Kagome Higurashi, a modern-day high school girl, falls down an ancient well and travels to the Sengoku period (Feudal Japan). She accidentally shatters the Shikon Jewel (Jewel of Four Souls) and must team up with the half-demon Inuyasha to collect the shards before the evil Naraku does.

The core group consists of Inuyasha (half-demon), Kagome (priestess), Miroku (cursed monk), Sango (demon slayer), and Shippo (fox demon kit). They are often joined by Sango's cat demon, Kirara.

It is an Isekai (before the term was common), Adventure, Fantasy, and Romance series. It blends Shonen action with Shoujo-style romance and character dynamics.

Kagome is the modern-day reincarnation of Kikyo, a powerful priestess who died 50 years prior sealing Inuyasha. This creates a complex love triangle and spiritual connection between them.

The original anime ran for 167 episodes. A second series, 'Inuyasha: The Final Act' (Kanketsu-hen), ran for 26 episodes to adapt the manga's ending. There are also 4 movies.

The series is created by Rumiko Takahashi, one of the most famous and wealthiest manga artists in history, also known for 'Ranma 1/2' and 'Urusei Yatsura'.

Inuyasha wields the Tessaiga, a sword made from his father's fang that can slay 100 demons in one strike. He also uses claw attacks like 'Iron Reaver Soul Stealer' and 'Blades of Blood'. As a half-demon, he loses his powers on the night of the new moon.

Yes, 'Yashahime: Princess Half-Demon' follows the adventures of Inuyasha and Kagome's daughter (Moroha) and Sesshomaru's twin daughters (Towa and Setsuna).

The series is widely available on Netflix, Hulu, and Crunchyroll. It was a staple of Adult Swim/Toonami in the 2000s.

It was a gateway anime for an entire generation in the West. It is praised for its epic world-building, memorable soundtrack, and the compelling 'will-they-won't-they' romance between Inuyasha and Kagome.
