Episode 76

Target: Sesshomaru and Inuyasha is 76th episode of Inuyasha anime

Plot
Miroku and Sango are captured and imprisoned with Kagome and villagers that are to be sacrificed in order for the demon-panthers to resurrect their leader. Inuyasha learns from Myōga, then Jaken, the story of how his father and his allies battled and defeated the panthers eons ago, then how Sesshōmaru did the same fifty years ago (though at a huge cost of lives), while Inuyasha was under the spell of Kikyō, thus explaining the hatred of the panthers for his blood, and part of Sesshōmaru's despise for his brother, who had failed to come to his aid the one time he needed it. Kōga gets told the same story from the forest demon, and joins the two brothers as each attacks one gate of the panthers' fortress.
