Sorry people, but this is just a response to my reviews. Kagome IS leaving, and she's leaving for a year. Or more. She will not bring Inu-Yasha with her. But at the moment, she has no intention of ever going back to the feudal era, even when she returns home. That all could change. You never know. I'm not going to get rid of Hojo. He treats Kagome right, and he's a nice guy. I'm trying to make him less- than- perfect for you Hojo-haters out there. Just be patient. You never know what might happen.
