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 21 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.

[Shippou, Inuyasha, Kagome and Miroku are on the back of the Tanuki underling of Miroku's, in flying form. Sango is nearby on Kirara.]
fx air whoosh...
Miroku
Have you noticed, Inuyasha?
Inuyasha
Yeah.

[View of Sango looking at some Saimyoushou insects flying nearby.]
fx insects bzz...
Sango
The Saimyoushou are watching us.
3
[Closeup side view of Inuyasha, not looking bothered.]
Inuyasha
Humph.
I bet they're here to make sure we reach the Country of Fire.
4
[View of Miroku and Kagome.]
Miroku
The way they're acting, the Saimyoushou,
seem likely to guide us to the gateway to the boundry between this world and the next.
Kagome
Yeah, though...

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[Closeup of Kagome looking a bit worried.]
Kagome
with him going out of his way to invite Inuyasha,
I wonder if this means Hakudoushi's power isn't enough to pass through the gateway.
2
[View ahead - a large number of barren mountains, with smoke coming from the top and around them. Volcanos.]
fx ground rumble...
3
[The Saimyoushou head towards a large crater at the top of one of the mountains.]
fx insects bzzz...

[View of Sango looking down.]
Sango
They're heading down.

[The Saimyoushou are now near a large rock, pointing out of the ground at an angle. Underneath it, it's quite dark.]
fx insects bzz-bzz...

[Closeup of darkness under the rock - it's a passage.]
fx insects (going into passage) *fade from view...*
3
[Inuyasha and co arrive.]

[View of Inuyasha and Miroku looking into the passage.]
Miroku
Underground huh...

Heh, this sure feels like the entrance to a grave.
5
[Misty frame. Scene change.]

[View of Hakudoushi sitting on a ledge on top of a mountain, putting a hand out to a Saimyoushou. Kagura is standing a few paces behind him.]

[View of the boy turning around to look at Kagura, the Saimyoushou sitting on his hand.]
Hakudoushi
Kagura,
Inuyasha and the others have safely reached the entrance to the gateway.
2
[View of Kagura.]
Kagura
Are you sure about letting them go ahead?
Isn't there a Shikon fragment on the other side of the gateway?
3
[Closeup side view of Hakudoushi.]
Hakudoushi
Of course, I'll be the one to get the fragment first.
To that end Kagura...
4
[View of Kagura.]
Hakudoushi
{off} I have work for you too.
5
[Closeup of Kagura.]
Kagura
Humph, so you'll get the best bits in the end, huh.
6
[View of Hakudoushi, smiling.]
Kagura
{off} In that respect, you're just like Naraku.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1
[Scene change. The group is now passing through a large cave in standard formation - Shippou and Kagome on Inuyasha's back, and Miroku and Sango on Kirara.]
fx cave rumble...
Sango
Sure is spacious...
Inuyasha
The gateway's gotta be pretty darn big then.
2
[View of Shippou and Kagome.]
Shippou
Ka, Kagome...
Kagome
What is it, Shippou-chan?
3
[View of the ground. There are a number of stone-like monsters' heads on the ground.]
Shippou
{off} S, somehow, doesn't these rocks...
look like the faces of Youkai...?
4
[Closeup of Kagome.]
Kagome
You're right.
In addition...
5
[View of the ground, covered with faces.]
Kagome
{off} they seem to be increasing...
6
[Closeup side view of Inuyasha]
Inuyasha
Aren't they just a replacement for paved path to the gateway!?
We're there.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[View of the gateway. It's several times taller than Inuyasha, and is in the shape of an oval. It's fairly plain but there's a thick chain around it. Either side of the gateway is a large statue, each as tall as the gateway. They're quite humanoid for the most part and are also carrying large weapons.]
fx ground rumble...
fx Inuyasha shh

[Black frame.]

[The group look around in confusion.]

[View of the cave.]

Answer.
Do you want to pass?
Or do you not want to pass?
2
[View of Myouga bouncing along Inuyasha's shoulder.]
Myouga
You mustn't answer, Inuyasha-sama.
Inuyasha
Myouga-jijii...?
3
[View of Kagome and Shippou looking at Myouga.]
Shippou
You came with us huh, Myouga-jii.
Kagome
I thought you were long gone.
Myouga
We're running away now!
4
[View of Myouga bouncing along Inuyasha's shoulder.]
Myouga
It's not too late yet.
Retreat!
Inuyasha
Bah! You gotta be dreaming!
5
[View of the gate. There's some large lamps beside the statues, with fire lighting the area.]
fx fire crackle...
Do you want to pass?
Or do you not want to pass?

[The two statues approach Inuyasha. They looks very meanacing.]

2
[View of Myouga bouncing along Inuyasha's shoulder.]
Myouga
They're Gozu and Mezu.
They're the guards.
Inuyasha
Huh!? They're not decorated pillars eh.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[COMMENTS] In Japanese mythology, Gozu and Mezu are often the guardians to the gates of the underworld, or similar. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a way to tell which statue is who.

[Closeup of the statue with shot hair.]
statue#1
This gateway is a place where only the dead may pass.
2
[Closeup of the other statue, which has long hair.]

Those who wish to pass,
will become dead by our hands.
3
[Miroku and Sango look on.]
Miroku
Wha...
4
[Closeup of Inuyasha.]
Inuyasha
Heh, won't pass unless you're dead eh.
I understand why that brat Hakudoushi invited us here.
5
[Inuyasha charges forwards.]
Inuyasha
Anyway...
I don't have the least intention of withdrawing.
fx Inuyasha *dash*

Heh, these guys have huge bodies,
but their movement's sluggish.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[View of the meanacing looking statues.]
fx ground rumble...
statue#1
Futile.

We cannot be slain by a sword from this world (the world of the living).
2
[Inuyasha looks frustrated.]
Inuyasha Ugh...
3
[View of Miroku and Kagome - with Myouga bouncing along her shoulder.]
Miroku
Can't be slain with a sword from this world!?
Myouga
Because Gozu and Mezu aren't from this world.
4
[View of Kagome, with Myouga on her shoulder]
Myouga
Basically, Tetsusaiga is a sword to mow down Youkai from this world.
Kagome
T, then, how do you stop Gozu and Mezu...?
5
[Closeup of Myouga.]
Myouga
Once Gozu and Mezu have begun to move,
they won't stop until the gateway has been opened and closed again.
In other words...

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Pass...
statue#2
as one of the dead.

[Closeup of Inuyasha looking determined.]

Bah!
There's no point passing unless I'm alive.

"There's no point passing unless I'm alive."不知犬夜叉会如何作出抉择，
戈薇又会怎样，白童子呢（看来其继承了奈落的所有“优点”啊^^）。
