Kanji
I believe you have the Kanji wrong on this one as well. It should be 冥道残月破. Dethklok91 (talk) 14:13, January 18, 2013 (UTC)

The translation is wrong as well. I'm no translator, but literally it says something like "rending a moon out of the underworld". Which makes a lot more sense than "Dark Path of the Dawn's Moon Wave"! Troyp (talk) 06:47, April 6, 2014 (UTC)

Naraku's Immunity
The article says that Naraku was immune to the original attack while in his ultimate form, then says the shikon jewel was immune to it altogether. So my question is, was the reason Naraku was immune to attack because he actually was immune to it, or was it because he had the jewel on his person? And was that why the second version was effective? Because it could cut up his body and then absorb the parts not in contact with the jewel? I haven't gotten that far in the series yet, so the specifics are a bit unclear to me. Damaijin (talk) 23:59, March 30, 2013 (UTC)
 * Naraku's ultimate form was the Shikon Jewel; Naraku absorbed it, and it manipulated him completely. So the two can't really be separated in this case. I believe that in essence you're close when you say the second version was effective because it wasn't trying to pull the Jewel into another dimension, but was directly targeting Naraku's body. However, he simply regenerates since the Jewel cannot be destroyed. It isn't until Sesshōmaru uses the Bakusaiga to destroy his body and Kagome purifies the Jewel with her arrow that Naraku finally dies, although the Jewel uses the delayed Meido technique of Byakuya to suck Kagome into the Jewel itself, where she purifies it with the one true wish.--Suzaku 朱雀 Maze Castle 04:22, March 31, 2013 (UTC)
