InuYasha [Inu-Yasha] #28

In "Inside the Darkness," while human Inuyasha fights for his life against Jyakotsu, Miroku and Sango listen as an old tale unfolds—revealing how Hakushin once fell prey to temptation in a moment of weakness, drawn into Naraku’s shadow. The story weaves past and present with quiet intensity, exploring the weight of choices and the lingering echoes of betrayal.

In "The Pulse," Inuyasha races toward Naraku’s hidden lair after defeating Jyakotsu, while Renkotsu seizes the shard from the fallen demon. Meanwhile, Kikyo offers peace to Hakushin, confronting the weight of his past.

In the aftermath of Kikyo’s final act, Hakushin finds peace—only for Mount Hakurei to erupt in a storm of demons. With Renkotsu dead and Bankotsu claiming his shards, the battle for Naraku’s fate intensifies as he turns his gaze toward Inuyasha.

In "Corridor's End," Bankotsu faces off against Inuyasha in a desperate clash as the mountain collapses around them, the air thick with dust and danger. Meanwhile, Miroku and Sango fight their way through the crumbling inner caverns, drawn toward a dark, unseen pit where Naraku waits in silence.

In "The Two Auras," Kagome and Koga push forward with a daring assault on Naraku’s hidden stronghold, while Bankotsu and Inuyasha clash in a brutal, relentless fight. Meanwhile, Kagura holds Miroku and Sango at bay as Naraku recovers, the tension thick with unspoken danger and shifting loyalties.

In the heart of a cursed mountain, Inuyasha and Koga are swallowed whole, leaving Kagome and Shippo to press on alone. They stumble upon Miroku and Sango trapped in a vast, otherworldly birthing chamber, where Naraku twists the remains of dead demons into something monstrous and alive.
