InuYasha the Movie 2: The Castle Beyond the Looking Glass Page #2

Tears of sorrow overflow

deep within my heart

What good this potion of life,

nothing matters now

So Naraku has died.

Next, all living creatures in this

world will be erased.

And perpetual night shall be mine.

Who are you?

I am the Princess of the Heavens...

Kaguya.

That is the Dream Castle

of the pentacle mirrors.

Kagura, your freedom is but

a fleeting illusion.

Humph! So what of it?

I shall show you...

eternal freedom.

I can grant your wish.

Kanna, is this worth our time?

To meet nevermore

Tears of sorrow overflow

deep within my heart

What good is this potion of life,

nothing matters now

This is the poem composed

by the Mikado.

"l will never see Princess Kaguya again."

"The tears of sadness overflow.

So much that my body would float."

"What is the use of the

elixir of immortality?"

"l have no use for it now."

That is the meaning.

The Mikado orders his vassals

to take the elixir of immortality

to Suruga where the tallest

mountain in Japan stood, and burn it.

At that time, the mountain was called

mountain of immortality, or Fushi

from which the name Mt. Fuji is derived.

That's all for today.

Your reports on the "Tale of the

Bamboo Cutter" are due next period.

Kagome...class is over.

Stand!

Bow!

Homework, huh?

What a drag.

We're in middle school already!

Why do we have to write a

report about a fairy tale?

But, you know...

the famous author Murasaki

Shikibu wrote that

the "Tale of the Bamboo Cutter" is

considered one of the first novels.

A classic's classic?

But wasn't this Princess Kaguya

pretty willful?

She sought suitors to marry,

then gave them difficult tasks

to complete, then jilted them all.

Even the Mikado!

And ultimately, she returns

to the moon.

That's right. Princess Kaguya

returned to the moon

and never came back.

How long will I be able

to keep coming and going?

By the way...

Kagome, you have someone

wooing you with presents.

Huh?

I wonder what he'll give you today.

Hey! Kagome!

Speaking of the devil...

You've been coming to

school a lot lately.

Yes, thank goodness.

Drink this and build up

your strength.

Thank you.

Say, are you free this Sunday?

Let's go to the amusement park.

And this time, don't cancel on me.

Sis!

Sis!

Sota, what's the matter?

Inuyasha is...!

Shh!

Something wrong?

Oh, it's nothing.

See you all later!

What about Inuyasha?

He was at the house until a little

while ago...

but he's disappeared.

Why weren't you watching him?!

All dressed up in that gaudy red

outfit...he's bound to attract attention!

But I couldn't help it...

Such noisy dogs!

Sit!

Huh?

Inuyasha! What are you...?

W-What do you mean, what?!

You're late...
