Chihiro, a tízéves, önfejű kislány meg van győződve arról, hogy az egész világ körülötte forog - épp ezért képtelen belenyugodni abba, hogy szüleivel új városba költözik, és csalódottságát meg sem próbálja leplezni az utazás alatt. Amikor az erdőben eltévedve egy különös zsákutca végére érnek, a kis család rábukkan egy sötét alagútra, amelynek másik végén szellemváros fogadja őket. Az üres utcákon fejedelmi lakomától roskadoznak az asztalok: az éhes szülők mohón a finom ételekre vetik magukat, ám hamarosan disznóvá változnak, amikor a városban felbukkannak a valódi vacsoravendégek. Az eldugott mesevilág lakói ősi istenek és más csodalények, uralkodója pedig Yubaba, a gonosz boszorkány. Chihiro csak akkor mentheti meg szüleit, ha hasznossá teszi magát Szellemországban és munkát talál magának a banya hatalmas fürdőházában.

Inuyasha hatalmas és rettegett apja, Inu no Taishou többszáz évvel ezelőtt gigantikus csatát vívott egy Kínából érkező démoncsordával. A kínai démonok vezérét, Hyougát, a Lepkedémont végül legyőzte Inu no Taishou - teste pedig Japánban maradt, ahol örök fogságra kárhoztatták. Hyouga egyetlen fia, Menomaru sokáig várt a bosszúra. A Shikon gyöngy ezernyi szilánkjából egy végül őt is felébresztette fogságából és két csatlósával, Rurival és Harival együtt ördögi tervet eszel ki. Ahhoz, hogy apja legendás erejére szert tegyen, szét kell törnie a Lepkedémon Nagyúr testét fogva tartó varázslatot, ezért szüksége van halálos ellensége fiainak - azaz Inuyashának és Sesshomarunak - a kardjára. Mivel Menomaru minden mesterkedése ellenére Sesshomaru kardja, Tenseiga nem volt képes megtörni a varázslatot, így Menomarut már csak egy cél vezérli: bármi áron megszerezni a féldémon kutya, Inuyasha kardját. De neki sincs egyszerű dolga.

Az egész történet azzal kezdõdik, hogy megszületik InuYasha, s édesapja érte és édesanyjáért áldozza fel magát.

A kard átveszi fölötte az irányítást és ész nélküli tombolásba kezd. A nyaklánca ami eddig kordába tartotta, darabokra hull. A kard InuYasha apjának régi ellenségét támasztja fel, s fordítja a testvérpár ellen.

A szigeten élõ féldémon gyermekek végül úgy döntenek, hogy közülük a legfiatalabbat elküldik a külsõ világba segítségért.

Shesshomaru-nak szintén nézeteltérése támad az egyik istennel, így magától értetõdõen - a saját útját egyedül járva - õ sem marad ki a misztikus sziget sötét titkának felfedésébõl.
