Character Description: Kagome Higurashi
Kagome Higurashi was just a normal teenage girl living in Tokyo at the Sunset Shrine in the year 1997. Then, on the day of her fifteenth birthday, she stumbles into an old well on the shrine that her family cares for. A centipede demon grabs her and demands that Kagome give her the Shikon Jewel. Having no idea what the demon is talking about, she panics and somehow emits a purple light from her hands that appears to kill the demon.
After climbing back out of the well, she sees that she is in a forest. Running to where her house should be, she finds a tree with a boy pinned to it. Then villagers from a nearby village attack her thinking she is a shape shifting demon. The priestess of the village, Kaede, notices that Kagome strongly resembles her dead sister, Kikyou.
During their conversation, the demon attacks again. Kagome runs to the tree that the boy is pinned to, and after being injured by the demon, she releases the boy. The boy immediately demands that she hand over the jewel. By this time Kaede arrives and places a magical necklace on the boy that will immobilize him when Kagome says the word "sit". Kaede explains to her about the boy, Inuyasha, and how he was pinned to the tree. She also concludes that Kagome is the reincarnation of Kikyou.
Later on in the day, the jewel is stolen by a crow demon and is shattered into many pieces which become scattered all over the land. Being the reincarnation of Kikyou, Kagome is also blessed with a sixth sense enabling her to find the jewel shards. She has also seemed to inherit some of Kikyou's archery skills, though her powers are still seriously under-developed.

Character Description: Kagome Higurashi
Kagome is the reincarnation of a priestess of InuYasha's time named Kikyou. At first she and InuYasha didn't get along because his memories of Kikyou got in the way. As they continued searching for the Jewel of Four Souls (Shikon no Tama), they began to develop feelings for each other, but of course neither would admit it.
When Kikyou shows up again, Kagome has to deal with InuYasha's feelings for her. She has developed a friendship with Sango and Miroku, and is Shippo's self appointed protector.

Kagome must really love Inuyasha she does care the one thing she doesn't like is when Inuyasha is with Kikyo..... I don't like it either...... Inuyasha and Kagome are the ones that belong together not Kikyo I admit Kikyo is nice but i really hurts Kagome to see them together she wants to be with Inuyasha and have Kikyo out of the situation period. Inuyasha doesn't mean to do this he still has feelings for Kikyo but it seems that Kikyo doesn't feel the same way anymore........ man Inuyasha get to your senses and get with Kagome!!! ... show more »

But really Inuyasha loves Kagome he just doesn't want to admit it hes even getting nicer. Kagome loves Inuyasha but she doesn't tell him because he is still in love with Kikyo but that's all in the past Kikyo is not even alive anymore it's about the hear and now. Inuyasha has developed feelings for Kagome ...... Kagome has melted his heart!!! ... show more »

Yeah I know it really does hurt Kagomes feelings whenever he does that but Inuyasha doesn't mean to hurt Kagome. Every time he runs to go see Kikyo Kagome is secretly watching and when Kikyo is gone she comes out and Inuyasha see's that shes been watching the whole time!!!

i think inuyasha and kagome is a really cute couple they are so cute together. Also i feel really bad for kagome because when inuyasha hears or sees kikyo he just runs off to find kikyo and leave kagome alone.
