 Accelerated Healing: 

Inuyasha is capable of rapid recovery from even the

most grievous of injuries (i.e., impalement) and can do so without any visible
scarring. When Tōtōsai yanked out one of Inuyasha's fangs to repair the
Tessaiga, he mentioned that Inuyasha would grow a replacement canine in
just half a day. Regardless, the extent of his healing abilities is not
unconditional, and it has been implied he could not regenerate lost limbs.
 Enhanced Senses: While not quite as sensitive as those of Tōga and
Sesshōmaru, Inuyasha's senses of smell and hearing are nonetheless
remarkably acute. He is able to hear what people were whispering from great
distances away; as was the case when, while perched on a tree, he
overheard Akitoki Hōjō hiding in a bush, quietly praising Kagome under his
breath. Likewise, his sense of smell is extremely keen; he could smell hints of
blood from kilometers away and could detect the presence of people by smell
long before they could be seen. His sense of smell was also his method of
detecting yōki and thus was used in locating the Kaze no Kizu, the striking
point of the Bakuryūha and yōketsu auras, and, once, sniffing out the path of
the outside world to pierce Sesshōmaru's Meidō Zangetsuha. He could catch a
whiff of Naraku's power from many miles away as soon as he let down his
barrier with at least as much accuracy as Kōga, despite the latter being a full
yōkai.


Inuyasha's claws.
Claws: Inuyasha has sharp, blade-like claws, and he can use them to easily
slice ordinary foes to ribbons. Normally, he uses these claws in his Sankon
Tessō (散魂鉄爪; "Claws of Exorcism" or "Claws of Steel" in VIZ manga; "Iron
Reaver Soul Stealer" in the English dub) attack. His full-powered Sankon Tessō
is at least strong enough to break steel frames and destroy numerous roof
tiles.[29]

 Blood Solidification: By using his demonic power, Inuyasha can harden his
own blood and throw them like bladed projectiles in an attack he refers to
as Hijin Kessō (飛刃血爪 lit. Flying Blade Blood Claws; VIZ, "Claws of Blood" or
"Daggers of Blood"; "Blades of Blood" in the English dub). While he typically
used blood from an already open wound, Inuyasha could draw the necessary
blood to use the attack by digging his nails into his palms. He would often use
this tactic as a surprise counterattack after being wounded when his
opponents would assume he was weakened by his wounds and lower their
guard.[34]
 Longevity: Inuyasha's mixed heritage and him being the son of a powerful
daiyōkai, afforded him supernatural longevity. Inuyasha noticeably aged
 slower than normal humans; he was over 150 years old at the time of his
sealing but looked to be the physical equivalent of a 15-year-old human.
 Limited Time Travel: By jumping down the Bone-Eater's Well, Inuyasha could
travel back and forth five hundred years to and from the future. Inuyasha has
repeatedly traveled to Kagome's time without the aid of a Sacred Jewel Shard.
Others, besides Kagome and Inuyasha, were unable to travel through the well,
as shown when Shippō attempted to go through the well but failed, and
when Sōta attempted to go down the well to call Inuyasha for help during the
attack of the Noh Mask but was unable to get through either.
 Transformation (変化, へんげ, "Henge"): Due to his half-demon heritage,
Inuyasha transforms against his will when certain conditions are met. Thus
this attribute can fluctuate between strength and weakness, making it an
unreliable ability. Most notably, during the night of the new moon, he is
temporarily rendered human for the duration of the event. In another case,
Inuyasha transforms into a full-fledged demon when his life is in mortal
danger. He is also susceptible to being corrupted by an impure Sacred Jewel,
turning into a savage demon. This was first seen when he and his friends were
trapped in the Stone Ogre's belly, Inuyasha used a shard of the Sacred Jewel
to strengthen Tessaiga's power, an effort which backfired when the impure
powers of the shard flowed through Tessaiga, causing Inuyasha to transform.
After Kagome purified the shard, Inuyasha regressed into a more tamed
version of his yōkai form. His yōki increased exponentially, allowing him to
enhance the Tessaiga's Kongōsōha's barrier-piercing effect with an intensity
far superior to its previous uses, as well as being able to combine the Kaze no
Kizu with the Kongōsōha. After the shard was removed from Tessaiga,
Inuyasha reverted to his hanyō self.[35] He entered this state a second time
while inside Naraku, having been corrupted into his yōkai form by the
presence of the black Shikon no Tama and possessed by Magatsuhi, though he
entered the purified form after smelling Kagome's blood, freeing himself from
Magatsuhi's control. After Magatsuhi's demise, Kagome's spiritual powers
returned him to his hanyō state.[36]
 Flight: Inuyasha use the power of flight up in the sky, all the way to the manor
of his stepmother's to meet Sesshōmaru to stop the Grim Comet.
 Spiritual Sight: Like every members of the Dog-Demon Clan, Inuyasha has
the unique ability to see the spirit of the Windmill of Time, Akuru.
Abilities
 Experienced Combatant: Due to being born a hanyō in a time of great strife
between humans and demons, Inuyasha was very experienced in unarmed
combat. However, unlike the technical skills displayed by Sesshōmaru,
Inuyasha generally relied more on brute force than any type of martial arts. His
conventional combat strategy was centered around attacking his opponents
quickly and beating them into submission, leaving him at a disadvantage when
faced with more sophisticated combatants.
 Adept Swordsman: After obtaining Tessaiga as his signature weapon,
Inuyasha used it as his main form of combat. Since Inuyasha had never used a
sword before, and because he often relied solely on Tessaiga's demonic
powers, skilled swordsmen normally pointed out how reckless he was when
fighting them, using his lack of experience to their benefit. Sesshōmaru
remarked early on that the Tessaiga was no different than a wooden club in
Inuyasha's hands. However, as he continued to face great challenges from
 skilled opponents, Inuyasha developed his swordsmanship with Tessaiga to
the point of being able to contend against Sesshōmaru in battle, though he
still remained inferior in overall skill.
 Minor Medicinal Knowledge: Inuyasha had limited knowl
