Original subtitles

Miroku and Sango are taking too long!

I'm sure they're having trouble with that bone-collecting demon!

Damn! It had to happen now of all times...

You can't do anything about it, there's a new moon.

I shouldn't have let the two of them go by themselves.

I can see it! It's that mansion!

Be careful, Sango!

That is a tremendous cloud of poison.

Good monk, you must not use the Wind Tunnel to suck it in!

Hiraikotsu!

What?!

I see. An exquisite bone.

It's trying to eat Hiraikotsu!

Stand back, Sango!

Good monk!

Wind Tunnel!

Okay!

Thank you, good monk!

Hiraikotsu...

The scar from the miasma...

Pathetic, I can't even endure the poison of a weak demon.

I was searching for some prime bone to help my ill father recover.

It seems I've finally found one.

I knew at first taste.

This Hiraikotsu was formed from many different demon bones.

The best medicine, for me.

Don't be ridiculous!

Now throw it again!

Sango! We should pull back for now!

It's useless. There's nowhere for you to run.

SANGO'S FEELINGS, MIROKU'S RESOLVE

Smashing Top!

Let's hurry, Inuyasha.

Damn it, the new moon is still out?

I shall consume you along with Hiraikotsu!

We're breaking out, Sango.

Good monk, are you using the Wind Tunnel again?

Curse you! Trying to swallow me from the inside?!

Poison!

Good monk, that's enough!

Good monk!

A futile attempt.

I told you already!

There's nowhere for you to run.

I'll start by consuming the bones of that monk.

Fine.

I'll hand over Hiraikotsu.

I want you to promise me something in return:

spare the good monk's life.

Nonsense.

You still don't understand your current situation?

The result will be the same whether you obey or resist.

You do not have a choice.

You will die and Hiraikotsu will belong to Father.

I see.

Then I've made up my mind.

This demon-slaying poison salve is strong enough to dissolve Hiraikotsu.

Once I've spread it on Hiraikotsu...

Take this!

Father?!

Good monk!

Curse you!

How dare you slay Father!

Adamant Barrage!

Miroku! Sango!

You okay?

Sango...

Good monk, it's over.

Forgive me, Hiraikotsu.

Sango?

It's fine.

I knew this would happen when I applied the poison.

Forgive me, Sango.

My inability to do anything only caused you trouble.

You risked your life when you used the Wind Tunnel to help me.

So we're even.

But Sango...

How are you going to fight without Hiraikotsu?

Don't give up so easily!

There's gotta be a way to fix it!

Exactly!

Myoga!

Now, Lord Inuyasha, I shall introduce you to one who can...

...fix Hiraikotsu!

The Master of Potions?

Yes.

A demon sage who administers herbs and poisons, just as his name suggests.

This Master of Potions can remove the poison from Hiraikotsu?

Most likely.

However, that's only if the sage takes a fancy to you.

That's an incredible waterfall.

Hey, Myoga, this waterfall stinks of alcohol.

That's because it is alcohol!

This is...

The place is littered with jugs.

Lord Inuyasha, move a jug over here.

Dump out the contents.

Like this?

Th-This person is...

The Master of Potions?

Isn't he just a drunk old man?

Hey, wake up!

Remove the poison from your weapon?

Yes, we heard that you would be able to do so, Master.

Let me have a look.

Can you fix this?

A poison salve?

You applied some harsh stuff.

I refuse to fix this thing, even if it were fixable.

- Huh? - Huh?

This weapon is worn from much use.

You've been fighting with it for a long time, right?

Yet you applied this vicious poison.

That doesn't sit well with me.

Bastard! You don't even know the circumstances.

Damn you...

On top of that, I'm hungover and don't feel too well.

That's enough, Inuyasha.

The Master is right.

I have no excuse to offer.

You're giving up, Sango?

I'll fix it.

Hey. why did you suddenly change your mind?

I thought this belonged to you.

Lovely, I like you.

We're lucky that this Master is kind to girls.

He must be a good person at heart.

Isn't he just a perverted old man?

Young lady, stick out your hand.

What are you doing?

You misunderstand.

We can't have you messing around.

