#45 Big O
Plot
Forty years prior to the events of the series, disaster struck. The world was turned into a vast desert wasteland and the survivors were left without memories. The story takes place in Paradigm City, a corporate police state run by the Paradigm Corporation. The town is recognized for its geodesic domes, giant structures that house the richer citizens and segregate the poor.
The Big O deals with the nature of memories. A memory is a record stored in the brain of an organism, but in Paradigm City memories can mean much more.[4] "Memories" (メモリー Memorī?) embody the lost knowledge of its residents, and can take the form of records from before the Event, forgotten artifacts from the previous era, or manifest themselves as recollection, hallucinations, and recurring dreams.
The first half of the series is episodic. Each Act revolves around different citizens of Paradigm dealing with the resurgence of lost Memories and how they manage to go on living without knowledge of what did or did not happen. The final episodes introduce elements that come into play during season two like the existence of people outside of Paradigm City, the nature of the Cataclysm that destroyed the world and the "Power of God wielded by the hand of man."
The second season takes an arc-based approach. Instead of self-contained stories like in season one, season two features a continuous storyline. The second season makesAlex Rosewater, CEO of the Paradigm Corporation, a direct antagonist to The Negotiator and introduces The Union, agents of a foreign power working within Paradigm.

#44 Inuyasha
Plot
The story begins in Tokyo, Japan, on the fifteenth birthday of a girl named Kagome Higurashi, who lives on the grounds of her family's hereditary Shinto shrine with her mother, grandfather and little brother Sota. When she goes into the well house to retrieve her cat Buyo, a centipede demon bursts out of the enshrined Bone Eater's Well (骨喰いの井戸 Honekui no Ido?) and drags the girl into the well. Instead of hitting the bottom of the well, however, Kagome ends up 500 years in the past (Meio 5/ 1496 A.D) during Japan's Sengoku period. The centipede demon is revealed to have been after a magical jewel known as the Shikon Jewel (四魂の玉Shikon no Tama?, Jewel of the Four Souls) before being slain by a priestess named Kikyo. Revived by the Shikon Jewel's power in the present time, mistaking her for Kikyo, the demon attempts to kill Kagome to gain the jewel. Kagome finds a young man pinned by a sacred arrow on a tree and, in a moment of desperation, frees him to defeat the centipede demon after she removed the Shikon Jewel from Kagome's body.
The youth is revealed by the nearby villagers to be Inuyasha, an Inugami half-demon who was sealed by a dying Kikyo fifty years ago after being apparently betrayed by her and attempting to take the Shikon Jewel to become a full demon. Furthermore, revealed to be the priestess reincarnated, Kagome unknowingly thwarted Kikyo's death wish to take the Shikon Jewel away for would be thieves back before it was accidently shattered into numerous shards that disperse across Japan and fall into the hands of those who gain the individual shards' power. After Inuyasha gains his father's sword Tetsusaiga, after being subdued with a special necklace to keep him in line, he aids Kagome in collecting the shards and dealing with the threats they cause. The two are joined in their quest by Shippo while dealing with third parties groups like Inuyasha's older brother Sesshomaru and the partially revived Kikyo, whose own version of what happened years ago brings the events into question. While joined Miroku, a perverted monk whose bloodline is cursed, Inuyasha and Kagome learn that truth that the initial conflict between Inuyasha and Kikyo, revealed to originally be lovers, was caused a devious half-demon named Naraku. Revealed to be born from the soul of a evil man name Onigumo inhabiting a body created by countless demons as part of a pact gone array, having also placed the curse on Miroku's family, the evolving Naraku is after the Shikon Jewel shards for his own ends. Inuyasha's group is soon joined after by Sango, a demon-slayer whose clan was killed when her younger brother Kohaku fell under Naraku's control. Overtime, with Inuyasha enhancing Tetsusaiga while contending with Naraku's minion incarnations like Kagura and the reanimated Band of Seven, Inuyasha's team is allied by Sesshomaru, Kikyo after learning that Naraku was the one who killed, and a wolf demon named Koga who wants to avenge his comrades while flirting with Kagome.
While Naraku momentarily removed his heart in the form of the Infant, who later attempts to overthrow Naraku through his vessel Moryomaru, Kohaku regains his freewill and memories as he attempts to help out of guilt for indirectly killing his father. During that time, Seeshomaru settles things with Inuyasha to enable his brother to perfect Tetsusaiga to its optimal abilities. Eventually, after Koga is forced to stand on the sidelines while Kikyo posthumously used the last of her power to give Kohaku a second chance at life, Naraku finally reassembles the Shikon Jewel. Although Inuyasha and his allies defeat him, realizing his true desire is for Kikyo's love despite his hatred towards her and that it can never be granted, Naraku uses his wish to bring himself and Kagome into the Shikon Jewel. But Naraku's wish is revealed to be the desire of Magatsuhi, an ancient demon who was sealed in the heart of the priestess Midoriko before it became the Shikon Jewel. Having aided Naraku in a temporary body prior to his defeat, Magatsuhi intended to have Kagome make a selfish wish so she and Naraku would be trapped in conflict while he can regain his physical form. But with Inuyasha by her side, Kagome wishes for the jewel to disappear, which destroys Magatsuhi while allowing Midoriko and Naraku to finally be at peace. But the action causes Kagome to return to her time with the Well sealed, causing her and Inuyasha to lose contact for three years.
In that time, the Sengoku period changes drastically: Sango and Miroku marry and have three children together; Kohaku (Sango's last remaining family member) resumes his journey to become a strong demon slayer; Koga becomes leader of the wolf demons and marries Ayame; and Shippo attains the seventh rank as a fox demon. Back in the present, Kagome graduates from high school at the age of eighteen, before she finally manages to get the Bone-Eater's Well in her backyard to work again. With approval from her mother, Kagome returns to the Sengoku period, where she stays with Inuyasha and becomes his wife for the rest of her life.
