Classic manga which is great for picking up used

If you are ever visiting japan, make sure to take a trip to the local book-off or other used book store, to pick up some old manga. I bought 6 volumes of this for 100 yen each, easily my most worthwhile purchase yet.

The story is a lot darker and bloodier than I expected, but it still has the signature Rumiko Takahashi charm. I think this is a great foray for a first fantasy manga, as the medieval/paranormal terms are not too difficult.

The characters, their relationships with each other, and how they mature over the course of the series are what really seals the deal though. The ensemble cast is really enjoyable, and Kagome (a 15 year old suddenly transported to the Sengoku period, who now has to travel around with a half-demon) is an
