Translations of this chapter, but with different styling/content are also available - a plain text version and also a text version with all the original Japanese for the speech and sound effects. Translation notes and style Although scene descriptions are provided, it is not nearly the same as seeing it for yourself. If you enjoy the series, I would strongly recommend buying the tankoubon (collected version, each about 180 pages or 10 chapters long, costing 410 yen) when they become available (typically 3-4 months after the weekly Shonen Sunday release), and the first 15 volumes are now on sale. Warning: These translations will occationally include strong language, and violence, though this is only when it is present in the original Japanese version. ------------------------------------------------------------ Page 1 1 [View of rushing forwards desperately (towards the camera), with a closeup side view of Kagome looking a little sad behind him.] Title Erased Mind ------------------------------------------------------------ Page 2 1 [Closeup of Inuyasha looking a bit worried.] Inuyasha So Kohaku is still after all... an agent of Naraku! 2 [Wide-angle shot of Inuyasha and Miroku standing near each other looking at Kagura who smiles.

You're already too late. ------------------------------------------------------------ Page 3 1 [Closeup of Inuyasha looking pretty mad.] Inuyasha You bastards are using Kohaku, fx Inuyasha *grind teeth...* Inuyasha to get Kagome... 2 [Closeup of Kagura with a smile.] Kagura Whatever...

Sango Ah... yeah... 6 [Scene change to a view of Inuyasha rushing through the forest.] fx Inuyasha swish 7 [Closeup side view of Inuyasha. He looks quite worried.] Inuyasha Kagome... where are you!? ------------------------------------------------------------ Page 7 1 [Scene change to another part of the forest.] fx leaves rustle... 2 [Closeup of a little hole in the ground, by a tree. (not sure if natural or made by some animal.) Kohaku's head is visible looking out from inside it.] Kohaku The Youkai aren't following anymore. 3 [Closeup of the hole, with Kagome visible poking her head out a bit too.] Kagome Wait, Kohaku-kun. Kohaku Eh? 4 [View from inside the hole from just behind Kagome - some Saimyoushou are seen flying past.] fx Saimyoushou bzzbzz... 5 [Wider view of Kagome and Kohaku inside the hole, looking out.] Kagome The Saimyoushou are searching for us... We better stay hidden until Inuyasha and the others come. ------------------------------------------------------------ Page 8 1 [Kagome looks up at Kohaku.] Kohaku That girl... Kagome Eh...? 2 [Closeup side view of Kohaku, looking a bit worried.] Kohaku I wonder if she's okay. 3 [View of outside the hole looking in on Kagome talking to Kohaku.] Kagome Ah, probably - Sango-chan is very strong. Don't worry. 4 [Closeup of Kagome with a tend look.] Kagome Say Kohaku-kun, can't you remember still? That Sango-chan is your elder sister, I mean... 5 [Closeup of Kohaku.] Kohaku No... However, she's... ------------------------------------------------------------ Page 9 1 [Closeup side view of Kohaku.] Kohaku somehow feels very dear to me... 2 [Scene change to Sango rushing along on Kirara, with Miroku and Sango sitting behind her.] fx Kirara whoosh 3 [Closeup of Sango looking very tense.] Sango Kohaku... Should it be that you have been deceiving us... ------------------------------------------------------------ Page 10 1 [White frame.] Sango and... have actually gone as far as hurting Kagome-chan... 2 [Closeup side view of Sango looking very tense.] Sango then at that time Kohaku! By my own hand, I will... -------- [COMMENTS] Sango obviously means she'll take direct action against Kohaku. The implication is that she will even kill Kohaku if it comes down to it. (Sounds pretty cruel I know... I guess that Sango thinks she might never get the real Kohaku back from Naraku) 3 [Scene change - misty frame.] 4 [Closeup of Inuyasha looking a bit frustrated, and sweating a bit from exertion.] Inuyasha Dammit, what's going on? 5 [View of Inuyasha standing on a rocky out-cropping .] Inuyasha I've lost Kagome's scent... It got dispersed on the fucking way. fx Inuyasha shh ------------------------------------------------------------ Page 11 1 [Misty frame.] voice {off} That is because Inuyasha... you have been captured inside of my barrier... 