[00:06] ---
    Hmm...
[00:07] ---
    GRANDPA
[00:08] ---
    – I'm home, Grandpa!
    – Hmm?
[00:11] ---
    Ah, Mei. Welcome back.
[00:13] ---
    We're home.
[00:16] ---
    GRAMMY
[00:16] ---
    Oh, my. I wonder
    if something happened again.
[00:19] ---
    It's been happening a lot lately,
    hasn't it?
[00:19] ---
    MEI HIGURASHI
[00:21] ---
    Hmm.
[00:22] ---
    Grandpa?
[00:24] ---
    Hmm.
[00:25] ---
    What's the matter?
[00:28] ---
    Oh, my. Again?
[00:29] ---
    Oh! Grammy, I promised to meet up
    with Itsumi, so I'll be going now!
[00:34] ---
    There seems to be a lot going on,
    so be careful.
[00:38] ---
    I will!
[00:41] ---
    There are disturbing shadows
    on the trunk of the Sacred Tree.
[00:45] ---
    This is an ominous sign.
[00:49] ---
    Nothing bad will happen
    to Kagome or Towa, right?
[00:53] ---
    I don't know.
[00:55] ---
    I don't know, but...
[00:58] ---
    something even worse
    might be approaching.
[01:05] ---
    I can see the Grim Comet so clearly.
[01:10] ---
    OSAMU KIRIN
[01:10] ---
    I'm the foreign entity in this world,
    but no one else can see it.

[01:14] ---
    – Hello!
    – Huh?
[01:16] ---
    Hup!
[01:17] ---
    See you later, Mr. Kirin!
[01:19] ---
    – Oh, yes, hello.
    – Bye-bye!
[01:23] ---
    I cannot bear the thought
    of young lives such as hers

[01:28] ---
    being wiped out by the Grim Comet.
[03:16] ---
    SESSHOMARU
[03:17] ---
    At this rate, he will be robbed
    of his Haku, which will kill him!
[03:18] ---
    TOWA HIGURASHI
    SETSUNA
[03:21] ---
    Absorb the demon energy, Kyuyokon!
[03:25] ---
    Stop.
[03:27] ---
    If you don't...
[03:28] ---
    RIN
[03:28] ---
    you'll die.
[03:40] ---
    What's the matter, Towa?
[03:48] ---
    Towa!
[03:51] ---
    AKURU'S PINWHEEL
[03:52] ---
    "Akuru's Pinwheel."
[03:57] ---
    What's wrong, Towa?
    Pull yourself together!
[03:59] ---
    JAKEN
[03:59] ---
    What in the world is going on?
[04:01] ---
    This is...
[04:03] ---
    Her Kon has been drained!
[04:05] ---
    Her Kon?
[04:06] ---
    Your Kon is what allows
    your heart and mind to function.
[04:10] ---
    In other words, it is your soul.
[04:13] ---
    What happens when your Kon is gone?
[04:15] ---
    In short...
[04:17] ---
    it means that your mind is dead.
[04:21] ---
    Towa!
[04:23] ---
    No way.
[04:24] ---
    This is too awful!
[04:26] ---
    Please, wake up!
[04:29] ---
    Towa!
[04:30] ---
    Towa!
[04:34] ---
    You're...
[04:35] ---
    The sound of a pinwheel
    means that Akuru is here.
[04:35] ---
    AKURU
[04:38] ---
    Akuru?
[04:40] ---
    He is a Time Spirit that is
    only visible to the Dog-Demon Clan.
[04:44] ---
    I can only hear the sound of his pinwheel.
[05:09] ---
    What?
[05:10] ---
    Towa!
[05:26] ---
    Are you all right, Towa?
[05:29] ---
    Yeah. I'm fine.
[05:33] ---
    Half-Demon Princesses...
[05:36] ---
    it seems that Akuru
    has acknowledged the both of you.
[05:41] ---
    The Spirit of the Tree of Ages!
[05:49] ---
    YOUNG RACCOON DOG DEMON — TAKECHIYO
    YOUNG FOX DEMON — SHIPPO
[05:54] ---
    MOROHA
[05:54] ---
    I wonder if Sesshomaru is all right.
[05:58] ---
    He's fine.
[05:59] ---
    KAGOME
[06:00] ---
    How can you tell?
[06:02] ---
    I don't smell any blood.
[06:02] ---
    INUYASHA
[06:07] ---
    He probably hid within the Tree of Ages.
[06:09] ---
    Hmm.
[06:13] ---
    Moroha, did you know?
[06:14] ---
    Huh?
[06:15] ---
    I came from the other world
    through this well.
[06:19] ---
    What?
[06:22] ---
    Whoa.
[06:24] ---
    And this place...
[06:27] ---
    is a very important place
    for me and Inuyasha.
