Moroha

is the tritagonist in the anime series Hanyō no Yashahime. She calls herself Beniyasha (朱夜叉, "Crimson Demon").

History
Moroha is the only daughter of Inuyasha and Kagome Higurashi, a quarter-demon bounty hunter who slays demons and sells their parts to other demon slayers, presumably so they can make weapons and armor out of them.

She wields the yōkai sword Kurikaramaru and is known as "Moroha the Demon Killer" (化け殺しのもろは, bake-goroshi no Moroha).

Moroha knows very little of her parents as she has lived alone. Inuyasha and Kagome apparently never told anyone about Moroha as Kohaku didn't know who she was and was surprised a demon like her has spiritual powers, which are typically exclusive to humans.

Personality
Although she has a cheerful and friendly personality from her mother, Moroha has a dangerous temper, inherited from her father, and when rampaging is known as the "Crimson Night Demon of National Destruction" (国崩しの紅夜叉, kuni-kuzushi no kurenaiyasha).

Like her father, she can be impulsive such as attacking without thinking, which can leave her open after attacking an enemy. In addition, she does not care if she's seen naked.

Physical Description
Like her father, Moroha doesn't wear any shoes. She has black hair, like her mother and father in his human form, which she wears in a ponytail held back by a red ribbon. Her design suggests that she inherited the Robe of the Fire-rat from her father. Due to the thinness of her demon blood (only one-quarter demon), Moroha doesn't show any visible demon traits (normal eyes, hair, or fangs) other than slightly enlarged canines, claws, and her demonic power, which, while strong enough to slay demons, is still likely less than her father's. She wears a red, ragged cape, a pair of red leg warmers with black bows and red gloves.

Powers & abilities
Moroha is both an archer and swordfighter, just like her parents. She has apparently inherited some of her mother's spiritual power, as she can infuse her arrows with purifying energy.
 * Sense of Smell: Like her father, Moroha has a stronger sense of smell than humans. She could detect a demon disguised as a human.
 * Time travel: Like her mother, Moroha can travel through time between Modern and Feudal era.
 * Enhanced Stamina: Like her father, Moroha's stamina far exceeded human standards despite being a quarter demon. She was able to run and leap vast distances at great speeds without slowing down during rescuing her cousin when was captured by shogunate adviser from Kanto Region.
 * Sacred Arrows: Similar to her mother, Moroha is able to fire sacred arrows. Her arrow flies in the air, where it splits into several arrows and hits the enemy.
 * Detect Demon Aura: Moroha can feel other people's demonic energies. When she met Setsuna, she immediately noticed that she was a half-demon. She later recognized Towa as a half-demon. Moroha also told Setsuna that Towa was telling the truth when she claims to be her sister because her two auras would be very similar. Moroha also realized that they must both be the daughters of Sesshomaru.

Equipment

 * Robe of the Fire-Rat: A red colored garment which protects the wearer from burning flames and other external forces.
 * Kurikaramaru:
 * The sheath of Kurikaramaru:
 * Bow and arrow: Her secondary choice of weaponry, Moroha infuses her spiritual energy into the arrows to attack her opponents.
 * Red Rainbow Pearl: A small red jewel that contains mystical powers which she keeps hidden in a shell compact.

Inuyasha
Inuyasha is her father.

Kagome Higurashi
Kagome Higurashi is her mother.

Towa Higurashi
Towa Higurashi is her cousin.

When they first met, Moroha explained to Towa what half-demons are and revealed that she is one of them too. She was impressed that Towa could create a demonic blade, but annoyed because she thought she was too reluctant to fight. For some unknown reason, she didn't want Setsuna to fight Towa. At the same time, she doesn't seem to have any emotional closeness to her. When Setsuna was putting her to sleep, she casually asked if she'd killed her.

Setsuna
Setsuna is her cousin. It is implied that Moroha and Setsuna did not know each other at all, or at least did not know each other until attacked by Mistress Three-Eyes. Hisui and Setsuna didn't even know Moroha was a quarter-demon and believing her to be a full demon were surprised that she could shoot sacred arrows. They also wrongly believed her to be guilty of attacking a village. Moroha herself would express a liking towards Setsuna's naginata, opining that the latter should have no qualms of surrendering it over to Moroha if she bests Setsuna fairly in a fight.

Sesshōmaru
Sesshōmaru is her paternal uncle.

Mei Higurashi
Mei is her cousin.

Souta Higurashi
Souta is her maternal uncle.

Trivia
