Yashahime: Princess Half-Demon (半妖の夜叉姫)

Towa and Setsuna.

Between us half-demon twins, two different worlds exist at the same time.

Human and demon.

Feudal era and present day.

Peacefulness and war.

Joy and sorrow.

Dreams and reality.

One moment and eternity.

And finally, love and hate.

A Feudal Fairytale, Yashahime: Princess Half-Demon.

We'll keep moving forward through the hurdles of destiny!

HALF-DEMON GIRL – TOWA HIGURASHI

It's here.

LEADER OF THE DEMON SLAYERS – KOHAKU

Nice work, Towa.

Nanasuke, Rokuta, be careful of its poison.

DEMON SLAYER ROKUTA

– Yeah! – Leave it to us!

DEMON SLAYER NANASUKE

Bring it down, Hisui and Setsuna.

Cyclone Burst!

MASTER OF HIRAIKOTSU – HISUI

Hiraikotsu!

Amazing!

They're getting better at working together.

DEMON SLAYER SETSUNA

And Towa, you're getting better at sensing demon energy.

Yeah, but just barely, I think...

"Meeting through an Apple"

MEETING THROUGH AN APPLE

ONE OF THE FOUR PERILS – KYUKI

Master.

BEAST KING RULING THE FOUR PERILS – KIRINMARU

It is I, Kyuki.

Tokotsu has been defeated by Beniyasha and the daughters of Sesshomaru.

The daughters of Sesshomaru?

Unless we take action, I fear they will bring you disaster...

By the way, Kyuki, who is this Tokotsu again?

He was one of the Four Perils under your command.

The one to whom you bestowed the Red Rainbow Pearl.

Ah, that's right...

If Tokotsu served under me, then he must have been quite the warrior.

Defeated by Sesshomaru's daughters... I must hand it to them.

If you would allow me, I can take care of this matter.

It's not to my taste...

Understood. Then I shall start with Sesshomaru's daughters.

VILLAGE ELDER PRIESTESS KAEDE

Welcome back.

I'm back.

Oh.

That's right. Hey, Setsuna!

Can you play your violin?

That's fine.

Mama Moe would play for me whenever I came home after a fight...

We sure bought a lot of stuff, huh, Setsuna?

Are you sure it's okay to buy so much?

Don't worry about it! It'll be my treat for today.

Thank you.

Oh, that's right. Here.

Come on, Setsuna, you too.

Oh, thank goodness.

Setsuna can finally fall asleep.

I'm glad.

I'm so glad...

We're not taking Towa with us?

No.

What?! She went to slay demons?

Without me?!

You were sleeping so peacefully.

Unbelievable! How can she leave me behind?!

It's like... It's like she thinks I'm in the way or something!

JAGAKON / TASTY PORK / SPRING WATER

But I guess I'll have to...

...prove that I can be reliable!

Are you heading out?

I'm off to find Mount Musubi's butterfly.

After all, that's why I came to this world.

Okay, I'm heading out!

East is that way. Okay, let's go!

Geez, this tastes disgusting.

I guess it's pointless to use a modern map...

KANTO AREA ROAD MAP

There's not a single thing Moroha brought that's actually useful.

You seemed troubled by something, Mr. Samurai.

PIRATE WASHED ASHORE – RIKU

Is something the matter?

Oh, I'm no one suspicious, I promise you.

Okay, then don't bother me.

Oh no, I can't do that. I'm also lost, you see.

"Also"? Don't loop me in with you.

But you have lost your way, haven't you?

I haven't lost my way, I'm looking for the Dream Butterfly.

I doubt butterflies are common at this time of year.

I heard there are some at Mount Musubi.

What's this?

I thought you were a samurai, but you're a princess.

I'm terribly sorry for my mistake.

Please wait, my princess.

I'm having trouble finding my way back to my ship.

Ship? Does that mean the ocean is nearby?

That's the one thing I'm sure of.

Dang it. I thought I was heading to the mountains,

but I ended up closer to the sea.

You're right, I smell water from that direction.

Thank you.

Okay, let's go.

Whoa, hey!

TEAMASTER – SOKYU

So this is the ocean?

I guess it's a bit too small to be an ocean!

But if I follow this river, it'll lead me to the ocean.

Thank you, you've been a great help.

This feels nice. Feels perfect for a picnic.

Oh, wow.

Is that some kind of magic trick?

Anyone can do this with a little bit of focus!

I'm sure you can, too, Princess.

You think so?

Hey Mister, care to join me?

Not to be rude, Princess, but I'm no "Mister."

The name is Riku.

And yours, Princess?

Well, I'm no princess. I'm Towa Higurashi.

So you're Riku, huh? Got it.

Just remember me as Riku the pirate, Lady Towa.

What?! You're a pirate?

Rest assured. I don't take from women, children, or the poor.

Wow, these are all fascinating things.

POTATO CHIPS / JAGAKON / MINTY FRESH

And these are all edible?

Help yourself!

Well, don't mind if I do!

Delicious! Such a wonderful flavor.

I've never had something so delicious!

Yeah, I think that apple tastes the best.

Selective breeding has come a long way, and things taste much better now.

So this is an apple.

Unbelievable! A taste like this would surely banish you from paradise.

Oh, and I'll take the core once you're done.

KANTO AREA ROAD MAP

Can't be having it take root and mess up the course of history!

I ate the whole thing, core and all! Thank you for the hospitality.

As one abandoned by his master, it's more than I deserve...

Lady Towa, you've fed me the forbidden fruit.

Huh? Forbidden fruit?

KANTO AREA ROAD MAP

Anyway, Lady Towa, could that katana be the Kikujumonji?

It was a fake, apparently. It broke pretty easily.

I should think so.

The real one should be with Ogigayatsu Hiiragi,

the Deputy Shogun of Kanto, as it was bestowed from the shogun.

The shogun? Deputy Shogun of Kanto?

Well, I must repay your kindness for the apple.

If fate allows it, we shall meet again.

Until then, farewell.

Hey!

Wait, you forgot this.

I would like to present that to you as a gift. Please accept it.

What is this?

I hope you like it, dear princess.

A katana?

Wait, is this real?

Amazing. So this is the real thing...

I recently stole that katana from Ogigayatsu Hiiragi,

so it's the genuine Kikujumonji.

There he goes. Who was he anyway?

Hey, you there.
