In the first InuYasha anime series, Kagome Higurashi, a schoolgirl in modern Tokyo falls through a well into feudal Japan where she meets InuYasha, the titular half-demon born to a dog demon father and human mother. It turns out that Kagome is in possession of the Jewel of Four Souls, a power-enhancing and wish-granting artefact sought by humans and demons alike. Originally seeking the jewel to turn himself into a powerful full-fledged demon, InuYasha then falls in love with Kagome. However, as demons and villains of all forms try to possess the jewel, it gets shattered and scattered, and it is left to InuYasha and Kagome to retrieve the scattered shards before the jewel falls into the wrong hands. InuYasha and Kagome along with comrades Shippo, a fox demon; Miroku, a cursed monk; and Sango, a demon-slayer, continue their battle against the minions of demonic villain Naraku for the mighty Jewel of Four Souls.
