Enter Sango, the Demon Slayer
Sango, her father, her brother, and a few other demon slayers are tricked into fighting a spider demon. All the demon slayers are killed except Sango.
Kagome, Inuyasha, Shippo, and Miroku find the village where Sango lived. They came looking for Sango when they heard that she had a shard of the Shikon Jewel. The village was devastated the night before by a horde of demons summoned by Naraku. Kagome and the others bury the dead villagers.
Sango is recovering when she hears about what happened to her village and about a half-demon named Inuyasha. Naraku tells her that Inuyasha is the one who destroyed her village. She vows to get revenge.
Myoga returns in this episode. He didn't play a very big role but it has probably been a dozen or more episodes since he was last seen.
There wasn't much revealed about Sango's father or Kohaku, her brother.
Sango has been present in the opening credits since the very first episode but this is the first time she has appeared in the show. Her primary weapon is Hiraikotsu, a large boomerang.
This episode moved fairly quickly. I like seeing the world expand as it did in this episode. The opening credits make it look like Sango will be a regular on the show. Presumably she and Inuyasha will fight in the next episode, as do most superheroes when they meet for the first time.
