Original subtitles

So this is the demon tree Yomeiju.

Yes, though it's dead now.

It's said that, long ago,

it ate both demons and humans indiscriminately.

But fifty years ago, an esteemed priestess sealed it away.

New buds have sprouted.

We're worried that it may revive and begin eating people again.

I understand, I shall restore the seal.

- Thank you so much! - Thank you so much!

That happened a few days ago.

Since then, everybody's been too scared to approach Yomeiju.

Fresh leaves are growing.

The seal hasn't weakened, yet the tree is reviving?

There's a Shikon Jewel shard.

What?!.

Really?!

That means Naraku...

I dunno what Naraku's up to.

but he's being generous in spreading them around.

Indeed, but why is Naraku doing this?

That won't matter after I cut it down!

Wind Scar!

A barrier?!.

I didn't expect to run into you here.

Naraku!

I haven't tasted demon in ages.

Inuyasha, aren't you going to cut me down?

I am unable to move right now.

Of course, my heart isn't here.

You won't be able to kill me.

It flew away!

No! Naraku uprooted it!

That bastard! He absorbed Yomeiju!

He's gone.

So he had no intention of fighting us.

But I'm worried...

Why did Naraku take Yomeiju?

There must be a reason.

- After him! - Okay!

There's no mistaking it!

This is Moryomaru's scent!

That woman...

Lady Kikyo?

Kohaku, another bearer of the Shikon Jewel shard,

has appeared.

Lady Kikyo!

THE END OF MORYOMARU

Guess I was too late.

After that big of a fall...

I believe, you are Koga.

Are you also after Moryomaru?

Yeah.

You too, right?

Koga...

Eh?

Cease your pursuit of Moryomaru.

Man, you're as dangerous as I've heard.

I have no intention of taking your life.

I only need you to give me the Shikon Jewel shards in your legs.

What are you babbling about?

You should have noticed by now.

Your shards are being controlled by the will of another.

You should have experienced that sensation many times,

where your legs stopped moving in the face of the enemy.

I heard from Kagome.

It was the work of the soul of Midoriko,

who was some ancient priestess.

Midoriko's soul has joined with mine,

for the sake of defeating Naraku.

To defeat him, we must allow the Shikon Jewel to be completed

so it can be purified as a whole.

Your legs stop moving because

Midoriko is trying to give Naraku your shards!

If you lose your shards in the midst of battle.

you may lose your life.

So?

You want me to hand over my shards and run away?

I vow to bury Naraku. So...

Don't give me that!

Just to be clear, I hate Naraku's guts!

He killed dozens, hundreds of my fellow Wolf-Demon tribe!

How could I possibly run for my life now?!.

Were you aiming for my legs?!.

Too bad.

Oh, if I waste any more time here, I'll lose Moryomaru's trail.

See ya, Kikyo.

Lady Kikyo!

I wanted to prevent another sacrifice in this battle.

Let us pursue Moryomaru. Lady Kikyo.

Yes.

This scent makes my stomach turn.

This is Naraku's demonic presence.

He must be nearby.

Such terrible miasma!

He merely passed by them?

We'll have to be careful when approaching.

I've been looking for you, Naraku.

Moryomaru, I see that you long for my Shikon Jewel shards.

At this point.

you merely better me in the number of shards you possess!

It's futile.

I will not die, no matter how many times you shatter my body.

For my heart is inside you. Moryomaru.

I could say the same.

You cannot kill me when your heart is inside me!

That's right.

My death, Naraku, will mean your death.

You sound like you think you've won.

I knew this would happen when I let you out of my body.

What?

You knew this would happen?!.

Why would I allow my heart, my very life.

to walk outside in such a weak infantile form?

That was because I foresaw your betrayal

and attempt to overthrow me.

And as expected, you created an armor in Moryomaru.

No, not an armor. A fortress.

I'm impressed by how you've fattened yourself up, for my sake.

You don't know when to admit defeat.

Is that what you think?

Then let us find out.

The survivor shall be vindicated.

Lady Kikyo, a tremendous demonic presence is rising.

Yes, Moryomaru isn't alone.

Then Naraku is also there?

