The second season of the anime series Inuyasha aired in Japan on ytv from May 28, 2001, through December 10, 2001. Based on the manga series of the same title by Rumiko Takahashi, the anime was produced by Sunrise. The series continues a half demon Inuyasha's and a high school girl Kagome Higurashi's journey, alongside their friends Shippo, Miroku and Sango to obtain the fragments of the shattered Jewel of Four Souls, a powerful jewel that had been hidden inside Kagome's body, and keep the shards from being used for evil.
The anime is licensed for release in North America by Viz Media. The English dub of the first season was broadcast on Cartoon Network as part of its Adult Swim programming block from January 22, 2003, through May 1, 2004.
The opening themes for this season were "Change the World" by V6 for episodes 28-33, and "I Am" by hitomi for episodes 34-54. Networks and streaming services in the United States typically use an instrumental opening theme in place of "Change the World" due to licensing issues. The ending themes were "Fukai Mori" (深い森, "Deep Forest") by Do As Infinity for episodes 28-41 and "Dearest" by Ayumi Hamasaki for episodes 42-54.
