General Inuyasha Information =_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_= Console: Playstation Genre: Fighting Designed by: Bandai Number Of Players: 1-2 Rated: Teen Suggested: Memory Card 1 Block, Inuyasha Faness Difficulty (In my opinion): 1/5 ( Very Easy) Fun Factor: 4/5 A pretty good game. Story ^^^^^ This is from the instruction booklet, as usual. (It's from Kagome's point of view) Feudal Japan I'm Kagome Higure, I'm 15 years old. For some reason I was taken back to Feudal Japan. There I met the half-demon, Inuyasha. He was sealed by Kikyo 50 years ago. He was after the Sacred Jewel Of The Four Souls, but it was now inside of me. Other demons sought after the jewel as well, and during battle, it shattered. That’s where my journey with Inuyasha to look for the shards began. During our journey, the evil Naraku appeared. He used every means possible to collect the shards. Our friends Shippo, Miroku, and Sango joined us. One day, we will defeat Naraku! Our journey continues on! Characters ^^^^^^^^^^ Inuyasha ------------- The Half-demon Inuyasha will do anything for the Sacred Jewel. He once wanted to use it to become 100% demon, but then he met a priestess, Kikyo. Kikyo and Inuyasha fell in love, and Inuyasha wanted to use the Jewel to become a peaceful human. But then, Naraku tricked both Kikyo and Inuyasha, turning them against each other. Now, Inuyasha wishes to become a demon once more. Inuyasha stole the jewel, and then Kikyo bound him to a tree with an arrow. Fifty years later, a girl named Kagome fell into a well, and found herself in Feudal Japan. She freed Inuyasha, and people found that Kagome was the reincarnation of Kikyo, and Kagome had the Sacred Jewel inside her. The jewel shattered in battle, and went all across Japan. Now, Inuyasha and a team of friends work at restoring the Jewel! Kagome ------------- Kagome was a regular 15 year old girl in 8th grade. That is, until she fell into a well, and ended up in Feudal Japan. There, she met Inuyasha, and found that she had the Sacred Jewel Of Four Souls inside her, because she was the reincarnation of a Priestess, Kikyo. Kagome got the Jewel out of her, and Inuyasha fought for it. Kagome, finding she was an excellent Archer, shattered the jewel by accident in battle. Now, Kagome and a group of friends search for the jewel! Shippo ----------- Shippo, a Fox Demon, met Inuyasha and Kagome. Shippo, being the brat he was, tried to do many things to the two. Inuyasha and Kagome finally caught up with him, and found he was a halfway good person, so they asked him to join them on their journey. Shippo turned out to be an okay fighter, and a big help. Now, him and his friends all search for the Sacred Jewel! Kikyo ----------- Kikyo, a strong and great priestess, fell in love with the half-demon, Inuyasha. Naraku tricked Kikyo and Inuyasha into hating each other, and Kikyo bound Inuyasha to a tree for 50 years. Kagome, the reincarnation of Kikyo, appeared, and Kikyo was revived. Now, Kikyo roams around, trying to kill Inuyasha so they can die together, and kill Kagome because one Kikyo is enough. Kikyo was a great priestess and an equally good archer. Sango ---------- Sango, the Demon Slayer's village was destroyed thanks to Naraku. She was the only survivor of the entire town, and Naraku tricked her into thinking that Inuyasha was the one that killed all of the villagers. Inuyasha set her straight, telling her it was another one of Naraku's tricks. Sango, and Kirara, Sango's pet cat, joined Inuyasha, Kagome, Shippo, and Miroku. She is a great fighter, and is awesome at slaying demons. Miroku ------------ Miroku is a perverted Monk, with a curse. The curse is the wind tunnel, a hole in his hand that will suck in all of everything around him. Naraku is the one that cursed Miroku's family, and to destroy the curse, Miroku must kill Naraku. In battle, Miroku is both strong and fast. Totosai ------------ Totosai, a weird old man, forged both Inuyasha's and Sesshomaru's sword. He rides a Momo, a three eyed... cow. Other than that he