[00:01] ---
By the power of the Tree of Ages,
I now return to this world!
[00:07] ---
What is happening?
[00:16] ---
What is...
SIGN 14 YEAR OLD GIRL TOWA HIGURASHI TOWA'S STEPSISTER MEI HIGURASHI
[00:17] ---
Sis.
[00:19] ---
This smell.
[00:21] ---
Mei!
[00:26] ---
Oh, how strange.
[00:28] ---
Sis, what is that?
[00:31] ---
Could this smell be...
[00:44] ---
- Wha...
- Oh, dear.
[00:46] ---
That's... That's...
[00:49] ---
Yes! That unbelievably bright place
from my memories...
[00:54] ---
And this smell!
[00:57] ---
Setsuna!
SIGN DEMON SLAYER - SETSUNA
[00:58] ---
Wh-Who calls my name?
[01:01] ---
Damn it. I feel so weak.
SIGN BOUNTY HUNTER - MOROHA
[01:04] ---
Is it because I crossed through
the rainbow corridor?
[01:09] ---
Wonderful, just wonderful!
[01:13] ---
The Silver Pearl is here as well.
SIGN CENTIPEDE DEMON - MISTRESS THREE-EYES
[01:16] ---
Now each of my three eyes
will have a pearl!
[01:20] ---
Setsuna, I'll save you!
[01:34] ---
No way! My Kikujumonji broke!
SIGN THE DREAM BUTTERFLY
[03:21] ---
"The Dream Butterfly"
[03:24] ---
No way! My Kikujumonji broke!
[03:28] ---
Did you say Kikujumonji?
This is obviously a fake.
[03:33] ---
The blade pattern's completely different!
[03:36] ---
But...
[03:37] ---
Give it to me.
[03:39] ---
Give me the Silver Pearl!
[03:44] ---
Give it to me now!
[03:47] ---
My body won't...
[03:48] ---
"Silver" what?
What is she talking about?
[03:51] ---
Give it to me!
[03:53] ---
How dare you break
my Kikujumonji...
[03:57] ---
How dare you do that to Setsuna!
[04:00] ---
What?
[04:15] ---
I can't believe it.
[04:17] ---
She created a demon energy blade
with her own power.
[04:29] ---
Wait, did I do this?
[04:32] ---
Hey! What are you doing?
Hurry up and finish her!
[04:35] ---
I don't think that's possible...
[04:37] ---
This is not the time!
[04:41] ---
Sis!
[04:48] ---
You see?
[04:49] ---
If you don't hurry up,
they'll get eaten!
[04:53] ---
Mei!
[04:54] ---
Mei!
[05:08] ---
It's nothing personal.
[05:13] ---
Th-Thank you...
[05:15] ---
You saved us.
Thank you so much.
[05:19] ---
No need to thank me.
[05:21] ---
I'm sorry, Setsuna.
[05:26] ---
How do you know my name?
[05:28] ---
Who are you?
[05:30] ---
You don't remember me, Setsuna?
[05:32] ---
It's me, Towa.
You used to call me Sis.
[05:37] ---
Ugh, that was horrible.
I can finally move my body now.
[05:56] ---
Hey, welcome back!
[06:05] ---
Wait, what is that?
[06:15] ---
This is kind of nostalgic, isn't it?
SIGN MEI'S GREAT-GRANDFATHER - GRANDPA
[06:18] ---
Yes. It reminds of the times
SIGN MEI'S GRANDMOTHER GRAMMY
[06:21] ---
Inuyasha would come to visit Kagome.
[06:24] ---
Indeed.
[06:30] ---
Hey!
[06:31] ---
Hey, I can keep this, right?
[06:34] ---
Do as you wish.
[06:35] ---
All right! But man, what a trip.
[06:39] ---
Where the heck are we?
This whole place is as bright as day.
[06:44] ---
Setsuna, I'm sorry.
[06:47] ---
It's my fault, isn't it?
[06:49] ---
It's because I let go of you that day...
[06:52] ---
That's why you're acting this way, right?
[06:57] ---
Setsuna?
[07:00] ---
I do not know you.
Don't come near me if you value your life.
[07:04] ---
Take even one step, and...
[07:07] ---
I'll kill you!
[07:12] ---
What?
[07:17] ---
Stop running!
[07:18] ---
Hell no! You look like you're seriously
out to hurt me!
