☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThe 56th volume of Viz's Inuyasha series continues the climactic final battle against Naraku, as the shard-hunting quest reaches its endgame. This collected edition compiles the later chapters of Rumiko Takahashi's epic feudal fairy tale, focusing on the emotional confrontations and resolutions for Inuyasha, Kagome, and their allies.
In "Amassing For Battle," Naraku surrenders his soul to the Shikon Jewel in a desperate bid to avoid Kagome’s purification, setting off a chain of events that threatens to destroy Kaede’s village. As his colossal demonic form begins to collapse toward the settlement, the stakes reach a terrifying peak—only the story’s characters know what comes next. Written by Rumiko Takahashi, Mari Morimoto, and Gerard Jones, with art and inks by Takahashi, and a cover by Takahashi and Yuki Ameda, this 2011 issue delivers a pivotal moment in the battle for the jewel’s fate.
In "Collapse," Naraku makes a desperate choice, surrendering his soul to the Shikon Jewel to save Kagome from having to destroy him. As the massive, dying demon begins to fall toward Kaede's village, the weight of his final act hangs in the air—just as the fate of the village trembles in the balance.
In the final clash of fate and fury, Naraku’s reign of deceit crumbles when Sesshomaru exposes his true nature, and Kagome’s arrow pierces the Shikon Jewel—purifying it and ending his physical form. But even in death, Naraku’s malice lingers, reaching through the veil of the Meido to ensnare Kagome in a deadly, otherworldly trap.
In "The Well Transformed," Kagome vanishes through the Bone Eater's Well, taking the portal with her into both the 15th and 20th centuries. Inuyasha, unwilling to lose her again, risks everything by opening another meido warp in a heart-pounding search across time.
In "High School Life," Kagome is suddenly back in twentieth-century Tokyo, surrounded by her family and friends as she resumes high school—except something feels off. As the familiar routines begin to unravel, she starts to question whether the world around her is truly real.
In the heart of a cursed shrine, Inuyasha battles through shadowy demons to reach Kagome, their bond tested by distance and danger. With his arrival, Kagome finds the courage to face the Shikon Jewel—and the choice that could change everything.
