Episode 48 (Hanyō no Yashahime)

A Never-Ending Future is the forty-eighth episode of Hanyō no Yashahime, and the twenty-forth of the second season titled "The Second Act."

Synopsis
Per the request of a fully revitalized Riku, the Half-Demon Princess embark to the west to deal with demons of both low and high rank causing trouble now that the balance of power has shifted with the demise of the Beast King of the Eastern Lands by traveling to the western lands that were once dominated by their mighty grandfather.

Trivia

 * The Sacred Tree of Ages does not even mention Moroha's own efforts in preventing the Degenerate Age regardless of the quarter dog-demon's part being just as essential as her twin half-cousins. Additionally, it is speaking to Sesshomaru, even though he is not within its depths since his recuperation.
 * The charms with the Shikon Jewel key chains are shown, meaning that the time-stream has been restored to normal.
 * Myōga makes an appearance after a whole season's passing.
 * This a thriller episode.
 * Jyūbei also reappears after being absent for most of the season.
 * Hisui tries unsuccessfully to confess his true romantic affections for Setsuna, who obviously disregards his awkwardness as for Princess Aiya.
 * This is the first time Moroha wears a different kimono rather than the miko attire in Aanaki no Sora.
 * The kimonos Towa and Setsuna wear are the same ones from Anaaki no Sora.
 * Towa doesn't wear her kimono closed, instead wearing it open; she's also wearing bindings of the era, rather than one of her sports bras underneath.
 * Towa is back to square one; infusing her innate dog-demonic energies into the genuine Kikujūmonji to fight her adversaries.

Error

 * When Inuyasha runs with Moroha toward the ice demon, parts of the Beads of Subjugation are missing.
 * Sango mentions that Shippo is has reached Level 19 fox-demon, although he had said to Takechiyo, in Episode 15, that he reached a wall upon reaching Level 25.