[07:21] ---
That's because I am!
[07:22] ---
Hey, cut it out, you two!
[07:25] ---
And Setsuna, stop acting like a kid.
[07:28] ---
What's the harm in
letting her near you?
[07:30] ---
Silence.
[07:31] ---
My name's Moroha.
[07:32] ---
My bounty hunter buddies call me
"Moroha the Demon Killer."
[07:37] ---
What's your name?
[07:39] ---
Towa Higurashi.
[07:41] ---
Towa, huh? Okay, Towa!
Are you really Setsuna's sister?
[07:45] ---
Of course I am!
[07:47] ---
I got separated from her
in the forest fire ten years ago!
[07:51] ---
So she says.
[07:53] ---
I've been alone since birth.
[07:55] ---
Oh yeah? But you're both half-demons.
[08:02] ---
See, I can tell just from
your demon energy.
[08:06] ---
Isn't that right, half-demon "Setsu"?
[08:10] ---
Plus, why else would a Rainbow Pearl
dwell inside your eye?
[08:15] ---
Which makes you
a half-demon, too, Towa.
[08:18] ---
What's a "half-demon"?
[08:20] ---
A half-demon is someone born
between a demon and a human.
[08:24] ---
You two share
really similar demon energy.
[08:28] ---
Even if you're the child
of a great demon,
[08:31] ---
having human blood halves your powers.
[08:34] ---
I'm guessing that's what
bothers Setsu the most.
[08:39] ---
And if I'm not mistaken, your dad's
the great demon Sesshomaru.
[08:45] ---
Is that right?
[08:46] ---
What? Who is that?
[08:48] ---
Well?
[08:49] ---
Don't know. Never met him.
[08:53] ---
Setsuna is the daughter of Sesshomaru?
[08:56] ---
So she's a half-demon?
[08:59] ---
No wonder she's so powerful.
SIGN VILLAGE ELDER PRIESTESS - KAEDE
[09:02] ---
Fourteen years ago...
[09:05] ---
Sesshomaru came here
and took his newborn twins with him.
SIGN INUYASHA'S OLDER HALF-BROTHER - SESSHOMARU
[09:11] ---
That was the last I saw of them, until...
[09:21] ---
One day, Setsuna came to me.
[09:25] ---
She told me that it was
"a rite of courage and cowardice."
[09:31] ---
I'll be in your care for a while.
[09:34] ---
"Rite of courage and cowardice"?
SIGN LEADER OF THE DEMON SLAYERS - KOHAKU
[09:36] ---
A lion is said to push their cubs
into the bottomless ravine,
[09:40] ---
and raise only the ones strong enough
to crawl back up on their own.
[09:45] ---
It is known as the
rite of courage and cowardice.
[09:48] ---
Is that what Sesshomaru
is doing to Setsuna?
[09:53] ---
Perhaps, though I can't say for certain.
[09:57] ---
Lord Sesshomaru used to help me a lot
back when I was a kid.
[10:01] ---
But even then, it was difficult to
understand his true intentions.
[10:08] ---
You said "twins." That means
there's another child out there?
[10:11] ---
I wonder.
[10:14] ---
Being uninformed half-demons,
[10:16] ---
it's very possible that she may have
already killed the other out of hate.
SIGN MASTER OF HIRAIKOTSU - HISUI
[10:23] ---
Oh, no.
[10:25] ---
If you truly are my older sister,
then prove it to me with your strength.
[10:29] ---
I don't need to prove anything,
because I'm not wrong!
[10:32] ---
Empty words. They mean nothing.
[10:35] ---
Come on, cut it out already!
[10:38] ---
Be quiet.
[10:39] ---
You're so stubborn!
[10:41] ---
Shut up.
[10:51] ---
Is that...
[10:52] ---
Yup.
[10:54] ---
The Hitokon chose its host.
[11:00] ---
Geez, how pathetic.
[11:02] ---
This is what happens
when you let your guard down!
[11:10] ---
Towa?
[11:11] ---
Stop it, Sis!
[11:14] ---
That's not the Towa
you know and love anymore.
[11:17] ---
You all should go hide somewhere!
[11:19] ---
O-Okay.
[11:20] ---
You too, Grandpa!
[11:21] ---
A-All right.