is a blacksmith, nothing is known about his past, other than he knew Inuyasha and Sesshomaru's father. Totosai fights with a hammer. Naraku ----------- Naraku is an evil half-demon that has been planning to get the Sacred Jewel Shard. After he finds out its shattered, he gets pissed off and tries everything he can to get all the pieces. He even tries for Sesshomaru’s help. His assistant, Kugara is a great help also. Naraku fights with Miasma, a kind of poison gas. Kugara ----------- Kugara, a wind demon, is truly strong. She uses wind to attack her opponents and works for Naraku, though she always wished she was free. She can use the dead as puppets, and also wishes the sacred jewel to be hers. Koga -------- Koga is the leader of a powerful wolf tribe. The wolf demon has every wolf in the world at his command. He kidnaps Kagome, and soon falls in love with her. Mostly because of his hatred for Sango, Miroku, Shippo, And Inuyasha, he doesn’t join up the group, but is there to help every once in awhile. He to hates Naraku for tricking him and killing off many of the Wolf-demon tribe members. Sesshomaru ------------------ Sesshomaru is Inuyasha's brother, and uses poison to attack . He has an assistant, Jaken, who is very loyal to Sesshomaru. Sesshomaru is a very strong opponent, who can transform into a full fledge demon already. His demon form is A wolf type thing =|. Demon Inuyasha ------------------------- Inuyasha's demon form. Thirsty for blood, Inuyasha's Demon form doesn't have any memory of before he went berserk. Myoga ---------- Myoga is a flea that basically teaches you things, hangs on to your shards...an out of battle menu character. Jaken -------- Jaken is Sesshomaru's assistant, and is involved in one mini-game, other than that, he is not in the game much. Poisonous Insects ------------------------ A huge threat to Miroku’s Wind tunnel, the Poisonous insects are in a mini-game. Kirara ----------- Kirara is Sango's pet, as well as a loading screen character and Sango's special move. That is everyone that appears in the Inuyasha game.

Attributes --------------- There are three attributes to both the characters and the shards: purified, neutral, and cursed. The attribute of a shard changes depending on the holder of the shard. The shards that a character release during the battle can be taken, except shards that aren’t compatible with the type of character you are. The shards will become neutral after awhile, so then you can pick it up. Purified Shards are Blue. Neutral Shards are purple. Cursed Shards are red. Purified Characters (Can take all shards but cursed): Inuyasha, Sango, Shippo, Koga. Neutral Characters (Can take all shards): Kagome, Miroku, Kikyo, Sesshomaru, Totosai.

Walkthrough =_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_= This is the actual walkthrough of the game, well, as far as a walkthrough can go for a fighting game. Character Moves/Strategies ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ All Moves assume character is facing right. Note- * indicates attack can take opponents Jewel Shard. Inuyasha ------------- Moves: Iron Reaver Soul Stealer: Square. Inuyasha Jumps forward and slashes. Wind Scar*: Left Directional Button + Square. Inuyasha Opens the Wind Scar. Blades Of Blood: Right Direction Button + Square. Inuyasha Fires a long range slash. Dragon Twister: Down + Down + Square. Inuyasha's Super Special attack. Strategy for beating him: Keep your distance. Inuyasha's only long range attack is rather weak if you block it, but his close range attacks are rather strong. Basically, don’t let him hit you at close range, and attack from afar. Miroku ------------ Ashen Salt: Square. Miroku throws holy salt at an opponent. (I have always found this funny.) Spirit Ward: Right Directional Button + Square. Miroku Throws a Flaming Curse at long range. Spirit Hold*: Down Directional Button + Square. Miroku throws a scroll that holds an opponent, then slashes at them. Wind Tunnel: Left + Left + Square. Miroku's Super Special Attack. Strategy for beating