----------------------------------------
They took over half the episode for flashbacks. I had feared this would happen since they had 5 more episodes to "fill" with material. At least the last part was still enjoyable.

According to the titles for the next four episodes, ep 26 will be completely dedicated to the epilogue. So the final battle will span 4 episodes.

I can't wait for next week, when Sesshomoru and Inuyasha fight.

I noticed that too, and they instantly disintegrated into a pile of bones. The Jewel is awfully greedy; The miasma doesn't want to kill Inuyasha because their souls are too delicious. That, and we would end up with a rather boring end =P

I agree there is a lot of recap, but since i, personally, have not watched Inuyasha in so long the recaps sort of helped me remember some stuff. Even more so since they have flown through over what, 200 chapters of manga in 20 episodes? (Thats a total guess)

*takes a deep breath* Yes it was about flashbacks... but.. it was a great episode. YAY Kagome-Chan Graduating heading into High School (A HUGE DEAL IN JAPAN)! :D However... bombshell with not just the SangoXMiroku development, but Inuyasha.. Attacking KAGOME?! :( Well, I'm not going to get to wrapped up in it. He was under a spell and she knows it. Next episode is going to be interesting. --- Randy

Wow, I felt incredibly bored watching this episode. Even with Kagome falling, I just didn't care anymore. Everything was just too easy and had an element of coincidence to it. Hopefully next week's episode is better than the usual Sessy vs Inu style.

Middle school in Japan goes up to grade 9, so yes, she was in middle school (she "graduated" from grade 9). So yeah, she'll be a tenth grader when she enters high school... though in Japan they just go by year level (i.e. high school first year, second year, or third year).

Ahem. XD I hope that didn't sound too know-it-all-ish. I was a bit disappointed with all the flashbacks - honestly, I feel like I've seen some of those flashbacks a good fifteen times or so repeated throughout the entire Inuyasha series - but I enjoyed the rest of the episode. Hojo failed to give her his second button... heh. And the battle with Naraku begins! Weeewt.

I think they should have just killed Kagome so that maybe in the next reincarnation we would have a better thing to watch.

This was pretty nice. It's crazy to think how history repeats itself. Next episode looks badass, well anything with Sesshomaru does anyway. Let's do this.

Yaaay, finally the final battle. But I'm a little miffed they left out the part where Byakuya asks Naraku what he wants to do with the jewel, to which he replies "Nothing at all." Isn't that important? :(

Oh well, on to the next one~

It's probably a good thing Shippo and Jaken were left behind but I think Kohaku could help out with his experience as a demon slayer and Naraku's servant.

And Naraku is up to his old tricks again by trying to pit Kagome and Inuyasha against each other. Still can't believe Inuyasha knocked Kagome over. For all we know t could be a bottomless pit or have spikes at the bottom!

Wait a minute...Kagome was in middle school this whole time?!? But...She was like 15 or 16 wasn't she? And how could she be so mature for a middle schooler? xP I thought those entrance exams she was taking were for college, not high school...

Lol InuYasha "should have just knocked Shippo out to begin with" xD

I bet if Kagome told InuYasha to sit it would have worked...

On a side note, that's a big spider. O_O

Why didn't Kagome make InuYasha sit? I mean she use it all the time to abuse InuYasha even when he did nothing wrong, but when her life is at stake this power doesn't exist anymore? This is dumb.

I wonder how the heck Kagome is able to go to high school, like I know there was a vacant spot but kagome skipped like a lot of school. In past episodes she was even failing tests and barely understood the material. She must be some kind of genious to pass that entry test

I liked the demonic, horror elements added later in the series, but wished they would have gone further with that. It's the last battle against the demon whose name literally means "Hell", need to make it even more creepy imo. It's obvious Naraku and the Jewel wants their souls and to make them suffer by themselves, alone, for all eternity.

the final "battle" is better than i excepted, truly masterpiece.

too bad for the whole flashbacks, but seems they had a point in that.

and kagome is literally useless without her spiritual powers...

So... Kagome bashes Inuyasha's face into the ground just for saying something that she doesn't like, but once he tries to kill her it's apparently forgotten? What a dumb plot point...

Damn. Kagome actually passed? This will make her final decision even harder.

Hojo really got friend zoned by Kagome. Poor Hojo. Hope he can find someone better for him. 

Naraku's final form is... a big-ass spider? I mean I see the reason but come on.

So Inuyasha transforms into a full demon again. Maybe the power of love will prevail like the 2nd movie? And maybe Kagome can try using that certain thing she likes to abuse.