[11:24] ---
The Hitokon itself is nothing special,
[11:28] ---
but the problem is,
it can control the powers of its host.
[11:33] ---
Damn it, this is so annoying.
[11:37] ---
She looks just like her.
[11:39] ---
Just like who?
[11:41] ---
Her eyes look just like Kagome's.
[11:54] ---
Whoa!
[11:56] ---
I see, interesting.
[12:08] ---
So that's your demon power.
[12:11] ---
Then I'll treat you as a worthy opponent.
[12:15] ---
Get real, Setsuna.
Are you really going to kill your sister?
[12:20] ---
Anyone who opposes me is
an enemy of mine.
[12:24] ---
Cyclone Burst!
[12:38] ---
What?
[12:57] ---
Do not interfere.
[12:59] ---
Hey, Setsuna.
[13:00] ---
You're a demon slayer, aren't you?
[13:02] ---
You should at least have
medicine to weaken the Hitokon.
[13:21] ---
Scourge of Swallows!
[13:40] ---
Sis!
[13:42] ---
Are you okay? Wake up already!
[13:45] ---
Hey! What are you doing?!
[13:47] ---
Mei!
[13:48] ---
Oh, no!
[13:55] ---
Mei!
[14:00] ---
- Mei?
- What?
[14:01] ---
That bastard transferred over to the child.
[14:06] ---
M-Mei.
[14:12] ---
Mei, what's wrong?
[14:14] ---
Is she being controlled? Get it together!
[14:18] ---
Stay right there.
[14:22] ---
You figured a child
would be easier to control.
[14:25] ---
How foolish.
[14:26] ---
Hey, what are you...
[14:28] ---
Don't worry.
I will cut out the Hitokon.
[14:32] ---
You can't!
[14:35] ---
I won't let you scar Mei's face.
[14:39] ---
Oh?
[14:40] ---
I can't trouble this family
more than I already have!
[14:46] ---
Such naiveté.
[14:47] ---
What did you say?
[14:57] ---
Mei. This is my fault...
[14:59] ---
I'm so sorry, Mei.
[15:04] ---
As long as you're alive,
you'll always trouble someone.
[15:09] ---
Hey, stop it.
[15:10] ---
Mei!
[15:11] ---
It's fine.
[15:13] ---
It'll be okay, Mei.
[15:22] ---
Moon of the Resting Moth.
[15:42] ---
Did you kill them?
[15:44] ---
A resting moth's powder
only puts one to asleep.
[15:49] ---
Th-Thank you!
[15:52] ---
Right.
[16:07] ---
So you did have some slayer potion!
SIGN GRASS ROOT DEMON - HITOKON
[16:11] ---
The Hitokon, huh?
The bounty for this one's pretty small.
[16:16] ---
Well, maybe it'll be enough for lunch!
[16:19] ---
What's wrong?
[16:23] ---
So Mistress Three-Eyes, Setsuna,
and Moroha vanished near the Sacred Tree?
[16:31] ---
Indeed. Hisui, show Lady Kaede.
[16:33] ---
Yes. I found this attached to
the root of the Sacred Tree.
[16:38] ---
That's Root Head.
[16:40] ---
It is, isn't it?
I knew I had seen it before.
[16:45] ---
This is a demon we had slain
back when you were a baby.
[16:49] ---
If Root Head really did attach itself to the Sacred Tree,
then this could be a problem.
[16:55] ---
A demon tree's root can absorb
the powers of its host, right?.
[17:01] ---
Like the Hitokon.
[17:03] ---
Yes, but to attach itself to the
Tree of Ages, of all things...
[17:08] ---
Tree of Ages?
[17:10] ---
I've heard of the Sacred Tree
being called the Tree of Ages.
[17:15] ---
But why is that?
[17:17] ---
Kohaku, you know about the
Bone Eater’s Well, don't you?
[17:22] ---
Are you referring to the well that Lady Kagome
and Lord Inuyasha used to travel through?
[17:27] ---
It's been over fifteen years
since it's become defunct...
[17:32] ---
But according to Kagome, that well had
the power to travel across time.
[17:38] ---
Travel across time?
[17:40] ---
Kagome and Inuyasha simply described it
as going to "the other world."
[17:45] ---
The other world...
[17:47] ---
That well was made using
wood from the Tree of Ages.
[17:51] ---
And if Root Head was attached
to the Tree of Ages...
