Kagome's emotions, I believe, grow more gradually. In general, she is nice and loving (e.g. Koga). I would say she falls in love that night, however she shows no jealously toward inuyasha or Kikyo before or after the Urasue event, and only gets possessive afterwards, when inuyasha leaves to look for Kikyo. However, she does summon her soul from Kikyo just before the arrow is about to penetrate Inuyasha, which is unusual. I believe she falls in love between meeting Miroku and inuyasha's fight with Sesshomaru. She has already had a little heart swoon from the night of the new moon, but she has grown to appreciate inuyasha and his character, which has been strengthened in the aftermath of the hell-painter. Following this, she develops a fondness for him and desires to be by his side throughout battle/injury/journey. In actuality, the transition is slow and the lines are hazy. Takahashi does an excellent job of weaving the love story into the narrative, but I'm curious as to what you guys think. Earlier? Later?
Kiky and Kagome had a tense relationship throughout the majority of the series. Kagome is envious of Inuyasha's continued emotions for Kiky, thus it's only right that her most memorable moment involves her greatest adversary. In Episode 151, "Kagome's Instinctive Choice," Kagome is forced to choose between saving Kiky and letting her die. Although they are more enemies than friends, Kagome does not hesitate to help Kiky, learning more about her history with Naraku and Inuyasha in the process. While her choice eventually sets up the climactic encounter in which Kiky succumbs to Naraku's miasma, it also enables her and Inuyasha to say their last goodbyes. This moment demonstrates Kagome's pure heart, as well as her fearless personality and feeling of devotion.
Inuyasha the Movie: Swords of an Honorable Ruler was released in 2003 as the third feature. In it, Inuyasha and Sesshomaru are compelled to collaborate in order to seal the wicked So'unga, their father's third sword, after it awakens from its sheath. Inuyasha the Movie: Fire on the Mystic Island, the fourth and final feature, was released in 2004. It follows Inuyasha and his pals as they defend a group of half-demon youngsters on an old magical island from four wicked demons.
âNot quite a demon; not quite human. Neither am I. That is it. Because there was no room for me, I was forced to find one on my own. And then it occurred to me. I had a place, but it was empty. I was unaware of any other way of life." - Rumiko Takahashi's InuYasha