him: Always move. His Spirit hold will take your jewel shard at hit you hard, however its hard for him to hit you with it if you are always on your toes. His Spirit Ward can get annoying, and the Ashen salt isn’t to big of a problem. His regular attacks are pretty standard damage dealing wise, not too powerful, but not particularly weak either. Just attack, jump, attack, dash, etc. Kagome ------------ Spiritual Power: Square. Kagome holds out her hand and uses energy to attack. Curse Deflection: Left Directional Button + Square. Kagome is surrounded by pure power, and knocks back opponents. Purification Arrow*: Right Directional Button + Square. Kagome Shots an arrow from her bow Sacred Arrow: Down + Down + Square. Kagome's Super Special Attack. Strategy for beating her: Okay, for this one don’t get to close, but don’t go to far. If close in on her, she will use Curse Deflection and inflict major damage on you, and if you are to far away she will use her arrow and perhaps steal a shard of yours. If you block the arrow, then long range attacks work well. Her normal attacks are rather weak. Shippo ---------- Multiply Spell: Square. Shippo throws three of himself at an opponent. Fox Fire*: Left Directional Button + Square. Shippo surrounds himself with fire. Fire Bombs: Square. This attack works only in air. Transformation: Down Directional Button + Square. Shippo Transforms into his enemy. Illusory Top: Right + Right + Square: Shippo's Super Special Attack. Strategy for beating him: Shippo is hard to hit because of his height. Most Long range attacks wont get him, but if you pull out a Close range rage its pretty easy. His transformation spell is easy to get rid of, just hit him with one of your specials. His Super Special attack is super easy to dodge too. Sango --------- Poison Powder: Square. Sango throws poison at the ground. Hiraikotsu: Right Directional Button + Square. Sango throws her boomerang at an enemy. Chain attack*: Down Directional Button + Square. Sango attacks with her chain. Kirara: Left + Left + Square. Sango's Super Special Attack. Strategy for beating her: Okay, if you are using her, then Sango is awesome. If you are fighting against her, Sango sucks. Her Hiraikotsu will leave her open to attack for quite awhile. Het Chain Attack is easy to dodge. Kirara is Super easy to block. Poison powder all you have to do is back up. So, you see, she is a pushover. Koga ---------- Wolf Kick: Square. Koga delivers a quick, powerful kick. Demon Kick: Left Directional Button + Square. A Powerful kick that sends the opponent in the air and then Koga jumps up and attacks them. Wolf Wind*: Right Directional Button + Square. A quick Tornado charge. Demon Pack: Down + Down + Square. Koga's Super Special Attack. Strategy for beating him: Koga is fast and strong. And he has a deadly combination- Demon Kick, then after the opponent is coming down, Wolf Wind. Deals major damage and allows Koga to steal a shard. To defeat him, use whatever skills you have got. That is not too say he is some awesome all powerful character, there is just no sure way too beat him everytime. Kikyo ---------- Purification: Square. Kikyo sends a bunch of Purification dragons at an opponent. Curse Deflection: Left Directional Button + Square. Kikyo has energy surround her and knocks back a foe. Ascension*: Right Directional Button + Square. Kikyo sends a purification dragon at a foe. Sacred Arrow: Down + Down +Square. Kikyo's Super Special Attack. Strategy for beating her: Kikyo can be a hard opponent, but only until you get the hang of her style. She’s not the hold back kinda girl, if she is close, she will attack you like crazy. If She’s far, she will steal your jewels with Ascension. She is ALWAYS attacking. Be on your guard. Fight full force with full force, and go in crazy style slashing away. Sesshomaru ----------------- Poison Claws: Square. Sesshomaru uses his poison to punch a foe. Whip Of Light: Left Directional Button + Square. Sesshomaru surrounds himself with a whip to knock back opponents. Tokijin*: Down Directional