Inuyasha synopsis

Kagome is a modern student in Japan. Never the guy who believes in myths and legends, her world changes dramatically when one day she is transported back in time. There, in ancient Japan, he discovers more of these dusty ancient legends by discovering that they were completely real and that his fate is specifically linked to a legendary creature: a canine half-demon named Inuyasha.

The same trick of fate also connects them both with the Shikon jewel or the "jewel of the four souls". But beware of demons, because only a fragment of the jewel can give the user unimaginable power.
