InuYasha
Synopsis: Kagome Higurashi's 15th birthday suddenly turns when she is tightly pulled by a demon to the old well of her family's sanctuary. Brought to the past, when demons were a common vision in feudal Japan, Kagome is persistently hunted by these vile creatures, longing for an item she carries unknowingly: The Shikon Jewel, a small sphere that maintains extraordinary power.
In the midst of this situation, Kagome meets a half-demium boy named Inuyasha who confuses her with Kikyou, a maiden of the sanctuary he seems to resent. Because of his resemblance to Kikyou, Inuyasha gives Kagome a violent aversion. However, after realizing the terrible circumstances in which they are, he sets aside his hostility and gives him a hand.
Unfortunately, during a struggle for Shikon's jewel, the miraculous object ends up broken into pieces and spread across the earth. Fearing the disastrous consequences of this accident, Kagome and Inuyasha departed in a challenging search to recover the fragments before they fell into the wrong hands.
