Inuyasha ⁰¹

The story follows Kagome Higurashi (Aome in the Latin American dub), a teenager from modern-day Tokyo who is pulled through a mystical well inside her family's shrine. She ends up traveling back in time to Japan's Sengoku period, a feudal era filled with demons and magic.
There, she frees Inuyasha, a young half-demon (hanyō) and half-human boy who had been sealed to a sacred tree by the priestess Kikyō 50 years earlier. After the powerful Shikon Jewel (the Jewel of Four Souls) is accidentally shattered, its fragments are scattered across the land. Kagome and Inuyasha must join forces to recover the fragments before they fall into the hands of evil beings, especially the fearsome demon Naraku.
