Yashahime: Princess Half-Demon (2020) s01e01 Episode Script
Are kara no Inuyasha
1
His Excellency enters!
Are you the one they call
Princess Half-Demon?
HALF-DEMON GIRL - TOWA HIGURASHI
I am the Deputy Shogun of Kanto,
Ogigayatsu Hiiragi Danjo.
The name's Towa Higurashi.
Sorry, but I'm no Princess Half-Demon.
So she says, Sokyu.
My Lord, let me, if you will.
Princess Half-Demon,
I have here a book that you were carrying.
That idiot! Why'd she have to
bring that back with her?
Are the things written in here
to be the truth?
This "Reiwa" you hail from
What sort of land is it?
I can't say anything.
Or else I'd change history.
Do answer, Princess Half-Demon.
You know, you should take my advice
and let me go.
Things won't be so hot
when my friends get here.
Such nonsense.
There is something
I would like for you to see.
Is that a bike seat?!
You recognize what this is!
Indeed. It seems she knows something.
What's a thing like that doing here?
This was found when a clam fisher
was raking the river.
It was then presented to us.
There used to be rumors in
the Musashi Province
of a priestess who came
through the Bone Eater's Well
from a place called "Tokyo."
Tokyo? Well? Priestess?!
This was the saddle she used
to ride her mysterious iron wagon.
She and a half-demon named Inuyasha
traveled the land slaying demons.
What I'm about to share is a tale
that I heard over a decade ago.
It's been nearly six months
since I made the decision
to live with Inuyasha in the Feudal Era.
The days have been so peaceful,
as if the time we spent fighting
for the Shikon Jewel was all a dream.
"Inuyasha: Since Then."
Sango!
Hello, Kagome.
Oh, it's Kagome!
Kagome!
MIROKU AND SANGO'S DAUGHTERS
KIN'U & GYOKUTO
-Look, look!
-What have we got here?
We dug these up!
Lots and lots of them!
These are kudzu roots.
If we dry them, they make good medicine.
Wow, really?
Oh, that's right.
Here, I'll give you this.
What's that?
This is a kikyo root.
Kikyo root?
MIROKU'S WIFE - SANGO
MIROKU AND SANGO'S SON - HISUI
Kikyo is a very kind plant.
It helps with coughs and fevers.
Aw, what?
I wanted food.
Food, food!
Food, huh?
Come on, you two.
Don't give Kagome such a hard time.
Okay.
-The seven autumnal flowers?
-Yep.
It's from the Manyoshu, by the poet
Yamanoue-something-or-other
There, there. Don't cry, Hisui.
No crying, Hisui!
Sorry about that, Hisui.
I know I've said this before,
but Kin'u, Gyokuto, and Hisui
They all have very unique names.
It was Miroku's choice.
Miroku sure is very knowledgeable.
Speaking of which,
Inuyasha and Miroku are not back yet?
From what I hear, the demon
they're dealing with is a bit of trouble.
I see.
A landslide collapsed a nearby tomb,
and the demon that was sealed there
ended up getting out
Is this it?
It's just bones.
So many have been attacked
since the tomb collapsed.
And it's only their heads
that have been taken.
DELINQUENT MONK - MIROKU
-Miroku!
-Yes.
It's targeting us from close-by.
A DEMON SEALED BY KIKYO - ROOT HEAD
-Th-Their heads!
-It can't be
Tessaiga!
He did it!
Serves you right.
Thank you very much, good monk.
Hey! I'm the one who destroyed it!
Though it seems to have run away for now
Inuyasha, we aren't quite done yet.
Could you lead us to the collapsed tomb?
Here it is.
This is quite bad.
This is
Kikyo's arrow?
Inuyasha, would you know
anything about this?
Dunno.
Is that so. We should head back
and ask Lady Kaede, then.
That was a lousy village.
Boss, all the villages are, lately.
CAT DEMON - KIRARA
SANGO'S YOUNGER BROTHER - KOHAKU
Kirara!
This is
What happened here?
Root Head
Lord Sesshomaru.
I see.
So that demon energy came from Root Head?
Master Jaken.
Please tell me. What is this Root Head?
A worthless piece of vermin. Except
Except?
Except it's
-annoying.
-Huh?
Who, me?
There's no doubt.
This is my sister Kikyo's
Arrow of Sealing.
Kikyo's Arrow of Sealing?
Root Head is a demon
my sister sealed
shortly before meeting you, Inuyasha.
Why didn't Lady Kikyo purge
the demon with the Sacred Arrow instead?
Who knows?
At the time, she'd been dealing
with demons of all sorts,
but I think she was growing tired
of having to kill them.
That was also around the time
when she helped the bandit Onigumo,
who eventually became Naraku.
Root Head
was after my sister's Shikon Jewel,
much like how you were.
Who cares about me?
Shippo, Shippo!
Hey, Kin-Gyo, stop it!
I wonder what they're talking about.
As soon as they came back,
they went straight to Lady Kaede.
They're obviously discussing things
they don't want overheard!
And I was told to stay here,
in Lady Sango's house.
You too, Rin?
Maybe that's them?
-No! Stay back!
-Kagome.
Kikyo! Shikon Jewel!
Give it to me!
Oh, no!
What is that thing? Kagome!
Give me the Shikon Jewel!
Kagome!
Hiraikotsu!
Shippo. Take care of Kin-Gyo and Hisui.
S-Sure.
Sango!
Kagome!
You won't get away this time!
Damn it!
So it's made it this far, huh?
Yes.
-Kagome, are you okay?
-Y-Yes.
