4	!!This fic contains examples of the following tropes:
5	* AdaptationExpansion:
6	** Some filler arcs are included to expand on the lore and characters. For example, the arc proceeding Yura's defeat involves a kamaitachi killing several chickens and framing Inuyasha in order to drive him out of the village, which also enables Inuyasha and Kagome to bond and truly become friends.
7	** Sango is involved in the story arc involving Tokajin, unlike the manga or anime[[note]]the manga because she wasn't introduced until immediately after, the anime because she was away getting her Hiraikotsu repaired[[/note]].
8	* AdaptationalAngstUpgrade: Inuyasha is more prone to angst and crying than his canon counterpart, especially regarding his childhood and relationship with Kikyo.
9	* AdaptationalEarlyAppearance: As in the anime, Sango is introduced immediately after to the arc involving [[ImAHumanitarian Tokajin]] rather than immediately after, though here, his arc is immediately after ''her'' introduction, and Sango participates in the fight with him.
10	* AdaptationalLateAppearance: As in the anime, Tokajin is introduced after Sango rather than the other way around, though his arc is moved to immediately after Sango's introduction rather than after Inuyasha learns the Backlash Wave.
11	* AdaptationalJerkass:
12	** Downplayed. While not actively malicious, Sango isn't as accepting of Inuyasha as she was in canon, her behavior leaning on the InnocentBigot side. [[CharacterDevelopment She gets better]].
13	** Played straight with Kikyo. [[spoiler:When they find her in Sayo's village, she all but admits she never truly loved Inuyasha and finds him a "disgusting half-demon," merely using him and convincing him into using the Shikon Jewel to become human as a means to [[IJustWantToBeNormal be free of her responsibilities]]. Even after confirming their story that Naraku set them up, she refuses to let go of her rage, later going so far as to push Kagome off a cliff after stealing her jewel shards on the grounds that [[ThereCanBeOnlyOne there's only one Kikyo]].]]
14	* AdaptationalNiceGuy:
15	** While he still has his angry and rude side, Inuyasha reaches an understanding with Kagome much quicker than in the manga and anime, and even becomes a FriendToAllChildren in the village.
16	** Kagome is also far more patient with Inuyasha and doesn't use [[RestrainingBolt the "sit" command]] nearly as often. Best shown during the toad demon arc with Amari Nobunaga; rather than "sit" him to get him out of the way of her AerosolFlamethrower, Kagome merely tells him to get down.
17	** Shippo is also far more respectful of Inuyasha, with the two not butting heads nearly as often.
18	* AdaptationRelationshipOverhaul: Inuyasha and Kagome manage to reach an understanding and become friends much sooner than in the anime and manga, where their early relationship was defined by constant bickering and TeethClenchedTeamwork.
19	* BoxingLessonsForSuperman: After she joins the team, Sango begins training Inuyasha in swordplay. It pays off during Totosai's debut, when he [[spoiler:takes on Sesshomaru in a straight fight and wins.]]
20	* CanineCompanion: Inuyasha eventually gets one in the form of Arashi, an electrical dog demon who once belonged to his father. In fact, Arashi was sealed away and intended to be bequeathed to Inuyasha once he was born, but Myoga forgot to undo the seal.
21	* CanisMajor: Arashi usually appears as a [[FunSize smaller puppy form]], but he can assume a much larger form, described as being twice the size of Kirara's MegaNeko form.
22	* CPRCleanPrettyReliable: During the Fake Water God Arc, Kagome performs this on Inuyasha after he drowns in the lake and manages to resuscitate him. Inuyasha, as well as the others, mistake this for an actual kiss.
23	-->'''Inuyasha''': How many times...are you gonna kiss me?
24	* DueToTheDead: After retrieving Shippo's father's pelt from the Thunder Brothers, Kagome, Inuyasha, and Shippo use Kagome's matches to cremate it.
25	* InnocentBigot: In their initial meeting, Sango assumes that Kagome "tamed" Inuyasha and refers to him as a "[[YouAreACreditToYourRace credit to his kind]]."
26	* IveComeTooFar: Even after discovering the truth behind her death and Naraku, Kikyo is unable to let go of her rage and hatred. It's clear that she knows how far she's fallen from the heroic priestess she once was, but she's convinced she's BeyondRedemption and sees no reason to stop.
27	-->'''Kaede''': How long do ye plan on bearing this needless grudge against Inuyasha?! As long as you continue to bear hatred, you will never find peace!\
28	'''Kikyo''': ...Maybe I don't want to.
29	* NamedByTheAdaptation: Kagome's mother and grandfather are given the names Atsuko and Sanosuke, respectively.
30	* ShoutOut: After getting vomited out by Tokajin, Inuyasha comments on him "[[Film/TheEmpireStrikesBack smelling bad on the outside]]."
31	* YouCantGoHomeAgain: Chapter 110 reveals that [[spoiler:after Izayoi's death, the villagers near Inuyasha's childhood home wasted no time forming an [[TorchesAndPitchforks angry mob]] and chasing him off, burning his house down in the process.]]
32	* YourMom: During their initial fight, Inuyasha holds back and tries to reason with Sango... until she insults his mother by claiming she must have been "very stupid or desperate" to conceive him with his father. He immediately beats her back and comes close to killing her with his bare hands, but Kagome arrives just in time to stop him.
