The beautiful and sad witch - Campanulaceae (1)

In the beginning, I preferred Kagome, and even hated Kikyo a little bit. I felt that she was dead, so why not let it go? That kind of selfish darkness annoys me. However, with the development of the plot, when I reviewed Kikyo Inuyasha's first love in more than 100 episodes, I finally stopped hating her so much, but was deeply heartbroken.
When Naraku pretends to be Inuyasha and hurts Kikyo, when she waits for Inuyasha to appear with full of joy, when she carefully prepares to use the lipstick that Inuyasha gave her. How much hope was shattered by that palm? Listening to "Inuyasha"'s sentence "You only need to dress yourself up with the blood of monsters", what kind of pain the heart that was immersed in sweetness was endured. The ruthless language and expressions of "Inuyasha" successfully drove Kikyo into hell, and everything turned into pain, despair, and resentment.
Watching the lipstick-filled shells fly out of Kikyo's hands and be crushed by the fake "Inuyasha". I cried for the first time while watching this anime. It was also the first time that I entered deeply into Kikyo's heart and felt her despair and pain.
Kikyo's heart is contradictory, and this contradiction pushes her and her feelings for Inuyasha to the edge. As a witch, she was born with the mission of eliminating demons and protecting the jade of the four souls. She is obviously a human woman, but because of her spiritual power and responsibility, she cannot enjoy youth and love like ordinary women. Inuyasha is a half-demon with both human spirituality and monster magic. He is rejected in the human world and looked down upon in the monster world. Different situation, but the same inner feeling, that inner loneliness. It is this understanding that draws them closer, until they fall in love.
Kikyo imagined using the power of the Four Soul Jade to turn Inuyasha into a human being, so that she would also become an ordinary woman and could be with Inuyasha. However, the development of things was beyond her imagination. "Inuyasha" (played by Naraku) deceived her feelings and betrayed their agreement. At this time, the pain in her heart and her mission to the Jade of the Four Souls made her and Inuyasha become enemies again.

Inuyasha quotes

  • Kagome: [after Miroku observes that Inuyasha isn't such a bad guy] Miroku is right. Inuyasha could have killed the artist, and ended the trouble in one blow. But instead, he spared the man's life and went straight for the ink pot. Yeah, I guess Inuyasha's all right. He just doesn't know it yet. I might tell him, someday, if the time is ever right.

  • Inuyasha: [thinking about Kagome] As long as she's alive and well, that's all I hope for. I can't bear to see another woman die.
