The story deepens the bonds between the growing group of allies while introducing new threats and challenges in feudal Japan. This edition compiles the chapters that originally appeared in the third volume of the Japanese release, maintaining the series' blend of action, romance, and supernatural folklore.
In Inu-Yasha: A Feudal Fairy Tale #3 ("The Dark Castle"), Kagome faces the stress of a makeup math exam, clashing with Inuyasha over his insistence on returning her to the feudal era. Meanwhile, a possessed woman’s accident triggers a dangerous shift, setting off a chain of events that blur the line between worlds. Written by Rumiko Takahashi, Mari Morimoto, and Gerard Jones, with art by Takahashi and Wayne Truman, and a striking cover by Takahashi and Hidemi Sahara, this issue deepens the tension with quiet moments that hint at greater unrest.
In "Tsukumo No Gama," Jo and the others confront a lord whose gentle demeanor hides a centuries-old toad demon feeding on village maidens. When Kagome spots a shard of the Shikon Jewel within him, the truth begins to surface—beneath the man's guise lies a malevolent spirit with a hunger that stretches back generations.
In "Mask of Flesh," Kagome finds herself pursued through the modern world by a woman haunted by a cursed Noh mask, its ancient power drawn to the sacred jewel shards she carries. The story weaves a tense, haunting tale of past and present, where a forgotten spirit seeks to reclaim what was stolen long ago.
In "The Broken Body," Kagome faces the stress of a makeup math exam while Inuyasha’s stubbornness pulls her between worlds, testing their fragile balance. When a possessed woman crashes her car, a sudden shift forces a new host to take hold—unraveling something far older than either of them can control.
In "Face Off," Kagome and Sota find themselves caught in a terrifying confrontation when the cursed Noh mask—swollen with the remains of five victims—awakens on the shrine grounds, driven by a hunger for the Shikon Jewel shards. As the mask's eerie presence looms, the siblings must face a nightmare born of ancient malice, testing their courage in a battle that blurs the line between spirit and flesh.
