    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...

    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,

    in the Feudal Era.
