While Inuyasha and the gang was messing around with talking plants, Sango was back home fixing her giant boomerang and laying her father and friends to rest.
Original Air Date: 4 Feb 2002, Streamed on: Hulu
Sango is alone, smithing her apparently metal boomerang, which is odd because it frequently seems quite wooden, when a stranger attacks her. Kilala nipped that in the bud, nearly killing the attacker but stops after a young girl begs. They are sisters who seek training as demon slayers.
Sango reluctantly agrees, so the training begins.
At night, the sisters sneak off to break into the armory by hand chopping an iron lock. Apparently, they are from a ninja village. They must not be very good ninjas because Sango caught them quite easily.
The sisters tell the story of how their village was destroyed by demons because ninjas “only know ninja tactis” which makes them terrible demon slayers. Of course, they throw a smoke bomb and escape.
Sango discovers that the sisters emptied the entire armory, but some of the demon relics have not been exorcised yet. A giant swarm of demons appears, attracted to the demon remains, just after Sango shows up to warn the sisters.
With the demon horde bearing down, Sango convinces the siters to climb onto Kilala’s back, as she prepares to fight. There are too many, and as the horde closes in… Miroku and Inuyasha show up just in time!
Wind scar! Wind tunnel! Battle over.
Miroku and Sango get cutesy again, but Miroku goes for the butt grab again. To his credit, this time he mixed it up and reached from the front.
