Summary[]

Sesshōmaru, Jaken, and A-Un took Rin to the Valley of Ryūkotsusei where Sesshōmaru's and Inuyasha's father took a dormant state to Ryūkotsusei as Jaken felt surprised that he was Ryūkotsusei and he thinks that he has been killed Inuyasha, and Sesshōmaru believed it is.

Kōga and his two comrades see a group of panther demons heading toward somewhere. However, Kōga dismisses any concerns since it does not involve them. While Rōyakan is asleep, he woke up as see a group of panther demons too.

At Kaede's village, Inuyasha feels like that Kagome's late for three days so he came to get her. So he came to the Higurashi shrine and waited with Buyo, and Grandpa Higurashi as Sōta and Ms. Higurashi arrives and saw Inuyasha came, he asked where Kagome is they said that she's still at school. Kagome leaves and saying goodbye to her friends and arrives at the shrine. Inuyasha plays with Buyo as arrives Kagome until she felt surprised that Inuyasha have arrive to get her, as her mom asks to have dinner.

While Miroku, Sango, and Shippō wait, Hachi has arrived and warned them about the panther demons. Miroku was curious that they're looking for Kagome, and Kaede asked what do they want, Karan answered that she wants the shard of the Shikon Jewel. The rest of panther demons came and start to attack. Kaede use an arrow to scare them away and the panthers go on a retreat. As they left, Sango knew that it's a good that Kagome go home like she did, Miroku agreed and she must stay a little longer and stay away from the panthers as Shippō said that Inuyasha went to get her.

As Inuyasha and Kagome have returned to the Feudal era, Miroku Sango, Shippō, and Hachi, have warned them about the panthers. Meanwhile, one of the panther leaders go provoking Sesshōmaru, as the panther apparently holds a deep grudge against his family and wants to settle the score. Sesshōmaru rises to the challenge. Sesshōmaru tells Rin to stay with A-Un until he along with Jaken come back. They encountered the first time (the second time for her friends) until she gets kidnapped by the demon-panthers, and her friends speed to her rescue. Kōga joins in the pursuit.

As they near the panthers, they lose their scent, and Inuyasha tries to use the Red Tessaiga to break though the possible barrier there.

Notes[]

  • This episode, and the rest of the Panther Devas episodes are all anime filler.
  • Sesshōmaru displays some very unusual behaviors this episode:
    • When Jaken and Rin are fishing, Sesshōmaru is seen sitting down and watching them rather than wandering around as he normally does during their meal-times. (Sesshōmaru himself was never shown to eat at all throughout the entire series.)
    • When Jaken tries to convince him to accept Rōyakan's help, Sesshōmaru resorts to placation to silence him (saying Jaken is all the help he needs) rather than concussive force.