2 [Inuyasha looks around in shock.] Inuyasha ! 3 [Inuyasha looks up to see Naraku (in baboon pelt) a short distance behind him.] fx Inuyasha shh Inuyasha Naraku! Naraku Kukuku... ------------------------------------------------------------ Page 12 1 [Closeup side view of Naraku.] Naraku You won't be able to manage finding where Kagome is. 2 [Inuyasha face darkens angrily.] Inuyasha Naraku you bastard... Your target's been Kagome from the first huh... 3 [Closeup side view of Naraku.] Naraku Kukuku... that's what I sent Kohaku in for. To have him kill Kagome and take the Shikon fragments she has. 4 [Closeup of Inuyasha thinking angrily.] Inuyasha Th, that brat. He looked like he couldn't even kill a fucking fly. 5 [View of Naraku.] Naraku Kukuku... he seems to have deceived you thoroughly. But then... ------------------------------------------------------------ Page 13 1 [Closeup of Naraku.] Naraku that's because even Kohaku himself... is unaware of that fact that, he's deceiving you arseholes. 2 [Closeup side view of Inuyasha looking surprised.] Inuyasha Wha... What's going on!? 3 [Scene change - misty frame.] 4 [View of the hole in the ground by the tree.] 5 [Closeup of the two inside the hole.] Kagome Sango-chan you know, was always worried about you Kohaku-kun, while you were separated. Kohaku ...... 6 [Closeup of Kagome looking a little sad.] Kagome She always seemed to be strong, but... sometimes she had a very sad looking expression. 7 [Closeup of Kohaku, looking a bit surprised.] ------------------------------------------------------------ Page 14 1 [Closeup of Kagome with a smile.] Kagome That's why it's really great... that you came back and all, Kohaku-kun. 2 [Closeup of Kohaku, taking this in.] 3 [Kagome continues to look up at Kohaku with a smile.] Kohaku Is... it okay for me to be with her...? Kagome Of course it is. 4 [View of the two from another angle.] Kagome If you do that, before long you'll surely start remembering about Sango-chan. Kohaku Yeah... 5 [Closeup of Kohaku, looking a bit down-hearted.] Kohaku I want to remember... Both everything about her... and about me too. But... ------------------------------------------------------------ Page 15 1 [Closeup side view of Kohaku.] Kohaku what is this feeling...? Scared... as if... 2 [Black frame.] Kohaku there's something I mustn't remember... 3 [Scene change to misty frame.] 4 [Inuyasha and Naraku face off.] Naraku Kukuku. Inuyasha... why do you think Kohaku has lost his memory? 5 [Closeup of Inuyasha.] Inuyasha Probably because you manipulated his mind. 6 [Closeup of Naraku.] Naraku Kukuku... Indeed. However... ------------------------------------------------------------ Page 16 1 [View of Naraku.] Naraku Kohaku himself is refusing to remember... his abominable memory... 2 [Flashback drawing to when Kohaku killed his father and friends.] Naraku {off} that with his own weapon, he killed his father and comrades. 3 [Closeup of Inuyasha looking angry.] Inuyasha That's... because you made him do it! 4 [Closeup side view of Naraku.] Naraku Kukuku... he himself wants to forget. So, I made him forget everything. 5 [Inuyasha and Naraku look at each other.] Naraku So now that Kohaku's mind has become purely blank, manipulating him, is a trivial matter. ------------------------------------------------------------ Page 17 1 [Naraku raises a hand.] Naraku Just like this... fx Naraku (fingers) *snap...* 2 [Cut to a closeup side view of Kohaku. Energy crackles around him, coming from the Shikon fragment in his back.] fx fragment *high pitched ringing* 3 [Kagome is at the entrance, looking out somewhat pensively. Kohaku looms darkly behind her.] Kagome Inuyasha's late... 4 [Kagome turns around with a smile.] Kagome Say, after all, shall we go out for a bit, huh... ------------------------------------------------------------ Page 18 1 [View of Kagome and Kohaku behind her, who has a blank expression and his blade raised over his head.] Kagome Kohaku-ku... 2 [The blade slashes down.] fx blade vish 3 [White frame, with a splatter of blood.] fx sound *slice* 4 [Scene change to Sango rushing along on Kirara, looking rather desperate.] Sango Kagome-chan... Kohaku! Last modified August 18th 2000
