| R.I.P Kagura v_v |
 |
| the scene was Kagura died was gorgeous |
 RtheO |
| Kagura's death was sad, but she seemed really happy. I like what she said about being the free wind. |
 |
| Im crying seeing Kagura died like that T^T (But it was beautiful and I love it, but still...I don't want her to die...) She is one of my favorite character, and SeshomaruKagura is my second favorite pairing for this series... So, I felt really really sad........ XC |

| !st of all, i like it, was nice touchy episode but > Damn thats rushed, too rushed. I feel like i just skipped 10 episodes of original InuYasha. If this continues in same manner all old enemies will die in next few episodes,right after that climax will come and rest of the anime will be simply "happily ever after" random episodic high-school romance/comedy with supernatural touch ? :O Another thing is that this is definitely not direct sequel, lot of things are different. How did it developed to this point ? I know its unlikely to happened but i had to say it to pinpoint how it is different from original InuYasha. FeatherLynne said: I don't know if it's just me but things are happening really fast now. >.> At least for the first two episodes. Sad Kagura died too.. but I'm a little confused on what's going on. Wish I had the time to re-watch Inuyasha.. Looking forward to the next episode! It would not help you, i just finished InuYasha and started this and it just doesn't fit. its like 20 of original InuYasha episodes which would have explained all of that are missing. Also this is sooo fast going .. 2 important characters died in 1st two episodes .... How the .... ? What's going on ? Save us and explain that in next episodes cmon |

| I was a little annoyed the episode jumped around so much, but the end.. ;_; I wanted a better ending for Kagura. Ugh, this episode. ;-; <3 |
| I AM ACTUALLY ABOUT TO CRY FOR KAGURA. Sorry but Sesshomaru/Karura would've made a really amazing pairing. |

| OMG KAGURA NOO ;__; . |
 |
| My ship. xO |
| Feels weird how the main characters are all accepting of Kagura and protective of her. I still find it strange that Kagura loves Sesshomaru: they didn't drop any hints until the very end of the first series and then they just pull on this stuff on us |
| KAGURA NOOoooo.....She was one of my favorite characters! T_T That was so sad...I'm glad Sesshomaru was there though. I don't understand why the Tenseiga couldn't save her, but it was nice that he at least thought about it. Now she really is free like the wind. I'm gonna go cry now. Update: I wonder what he's going to get to replace the Tokijin. I'm sure he won't just go back to using his awesome green claw whip things. Totosai is in the next episode, so I guess he will get a replacement sword. |
emeraldrosary said: ...damn Even though Kagura died, she died free and that counts as something. But more importantly, in her death we find an important message. Kagura is an incarnation of wind. As such she holds a natural affinity for freedom and unrestrained action. Throughout the past 169 episodes, Kagura repeatedly states that she wants to be free from Naraku. But what happens when she finally gets that freedom? "Is this the freedom I've truly desired?" Kagura weeps whilst among the field of flowers. It is at this point that Kagura and we the viewers realize that there was more to this than just freedom. Kagura wanted someone that she could be with, someone she could share her freedom with, someone she could love and be loved by, someone...like Sesshomaru. It was no accident that the "wind" carried the scent of Kagura's blood to Sesshomaru. And for the first time, Sesshomaru admits that he came specifically to meet her. In the previous season, Sesshomaru would save Kagome and Inuyasha when they were in trouble. However, he would always cover up his appearance by saying he was just "passing by", and that he didn't come with the intention to save or help them. But here we see he deliberately went to visit Kagura. And what's more, usually the Tensaiga pulses and asks Sesshomaru to use it's power, but this time Sesshomaru thought about using it without any such prompts from the sword. I felt my heart sink when I heard Sesshomaru say "Are you leaving?" Awww, this episode killed me. How will I finish the remaining 24 episodes is beyond me. Exactly!! I love this post. He actually admitted that he wanted to see her, and I love that. Especially since it came from Sesshomaru. And when he asked her if she was leaving it was so sad!! Sesshomaru isn't as cold as he wants people to think. T_T I need to take some time to absorb what's happened so far. I love this anime so much. |
| LOL no one noticed sesshomaru sama crooked voice for a sec during the fight , hahahaha |

| I'm coming straight from the original Inuyasha into this, and the pacing is dreadful. They crammed so many events into a single episode... I really wish they extended this episode-wise x2 or even x3. Some of you will be confused by some events... like me. Even though I'm coming straight from the prequel! It feels like everyone is suddenly turning against Naraku all at once and gaining powerups... I guess the progress is too fast and makes it awkward. Ah, but the Kagura x Sesshomaru moment was beautiful. It was always hinted at, but in that last moment when Sesshomaru comes to the field and is very honest about coming to see her... and wanting to revive her... Sesshomaru was slightly OOC, but that's what makes it beautiful. Kagura last episode was also a bit OOC, since she was praising Sesshomaru (that should've made it obvious he was special). My feelings. >__< Beautiful. |

