Shibugarasu

is a demon bird that seeks the jewel when Inuyasha appears in the old shack and the lead warrior's armor slips, revealing the crow in his chest. It had eaten out his heart and was controlling him. Inuyasha tried to kill the crow but missed, and the crow swallows the Shikon no Tama and flies away. Kagome and Inuyasha start chasing the crow. Kagome tries to shoot the crow with an arrow but misses. She hits it near a lake and its parts fall into the lake, but Kagome has forgotten that it had the jewel and it starts to reform. It flies away again. A child starts to scream that one of the crow's feet is on his back. Kagome grabs it and ties it to an arrow. She then shoots the arrow, hitting the crow, but shatters the jewel into tiny shards. The crow dies in the end.

Manga vs Anime

 * In the Manga, Shibugarasu turns into some sort of bat-winged reptile with a large mouth upon transforming, while in the anime he still looks like a bird. Also in the manga, the chase didn't take place near a river.

Trivia

 * Shibugarasu, along with Mistress Centipede and Naraku, are the only characters known to have successfully captured a complete Shikon no Tama.