Button + Square. Sesshomaru Attacks using his sword. Demon Transform: Right + Right + Square. Sesshomaru's Super Special Attack. Strategy for beating him: Sesshomaru seems hard, but really is easy. His Sword attack is strong and can leave you shard-less, but at the same time its easy to dodge. The whip of light can be hard to dodge and powerful, but computer players seem to rarely use it. The poison claws aren’t much of a threat. His regular attacks are fairly strong though, so watch out. Kagura ----------- Dance Of Blades: Square. Kugara sends a wheel of wind at a enemy. Dance Of The Dead: Left Directional Button + Square. Kugara uses a dead puppet to attack. Kanna*: Down Directional Button + Square. Kugara uses Kanna's mirror to attack. Dragon Dance: Right + Right + Square. Kugara's Super Special Attack. Strategy for beating her: Kagura isn’t much of a threat as a computer player. Her Dance of the Blades can get annoying, but its fairly weak. Dance Of The Dead is very strong, so watch out for that. Her super special is simple to block. Kanna is weak, but can steal your shards so be careful. Her regular attacks are so-so. Naraku ------------ Miasma: Square. Naraku surrounds himself with his famous Miasma. Demon Puppet: Left Directional Button + Square. Naraku uses his puppet to attack. Poison Insects*: Right Directional Button + Square. Naraku attacks with his insects. Illusory Death: Down + Down + Square. Naraku's Super Special Attack. Strategy for beating him: Naraku is hard, but not extremely. The Demon Puppet is very strong, but still easy to dodge. The Miasma is like Kikyo or Kagome's Curse Deflection, so watch out for it, as it can knock you back. His poison insect are slow and easy to dodge, but if they catch you off guard then he could steal a shard of yours, and inflict minor damage. His strongest attack is his special (obviously), but what makes it so good that unlike others his is actually hard to dodge. Not impossible, but the first few times you see it you will most likely fall prey to it. In the end, all you need too do is time your jumps very well, or move right behind him just as he is about too complete the super special. Totosai ------------ Fire Breath: Square. Totosai Spits a circle of fire. Giant Hammer*: Left Directional Button + Square. Totosai uses his hammer to attack strongly. Momo Drop: Down Directional Button + Square. Momo drops on enemies head. Super Hammer: Right + Right + Square. Totosai's Super Special attack. Strategy for beating him: Totosai is strong and fast. His regular attack is dangerous, and Giant Hammer is strong. His special is easy to dodge (except the second part, but its not TOO dangerous). His best attack would have to be the annoying Momo drop. If you aren’t moving it will almost always hit. Demon Inuyasha ------------------------- Claw: Square. Inuyasha slashes the enemy. Charge*: Right Directional Button + Square. Inuyasha Charges the enemy. Poison Insects: Down Directional Button + Square. Inuyasha Uses poison insects. Demonic Power: Left + Left + Square. Demon Inuyasha's Super Special Attack. Strategy for beating him: Demon Inuyasha isn’t all he is cracked up to be. Sure he is strong and fast, but most of it is just your mind saying "oh no, I'm so cared >.<." He has NO long range attacks so keep your distance. His charge can be annoying, other than that, his claw. And That’s all you need to be worried about. Oh, don’t be near him when he uses his special. Don’t be near him at all. =_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_= iii. Other Things =_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_= Unlockables ^^^^^^^^^^^^ There are a wealthy amount of unlockables that you will most likely spend about 5 hours getting. First, there are characters. Character Unlockables -------------------------------- Inuyasha: You start with him. Kagome: You start with her. Koga: Collect all the needed jewel shards with Inuyasha. Miroku: Collect all the needed jewel shards with Kagome. Kagura: Collect all the needed jewel shards with Koga.

