Aired on June 4, 2001
Naraku revives Kohaku using a Shikon Jewel shard, erasing his memories to spare him trauma. He commands the amnesiac boy to attack Inuyasha. Sango pursues Kohaku through a spirit shield in a forest, where she encounters Naraku. He uses Kohaku as leverage, offering to let him live forever if Sango delivers the legendary sword Tetsusaiga to him. This ultimatum forces Sango into a desperate situation, balancing her duty to stop Naraku against the hope of saving her brother's life. The encounter highlights the ongoing conflict and the personal stakes involved for Sango as she faces the demon lord's manipulative demands.
