Hitomiko's Barrier is 16th episode of InuYasha: The Final Act.

Plot
Naraku attacks and fatally wounds Hitomiko, a priestess with strong spiritual powers that he previously tried to kill fifteen years ago. Using the Shikon Jewel, he keeps her alive and uses his spider webs to capture Kagome. He has Hitomiko erect a barrier that traps Kagome within and begin torturing her as Inuyasha and the others try to destroy the spider webs to get to her. Kagome shoots the spider controlling Hitomiko, though she worries this will corrupt Hitomiko's soul and spiritual powers. When she fires her arrow, a huge ray of spiritual power shoots out and Hitomiko is able to die peacefully in Kagome's arms, after first telling Kagome that she can sense that Kagome's true spiritual powers are greatly powerful, but are somehow kept sealed.