I was examining how much strength she had in her legs and waist.

I agreed to fix your weapon.

but in reality, you are the one who must fight.

Fight?

Yes.

Now. hand over your Hiraikotsu.

Hey, it's dissolving!

Because that's poison.

Poison? Aren't you going to fix it?

Hiraikotsu will be fixed when this poison turns into a cure.

What am I supposed to do?

I'll need you to slay the demons inside this jug.

The poison in Hiraikotsu's jug will turn into a cure

if you pacify the demons inside.

In other words, if you aren't able to slay the demons.

Hiraikotsu will dissolve into nothing.

Understood.

I'll do it.

Sango.

Sango!

Don't worry.

Hey, is it really okay to trust this drunken sage?

Why are you saying this now?

I'll do whatever it takes if it will bring Hiraikotsu back.

How strange, I can breathe.

I just need to slay all of these?

Hold on, Hiraikotsu.

I promise to save you!

They're too hard! A sword has no effect!

I can't see a thing.

I wonder if Sango's okay.

Hey, hey.

Why are you all looking in the jug?

Man, I'm so bored.

Why don't you drink with me?

Say, how about you pour me my booze?

Shut up, you drunkard!

Now, don't get so worked up.

There.

This is alcohol!

Sure is.

Hey, Myoga!

Not you too!

I'm not drunk.

I'm watching over Sango.

You can see Sango if you drink some?

Absolutely, positively!

He's right, I can see her.

See?

Um, aren't you seeing things?

No, this is the Master of Potion's magic brew.

It may allow you to see inside the jug Sango entered.

Inuyasha, is Sango all right?

Looks like she's having a rough time.

Say, why don't you come out?

This is strange.

They don't intend to kill me?

But their eyes are filled with rage.

What is going on with these demons?

Master of Potions, how much longer until Hiraikotsu completely dissolves?

How much longer?

Oh, it might already be too late.

You plan on entering to help her?

It's useless.

You won't be able to reach Sango.

I ain't drunk.

You're drunk.

I ain't drunk!

Why are there two Kagomes?

What do you think you're doing?!

See? You'll be spit out from a different jug.

Besides, Monk,

you've got something bigger to worry about.

What are you doing?!

That's what I'd like to ask you.

You've got poison eating through you, do you not?

Vicious poison, to boot.

I ain't drunk!

Why are there three of you now?

Right. Yeah, yeah.

- Come over here. - Hey, I can't breathe!

Why? You don't want the others to hear this?

Please keep this a secret.

Show me your right arm.

So you were able to tell.

Oh, poison from miasma.

The poison inches toward my heart every time I suck more in.

It's spread significantly.

Then I bet sucking in that poison is very painful for you.

Actually, I think my tolerance for poison has weakened.

Well? Are you interested in taking medicine?

What?

As things stand, even if Hiraikotsu is repaired.

Sango might sacrifice Hiraikotsu again to save you.

- Why? - Huh?

Why did you apply poison on us?

You're...

It appears that Hiraikotsu was created from the bones of many demons.

I'm amazed that you can tell.

I can see many things.

You're Hiraikotsu!

Sango is currently facing the souls of the demons used to create Hiraikotsu.

But you told Sango to slay those demons...

Not exactly.

I told her to pacify the demons.

In other words, calm them?

Well, back to your issue.

This is the medicine.

However, it is also a strong poison at the same time.

Hiraikotsu...

We have always fought by your side.

We believed that there was a bond forged through battle.

And yet,

you poisoned us!

Hiraikotsu...

If you drink this,

you will be released from all pain

when you suck in miasma or poison.

Meaning that I will no longer feel the pain, right?

I wonder what they're talking about.

Inuyasha?

Kagome, stay here.

That's right. You will no longer feel pain.

That is all that will happen.

The wounds from the miasma will not heal.

In other words-

I'll drink it.

I'm not done talking yet.

I already know what you want to say.

It's poison.

Yes, it's certainly poison.

You'll be able to fight without feeling any pain from miasma or poison,

but the wound from the miasma will spread,

and eventually, you'll lose your life.

You drunk sage!

How can you offer that stuff?

Stop, Inuyasha.

