Inuyasha Anime Episode Summaries
Episode 1 -- The Girl Who Overcame Time and the Boy Who Was Just
Overcome.
Written by Secret Squirrel.
(The first three minutes of the episode take place in Feudal Japan.) A
creature with long, white hair and a red robe (Inuyasha) appears. He
destroys all weapons the humans impose on him and bursts into a shine.
This building is the shelter of the Shikon no Tama, or Jewel of the
Four Souls. He quickly steals it and exits the shrine. With this
jewel, Inuyasha says he can become a real demon. Kikyo, wanting to
stop him, shoots an arrow, which binds him to a tree. Kikyo is hurt
however, and because she cannot be healed, she instructs the town to
burn the Sacred Jewel with her so that it cannot be used for evil. The
scene ends with Kikyo’s body being burned with the Jewel.
(Modern Japan.) A teenage girl (Kagome) and her Grandfather are in a
room. Gramps explains to Kagome the history of the keychains he is
selling, but she is not very interested. Quickly changing the subject,
she asks him if he had remembered her birthday present. And it
is… a mummified hand of a water imp! Yum! At least, that’s
what Kagome’s cat, Buyo, thinks.
Later that night, we see shots of old objects on the family’s
property. Kagome explains that there are many legends about a sacred
tree and a well. Of course, she never listened to these legends…
until her fifteenth birthday.
The next day, Kagome begins to leave for school but stops when she
sees her brother, Sota, at the well. Buyo is in there somewhere, but
Sota doesn’t want to investigate because it creeps him out.
Frustrated, Kagome walks toward the well and finds the cat! (Or
rather, the cat found her.) However, there is still a sound of
something inside the well.
White flames burst out of the well, and drag Kagome into the well. A
centipede-like creature with many hands takes hold of Kagome and
begins rejoicing. We see shots of the creature’s lengthy,
skeleton. The creature says it will come back to life. Kagome screams
and extends her hand to push the creature away. Upon extending her
hand, she expels a mysterious pink light, which she has never seen.
The creature plummets down saying something about the sacred jewel.
The monster is gone.
She lands on the bottom of the well, asking herself is that scene was
just a dream. As she climbs up the well, she sees a white butterfly.
(Those aren’t in modern Japan!) She emerges from the well and is
not exactly at home. Worriedly, she scans the environment and sees the
sacred tree. She runs over to the tree, relieved, until she sees
“a boy” attached to it. (This “boy” has long,
white hair, and a red robe. Familiar to us, no?) Not knowing what it
is, she climbs up to it and feels its ears.
This, apparently, wasn’t such a good idea, as she is immediately
tied and brought to a town. The High Priestess Kaede enters to
inspect. She refutes the idea that Kagome is a spy, and remarks that
Kagome looks like her sister, Kikyo.
Kaede takes Kagome into her house and feeds her. She apologizes for
the rashness of the townsmen.
Just then, the centipede from the well attacks, looking for Kagome.
Realizing the town will be destroyed if she stays, Kagome flees to the
place where the light is shining (the Inuyasha forest). (Kaede wonders
how the girl can see the lights at the forest.) Kagome runs screaming
for help towards the forest, avoiding the demon behind her. Suddenly,
Inuyasha wakes up saying that he smells the woman who killed him.
During the chase, Kagome is propelled into the forest. She lands next
to Inuyasha.
Seeing her land, Inuyasha, somewhat perplexed, asks why Kikyo is
wasting her time. In a huff, Kagome stands up asking who Kikyo is.
Before she can say who she is, the creature appears again. The
townsmen appear and save her in time, but they can only hold the demon
back temporarily.
Kagome still has a problem though – Inuyasha still thinks that
she’s Kikyo. He eventually concludes she is not Kikyo, however,
because Kikyo was prettier.
The demon appears yet again, and grabs Kagome. The girl thinks fast,
and grabs onto Inuyasha’s hair during the struggle. (Ouch.) Once
again, the Centipede Monster asks for the sacred jewel. Inuyasha is
surprised at hearing this.
Kaede arrives on the scene and wonders how Inuyasha can be awake.
According to her, the spell Kikyo put on him 50 years ago was supposed
to be eternal.
The Centipede Monster manages to expose the jewel from inside Kagome
and take it out. (I think the monster bit her side? It was a little
unclear, since there was blood, but Kagome did not appear to be
wounded.) The jewel falls to the ground.
The demon binds Kagome to the tree with Inuyasha while it begins
absorbing the jewel. Instantly, the demon begins to transform. The
situation gets tenser. Inuyasha asks if Kagome can pull out the arrow
that binds him to the tree. Kaede shouts that that’s a bad idea.
Inuyasha responds by explaining that if he is not released, the
Centipede will kill them all. He then asks Kagome if she wants to die
here. In desperation, she makes the arrow disappear.
Inuyasha is now free and ready to fight. He swiftly attacks the
Centipede with his Iron Reaver Soul Stealer attack. This rips the
Centipede’s body through the center and turns it into multiple
pieces.
Kaede tells Kagome to find the flesh that shines, as that is the one
that holds the jewel. If the creature continues to possess it, it will
be able to regenerate. Kagome finds the jewel quickly and Kaede takes
it out. The remains of the Centipede’s body disintegrate.
Kaede hands the jewel to Kagome, saying that she is the one who should
possess it. Kagome asks why she should. (After all, she is just a 15
year old girl.) Before that can be answered, Inuyasha explains that
they will feel his claws unless they give him the jewel. The scene
then fades into the closing theme.