By the time you have all the characters, you will most likely have all the levels Pictures -------------- To get pictures, You need to see the picture first. I.E. to get a loading screen picture, you need to see that loading screen, or to get a "character expression" picture, you need to see that expressoin. Backpack --------------- To unlock the backpack mode, collect all needed jewel shards with Kagome. Mini-Games ------------------- To unlock a Mini-Game, you have to first play the mini-game in Feudal Fairy Tale mode. Mini-Games ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ This game has three mini-games, all of which are unlocked by playing them in Feudal Fairy Tale mode. After you unlock them, you can play them in the Backpack. Below is a short description and strategy for each Mini-Game. Rock Smashing ------------------------ Number Of Players: One. Controls: Same as fighting Shards: Three Time Limit: 30 Seconds Objective: The objective of this game is to smash the whole rock into pebbles. Attack the rock within the time limit to destroy it. If you destroy none of the rock, you get no shards. If you destroy Half of it, you will get a single shard. If you destroy more than half of the rock, you will receive two shards. And if you destroy all of the rock within the thirty second time limit, you will get three shards of the Sacred Jewel. Strategy for beating this mini-game: Okay, to beat the default record of this game, choose Koga. After that, use his Wolf Wind Attack (Right direction button + Square) on the left half of the rock. After this half of the rock is destroyed, you should have your special full. Swiftly and quickly jump to the other side, and use Demon Pack (Down + Down +Square), and immediately start using Wolf Wind again until the rock is gone. The fastest I have done this is 15.26 seconds. Flame Slashing ----------------------- Number Of Players: One. Controls: Same as fighting. Shards: Three Time Limit: 60 Seconds Objective: Extinguish the flames from the Staff of Skulls by slashing at them. If you can hit Jaken within the time limit, you win. Hit him very quickly and get three shards. Hit him when half the time has ran out to get two shards. And hit him when there is almost no time left to receive only a single shard of the Sacred Jewel. Strategy for beating this mini-game: To beat this games default record, use either Koga or Naraku. With Koga, Use his Wolf Wind attack (Right + Square), and plow right into Jaken. The fastest I’ve done it this way was 4.22 seconds. And for Naraku, use his Poison Insects (right + square) two times, and just hit Jaken with them. The fastest I’ve done it this way is 2.21 seconds! Another way, if you can't seem to do it this way is use his Poison Insects, Then his Miasma (Square), and dash to Jaken for a hit. The fastest I have done it this way is 4.17 seconds. Poison Insects! ---------------------- Number Of Players: One. Controls: Same as fighting. Shards: Three Time Limit: 60 Seconds Objective: Defeat 45 of Naraku's Poison insects that he has released in the 60 second time limit. This is super duper easy. If you kill all of them, you will get three shards of the Sacred Jewel. Defeat a medium amount, and receive two shards. And kill only a few to get a single shard. Strategy for beating this mini-game: This games time is very simple to beat. To do it, chose Sango. This is "cheap" but very easy. Use her Hiraikotsu (Right + Square), and just use that the whole thing. Ignore Sango's special, it won't help you here. the quickest I have done this is 38.15 seconds. Levels ^^^^^ There are different levels in the Inuyasha fighting game. Well of course. But anyway, to unlock a level, you must have an event happen there in Feudal Fairy Tale mode. Below is a description of each level. 1000-Year-Old Sacred Tree ---------------------------------------- The 1000-Year-Old Sacred Tree is where Kikyo bound Inuyasha for 50 years. Kagome then came and released Inuyasha. This level is standard, if levels had characters, this levels character would be Inuyasha. Village Of Kaede ------------------------- This is a small village where Kikyo's sister, Kaede, resides. Kikyo also lived here, along with Inuyasha. Kaede strangely is not in this game. If levels had characters, then this levels characters would be Kikyo, and Inuyasha. Musin's Temple ----------------------- This level is at night time. Other than that, this level is completely standard. If levels had characters, this ones would not have one at all. Hidden Village ---------------------- This level has a nice little thing. Where it seems to end, you can attack a tree, and the level will extend. Other than that, this level is very standard. If levels had characters, this level would most likely not have one. Ooyama Village ----------------------- This level is 100% standard. If