Inuyasha season 4 episode 95, titled "The Sacred Jewel Maker, Part 2," continues from the previous episode with the gang on a mission to stop Naraku from obtaining the Sacred Jewel. In the previous episode, Kagome and the others encountered Totosai, a swordsmith who revealed that he knew the whereabouts of the Sacred Jewel maker, a person who could repair the tainted Sacred Jewel and clear out any impurities.
The episode begins with Totosai leading Inuyasha, Kagome, Miroku, Sango, and Shippo to the Sacred Jewel maker's location. Upon arriving, they are separated and must navigate a dangerous mountain path filled with traps set by Naraku's demons. Shippo, who is separated from the group, makes a new friend in the form of a mischievous yet friendly imp named Manten.
The group eventually reunites and makes it to the Sacred Jewel maker's cave. Inside, they meet the Sacred Jewel maker, a kind elder who agrees to help them purify the Sacred Jewel. However, before they can begin, they are attacked by Naraku's demon minions. Inuyasha and the others fight bravely, but they are overpowered and forced to retreat.
Outside the cave, the group devises a plan to combat Naraku's minions and keep the Sacred Jewel maker safe. Kagome comes up with the idea to use her spiritual powers to create an illusion of an endless cliff, which would trick the demons into falling to their deaths. The plan is successful, and the group is able to return to the cave to start the purification process.
As the purification process begins, the Sacred Jewel's impurities start to take a physical form, attacking the group and the Sacred Jewel maker. Inuyasha and the others fight back, but they soon realize that they need to purify the impurities inside the Sacred Jewel itself. Kagome uses her spiritual powers to enter the Sacred Jewel and fight off the impurities from within.
Meanwhile, Naraku appears outside the cave, preparing to launch a full-scale attack on the group. Inuyasha goes to face him, leaving the others to protect the Sacred Jewel maker and Kagome, who is still inside the Sacred Jewel. Inuyasha and Naraku engage in a fierce battle, with Inuyasha ultimately gaining the upper hand. However, Naraku is able to escape before Inuyasha can deliver the final blow.
Back inside the cave, Kagome is able to purify the impurities inside the Sacred Jewel, restoring it to its original state. The episode ends with the Sacred Jewel maker giving the group a powerful talisman, which they hope will aid them in their battle against Naraku.
Overall, "The Sacred Jewel Maker, Part 2" is a fast-paced and action-packed episode that continues the ongoing battle between Inuyasha and his friends against Naraku. It introduces new characters and challenges, while also advancing the overall plot of the season.