[06:33] ---
    A-A-Ah...
[06:36] ---
    The taste of the outside air
    is really nice after so long!
[06:44] ---
    Here. Take this.
[06:49] ---
    What's this?
[06:51] ---
    We made this for you.
[06:56] ---
    After we ran into you before,
    Inuyasha and I decided to make you one.
[07:01] ---
    Before?
[07:02] ---
    You were flying through the air
    at incredible speed, remember?
[07:06] ---
    Oh!
[07:07] ---
    It's Mom and Dad!
[07:10] ---
    So that really wasn't an illusion.
[07:15] ---
    It's made from...
[07:16] ---
    Ow!
[07:18] ---
    It's made from Inuyasha's hair
[07:20] ---
    and things we gathered
    at your grandpa's grave.
[07:23] ---
    What the hell are you doing, Kagome?
[07:28] ---
    I see.
[07:31] ---
    Your current bow is probably
    too small for you anyway.
[07:37] ---
    I'm sure that it'll protect you!
[07:40] ---
    Thank you!
[07:43] ---
    As you have heard,
[07:45] ---
    the Grim Comet is about to come
    crashing down in the Reiwa era.
[07:50] ---
    SPIRIT OF THE TREE OF AGES
[07:50] ---
    Destroy the Grim Comet
[07:53] ---
    and remove the foreign entity.
[07:55] ---
    The foreign entity?
[07:56] ---
    Are you talking about Mr. Kirin?
[07:59] ---
    You haven't much time.
[08:01] ---
    You must hurry and
    head to the Windmill of Time.
[08:05] ---
    As always, you like to order us around.
[08:07] ---
    I don't like it.
[08:10] ---
    The fate of this world lies in the hands
    of you Half-Demon Princesses.
[08:15] ---
    I'm counting on you...
[08:23] ---
    Towa...
[08:24] ---
    Setsuna...
[08:27] ---
    I'm glad you were able
    to survive until now.
[08:32] ---
    And...
[08:34] ---
    I'm very sorry I haven't
    been able to help you...
[08:37] ---
    all this time.
[08:39] ---
    – Mother?
    – Mother?
[08:41] ---
    Please don't apologize.
[08:44] ---
    Right now...
[08:46] ---
    I'd like to hug the both of you!
[08:49] ---
    But that's not possible at the moment.
[08:57] ---
    I had wondered why...
[08:59] ---
    Lord Sesshomaru took you away
    soon after you were born...
[09:04] ---
    but now I know.
[09:18] ---
    The two of you are the daughters
    of Lord Sesshomaru!
[09:22] ---
    There is something you must do right now.
[09:27] ---
    We know.
[09:29] ---
    We will destroy the Grim Comet
    in the other world!
[09:32] ---
    But how are we supposed
    to travel through time?
[09:35] ---
    The Windmill of Time can be found
    in front of Her Ladyship's manor.
[09:39] ---
    She might know something.
[09:42] ---
    Her Ladyship?
[09:43] ---
    I'm referring to
    Lord Sesshomaru's mother.
[09:46] ---
    I shall show you where it is.
[09:47] ---
    – Understood.
    – Understood.
[09:52] ---
    Well, Mother...
[09:54] ---
    we'll be going now!
[09:55] ---
    – Towa!
    – Yes?
[09:57] ---
    – Setsuna!
    – Yes?
[10:00] ---
    Please make sure to come back alive!
[10:03] ---
    – We will!
    – We will!
[10:05] ---
    And also...
[10:07] ---
    please allow me and Lord Sesshomaru
    to give you two a big hug!
[10:16] ---
    It's a promise!
[10:18] ---
    This way!
[10:21] ---
    Well, then...
[10:22] ---
    We'll be going now!
[10:43] ---
    Lord Sesshomaru...
[10:45] ---
    this was...
[10:47] ---
    for the best, wasn't it?
[10:56] ---
    – There he is!
    – There he is!
[11:00] ---
    Curse you, Sesshomaru.
[11:03] ---
    Where are you?
[11:04] ---
    KIRINMARU
[11:06] ---
    Too bad. You'll be taking me on instead.
[11:10] ---
    You guys, stand back!
[11:11] ---
    I'll be fine.
[11:13] ---
    Moroha, you stay hidden.
[11:15] ---
    Mom! Dad!
[11:17] ---
    I survived this long
    without running away.
[11:20] ---
    I'm fighting too!
[11:22] ---
    Very well!
[11:24] ---
    Don't go running away, crying!
[11:28] ---
    But don't push yourself, either!
[11:30] ---
    I won't!
[11:32] ---
    Begone!
[11:34] ---
    I don't have time to be playing with you!
[11:36] ---
    Shut up!
