucks a mantis demon into his Wind Tunnel, the demon manages to rip the tunnel. Panicked, Miroku returns to the home of his mentor, Mushin, to repair it. Haunted with memories of his father's death, Miroku must come to terms with his Wind Tunnel as demons attack Mushin's temple.

Inuyasha and the gang meet Taromaru, the son of a village leader. They go to the Temple of the Water God, where children are being sacrificed. The Water God has a sacred treasure and toys around with the group.

Sango reveals the secret story of the Shikon Jewel's birth. Midoriko, a priestess with powerful spiritual powers, fused with many demons after a battle to the death. She absorbed the souls of the demons into her own, punched out her soul, and died. Her soul is the Shikon Jewel.

Sango fights Inuyasha, believing him to be her enemy. Naraku's plan is to have her fight to the death using the power of the Shikon Jewel shard. But Sango listens to Kagome and is no longer suspicious of Inuyasha.
