InuYasha

犬夜叉

Rumiko Takahashi was known for comedies like Urusei Yatsura and Ranma 1/2 before this darker adventure. Its quest is a cleanup job. Fifteen-year-old Kagome Higurashi lives in Tokyo, where her family keeps a shrine with an old well. On her birthday a centipede demon drags her into that well, and she climbs out in Sengoku-era Japan. There she frees Inuyasha, a half-demon with dog ears who has hung pinned to a tree by a sacred arrow for fifty years. Later she breaks the Shikon Jewel by mistake, and its shards fly all over the country. Now the squabbling pair hunt shards before demons can use them. Over time a monk, a fox demon child and a demon slayer join them. It suits readers who want a long fantasy quest with romance and monster fights.
