The Soul Piper and the Mischievous Little Soul
Kagome encounters the spirit of Mayu, a dead girl, in the modern era. Mayu died in a fire that almost killed her younger brother. He has been in a coma ever since. Mayu bears a grudge against her mother and tries to kill her brother, more than once.
Kagome tries to talk some sense into Mayu but the girl won't listen. Inuyasha warns Kagome that Mayu is in danger of being dragged down to Hell by a spirit known as the Soul Piper. Kagome renews her efforts to get through to Mayu but it isn't until after the Soul Piper tries to drag Mayu away that she listens.
Most of this episode takes place in the modern era with only a few qick scenes set in the feudal era.
I was surprised by how they recreated the scene where Mayu died in the fire. It wasn't as graphic as it possibly could be but it was a little shocking.
The ending of the episode was surprisingly moving to me.