What's wrong, Naraku?!

You have no solution for besieging this fortress?!

That's enough, Moryomaru.

He is but an empty shell.

Give him his last rites.

It's over, Naraku!

I've consumed him.

I've won!

The shards...

Naraku and Moryomaru's shards...

- Are joining together. - Are joining together.

All that's left is to obtain the remaining shards.

The remaining shards?

They're both in the vicinity!

I didn't expect you to replace Naraku.

Wolf boy!

Koga! No! Run!

Don't worry, Kagome.

I'm a target already...

So I'll go on the offensive!

Such an admirable attitude.

Goraishi!

I can't deflect them!

Give up!

Adamant Barrage!

That had less of an effect than a mosquito bite.

Run, wolf boy!

But at a speed I can follow!

Huh?

We need to bring him down to the ground!

I'll use the Dragon-Scaled Tetsusaiga to

cut through Moryomaru's demon vortex!

Hurry, Inuyasha!

Work with Koga before Moryomaru

completely absorbs the Shikon Jewel!

There you have it.

I don't like being used as a decoy!

Let's go!

It'll catch up if we run too slow!

We should follow them.

Let's go, Kirara.

Sango, there's another shard.

Kohaku is nearby!

Kohaku is?

He's probably with Kikyo.

That's right.

If Koga's shards are taken, Kikyo will use Kohaku's shard.

If that happens, Kohaku's life will be...

Let's go, Sango.

You've swallowed the Shikon Jewel

and you still can't keep up with my legs!

Your back is wide open!

Dragon-Scaled Tetsusaiga!

What?!. I can't see any demon vortices!

There's a backflow of demonic energy!

What are you doing, pup?!.

Stop messing around!

Shut up! Get moving!

Forget that! I can't count on you!

Goraishi!

I can't break through!

This won't be like our previous encounter.

Damn! I can't see any demon vortices!

Is the Infant's Fuyoheki hiding its demonic energy?!.

Outta the way, pup!

Hit him right here!

Run, wolf boy!

Ouch. What the hell was that?!.

We can't do anything if you get caught!

Damn it! My legs won't move!

Wolf boy!

Koga's shards have been entangled.

We must make haste, Kohaku.

Wait, Kikyo!

Kohaku.

Sister.

Kikyo, you intend to use Kohaku's Shikon Jewel shard, right?

Kohaku, isn't there another way?

Must you die?

Sister, I've already decided.

It is the only way to destroy the Shikon Jewel.

Please understand.

Are you telling me to watch Kohaku, my own brother, die?

I chose this path!

I can't accept that.

Move, We have no time.

I refuse.

If you insist, you'll have to fight me.

Sango...

Kagome, you should be able to sense it.

Koga's shards are being drawn into the Shikon Jewel.

That's why I came to see you.

Please, Kikyo.

Wait here.

A hollow attempt to buy time...

Inuyasha has been frantically trying to grow stronger...

so he could defeat Naraku before you!

So there would be less lives sacrificed!

But Naraku cannot be defeated by a blade.

That doesn't mean that Inuyasha's efforts have to be in vain!

I'll protect Koga's shards!

I promise!

So don't use Kohaku's shard!

Sango, stay with Kohaku.

Kagome!

Kagome, what can you possibly do?

I...I want to believe in Inuyasha!

Hey, wolf boy!

You'd better not be unconscious!

No chance!

Then do as I say!

There's still a way!

It's over.

I shall swallow you with your Shikon Jewel shards.

Listen up!

Use the Goraishi on me!

I don't get it, but here it comes, pup!

The Dragon-Scaled Tetsusaiga and the Goraishi:

neither can break through that shell alone!

But...!

Tetsusaiga is absorbing the Goraishi's demonic energy!

I see!

If the energy from the Dragon-Scaled Tetsusaiga

and the Goraishi is joined...

It'll pack twice the punch!

It's no use.

My demon vortex is hidden by the Fuyoheki.

I don't need a demon vortex!

The part of you that's trying to suck Koga in has to lead inside!

Curse you.

Miasma!

I-I can't breathe.

Bastard! Don't pass out!

Inuyasha!

