From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Naraku's Insidious Plot)

The episodes of the Japanese anime television series Inuyasha are based on the first 36 volumes for Rumiko Takahashi's manga series.[1] It follows an eponymous half-demon and a high school girl Kagome Higurashi on a journey, alongside their friends, a young fox demon, Shippo; a lecherous monk, Miroku; a demon slayer, Sango; and a demon cat, Kirara, to obtain the fragments of the shattered Jewel of Four Souls, a powerful jewel hidden from Kagome, and keep the shards from being used for evil, including by the half-demon Naraku.

Produced by Sunrise, the series aired in Japan on Yomiuri TV from October 16, 2000, to September 13, 2004. It also aired on Animax's English-language networks in South Asia and East Asia. The English dub of the series aired on Cartoon Network's nighttime programming block Adult Swim from August 31, 2002, to October 27, 2006. In Canada, the series aired on YTV.

A sequel anime television series, titled Inuyasha: The Final Act, aired from October 4, 2009, to March 30, 2010. The sequel series adapted the final volumes of the manga.[2][3][4]
