The End of the Anime but not the Manga
This is the Final Volume in the Inuyasha anime series containing episides:
164 - Possessed by a Parasite: Shippo, Our Worst Enemy!
165 - The Ultimate Key to Defeating Naraku
166, 167 - The Bond Between Them, Use the Sacred Jewel Shard!(I and II)
This is not the 'end' of Inuyasha. The ending of the anime series coincides with Volume 36 of the manga (roughly, chapter 356) and continues the story until the last manga volume 56.
The End is not the "End"
There is one tricky thing about watching Japanese anime versus readingthe original manga that inspired it. Sometimes the two are not quite the same due to the fitting of the story to the medium. If you've only experienced the American incarnations of either, you might be surprised at the differences between the Japanese and Americanized versions.
Thus,when the last episode aired here, many have been distressed that the story seems to end unresolved. The anime loosely follows the manga for about the first 370 some-odd chapters, but what then? I strongly recommend reading the manga as it is still going on and promises some really amazing surprises as well as some truly heartwrenching moments. I too, was alarmed when the series seemed to cut off without resolving some sticky issues, BUT, it's much easier to handle if you know that Takahashi has not yet reached the end of her epic series and in Japan, the number of published chapters has just passed 500. Enjoy the series...
This is not the end
this is not the end of the animee seires they are just taking a break so that more of the manga can be witten. that is how it works.
