hi! could give me some of the most significant moments/turning points in inukag's relationship? i'd really appreciate it :)
I think most of the important moments in their relationship happened in the beginning of the series because in episode 48/chapter 173-176 they were pretty much already acknowledging that they were in a relationship.
So here’s the most significant moments in their relationship in my opinion:
Ep.7/Chapter 17: The very first moment, when Inuyasha told Kagome he would protect her (he was somewhat nice to her for the first time).
Ep. 10/Chapter 34 : When Inuyasha grabs Kagome’s hand when he thought she was dead. He shows that he actually care about her life for the first time.
Ep. 13/Chapter 42 : Inuyasha transforms into a human for the the first time in front of Kagome and he tells her that she smells nice. He’s admitting that he was lying when he said mean things to her.
Ep. 14/Chapter 45: Inuyasha almost kisses Kagome but she pushes him back.
Ep. 16/Chapter 53 : Miroku touches Kagome’s butt and Inuyasha becomes protective of Kagome for the first time.
Ep. 19-21/Chapters 62-72 : Inuyasha protects Kagome from Sesshomaru’s attack and begins to fear for Kagome’s safety. Of course there’s the beautiful hug (before he pushes her in the well lmao): and Kagome’s hug after she comes back:at this point I think Inuyasha already had a crush on Kagome (maybe a little bit because she looks like Kikyo) but Kagome is just starting to see him as a boy and as a potential boyfriend. And Inuyasha says this wonderful line:
Ep. 22/Chapter 73: Kagome snuggles next to Inuyasha because she was scared and Inuyasha is having “indecent thoughts”
Ep. 23/Chapters 75-78: Let’s forget about the anime for this part. Kagome starts to question Inuyasha’s feelings for her after she sees him kissing Kikyo. But Inuyasha ends up telling her that she’s not just Kikyo’s replacement. He likes her smile and he feels at peace when he’s with her. Even though Kagome didn’t hear him because she fell asleep, he’s basically admitting his feelings for her at this point.
Episode 31/Chapter 112-115: Inuyasha says that Kagome is his home.
Ep. 33/Chapter 124: In the manga only, Inuyasha thinks “When I met Kagome, I regained my lost heart” and then when Kagome asks him if he still loves Kikyo he says this:
Ep. 37-38/Chapters 134-140: Inuyasha shows his jealousy again when Koga declares his love for Kagome. Kagome goes back to her world and talks with her friends in the modern world and they speculate that she must be in love with him. Also before their fight Kagome runs into Inuyasha arms because she was scared.
Ep. 47-48/Chapters 170-176 : I think this is where everything changed. Kagome sees Inuyasha and Kikyo together, she goes back to her world and then she realizes she’s in love with him. She comes back to the feudal era and she asks Inuyasha if she can stay by his side and they hold hands. They are basically together at this point.
Episode 51/Chapter 182 : It’s a lot cuter in the manga, Inuyasha wraps his arm around Kagome because he was worried about her.
Ep. 52/Chapter 187: One of the most important moment in my opinion, when Kagome comforts Inuyasha after he transformed into a full demon for the first time.
Ep. 57-58 / Chapter 79- 85: The whole Togenkyo arc, Inuyasha sacrifices his life to kill Tokajin and thinks “it’s alright at least Kagome is alive” . Oh and Inuyasha sees Kagome naked
Ep. 60-62/Chapters 192-198 : The whole Tsubaki arc showed that Inuyasha really trust Kagome. And Kagome tells Inuyasha that she’s with him by choice.
Ep. 107/Chapter 244: When Inuyasha cried because he thought Kagome died.
Ep. 117/Chapter 265: When Kagome cried because she thought Inuyasha died and they hug and Inuyasha tells Koga that he has no chance to be with Kagome because it’s obvious that she chose to be with him.
Ep. 126/Chapter 286: Kagome tells the infant that her jealousy toward Kikyo only means that she’s in love with Inuyasha. Inuyasha tells her that he won’t leave her alone anymore.
Ep. 167/Chapter 355-356 : Kagome stops Inuyasha’s transformation when she hugs him.also they cuddle in a tree in this episode/chapter:
In The Final Act:
Ep. 1/Chapter 411: Inuyasha carries Kagome home from school and he cheers her up and says (in the manga only):
Ep. 7/Chapter 449: Kagome tells “Kikyo” (an illusion of Kikyo) that she is confident that Inuyasha loves her. Inuyasha catches her when she falls from the sky.
Ep. 10/Chapter 473: Inuyasha finally moves on from Kikyo’s death after he apologizes to Kagome for not thinking about her feelings.
Ep. 18/Chapter 494: Their most romantic moment, when Inuyasha tells her he will protect her with his life and they almost kiss.Inuyasha helps Kagome to get her bag from the train and she gives him a big hug
Ep. 23/Chapter 540: When Inuyasha catches Kagome in midair and her powers purify him.
Ep. 26/Chapters 555-558: Inuyasha finds Kagome inside the jewel, they kiss (in the anime only). And they end up getting married.
Voilà ! This is all I can remember I hope I didn’t forget anything !
