The  ninth volume of the Yashahime: Princess Half-Demon manga , Takashi Shiina 's adaptation of the Inuyasha sequel anime , has revealed that the story will come to an end with its tenth volume , scheduled for publication this summer of 2025 .


Serialization began in September 2021 in Shogakukan ' s Shōnen Sunday S magazine , and by the eighth volume the plot had entered its final phase. Viz Media currently publishes the manga in English in both print and digital formats, with chapters available simultaneously with its Japanese premiere through its Viz Manga app .


An adventure between eras


Set in the universe of Rumiko Takahashi , the work follows the lives of the daughters of the original characters. In feudal Japan, half-demon twins Towa and Setsuna are separated during a forest fire. Towa passes through a mysterious tunnel that takes her to modern Japan , where she is raised by the family of Sota Higurashi , Kagome's brother.


A decade later, the tunnel reopens, allowing Towa to reunite with Setsuna, who has become a Demon Slayer under Kohaku 's command . However, Setsuna has lost all of her memories of her sister. Joined by Moroha , the daughter of Inuyasha and Kagome , the three young women embark on a journey to recover their lost past and uncover the truth behind their destiny.


A solid career for Takashi Shiina


Shiina is known for his long-running series Zettai Karen Children , which ended in July 2021 after 16 years of publication. The science fiction comedy spawned a 52-episode series in 2008, an OVA in 2010, and a spinoff focusing on antagonist Kyōsuke Hyōbu , which aired in 2013. Sentai Filmworks and Crunchyroll handled its distribution in the West under the title Psychic Squad .


The Inuyasha universe lives on


Rumiko Takahashi 's original work was published from 1996 to 2008 , reaching a total of 56 volumes , all licensed by Viz Media . The Inuyasha anime aired 167 episodes between 2000 and 2004, followed by the 26-episode sequel series InuYasha: The Final Act in 2009.


The franchise also features four films and a 30-minute animated short . In 2019, Viz began releasing the original series on Blu-ray , keeping the legacy of this generational story alive.


With the closing of the Yashahime manga, a new stage in the legendary Inuyasha saga comes to an end , leaving fans with an emotional farewell to the children of their favorite characters.
