Rumiko Takahashi‘s highly acclaimed InuYasha ran from 1996 to 2008 in Japan. VIZ Media has announced that the final issue of the English manga will conclude on the 11th of January this year with issue 56: Curtain of Time.
InuYasha, a half-demon, encounters Kagome a modern-day high school girl after she’s pulled into Japan’s ancient past. In the past Kagome is recognised as the reincarnation of Kikyo, a guardian who once stopped InuYasha stealing the Sacred Jewel of Four Souls. An awkward truce emerges and the group quickly find themselves battling against the evil Naraku.
In the final showdown readers finally discover what Naraku has really been up to and whether Kagome can be rescued by the Meido.
