Description
The beloved fantasy adventure Inuyasha continues with the next generation of demon hunters!
Can the three teenage daughters of demon dog half-brothers Inuyasha and Sesshomaru save their parents, themselves, and both realms from the menace of the seven mystical Rainbow Pearls?
Because of their part-demon heritage, Towa, Setsuna, and Moroha have all temporarily turned human-on the same night that yet another assassin aims to take the girls out! In light of that, Towa wrestles with her identity as a half-demon and wonders what her life could have been if she were a normal human girl. Then, she learns the truth behind the attack that caused their parents' disappearance 14 years ago!

Takashi Shiina debuted in 1989 with Shiina Department Store. His first ongoing series, Ghost Sweeper Mikami Gokuraku Daisakusen!! (Ghost Sweeper Mikami: The Great Paradise Battle!!), was a huge hit. His manga Psychic Squad ran until July 2021 in the magazine Weekly Shonen Sunday. His series Yashahime: Princess Half-Demon is serialized in Shonen Sunday Super.
The spotlight on Rumiko Takahashi's career began in 1978 when she won an honorable mention in Shogakukan's prestigious New Comic Artist Contest for Those Selfish Aliens. Later that same year, her boy-meets-alien comedy series Urusei Yatsura was serialized in Weekly Shonen Sunday. Takahashi followed up the success of her debut series with one blockbuster hit after another-Maison Ikkoku ran from 1980 to 1987, Ranma 1/2 from 1987 to 1996, and Inuyasha from 1996 to 2008. Her recent notable works include Rin-ne and Mao.
Takahashi was inducted into the Will Eisner Comic Awards Hall of Fame in 2018. She won the prestigious Shogakukan Manga Award twice in her career, once for Urusei Yatsura in 1981 and the second time for Inuyasha in 2002. A majority of the Takahashi canon has been adapted into other media, such as anime, live-action TV series, and film.
Yashahime: Princess Half-Demon is set in the world of Takahashi's Inuyasha and continues the adventures of the original characters as well as their descendants.
