Kagome Higurashi quotes from InuYasha

Kagome

The villages- They think Jinenji's been eating people. Maybe he is different but that doesn't mean that he's guilty.

Inuyasha

But that's what it does matter when you're different! Nobody trusts you! You're always the first to be blamed, and it is always, always you're fault!!

Kagome

I have to get Kikyo out of there! If don't, Inuyasha will keep protecting her. He would never ever let her be hurt, no matter how it hurts me. You're conscious. Can you stand?

Kikyo

You little fool. By coming here, you risk Inuyasha losing you forever.

Kagome

What are you saying? Inuyasha's trying so hard to save you, but you...Kikyo.

Naraku

So this is the woman who restored me to life. I might not have had this new body at all if not for her.

Kagome

Yeah right, loser! She did it to save Inuyasha, not you, so wipe that stupid smile off your face!!

Naraku

And yet I still know her to the very woman who followed you in death fifty years ago.

Inuyasha

No!! Don't you dare!! Don't you touch her!! Not now or ever!!

Kikyo

Naraku appears frightened of you. He tries to control me with a Sacred Jewel shard, hoping I might be turned against you.

Kagome

The Jewel shard in your chest.

Kikyo

Surely the priestess who once took guard of the Sacred Jewel has not sunk so low as to be controlled by a mere shard.

Kagome

I can't believe my Jewel shards were taken.

Inuyasha

Stop worrying about it, Kagome. It's not like she stole all the pieces or anything. We're just gonna have to find some more, that's all.

Kagome

But...

Miroku

I suspect it's because Kikyo was the one who stole the Sacred Jewel shards.

Shippo

Uh, what can he do when the culprit's a woman he's been in love with?

Inuyasha

Listen, you morons! If you think I'm protecting Kikyo, you got another thing thing coming!! You think I'm goin' soft on her, too, don't you!!? Then speak up!!

Inuyasha

So you're the sword-smith who forged Tetsusaiga?

Indeed. I forged Tetsusaiga from a fang that your father gave me. Only certain circles of the finest blade-swinging demons are acquainted with my work.

Inuyasha

Certain circles?

Kagome

I think that's a polite way of saying he's not very famous.

Sango

Who is that?

Miroku

Inuyasha's older brother.

Kagome

I was right. He is the one who's after you.

Exactly! So protect me!

Sesshomaru

So you absolutely refuse?

Be quiet, you ungrateful mongrel! You know as well as I do, I already made you an excellent sword! The famous sword that you now wear- the Tenseiga. I also forged from a fang given to me by your father. He clearly instructed the eldest brother should have the Tenseiga, and the youngest brother would have the Tetsusaiga! That was your father's last wish. It is a great sword of swords. No greater and no better than the Testsuaiga! You should learn to respect and love it!

Kagome

So that old man also made Sesshomaru's sword?

Miroku

Though, come to think of it, I never seen Sesshomaru unsheathe his sword in any of the battles yet. Have you?

Kagome

No. You're right.

Kagome

Totosai, I been thinking about Sesshomaru's sword. Is it really as powerful as the Tetsusaiga like you said?

The Tenseiga? Its abilities are unlike any I've heard of before. When your father first commissioned me to forge it, I shuddered at the very thought of its immense powers.

Inuyasha

It's a blade that doesn't cut? So how are you supposed to fight with a sword like that?

The Tenseiga is not a sword used against foes. To put it simply, it is a sword of healing.

Kagome

Healing?

The Testsuaiga is a sword that defeats the powerful, and the Tenseiga is a sword that has the ability to save the lives of the weak.

Sango

It saves lives?

If the bearer has kindness of heart towards humanity, then the Tenseiga has the power to save a hundred people in one sweep.

Kagome

Kindness of heart?

Miroku

So the Tetsusaiga can slay a hundred demons in one sweep, and the Tenseiga can save a hundred people in one sweep?

Sango

But how are you able to use this sword as a weapon?

Miroku

It must have the ability to bring back dead souls. Such a power could be very useful during these Fuedual times.

I almost called the sword "the Coffin Cheater", but I opted for Tenseiga instead. It was a little more classy. Actually, it was your father who suggested the name.

Inuyasha

I get it now. No wonder Sesshomaru wants a new sword. He can't use his. He's incapable of feeling kindness for people, let alone saving lives.

Too bad this isn't working. It was your father's last wish.

Miroku

Your brother's so black hearted.

Kagome

He wouldn't be happy with the sword, even if he could use it.

Sesshomaru

The Tetsusaiga is amazing. Despite not being wielded by its true owner, its power is still formidable. However, it refuses to reveal the Wind Scar to the one it has received as its master. Tetsusaiga, cut through the emptiness...and reveal your power.

Sesshomaru must be able to see the Wind Scar.

Kagome

The Wind Scar? What is that?

In a nutshell, the Wind Scar is the secret to Tetsusaiga's ultimate power. Slaying a hundred demons in one sweep would be virtually impossible unless you can see the Wind Scar. Sesshomaru must be able to see it.

Kagome

Well, if Sesshomaru can see it, can't you teach Inuyasha to see it, too?

It is impossible to teach. Inuyasha must discover it within himself. And if doesn't not discover it in time, then he will surely die.

Kagome

You did it, Inuyasha! You discovered Tetsusaiga's secret and now you can master it.

Shippo

So does that mean Sesshomaru is dead?

Miroku

Most likely. I don't know how he could have survived. He received a direct blow from the fully empowered Tetsusaiga.

I didn't see Inuyasha make a direct blow. All he did was widely swing his sword around because his eyes were blinded with poison.

Inuyasha

What are you trying to say?

Listen, Inuyasha. You've uncovered the Wind Scar, I'll give you that much. But it now means that you now know what you're brother knows. You're still not his equal, and now he's even more formidable than he was before.

Miroku

You referred to him as though he were still alive.

Sesshomaru is still alive, and even though he despises the Tenseiga, it protected his life.

Sango

It protected his life?

Shippo

Do you mean that Sesshomaru is still around somewhere?

Inuyasha, when you used the Wind Scar against Sesshomaru, you didn't feel it strike him, did you?

Kagome

Is that true, Inuyasha?

Inuyasha

Hard to say. I was blinded. His body felt like it disintegrated in the blast from the Tetsusaiga. I didn't pulverize him or nothing. He just sort of disappeared...evaporated.

Tenseiga protected Sesshomaru from the power and might of Tetsusaiga. It acted on its own accord.

Kagome

It has a will of its own?

Sango

And here Sesshomaru calls Tenseiga a useless sword. And despised it as his birthright.

Miroku

Tenseiga is the sword of life. And when Sesshomaru's life is in danger, despite his dark soul, the Tenseiga choose to save him. And that is what makes him invincible.

So how do you defeat a foe like that? I wouldn't know how to. It's beyond me.

Kagome

Inuyasha, watch out!! He's using the power of the Sacred Jewel!! They're on his legs and right arm!

Inuyasha

Why didn't you say so earlier!? I thought you were acting pretty tough, but it's only because you got Jewel shards! You haven't got any power on your own, do ya!?

Kagome

And even your no match for them?

Koga

That's just it. One of the birds of paradise possesses a Sacred Jewel shard, and now he's even faster than we are. A few weeks ago, he killed fifty of our wolves in one fell swoop. It's gotta be the power of the Sacred Jewel. At this rate, I'm afraid our packs will be wiped out completely. So we need to restore the balance of power somehow.

Kagome

So your pack is in danger and that's why you need me to find which bird has the shard.

Koga

She risked her life to save her friend. She's loyal. I'm gonna make you my woman.

Kagome

Huh?
