Sango is still connected to Naraku, hiding in a hole with Kagome, and getting ready to strike at her with his kama!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Original Air Date: 12 Nov 2001, Streamed on: Hulu<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kohaku’s kama hangs above Kagome… <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sango and Kilala are ripping through demons like tissue paper. Seriously, what is even the point of these demons? Naraku’s bees are still here. Kagura reveals that the demon horde is just a distraction in a more elaborate plot to kill Kagome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Psycho<\/em>-inspired score plays as Kohaku “chases” Kagome through the forest like Michael Myers, but Sango shows up on Kilala, and Kohaku runs away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inuyasha fights the demons with his claws because Tetsusaiga is just too much sword for him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Miroku figures out the plan and goes ham, wind-tunneling the entire remainder of the demon army, as well as Naraku’s bees, into the void in his palm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sango chases Kohaku, and Inuyasha chases Kagome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kohaku’s well-deserved thousand-yard stare is remarkable, especially since the animator actually<\/em> drew him as a stoned teenager. So far, he hasn’t killed anyone since his original three murders. He also hasn’t juggled any wood in this episode.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sango overpowers Kohaku and prepares to kill him by stabbing him in the face with her very pointy sword, but Kohaku just cannot be bothered to care. Sango’s internal dialog reveals her plan to be a murder-suicide. Yikes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inuyasha stops her by slapping the sword out of her hand, and Kohaku backflips out of there before doing an incredible one-arm hand stand (twice!<\/em>) to get away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kagura reveals that Kohaku asked Naraku to erase his memory, then flies him away on her giant feather. He is still not impressed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    At one point, Inuyasha begs Kohaku, “Remember Sango and the Demon Slayers!” and if that’s not already a band name, it should be.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
