Quotes

Now, go. Wherever you desire. Go and enjoy it. The short time you have left. Although, all you will feel is anguish and despair. Kagura, that is the freedom you wished for.

I came following the scent of blood and miasma.

I see. You thought it was Naraku. Are you disappointed? That I wasn't Naraku.

(pause) I knew it was you.

I see... (thinking: You came.. knowing it was me, huh?)

Kagura slouches over.

(thinking: Tenseiga cannot save her.) You're leaving?

Yeah, it's enough. (thinking: In the end, I got to see you.)

Did you notice…?

…Sesshomaru actually has a name for his attacks, Blue Dragon Blast?

What a poetic ending for Kagura… To be given her heart back only to feel her death fully… To die amidst a bed of flowers so commonplace, yet so light that each flutter of wind will send petals flying… To die in front of Sesshomaru, whom she taught might be able to defeat Naraku and return her freedom…