[11:38] ---
    Wind Scar!
[11:42] ---
    Don't interfere with my plans!
[11:45] ---
    Go! Sacred Arrow!
[11:48] ---
    Take this! Adamant Barrage!
[11:57] ---
    The Dog-Demon's descendants
    just continue to get on my nerves.
[12:03] ---
    I won't hold back against
    women and children anymore.
[12:07] ---
    I will put an end...
[12:11] ---
    to your clan and all its followers!
[12:23] ---
    Go!
[12:35] ---
    I...
[12:36] ---
    I of all people...
[12:38] ---
    chose to dodge it?
[12:42] ---
    A FEUDAL FAIRYTALE —
    YASHAHIME: PRINCESS HALF-DEMON
[12:47] ---
    A FEUDAL FAIRYTALE —
    YASHAHIME: PRINCESS HALF-DEMON
[12:56] ---
    I'm done playing around!
[12:58] ---
    I could say the same thing!
[13:01] ---
    This demon energy is just perfect!
[13:05] ---
    Backlash Wave!
[13:09] ---
    Damn you!
[13:11] ---
    What's with that guy?
[13:13] ---
    He cancelled out
    Inuyasha's Backlash Wave!
[13:16] ---
    Kirinmaru is ridiculously strong!
[13:19] ---
    – Sacred Arrow!
    – Sacred Arrow!
[13:20] ---
    – Take this!
    – Take this!
[13:22] ---
    Wind Scar!
[13:28] ---
    I won't allow...
[13:31] ---
    any further acts of insolence!
[13:42] ---
    We were saved by Tessaiga's scabbard.
[13:48] ---
    That was a close one!
[13:51] ---
    How scary.
[13:52] ---
    What incredible demon power!
[13:55] ---
    Moroha!
[13:56] ---
    Towa! Setsuna!
[13:58] ---
    We're going to the other era
    to destroy the Grim Comet!
[14:03] ---
    What did you say?
[14:04] ---
    Okay! Got it!
[14:10] ---
    If I'm not mistaken...
[14:11] ---
    your name is Akuru, right?
[14:16] ---
    Whoa!
[14:18] ---
    What's the big idea?
[14:20] ---
    Akuru is telling you to go with them!
[14:22] ---
    – What?
    – Get going!
[14:25] ---
    But...
[14:28] ---
    They're your friends, right?
[14:31] ---
    Yeah!
[14:33] ---
    This way!
[14:34] ---
    Towa! Setsuna!
[14:36] ---
    Let's go!
[14:36] ---
    – Okay!
    – Okay!
[14:38] ---
    You're not going anywhere!
[14:43] ---
    I won't let you
    lay a finger on my daughter.
[14:50] ---
    I'll carry you there!
[14:52] ---
    Takechiyo!
[14:55] ---
    Hey!
[14:56] ---
    Do you intend on leaving me behind?
[15:06] ---
    I wonder how Lady Towa
    and the others are doing.
[15:09] ---
    I wonder as well.
[15:11] ---
    The fact that I'm still alive
[15:11] ---
    RION
    RIKU
[15:14] ---
    means that Lord Kirinmaru
    still hasn't been defeated.
[15:17] ---
    Th-That's true.
[15:22] ---
    What?
[15:23] ---
    Miss Rion!
[15:27] ---
    Miss Rion!
[15:28] ---
    What's the matter?
[15:30] ---
    Pull yourself together!
[15:33] ---
    My body...
[15:35] ---
    is unable to move anymore.
[15:37] ---
    No way!
[15:45] ---
    Rion!
[15:47] ---
    This is no time to be distracted!
[15:50] ---
    I don't have time
    to play around with you any longer!
[15:55] ---
    Hit the target!
[16:00] ---
    I missed?
[16:01] ---
    Where the hell did he go?
[16:06] ---
    Just as I thought.
[16:08] ---
    Kirinmaru is bringing about
    the Degenerate Age.

[16:15] ---
    You had almost completed
    the one thousand–day training...
[16:18] ---
    necessary to defeat him.
[16:19] ---
    SANGO
    MIROKU
[16:20] ---
    No.
[16:21] ---
    This battle that is about to occur
[16:23] ---
    is the perfect way
    to wrap up my training.
[16:31] ---
    Let's go, Miroku.
[16:34] ---
    Let's do this.
[16:37] ---
    By the way, have the kids been doing well?
[16:42] ---
    It seems they are!
[16:48] ---
    Demon Slayers...
[16:49] ---
    OGIGAYATSU HIIRAGI DANJO
[16:50] ---
    I've heard rumors that a great demon
[16:52] ---
    by the name of Kirinmaru is trying
    to bring about the Degenerate Age.
[16:56] ---
    Is this true?
