Sesshōmaru's mother



Sesshomaru's mother is also an inuyōkai like her deceased mate Inu no Taishou and as such can transform into a giant dog demon as well as a more human appearance. Although the Great Dog Demon sired a child with his human lover Izayoi, it remains uncertain as to whether or not the relationship with Sesshomaru's mother had ended.

Sesshomaru's mother holds the Meidō Stone, which was given to her by Inu no Taishou. He told her that if Sesshomaru were to come by, to use it and "If you use Meidō-Stone Sesshomaru will be faced with great danger... However, you must not feel fear or sadness." This apparently is another of the Great Dog Demon's tests for his son's.

In demeanor she seems similar to Sesshomaru, albeit with a certain playfulness, and probably influenced his initial attitude towards humans; observing Rin and Kohaku following Sesshomaru, she inquires casually if he is planning to eat them. Observing Sesshomaru's trial after activating the Meidō-Stone, she seems at best only casually concerned about the possibility of his death, and after he refuses the escape route she offers, she seems mildly offended, huffing, "Fine. Ignore your mother's kindness," and complaining that, unlike his father, he "completely lacks any charm."

However, she does feel concern for her son's well-being, as seen when she brings Rin back to life using the Meidō-Seki after witnessing his reaction to her death, and later when she questions Jaken in whether or not Sesshomaru was happy now that Rin was brought back.She appears in episode nine "Sesshomaru in the Underworld" of the second anime series "Inuyasha: The Final Act."