That demon called me Kikyo.
Wha
Inuyasha! What are you hiding from me?!
I-I wasn't trying to
Shippo, you bastard!
Inuyasha, Lady Kagome is being targeted.
I think we'd best tell her.
Tell me what?
It told us to hand over the Shikon Jewel.
Even though it's already been destroyed!
Since it had been sealed away
by Lady Kikyo's arrow,
it didn't know about
the Shikon Jewel's demise.
That demon is called Root Head.
Its roots burrow underground
and absorb nutrients from humans.
So it's not just me?
Aren't the local villagers in danger?
That's correct.
We must eradicate it from all six
villages surrounding the Sacred Tree.
Let's go, Inuyasha.
Y-Yeah.
She's not mad at me?
He didn't need to hide it.
So there you are!
So there you are!
It's pretty big, Kagome.
I know. Leave it to me.
Wind Scar!
Brother!
Kohaku!
Where's Sister?
She's with the children.
At Sister's house?
Yes. I wish I could be there, but
Understood.
Brother, you take care of
getting the remaining villagers to safety!
All right.
It's times like these
I realize just how powerless I am
without the Wind Tunnel.
Sister, are you okay?
-Kohaku!
-Kohaku!
Thank goodness
Yes, I don't know why,
but we're fine here
Umm
What, Shippo?
If you're just gonna stand there,
why don't you help us?
You buffoon!
Lord Sesshomaru wouldn't care
what happens to a human village!
Lord Sesshomaru!
Sesshomaru! He's why we've been safe
Kohaku, watch over Hisui for me.
What? Sister?
Let's go, Kirara!
Oh, no.
Hiraikotsu!
Sango!
It looks like you're having trouble.
Yeah.
He's multiplying underground.
Damn it, there's no end to this.
Hey, Inuyasha.
Has there been a battle here before?
Yeah. Neighboring provinces
had a skirmish here.
So this thing has plenty of food.
The roots burrow underground.
But where are they coming from?
Let's go, Kagome.
-Put me down, Inuyasha!
-What?!
Don't be ridiculous.
You're the target here!
That's exactly why!
All these roots here must lead to
Root Head's main body!
I'll become a decoy and
Like I'd let you throw yourself
into danger like that!
I bet you'd say "yes," if this were Kikyo.
See, I knew it.
-What?!
-No way
Is that
Kikyo's arrow?
Wait, Granny Kaede shot it?
I just shot the very same arrow
Sister had used to seal Root Head.
That should draw it out.
Root Head will definitely respond to it.
-Inuyasha!
-Yeah!
It's getting away!
Kagome!
I won't let you escape!
Kagome!
-Are you okay, Kagome?
-Yes.
What's that?
It must be Root Head's main body!
So it's shown itself.
Kikyo!
I'll eat you whole, Shikon Jewel and all!
For the record, my name is Kagome!
And one other thing. The Shikon Jewel
no longer exists in this world, idiot!
I'll finish you off. Take this!
Meido Zangetsuha!
-Kagome!
-I got it!
They did it! The land is being purified!
Yes.
Kagome will be fine even without
borrowing my sister's powers.
Hey, Kagome!
What is it?
You almost got eaten back there, dammit!
Yeah, but I also knew you'd save me.
Of course I'd save you, you idiot.
Yep. I trust you.
So you didn't have to hide the
whole Kikyo thing from me, either.
Inuyasha?
Are you upset after all?
I'm not upset. It's just
Sit, boy.
Have a bit more faith in me, will you?
This is somewhat nostalgic.
Let's go home. The kids are waiting.
Fate brought us together to
trust and care for each other,
allowing us to overcome our own destiny.
All I have left to do is to spend
these days with Inuyasha by my side.
The Bone Eater's Well
was in the Forest of the Tree of Ages.
It used to be a dumping ground
for demons that were slain.
Any bones thrown down the well
would disappear after some time.
That is how it came to be known
as the Bone Eater's Well.
However, it seems like
that well has been sealed,
so it eats no more bones,
and no one can pass through it.
And yet
You hail from Reiwa Village.
How ever were you able to
arrive in these lands?
Now, Princess Half-Demon,
if you would regale us with your tale
You know, don't you?
What will happen to the Shogunate?
The fate of our clan?
Your Excellency
What is it?
Run.
What?
-Hey!
-Intruder!
-You'll get hurt if you stay here.
-Who are you?!
-What is happening?
-Intruder!
Shut up!
They're so weak.
Come on Towa, we're going home!
Quit loafing around here.
DEMON SLAYER - SETSUNA
You are such a handful
Thank you, Setsuna and Moroha.
Who are you?!
Who are we? Well
I knew I smelled something
strange in the air.
So it was you, Yotsume!
Since you're here, I might as
well take you out, too!
Your attacking too soon!
An apparition?!
-Oh, shoot!
-You're open!
What a sore loser
Wait, Moroha.
He seems to know things.
We should nab him and make him talk.
Then we do have to chase after him!
Your Excellency.
I'll be taking this.
Who were they?
Oh, that's right.
And I'll be taking this, too.
NEW SOCIAL STUDIES AND HISTORY
Well, see you around!
NEXT EPISODE PREVIEW
Setsuna is my younger twin sister.
We were separated ten years ago,
but we finally meet again!
But why is she attacking me?!
Those are my only words for you.
That is why you will die tonight.
Moroha also appeared through
the Sacred Tree at the shrine.
What? They brought
some weird demon along, too?!
Next time on
Yashahime: Princess Half-Demon:
"The Three Princesses."
You also have a Rainbow Pearl?
