TV/2003/2000 Titles

From the manga of the same title, this follows the adventures of Kagome, a modern day Japanese teenager, and Inuyasha, an ancient and powerful hanyou (half youkai/half human) warrior, as they scour the landscape of mythical Japan for the pieces of the legendary jewel, the Shikon no Tama. Together with Miroku, Sango, and Shippou, they must keep the powerful hanyou Naraku from obtaining the full gem.

High School student Shinichi Kudou was a virtual Sherlock Holmes, who the Tokyo police regularly turned to for help in solving baffling cases. But then he accidentally learned too much for his own good about a murder case, and was caught by the villains. They poisoned him and left him for dead, but the "poison" had an unexpected effect--rather than killing him, it caused Shinichi to revert to the appearance of an elementary school boy! He retains his skills as a brilliant detective, however, and since that incident has managed to become adopted by his former girlfriend and her less-than-exemplary private detective father. With them he carries on his passion, and searches for clues to a possible antidote to the poison he was forced to swallow.
