InuYasha: when medieval Japan meets fantasy and romance

Created by Rumiko Takahashi (famous for Ranma ½), InuYasha ran as a manga from 1996 to 2008, with its anime adaptation starting in 2000.
The story follows Kagome Higurashi, a modern-day schoolgirl who falls through a magical well and lands in feudal Japan, where she meets InuYasha, a half-demon dog-warrior bound to the powerful Shikon Jewel.

When the jewel shatters, Kagome and InuYasha embark on a journey to recover its fragments, battling terrifying demons and the sinister Naraku.

The series blends:

• Epic battles with InuYasha wielding his sword Tessaiga.

• Romantic drama between Kagome, InuYasha, and the resurrected Kikyo.

• Humor and camaraderie from companions like Miroku, Sango, and Shippo.

• Japanese folklore, full of spirits, demons, and myth.

With its striking early-2000s anime style and unforgettable opening themes (Change the World, Fukai Mori), the show became a global hit. Spanning over 190 episodes, movies, and a sequel (Yashahime), InuYasha remains a timeless classic of fantasy anime.