levels had characters, this level would most likely not have one. Sacred Mountain -------------------------- This level takes place at night. Other than that, it is also 100% standard. If levels had characters, this levels would be Kikyo. Den Of The Demon-Wolfs ----------------------------------------- This level is standard, and takes place at Sunset. If levels had characters, this levels would be Koga. Inside The Black Pearl ---------------------------------- This is another standard level. It takes place in front of a huge demon skull. My personal favorite. If levels had characters, this one would be Demon Inuyasha (Don’t ask why it just seems fitting ;D) Outside Naraku's Fortress -------------------------------------- This level is standard. It takes place in a Miasma filled place. If levels had characters, this levels would be Naraku and Kugara. Inside Naraku's Fortress ---------------------------------- This is a cool level. The Miasma is strong here, so watch out (even though it doesn’t matter). If levels had characters, this level would have Naraku and Kugara. River ------------ This is a standard level. It does have a pretty background though. I'd say this level wouldn’t really have any characters. Destroyed Village ---------------------------- Standard Level, This level wouldn't have any characters, to me at least. Bone-Eaters Well. --------------------------- This is another standard level, like almost all the others. Its nice though. If levels had characters, this one would probably have Kagome. Glitches ^^^^^^^^ I have found many glitches in many games, but in this game I have only found two, and they aren’t even really glitches. Anyway, if you find more, E-mail me at ChaosKnightX@aol.com. Walking glitch ------------------------- Okay this isn’t really a glitch, but it is funny. Just watch the character walk. His/Her feet are off the ground o_0. Manual Glitch ------------------------ Again, this isn’t really a glitch, but it is still cool. If you open the instruction manual, and turn to page18, at the top it says, A, B, C, D, D, as oppose too A, B, C, D, E. Just a little typo in the manual Manual Glitch (2) --------------------------- Another typo was found in the instruction manual, by Stephanie (L0VE My Soilder), and considering I had to read this part of the manual in order to get most the names of the attacks, I must have re-read it 5 times, and yet not even had noticed it. Turn to page 23, and under Demon Inuyasha's attacks, it will read: Poison Insects...Down+Square (Near opponant). Two in one! First of all, that attack is Bite, NOT Naraku's Poison Insects, and second of all, opponant? Please, the translators of a fighting game should at least run spell check, it is spelled opponent. Controls Glitch ---------------------- Well, someone (Ruben_Servin) recently e-mailed me about not being able to change their controls correctly. An example they gave was if they tried to set the weak attack to square, then when they tried to play, weak attack would be circle, or such things as that. I have not ran into this problem, and if anyone else has, and knows a way to fix it, if you could e-mail it to me (ChaosKnightX@aol.com), it would be very helpful. =_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_=_= iv.

Version History ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ 1.0 ------ I made: Story, Characters, Controls, Modes, Map, Battle HUD, Shards, Character Moves/Strategies, Levels, Unlockables, Mini-games, Levels, Glitches, Special Thanks, Legal Stuff, Contact me, and four Player Profiles. 1.1 ------ I cleaned up the walkthrough A LOT, thanks to Kirby240. He pointed out a few misspelled words and other things. 1.2 -------- I finished cleaning it up, and added the controls glitch. 1.3 ------- Alright there was one last error that was bugging the heck out of me. I had to fix it, so did. I re-read this several times again now, so there shold b on mre miscakes. Ha, just kiffing, but seriously, if there is another mistake please report it. The only updates now should most likely be only glitches, or player profiles. 1.4 ----- Added two new player profiles. And fixed a strange formatting error that happened on gamefaqs.com. 1.5 ------ Added a player profile. 1.6 ----- I added yet another player profile. 1.7 ----- Considering I started to think "Player Profiles are NOT enough to earn a whole update," I held back on this one, then I got two e-mails in one day about this FAQ, so I decided to update it. I have added one play profile, a glitch, and fixed another error. I also finally played this game again, and updated my own player profile slightly. I also hate to say that I am VERY sick of this guide, as my love for this game faded rather quikly. So, I will no longer update unless I get 5, yes 5 new things to add. So the next few updates could be very slow.
