| Description: |
Kirara is a fire Neko-Youkai who is used for transportation by Sango. She has two forms, one of a small kitten, and one of a large cat resembling a saber-toothed tiger. She is very cute and cuddly in her kitten form, but in her big form flames emerge from her feet and tails and she can take on even the most dangerous of demons. Also in her big form, she can fly, which is useful when Kagome wants to return home. She normally carries Sango and Miroku because they can't keep up with InuYasha as he runs.
Kirara is Sango's pet, but her original owner was priestess Midoriko, the creator of the Shikon No Tama.
Kirara appears in episode 24 (along with Sango) as the only one alive in the village Naraku destroyed. From then on, Kirara, along with Sango of course, helps InuYasha, Kagome, Miroku, Shippo, and Sango in their quest for the Shikon Jewel. |