I understand the implications.

My body is already...

I know.

The scent of miasma from your body's been growing stronger.

In that case...

What will happen to Sango if you die?

Why don't you resist?

Didn't the Master of Potions tell you...

...to slay us?

I can't do that.

I...

Hiraikotsu!

I wish to fight by your side again!

Then swear!

Swear that you will never betray us again.

Swear that you will abandon the human man

the next time something happens.

Then we shall return as Hiraikotsu!

Forgive me, Hiraikotsu.

I cannot make that promise.

Why not?!

I won't be able to live if he dies.

If you're willing to sacrifice your life for the sake of a human man.

we shall take it now.

If you drink this, you won't hesitate to use the Wind Tunnel.

That just means you'll die sooner.

Inuyasha,

are you telling me to allow myself to be protected and not fight?

If I can't use the Wind Tunnel, Sango will only push herself harder.

You can't stand being protected by a woman?

Yes, Sango is probably trying to protect me,

while risking her life.

But I can't let that happen!

Don't let your stupid pride-

Listen to me, Inuyasha!

I am not rushing to my death.

My decision whether or not to drink this medicine

will determine how I live.

I will fight to survive.

and protect Sango!

Miroku...

What's wrong? Can't argue with him?

Shut up, I can't beat this guy with words.

Inuyasha, I'm sure you already know.

but don't tell Sango or Lady Kagome about this.

I won't tell them.

but you gotta promise me something in return.

Don't use the Wind Tunnel when it isn't needed.

Sango might forgive you if you waste your life.

but I sure as hell won't.

I know. Thank you.

Sango, this is your last chance.

Swear!

Swear that you will never betray us again!

I can't do that.

Even if we tear you apart?

Hiraikotsu, I cannot commit to a false promise.

You're putting your life on the line?

Does that monk mean that much to you?

He does.

It hurts.

It's like my body is burning up...

Hey! Why did he fall over?

Hey, what's wrong?

This is bad. It's not done yet.

There!

It was the only way to keep that girl away!

Really...

I don't want anyone to touch him until he's adapted to the poison.

So let me handle this.

Inuyasha, what about Master Miroku?

Oddly enough, he couldn't hold his liquor.

So that's what happened...

Hurts, doesn't it? Do you regret your decision?

No regrets.

Soon, I will no longer feel any pain.

Once that happens...

Sango, that monk is being consumed by miasma.

He is but a burden upon you.

The good monk has risked his life many times to save me.

That is why you'll throw your life away to save him?

Foolishness.

I have no intention of throwing my life away.

What?

I will live together with the good monk.

The good monk gives me the strength to live on.

So Hiraikotsu, please lend us your strength.

Sango.

Sango.

Sango!

Hiraikotsu!

The water in the jug is clearing up.

That means the poison has become a cure?

We are demons.

We cannot understand human affection or empathy.

However, we just felt the monk's resolve.

What?

Therefore, we shall support you.

We shall fight by your side again!

Hiraikotsu, thank you!

All of my herbs and poisons are connected.

Monk, the poison which entered your body

changed the poison in the jug into a cure.

How do you feel?

Much better.

It's unbelievable.

It seems that she finished too.

Good monk!

Sango!

Miroku...

You understand, right?

The monk's body hasn't recovered.

He merely can't feel the pain.

The damage from the miasma hasn't healed.

Yeah, but I should still thank you.

Master of Potions!

You've helped restore Hiraikotsu to the way it was!

I'm truly grateful!

The way it was, huh?

This Hiraikotsu has endured my herbs and poisons.

It's not the "way it was" at all.

Huh?

You won't understand until you fight.

Don't be surprised by the change.

Meido Zangetsuha was originally my technique!

Only one practitioner is needed...

Especially if the other is an imperfect blade like Tenseiga!

Begone to the underworld!

Lord Sesshomaru's Meido has been absorbed by Shishinki's Meido!

Sesshomaru, draw Tenseiga!

Something might happen!

Next time on Inuyasha The Final Act: "A Complete Meido"

Tenseiga, are you telling me to fight together with Tetsusaiga?

A COMPLETE MEIDO
