Inuyasha Vol. 39 — Manga Raw / Buy Official

Kagura's story reaches a turning point. The wind-user who struggled endlessly to escape Naraku's grip finally chooses, of her own will, the path of becoming the wind. Inuyasha's group fights on, caught between two threats, Moryomaru and Naraku, straining to stop the Jewel's completion. Sesshomaru's new blade Bakusaiga is tested, and his strength, freed from Tokijin, is honed sharper still. Kagome's purifying arrows and Kikyo's feelings intertwine as the late-game threads around the Jewel's taint are laid one by one. A volume heavy with sorrow and resolve, holding one of the series' most celebrated scenes.
