Ep. 35: Miaka seeks Nakago to recover the stolen Shinzaho artifact from Ashitare
Aired on November 30, 1995

After Ashitare’s wolf form steals the Shinzaho from Miaka, Taiitsukun advises her to couple with Nakago to retrieve it. While Tamahome departs early due to Miaka’s period, Taiitsukun transforms into a clam. Miaka enters Nakago’s tent, where he waits for her. Meanwhile, Yui leaves her side despite Soboshi’s warnings, leading to a kiss interrupted by another member of the Seven. That member reveals the clam shell to Yui. Nakago attacks Miaka with lightning, destroying the necklace Tamahome’s sister made for her, and advances toward her as Tamahome senses trouble and returns.