[17:57] ---
It may have absorbed
the Tree of Ages' ability...
[18:01] ---
...to cross into the other world.
[18:06] ---
So Setsuna and the others
may have gone to...
[18:09] ---
To "Tokyo," the village
Kagome originally came from.
[18:14] ---
Can they even come back
from a place like that?
[18:18] ---
I'm afraid it would be no easy task.
[18:33] ---
Is Towa asleep?
[18:34] ---
Yes. She said she was really tired.
[18:37] ---
Things sure have taken an interesting turn.
SIGN TOWA'S ADOPTIVE FATHER - SOTA HIGURASHI
[18:42] ---
I've told you about it before, didn't I?
[18:44] ---
That demons were real.
[18:46] ---
And I've always believed you,
so that's fine and all...
[18:50] ---
But this Kikujumonji,
on the other hand...
[18:53] ---
This was on loan from the museum...
SIGN TOWA'S ADOPTIVE MOTHER - MOE HIGURASHI
[18:58] ---
What should we do?
[18:58] ---
Daddy!
[19:00] ---
What's done is done!
We'll just have to keep holding on to it.
[19:04] ---
Mommy, listen.
[19:06] ---
More importantly, what about Sis?
We had a lot of trouble out there.
[19:09] ---
Sis really had some amazing powers.
[19:12] ---
I'd be lying if I said I didn't know...
[19:17] ---
Towa will be just fine.
[19:19] ---
She's always been the center of chaos.
[19:23] ---
The problem is actually those girls
who came from the other era, right?
[19:28] ---
That felt great.
[19:30] ---
I've never in my life
splashed hot water over my head.
[19:34] ---
That's great. It's getting late,
so how about turning in for the night?
[19:40] ---
Thanks, I'll do just that.
[19:44] ---
But dang, that felt great.
[19:48] ---
According to Mom,
that girl might be Kagome's daughter.
[19:53] ---
Oh, my. So that means she's our relative!
[19:57] ---
She might be, yes.
[19:59] ---
Then it'll be fine if they
stayed here for a while, right?
[20:04] ---
I don't mind.
[20:05] ---
Yay! I have three older sisters now!
[20:10] ---
Come on, just accept it already.
[20:13] ---
She had that much demon power.
[20:16] ---
She can't be lying about
being your older twin sister.
[20:21] ---
I don't have any memories
of when I was younger.
[20:24] ---
Besides, it's not something
I can simply accept.
[20:28] ---
There is no way someone who indulges
in slumber like that can be my sister.
[20:34] ---
I knew it.
[20:36] ---
You've never fallen asleep before, have you?
[20:41] ---
Bull's eye.
[20:42] ---
Falling asleep leaves you
wide open to attack.
[20:46] ---
It's common sense in the warring age.
[20:48] ---
No, that's not it.
[20:50] ---
It's not that you won't fall asleep.
You can't fall asleep.
[20:54] ---
Don't act like you don't know.
[20:56] ---
You got your dreams eaten
by the Dream Butterfly.
[20:59] ---
My dreams were eaten?
[21:03] ---
What an annoying curse.
[21:06] ---
A butterfly in the dream world
has escaped over to this world,
[21:10] ---
and now you can never fall asleep,
let alone ever have dreams again.
[21:17] ---
Setsuna can't fall asleep?
And she can't dream?
[21:22] ---
But she was fine back then...
[21:25] ---
All of this...
[21:26] ---
It's all because
I let go of her hand.
[21:32] ---
It's all my fault!
[21:36] ---
I bet you also tested the
resting moth's powder on yourself, right?
[21:41] ---
And you have no
memories of your childhood
[21:44] ---
because they were also stolen
by the Dream Butterfly.
[21:47] ---
And what of it?
[21:49] ---
In the warring age,
it works to my advantage.
[21:53] ---
Hey...
[21:54] ---
Setsuna!
SIGN NEXT EPISODE PREVIEW

Moroha plans to negotiate with Root Head
to pass through the corridor of time.
[23:35] ---
It's a pretty wild idea.
[23:37] ---
But for Setsuna to be able
to fall asleep and have dreams,
[23:40] ---
we have to look for the Dream Butterfly
in the Feudal Era.
[23:43] ---
However, we run into someone in the corridor.

supposed to look like a priestess?