[16:57] ---
    KOHAKU
[16:58] ---
    He is too powerful for us to handle.
[17:01] ---
    Your Excellency, Princess,
    I implore you...
[17:05] ---
    to get away from here.
[17:07] ---
    Does this mean
    that even you cannot slay him?
[17:11] ---
    - It'll be all right!
    - Huh?
[17:13] ---
    PRINCESS AIYA
[17:14] ---
    The Demon Slayers have Hisui and Setsuna!
[17:18] ---
    If you all work together,
    I'm sure things will work out!
[17:22] ---
    Isn't that right?
[17:23] ---
    Am I right?
[17:24] ---
    That's definitely the case!
[17:26] ---
    HISUI
[17:27] ---
    Princess, you can't be serious.
[17:31] ---
    This was given to me by the shogun.
[17:33] ---
    It is a great blade
    that can purge evil spirits...
[17:35] ---
    known as the Kikujumonji.
[17:37] ---
    I shall bestow it unto you.
[17:39] ---
    Do your best to defeat Kirinmaru!
[17:43] ---
    That's out of the question.
[17:44] ---
    Kirinmaru is—
[17:46] ---
    Please accept it, Chief.
[17:48] ---
    Huh?
[17:50] ---
    I've heard from Setsuna
[17:51] ---
    that Towa has some sort
    of connection to that sword.
[17:56] ---
    It might prove useful
    in slaying Kirinmaru.
[17:59] ---
    Is that so?
[18:01] ---
    How about it, Demon Slayers?
[18:03] ---
    In that case,
    we shall happily accept your offer.
[18:06] ---
    Good. We're counting on you,
    Demon Slayers.
[18:09] ---
    – Yes, sir!
    – Yes, sir!
[18:11] ---
    Miss Rion!
[18:13] ---
    Please wake up!
[18:15] ---
    What in the world has happened?
[18:17] ---
    Miss Rion!
[18:19] ---
    I thought so.
[18:22] ---
    I figured her artificial body
    was reaching its limit.
[18:30] ---
    Lord Kirinmaru!
[18:32] ---
    Rion...
[18:34] ---
    no one cherishes you more...
[18:38] ---
    than I, your father, Kirinmaru.
[18:46] ---
    Rion's Kon may be sealed
    within these bones and grave soil...
[18:52] ---
    but as time passes,
[18:53] ---
    she will expend the Haku
    required to move that vessel.
[19:03] ---
    You won't get any thanks for this.
[19:06] ---
    I wasn't expecting any.
[19:09] ---
    But do you mind chatting a bit?
[19:12] ---
    You can't be serious, Lord Kirinmaru.
[19:17] ---
    I'm thinking of going
    to the other time period soon.
[19:22] ---
    Rion...
[19:24] ---
    I'd like you to come with me.
[19:29] ---
    You guys...
[19:31] ---
    you're pushing me around
    way too much today!
[19:34] ---
    VILLAGE ELDER PRIESTESS — KAEDE
[19:36] ---
    I'm at my limit!
[19:43] ---
    Ugh.
[19:45] ---
    I've worked too hard today!
[19:49] ---
    It's been a long time
    since we've been here, hasn't it?
[19:53] ---
    K-Kagome?
[19:55] ---
    And Inuyasha!
[19:58] ---
    You're alive?
[20:01] ---
    Granny Kaede!
[20:03] ---
    I've come back.
[20:06] ---
    Granny Kaede, I'm sorry
    for being away for such a long time.
[20:11] ---
    There's no need
    to be concerned about that.
[20:14] ---
    More importantly,
[20:16] ---
    you should hurry up and evacuate
    the villagers to a safe location.
[20:20] ---
    What's going on?
[20:21] ---
    Is there going to be another war?
[20:24] ---
    No.
[20:26] ---
    It's not a war.
[20:29] ---
    Something worse might happen.
[20:38] ---
    I can see it!
[20:39] ---
    That's Lord Sesshomaru's mother's manor!
[20:48] ---
    That's...
[20:50] ---
    The Windmill of Time!
[21:01] ---
    SESSHOMARU'S MOTHER
[21:07] ---
    Huh?
[21:09] ---
    What a strange-sounding crow.
[21:11] ---
    You're right.
[21:12] ---
    What are they?
[21:14] ---
    Crows?
[21:15] ---
    I suppose... they're crows.
[21:25] ---
    What?
[21:27] ---
    The crows disappeared.
[21:29] ---
    Oh, you're right.
[21:31] ---
    How strange!
[21:33] ---
    Yeah.
[21:34] ---
    Carrion Crows?
[21:36] ---
    They supposedly
    went extinct 500 years ago.

[21:41] ---
    Demons that never existed
    within the world of Reiwa

[21:44] ---
    have started to appear.
[21:46] ---
