Nushi

is the lord of a lake near Shima's house.

History
Two years ago, Shima was seriously sick since she was small, and Miroku gave her family some medicine that can cure her sickness. Miroku also told them to boil the medicine in pure water. Later, Shima's father took some water from Nushi's lake. Every time he took pure water from it, he would pray at the front of Nushi's temple for Shima to get well as soon as possible, and as thanks, he would do anything as long as Nushi was satisfied.

During the Story
Sushi was a lord of a lake that wanted to marry Shima. At night before the wedding ceremony, Nushi appeared from the ground, and brings different kinds of wedding gifts at the front of Inuyasha, Kagome and Sango. Inuyasha intended to drive him away, but Shima's father revealed out the truth about the promise before. Shima's father said that he already made a promise to Nushi that he would let him marry his daughter.

After Shima heard all the truth, she apologized to Nushi - she already gave herself to Miroku two years ago. Enraged and depressed, he transformed into a giant catfish and goes on a rampage. He is stopped by Inuyasha, but he is still very upset.

After Sango heard the news of Miroku and Shima's "affair", she left the group. Later, Nushi took the advantage to kidnap Shima, intent on forcing her to become his bride.

Miroku used his spiritual powers to defeat Nushi, and threatened to kill him if he touched Sango again.