Sorry, Kagome!

Curse you!

Let's go, Inuyasha!

Yeah, just a little more!

What is it? What's wrong?!.

Moryomaru hasn't absorbed the Shikon Jewel.

What's that?!.

I don't know why, but he definitely hasn't.

What is the meaning of this?

Shouldn't my armor be almighty after consuming

Naraku and the power of the Jewel?

You still haven't noticed?

Your Moryomaru isn't using the power of the Shikon Jewel.

Naraku, so you were alive.

Foolish creature...

It never realized that it was being consumed from within...

D-Damn it!

My legs are still...

You can attempt to consume me from the inside.

but you cannot break through my barrier.

What?

How is that passing through my barrier?

These tendrils belong to a demon tree known as Yomeiju.

It dissolves barriers to feast on demons.

I had this specially prepared for you.

Accept it and return to my body.

Curse you.

If I am to be consumed by you...

That's...!

The Infant is coming out!

Now!

Adamant Barrage!

You're willing to abandon Moryomaru to escape from me?

But you are doomed to die the second you step out.

When that happens, you will also be finished, Naraku.

You're thinking, if you're going to die.

you intend on taking me with you?

Bastard.

Goraishi...

Koga!

Kagome...

You people are as irritating as ever.

Kirara!

Kagome!

Moryomaru!

You bastard!

Moryomaru no longer exists.

Naraku, so you survived!

This is the end.

The Infant disappeared!

Did Naraku absorb it?

Koga, your body will dissolve

and your Shikon Jewel shards will fall into my hands.

My legs won't move anymore?

However, we can only protect you once from that which controls

the Sacred Jewel shards in your legs...

That which is not meant to be in this world.

Kirara, please.

Take me close to Koga!

Kagome!

I have to save Koga!

I promised Kikyo!

The ancestral spirits that protect Koga

are being overwhelmed by Naraku's demonic presence.

If I can purify that arm...

Please hit!

I missed!

As pathetic as ever.

My legs are burning.

Move.

Naraku's heart, the Infant?

It's fine! I'm being protected!

The Infant!

Koga!

Those are...

He was protected by the Wolf-Demon tribe!

Kagome's arrow granted power to the Wolf-Demon tribe spirits.

You aren't getting away!

Everyone get back!

Wind Tunnel!

Curse you, monk!

Naraku!

It ends now!

Miroku!

Good monk!

Now is my only chance to destroy Naraku!

No, good monk!

Close the Wind Tunnel!

I can't do that!

You will die from the miasma's toxins before you suck me in.

I'm not going to destroy you for my own sake!

This is also for Sango and Kohaku!

Mi-Miroku!

Hang in there, right arm!

Good monk!

Master Miroku!

Miroku!

Monk, damn you...

You're after my heart!

Naraku! You've lost!

He sucked in the Fuyoheki.

No, Miroku! You'll die!

Miroku! That's enough!

As foolish as ever, Inuyasha.

If you hadn't stopped his Wind Tunnel.

he would have sucked in my heart.

You shall regret missing

this perfect opportunity to destroy me.

He ran away!

Good monk!

How awful...

Sango...

Forgive me.

Master Miroku refused to close the Wind Tunnel for Sango's sake,

so Kikyo wouldn't use Kohaku's shard.

The wounds from the miasma extend from his Wind Tunnel.

Almost like spider legs...

If the Wind Tunnel had been closed any later.

the monk wouldn't have survived.

You can save him?

I'll attempt to purify him.

But a body that's taken in so much miasma.

most likely cannot be fully restored.

Please!

We're counting on you. Kikyo.

Good monk!

Byakuya of the Dreams is after Kohaku's Shikon Jewel shard!

That is when Sesshomaru appears!

Meanwhile, Kikyo is suffering from being contaminated by Naraku.

Naraku has noticed that I intend to purify him with the Shikon Jewel.

We must go to the sacred mountain, Mount Azusa, to save Kikyo!

Next time on Inuyasha The Final Act: "The Mausoleum of Mount Azusa"

Why can't I approach?

Do I have doubts?

THE MAUSOLEUM OF MOUNT AZUSA