| Kagura..... T_T I really wanted to have her travel with sesshomaru, THough I know it'd never really work out.... I can say that I really appreciate this ending now. It didn't break up the feels after she passed :( It was really well done imho. EDIT: The spoilers from the post above me.... That sums the last scene herel up perfectly... |
| Yeah, I couldn't see a single scenario where she survived. Naraku had a total control on her and could kill her whenever she would become useless. And I guess that was the time... It look like Midoriko need Kohaku shard, whatever may be the price for it. Well, it is her shard after all... Since the Shikon no Tama is her heart. |

| Meh, that's really sad... Like really, really sad... Sashoromarurururu and Kagura were the only interesting characters in this anime for me. Now that Kagura is gone and 24 episodes left to go, it'll be hard not to drop the series =/ Oh, and btw, why is it that Kagura died, but that little undead prick Kohaku is still "alive". It really pisses me off |

| this went too fast again and Kagura I didn't expect her death to be so early, Sesshomaru rushing to see her this was so beautiful |
If you are going to disagree with me, don't bother talking to me. I will seriously hurt you! |
| Wow, now Kagura died, and they have a plan to finish with Naraku. |
 |
| Kagura dying was sad, it was amazing to see how InuYasha and the main characters cared for her in these last 2 episodes. She was an annoying character but in the last few InuYasha episodes in the original and this, I've began liking her. These past 2 episodes have been so fast I hope the pace slows down a bit soon. |
| I feel sorry for Kagura :( I knew this was coming, but I still hoped that Sesshomaru might be able to save her... She was a nice character after she started being more than just a pawn of Naraku. Btw, fuck Kikyo for just stealing the priestess' soul like that... what a douche. I know her intention is good, but then at least do it in a more respectful way instead of not even going there >.> The episode felt a bit rushed with all the new powerups like the "strongest armor ever" (which just happened to be introduced now), and Koga's new claws (which just happened to be introduced now) and Kikyo's new powers from that soul. |
 |
| This episode indicates that Kagura respects Sesshoumaru among the characters in InuYasha series. And it showed in the end that it was him she saw before she died. Too bad Sesshomaru couldn't save her. I was certain that he could! |
 She got him back. If you understand the characters well enough, you'd know she did! |
| How could they??!?! Kagura was too awesome to die! I seriously got a little misty eyed over it, especially when Sesshoumaru appeared and thought that not even he could save her. I think his moving his hand to the sword hilt indicated he would have saved her if he could, and I think she didn't miss the implications in that movement either, hence her dying with a smile. Still, Naraku better do more than die, he better suffer for this shit, RIP miss badass Kagura. |
You can make me grow old, but you can never make me grow up! |
| Just when Kagura got her freedom, she got poisened by Naruku. At least she got to see Sesshomaru, too bad the tenseiga couldn't save her |
 |
| I hate the fact that they didn't put a lot of impact on kagura's death. She's such an interesting character and I know she'll die eventually via Naraku but that death scene was shit. Probably because of the rushed shit going on in this show. |
 |
| Pretty sad that Kaguya finally got her freedom and died. That scene was beautiful though. |
| I always hoped that Kagura would survive somehow. It was a very heartbreaking scene. |
   |
| noo, i can't believe kagura died, my favourite villain in the series, that naraku bastard "freed" here only to die. seems that koga passed the test of his ancestors. and kikyo explanation really make sense, making defeating naraku much more than pure fights. |
| Kagura was true to herself till the end that's one thing a character should remain like that and she has my respect Naraku I don't remember anyone being this evil no wonder he is on top of the list. |
| Not expect to see Kagura die that early. At least she could die free as a wind. She has a great development as a sympathetic villain. After rewatch and have read this chapters, it pretty much the same as previous episode. There should be an actual battle between the group, Koga and Moryomaru before Koga looking for the ancestral weapon. The group is also waiting for Koga to get the weapon outside in the manga. And Sesshy should have fought Moryomaru at the night when searching for Fuyouheki but at the same time encountering Inuyasha's group at new moon! After nearly destroyed from the fight against Inuyasha, Moryomaru escaped to a cave with Kagura then threatening her so she would kill Kohaku to bring the shards. These entire thing is missing in the first episode somehow. There are quite a ton that they managed to cut from the actual story. |

| Woah, after watching the last season, the pace of this one seems fast as hell. Two episodes in and Hakudoshi and Kagura both died. Even though only because Naraku wished so. |
| Kagura is dead π Seshomaru sword could be used on her.. Why it cannot? Bcz of the poison? While on the previous season, Seshomaru could revive the other youkai . . |
 |
| Kagura's Wind. Episode 1 adapted 11 chapters at once. Whereas this one adapted 15. So the rushed feeling is only natural. People who were complaining about Urusei Yatsura Remake's pacing probably never watched this... Kagura was my favorite incarnation of Naraku. So it was sad to see her go. From what I've read, even Rumiko Takahashi was depressed when she wrote Kagura's death. Naraku is such an asshole. |
| Rip Kagura :pensive: |
| gunk. |
| Rest in peace Kagura. She may have never been able to truly experience the freedom of the wind, but at least she was able to see someone she was fond of in Sesshomaru one last time. |
| Damn, her death was painful to watch. Throughout most of her screen time, watching her think and plan about breaking free but ultimately failing to do so hit me hard when I saw the way she sat in that flower field, looking down and hopeless. I am glad at least she got a chance to see and talk to Sesshomaru one last time. |
