This volume locked in battle with Ryokotsusei - the same demon responsible for his father's death - InuYasha may have a chance at victory ... but not if he can't master the "Backlash Wave" (Bakuryu-ha). Meanwhile, when Kagome is bitten by Tsubakí's familiar, the Shikon Jewel shards themselves are affected. What can it mean for the shards to turn black...?
