Wake up! #YashaHime is on!
This week's episode answered a lot of questions about what happened to InuYasha and Kagome, along with some other stuff.
Gather around, this is going to be a rather detailed review of things that happened since #InuYasha ended. #YashaHime

This backstory takes place 14 years ago right before Towa, Setsuna, and Moroha were born.
What does this Black Pearl have to do with anything? You'll find out soon enough. #YashaHime

For now, it's time to see InuYasha whip out his Tetsusaiga for old time's sake. #YashaHime
And then get scolded by Kagome afterwards for inadvertently wrecking their home in the process. #YashaHime
It's always an eye that you store things in when it comes to this series.
At least Kagome put the rouge in her custody rather than InuYasha.
It's for the best. #YashaHime

Also, Kagome's about to be a mother. #YashaHime
How old is Riku anyway? #YashaHime
Oh yeah, a big comet is about to crash onto Earth and kill everyone. #YashaHime
InuYasha & Sesshomaru's Dad, along with Riku's Dad(?), took care of the last one half a millennium ago. #YashaHime
So, summoning Alucard .... I mean Kirinmaru is out of the question then. #YashaHime
I'm starting to think this Zero lady is the real "Big Bad" of the story.
She gives off a lot of Ragyo Kiryuin vibes. #YashaHime

I think we all know where the grudges against Sesshomaru came from.
There is a long list of demons who have him on their sh*t list for reasons, apparently. #YashaHime

I don't think there was any real explanation about Rin's actual age in the original show, though in modern-day Japan, the age of consent is 13.
Thirteen. #YashaHime
Thirteen. #YashaHime
Sesshomaru: Taking the kids.
Kagome: What for?
Sesshomaru: Don't ask stupid questions.
Rin: Can't I at least hold them in my arms first?
Sesshomaru: You'll be in a deep coma inside a tree soon.
Rin: HUH?!

Jaken is essentially the godfather to those kids as you will see later on. #YashaHime
Speaking of demons who have Sesshomaru on their sh*t list, here's Ainu all of a sudden. #YashaHime
Well, at least we know where the gold and silver pearls came from.
They originally belonged to the snake lady. #YashaHime

"This Jaken"?
So, you're saying there have been other Jakens who have served Sesshomaru before?
Interesting. #YashaHime

The Rainbow Pearls had to go somewhere, so Sesshomaru gave them to his children. #YashaHime
Also, that comet is still coming to kill us all. #YashaHime
Not on their watch. #YashaHime
I can now see why Viz went with casting Crispin Freeman as Kirinmaru in the dubbed version of this series. He was made for roles like this. #YashaHime
Sesshomaru: Hey. You wanna come watch me kill my brother, his wife, and his child?
Kirinmaru: 'Kay.
Father of the Year, ladies and gentlemen. #YashaHime

Gonna deviate away from the episode a bit to share this part from Episode 8 in #YashaHimeDub.
This still hurts. #YashaHime @kiratozer @richardiancox

This is the part where InuYasha and Kagome both die. #YashaHime
Or rather, this is the part in which they both get sucked into the Black Pearl.
They haven't been seen or heard from ever since, but InuYasha and Kagome are still pretty much alive. #YashaHime

So, for the next 14-15 years, InuYasha and Kagome are essentially grave watchers.
Have to wonder if they had any more kids during that time. #YashaHime

Moroha would be raised by the Yoro Clan from that day forward.
So, does that mean Koga and Ayame are her adoptive parents?
It would explain the leg warmers. #YashaHime

It would be four years before Zero would find Sesshomaru's daughters in the forest, and ...... you know what happened next. #YashaHime
Anyway, that was the whole backstory as told by Riku, though we still don't know how Rin became comatose and wound up inside the Tree of Ages.
Perhaps that will be answered before the series is over in a few weeks. #YashaHime

Next week, we get a Moroha-focused episode for a change as she confronts her old master.
Judging by what we've seen in the opening sequence, we're gonna need some tissues for this one. #YashaHime
