Not as dramatic as I would have liked it but still a great episode. Poor Jaken not even noticed by Sesshomoru. LOL

After all these years its almost over. I'm almost sadden but it but at the same time I'm glad its getting the end it deserves.

It seems like the last episode will mainly be the epilogue. There is more than enough time for a kiss. I hope that it happens, if not I'll flip!

Can't wait for next week.

finally a great ep:D it seems everyone returned to normal:D Sesshy rocked!
Naraku is getting depressed which is good, because i want him to go to hell.

This was a nice ride while it lasted. I'm glad that they decided to finish the series instead of just leaving it the way it was. Next week's episode is going to be great.

Oh man. Epic episode ending. So everyone's all together to beat Naraku's ass.

....the only thing I'm sad about is not seeing Koga there :/// Ah well. Not that he'd be able to do much at this point anyways....still.

Hmmm... Hold that thought... I think the battle is put on hold for a moment because Inuyasha has to save Kagome from what ever Bakuya did to her. Could we see a reverse curse from the 2nd movie except she can't use her arrow and Inuyasha has to do something... maybe kiss her to break it ;) Then the fight happens... ;) That might be what is going to happen ;) --- Randy

I think the show will be much better if Sango and Miroku died they are as useless as Koga in this fight. Well now the fight is pretty much over there is no way to run and hide this time Naraku.

Inuyasha: "And we're not missing a single person!"

Me: "Oh, I guess Kikyo and Kouga don't really matter anymore..."

But still a great episode.

Kouga poor guy, he was really forgotten, maybe due to his lack of power?[no offense to Kouga fans, ofc].
As for Kikyo, dont worry, she´ll appear probably in another flashback next episode, because she is crucial for the destruction of Naraku. Kikyo will always be there, even if it is a memory. i bet bastard Naraku is gonna remember her!
die bastard dieeeeeeeeeeeeeeee, why doesnt he die already, damn. [again, no offense to Naraku fans].


Next ep gonna be great!

Well, Kikyo's dead so in a way her not being there is completely inevitable. But Koga's alive and kicking, and although he may be semi-useless without his shikon shards, he's still one of their companions. D: So when Inu said that I was like, "RAWH YOU D<" although he is sort of right, eh...



So! Naraku's definitely dead next episode, right? :D I'm glad the anime followed the manga quite faithfully, and that the series itself will finally be able to come to a close.

As for the episode, so somehow Kagome got her brain upgraded? And Inuyasha got yet another powerup? But in the end Shippo saved the day? That was some clever trick there to show how useless those main characters are, that just was awesome.

I can't say this was a good episode, but it was above average for the show. Take that as you will. I wonder if Byakuya severed the part of Kagome that is Kikyo's incarnation or some nonsense like that. I can't really think about what else it would be.

That was my thought when Inuyasha said his line about not missing a single one. Koga's missing, and even without his jewel shards, he'd be more help than Rin. Though needing ground to stand on and not having a flying 'pet' would kinda put him at a disadvantage. He still has that weapon that the ancestor wolf spirits granted him.
Would have been neat to see that play some sort of part in the story.

Kikyo is technically there, both in Kagome being a reincarnation, and her 'light' being the reason Kohaku is alive right now.

(would be amusing if Kagome bludgeons Inuyasha for forgetting Koga after all is said and done)

This episode was all over the place, but that's what I expect if you're inside the belly of a giant demonic spider xD

How fitting that they are inside a spider which is the curse mark of Onigumo that crazy bandit. Yes, I'm just realizing this now when I should've noticed 2-3 episodes ago ^^

I really didn't get what Kagome was saying to Naraku. Please don't tell me Naraku's going to turn out to be a good guy or that we should take pity on him because he has no friends which is why he wanted the Shikon Jewel. That would leave a bad taste in my mouth.

Bwahahaha, the day when Sesshomaru openly relies on Inuyasha. Seriously.

Wait, Naraku had an actual reason for playing around with everyone for almost 200 episodes? Hahaha, but I like how there's an attempt to humanize Naraku.

Pretty cool episode with everyone finally assembling and working together with their own powers. I kind of wish Kouga was also here, even if he doesn't have as much power without his shards, he would have deserved to be here.

So almost everyone has assembled in the final battle against Naruku. Too bad Koga couldn't be there to avenge his clan, because he doesn't have as much strength.

Well it took Sesshomaru's character arc and Sango's character arc completely getting trashed to get here, but now it's the final battle. I liked how there were some horror elements building in Final Act, but the manga+anime stopped short of going all the way. Pretty disappointing overall.

unlike the previous episodes this one felt to me little slow, still good though.

i don't like inuyasha's development along the series at all, he changed from tsunadre anti-hero character from the first series to typical shounen character...

Guess Inuyasha found his ultimate technique (which is actually Sesshomaru's) and now Naraku can be defeated. It's about time to end this... mediocre finale.

Kagome is really asking for Naraku's motivation at this point? I mean it is a good question. But at this point, it doesn't really matter. The bastard has done enough evil to never get forgiveness. 

Shippo ended up being useful. 

Only 2 episodes left.

Who knew that words from Kagome would get under Naraku's skin. He totally lost it and snapped lmao.

Yet another upgrade for Tetsusaiga. Has to be the last one. That thing has like 20 upgrades at this point.

Judging from what's been told in this episode, Naraku likely has some sort of 'means to an end' kind of motivation that he believes justifies his actions. But whatever it is, it's going to be a factor that makes Naraku's morals more ambiguous and adds a new perspective to the entire story.
