Amazon.com: As Rumiko Takahashi's "Feudal Fairy Tale" continues, the main storyline about recapturing the fragments of the Shikkon Jewel recedes and shorter adventures come to the fore. At the end of season 3, Inu-Yasha destroyed the magical barrier protecting his enemy Naraku: the evil demon fled, leaving no trail. Naraku's absence allows dozens of minor demons to emerge from hiding and cause problems that Kagome, Sango, Miroku, Shippo, and Inu-Yasha must undo. An eccentric exorcist tangles with Miroku and the imprisoned spirit of a lovely princess; the demon Orchidayu creates fake Shikkon Jewels in an effort to strengthen his servants. Some of the adventures take a comic turn. When Kagome's younger brother develops his first crush on a classmate, he asks Inu-Yasha's advice about how to approach the girl. (Asking the terminally insensitive Inu-Yasha for romantic advice is about as sensible as asking a vegetarian how to cook a pot roast.) A shape-shifting raccoon spirit impersonates Miroku so accurately, he gets the lecherous monk in trouble with the women of two villages. By this point, the characters in Inu-Yasha have become so familiar, their antics feel entertaining even when they don't really advance the plot. Although this package is labelled Fourth Season Box Set, the opening animation and song change after episode 95, suggesting there's some overlap. The Deluxe Edition (ASIN# ) includes a model of Miroku's prayer beads (a Buddhist rosary) in aqua plastic. (Rated Teen: suitable for ages 13 and older: violence, grotesque imagery) --Charles Solomon
Description: Come along for a timeless adventure in season four of INUYASHA! Modern-day schoolgirl Kagome and half-demon Inuyasha and friends continue their quest through feudal-era Japan to find and vanquish the evil demon Naraku and gather all the shards of the Shikon Jewel. Along the way, they are befriended and bedeviled by an array of characters: Koga of the wolf-demon tribe, mischievous magic-wielding monkey sprites, and an old-lady exorcist of questionable abilities.
Bilingual: English dub and Japanese with English subtitles.

InuYasha Season 4 I ordered this product from Amazon but then found the same one at Walmart for $50.00 less. I returned the one I bought and they refunded my money.I bought the one from Walmart.Inu Yasha: Season 4 box set
UP TO EXPECTATIONS LIKE ANYONE BUYING ONLINE YOU WANT TO KNOW IF THE PRODUCT YOUR BUYING IS IN GOOD CONDITION. MY BOX SET ARIVED WELL PACKAGED AND UNOPENED, WHEN I PLAYED THEM THE DVD'S RAN PERFECTLY AND DIDN'T HAVE ANY PROBELMS. THISISN'T THE FIRST TIME I BUY FROM AMAZON SO I AM CONFIDENT IN THEIR PRODUCTS. I WAS COMPLELTLY SATISFIED WITH MY PURCHASE AND I HOPE OTHERS WILL BUY WITH A EASY MIND.
my review Season four gave us more of the same blood thirsty half-demon we want to see. However, many of the subplots, quests, and secondary characters have all but vanished. There was no search for a higher technique (wind scar, backlash wave, barrier breaker). The love triangle has really taken a backseat(Kikyo was barely in the season). Totosei, Myoga, and Kikyo had reduced screen time, and the total lack of Naraku made things a little less exciting. There were some bright spots such as the monkey sprite episode that was full of humor. Overall this was the least entertaining season of the bunch, but still gets four stars for delivering great action, true characters, and a continuation of an overall interesting story.
Probably the Weakest Season of a Terrific Series In the Inuyasha Season Four DVD Box Set you will recieve 18 interesting and fairly good episodes of the series on four DVDs. Naraku has disappeared after being pushed to the brink of destruction. Now our heros must find the fiend and finish him once and for all. However, it's not as easy as it sounds.
Let me begin by saying that Season Four of this series is probably the weakest one in regards to quality and length, unless you count a Season Seven made from the last seven episodes of the series, in which case that would be the weakest, though I believe all those episodes are better than these 18. All other seasons of Inuyasha,(1-3,5,6) have 27 episodes.
Really, these 18 episodes are more so on the light side of entertainment as the majority of them are based off of comedic plots. By the end of the season they don't find Naraku, in fact he never even appears in the season, though he is mentioned MANY times. This lack of Naraku is a huge weakness to the season, as is its length and large number of seemingly pointless episodes that barely advance the plot if at all.
Despite this however, I must admit that every comedic episode is funny in its own way, from the Three Sprites of the Monkey God to Sota's Brave Confession of Love, and even Jaken Falls Ill, though that last one is more heartwarming than anything. Other funny episodes include Kirara Come Home! and Nursing Battle of the Rival Lovers. This season does have a few interesting and important episodes such as the introduction of Ayame, and of course the most important episode of the season plot wise, Kikyo's Lonely Journey. Information from this episode will play a huge role in Season Five, what I consider to be the best season of the series.
Extras are lacking as is usual for these box sets and to pay 80 dollars is ridiculous in my opinion. I found this for 35 at a nearby Wal Mart which I believe is a much more appropriate price. Still, while there are less episodes and most may seem pointless, they do have their charm. Overall, this set is a must own for any Inuyasha Collector. I can't wait until my favorite season,five,is finally released!
