I don't know about Kagome fans but Kikyou is coming back soon!^^ I don't think she is human anymore but at least she still have her conscious, I don't believe Inuyasha betray her in the past...it could be a job of someone else :D

I was wondering when they'd bring Kikyo back. She's central to this story and I agree with Shanaflame, there's no way I can see Inuyasha betraying her.

I'd say he's a nice guy deep down, if you just ignore the beginning episode where he tried to slice Kagome's head off ^^

It's going to be the return of Kikyo which will be huge! Decent episode, you could really tell that InuYasha really loves Kikyo still. This was a very great episode. But next episode, will be huge!

So will Kagome go soulless for a while?
Poor Kagome, going from a everyday student to a almost-killed-every-episode main chara.

Anyway, that situation came a bit out of nowhere, without much explaination. Maybe I shouldn't look too much into it and accept that this mononoke is somekind of necromancer...

The first episode with a very obvious hint of Inuyasha's feeling for Kikyo. Yes she is a central character, one that Inuyasha could never stop loving her even he thought she betray her.

Eh I didn't really like this one. The Inuyasha/Kikyo romance plot didn't interest me at all.

Aww, poor Kagome, she's so conflicted over both her and Inuyasha's feelings... Kikyo arc it seems, I don't like Kikyo tbh. Good episode.

I wonder how Inuyasha is going to handle the revival of kikyo, he probably won't let Kogame die

Great episode!

I feel they revive Kikyo a bit too early. I was expecting maybe in the 2nd half or later in the end.

Still, Is she really alive :O

I guess, it does confirms that Kagome is the reincarnation of Kikyo.

- A bit on backstory of KIKYO.
- INUYASHA was in love with KIKYO?
- The demon URASUE is a powerful one.

Every time I hear about Kikyo and her early death, it makes me sad. Ik Kagome is supposed to be her reincarnation but they aren't really the same.

I hate that Urasue demon. How dare she disturb a resting person?

From the preview, looks like Kikyo will be back which is good. But I think it's going to be temporary.

And the plot thickens! Kikyo is being brought back to life! I knew she did because I've watched the anime before, but I've never watched it in order. Just random episodes on Adult Swim when I could stay up late enough to watch them. (I don't think Inuyasha came on until 5 in the morning.)

I hope the episodes start picking up with more characters and action pretty soon, because the constant exposition of things we already know is getting annoying. And it's never just a brief mention, it's the entire, original 2-3 minute clip of something from a past episode. The anime creators must have had very little faith in their viewers if they thought they were going to forget an important main plot detail after reminding them about it 2 episodes ago.

You can tell they are really trying hard to change how Inuyasha is seen in comparison to the first few episodes, "Welp, it wasn't his fault the things that happened in the past", I'm having mixed feelings about retcons so early in the series.

When I first saw Urasue I thought of Yubaba from Spirted Away they have a similar appearance.
