We learn in the anime that Kirara was once Midoriko's companion and she has been fighting alongside the demon slayers for a VERY long time considering "The Tragic Love Song Of Destiny" reveals that she was even the partner of Sango's grandfather Shako. Perhaps Midoriko fell in love with and married the leader of the demon slayer clan of that time era and then after her passing, Kirara returned to the village to stay with the descendants of her best friend ever since.

[[WMG: Relating to the above idea, Midoriko is also Inuyasha's ancestor.]]
Izayoi had a similar face and appearance to Midoriko so it's possible that one of her children or grandchildren eloped with a nobleman and if Midoriko is Sango's ancestor than that would mean she and Kohaku are Inuyasha's VERY distant cousins several times removed.

* Another thought is that we don't hear about quarter-demons because they're both rare (very few hanyou fall in love sucessfully with humans), and possibly much harder to detect (offspring will be almost entirely human with minimal youkai traits, and so would be counted as "human" to most).

* This actually makes sense if one considers a few things: Kagome's family shrine is located in close proximity to Kaede's village where she settles after marrying Inuyasha; Kagome becomes a priestess after moving back to the Feudal Era, and her family are a long line of priests, so perhaps she is the first of their priestly line and build the shrine, which she herself mentions existed before the modern Tokyo; since Inuyasha has no last name, their children would likely use her surname, which would be passed down to their descendants. Thus, Kagome went back in time and married her own ancestor in order to ensure her own existence so she could go back in time to ensure her own existence, over and over again. StableTimeLoops are weird like that.

*In a way, you are right. I am reading the manga again and it is way more clear that the revived Kikyo (at first) is just the hatred she had before dying and that it was still inside Kagome's soul. However, later she develops more emotions it seems.

*But when he is fully human he might be fertile, since he is not technically hybrid then. That would explain why there's not 1/4 youkai people in this universe. At the time of the conception, both parents are humans, hence the baby will be human too.

** It would hardly take supernatural foresight to guess what powers Sesshomaru might develop (the arm thing aside, the sword thing was kind of hinted at by the existence of Tensaiga and Tessaiga), and if all hanyou if a daiyoukai develop similar problems, then it really was mostly a matter of knowing Sesshomaru's personality.

** Only, in the manga, the Noh-mask has a history going back far enough to seemingly defy that (or, at least, it isn't a case of YouAllReadyChangedThePast). It is more likely that Japans demons either died out, became quiescent, emigrated for conflict-ridden lands, or went into hiding.

* But then again, most hanyo we see are very young, not at childbearing years. Those who possibly could aren't in a relationship so they can't prove whether or not they can have children.

[[WMG: Shiori will become very powerful as she gets older.]]
The anime shows several times that hanyou are not even much stronger than ordinary humans, but also "low youkai" who look like big snakes and beetles, can effortlessly defeated. At Inuyasha it is most common, but Jinenji and Gyu-oh also showed that they were very strong. In addition, the father and grandfather of Shiori are classified as daiyoukai (very powerful youkai) in the official Wikia. So you can assume that Shiori can effortlessly destroy "low youkai" when she reaches her youth.

[[WMG: In Jinenji the human side is stronger, and in the case of Inuyasha the demonic side.]]
When Inuyasha is hurt, it usually takes only a few hours until his wounds are completely healed. He also looks like an ordinary teenager, although he is already over 200 years old. Jinenji, on the other hand, has many scars on his body, which indicates that his wounds heal much more slowly. And as far as you can judge by his appearance, he also seems to grow older at human speed.
* It could be because Inuyasha the demon side is stronger, which raises its regeneration and life expectancy on a level similar to that of a youkai. On Jinenji, on the other hand, the human side is stronger, so that he heals and grows like a human.
* If so, it could be because Inuyasha's demonic parent was stronger than Jinenji's. But the probability is higher that it is simply a coincidence, because later you can also see the hanyou-children from the Horai Island. None of them have a daiyoukai as their parent, but they have not grown older for centuries.

[[WMG: All hanyou have a [[SuperpoweredEvilSide powerfull evil side]].]]
In the plot, it is often seen that when Inuyasha is dominated by his demonic side, he becomes very brutal and sadistic, and gets into a frenzy. His eyes then shine red, and for a short time he will turn from a half-demon into a pure demon. The reason for this is that he has the blood of a very powerful youkai in himself, and therefore gets more frenzied, but he does not differ very much from almost all other hanyou, as far as other "mystical rules" are concerned. Like other half-demons, he transforms himself once a month into a pure human being, an example.
* His father had the sword Tessaiga made at first, because he knew that Inuyasha this can happen, and he wanted to protect him from it. But it is unknown how he knew that. The most likely presumption is that he has encountered other hanyou, whom he has experienced in such a state.

* Probably all Hanyou cannot have children. Hanyou (hanbun youkai in Japanese) are known everywhere. However, only half-demons are spoken, never of a quarter-demons or quarter-humans. This implies that hanyou cannot have children by nature.

[[WMG:Izumo / Gyu-oh had too strong spiritual powers for a hanyou.]]
All the hanyou you see in the anime do not look like humans all the time. The only exception is Gyu-oh, who looks like a pure human during the day, and at night like a pure bull-youkai. The reason why he is an [[InvoluntaryShapeshifter involuntary shapeshifter]] is never mentioned, and the protagonists also do not meet another hanyou, who is like Gyu-oh.
* But in ''Anime/InuYashaTheMovieFireOnTheMysticIsland'' it is explained that the spiritual power of humans and the demonic power of youkai are united in harmony in a hanyou. Perhaps both of Gyu-oh's forces were not united in harmony, and he has therefore changed. And perhaps it was because his father was a monk, with very strong, spiritual powers. During the day, the spiritual forces were predominant, and at night the demonic forces. Kikyo also said once in terms of the sacred jewel that she can not use it at night because the demonic forces are too strong.
* You can doubt whether Koga Kagome really loved, but if they had both come together and had children, perhaps it would have been the case that the children [[TotallyNotAWerewolf looked like humans during the day and at night like wolf-youkai]].

[[WMG:The youkai are not seen in Kagome's time because the [[TheMagicGoesAway magic has disappeared]].]]
Inuyasha's time is almost full of youkai. Humans can hardly go into a forest without encountering one of them. In Kagome's time, however, you see almost no youkai. The only exceptions are the Noh mask and the sword So'unga. Both youkai, however, were in a kind of magical sleep until they became active. The Noh mask was "awakened" by the sacred jewel, and the sword of Kagome's younger brother. So maybe there are a lot of youkai in this magical sleep until they wake up one day.
* This also affects the spiritual forces of the humans. Kagome's grandfather has very weak, spiritual powers, compared to the monks and priestesses in Inuyasha's time. And Kagome also got her spiritual powers only when she was in Inuyasha's time.

What's more if Stockman keeps the pieces of the mirror in place despite somthing being embedded in the giant or Kanna or Kanna's heart then the mirror's self healing would cause a RealityBreakingParadox or 3 implosions(one for the Mirror, one for Kanna's heart and one more for Kanna herself).
