Have you guys heard of the new chapter of InuYasha?! It hasn't been translated to english yet but here it is!
InuYasha chapter in chinese

Reading some of it (or rather looking at the pictures) it makes me think of the Sessh/Kag stories that have Kagome helping Sango with the kids, Miroku and InuYasha off fighting. Kagome helping Rin.

My shipping heart can't help but hope Sessh/Kag could possibly be canon...

I had heard that a special chapter was to be released in Shonen magazine as a one time off, but not for another two days, so I don't know what that is.

I'm thinking that it is likely fan made. You can tell from a number of the poses and panels that they are direct traces of notable panels from the actual manga - such as Sesshoumaru standing behind Kohaku, the root like creature, and the heads hanging from it (I believe that particular panel to be imitated from the Peach Man arc).

That being said, if it IS fan made, its really well done! And if it isn't, I hope it gets translated soon because it looks awesome! XD

I'm so torn on this, lol. The manga you have showed us would be an amazing start to a new Inuyasha series. However, I do see what See03 is saying. But, it would be quite remarkable if it is fanmade. Like, seriously amazing.

And who's to say this isn't the manga chapter that they are releasing in the Shounen Mangazine? The whole reason for the new chapter is to promote 'Heroes Coming Back' to represent those from the Tohoku Earthquake. So, maybe it is for the magazine and this poster had it?

You never know. Either way, I am super excited to read the manga chapter in two days!

It is in fact the same chapter that is being released. A full translation provided from Patches on the Adinuyasha E-mail group matches the chapter panel by panel perfectly and also matches the description of what the teaser said about the new chapter.

Kagome: "Inuyasha and Miroku-sama are running late."
Sango: "Yes, they told me"

----
4.

Sango: "It was a bit of a troublesome youkai."
Kagome: "Oh?"

Sango: "They told me a landslide destroyed a mound"
Sango: "and that a youkai that had been sealed there had escaped."

Inuyasha: "This is..."

Miroku: "Nothing but bone..."

----
5.

villager: "Many people have been attacked ever since the mound was destroyed."
Miroku: "And yet they're only missing their heads."

Miroku: "...."
Miroku: "It's hunting from nearby."

Inuyasha: "!"

----

villager: "Wha..."

villager: "The heads..."

Inuyasha: "TESSAIGA!"

----
8.

villager: "Ohh, you did it!"

Inuyasha: "Keh!"
Inuyasha: "Nothing to it!"

Miroku: "!"

villager: "Th, thank you ever so much, Houshi-sama."
Inuyasha: "Hey, I was the one who killed it."
Miroku: "Though it looks like it's fled this area."

Miroku: "I'd like you to show me the remains of the destroyed mound."

Inuyasha: "....?"

bandit: "Tch, what a broke-ass village."

bandit: "Hn?!"

bandit: "Eh?!"

10.

Kohaku: "What..."
Kohaku: "happened here...?"

Sesshoumaru: "Ne no Kubi... huh..." (note: means, like "head of roots")

Kohaku: "Sesshoumaru-sama..."

-----
11.

Jaken: "So the owner of that youki was Ne no Kubi, was it?"
Kohaku: "Jaken-sama."

Kohaku: "What is this... Ne no Kubi?"

Sesshoumaru: "A trivially weak youkai."
Sesshoumaru: "And yet..."

Sesshoumaru: "Persistent."

Kaede: "There's no mistake."

Kaede: "This is..."
Kaede: "Kikyou-onee-sama's sacred arrow."

----
12.

Inuyasha: "Kikyou's..."

Kaede: "This Ne no Kubi"
Kaede: "was a youkai Kikyou-onee-sama sealed away shortly before she met you, Inuyasha."

Kaede: "Ne no Kubi was also just like you, Inuyasha,"
Kaede: "in that it sought the Shikon no Tama guarded by Kikyou-onee-sama."
Miroku: "Ah..."
Inuyasha: "This's got nothing to do with me."

Sango: "I wonder what they're talking about."

Sango: "They've been with Kaede-sama ever since they got back..."
twin-white: "Shippou!"
twin-black: "Shippou!"
Shippou: "Cut it out!"

----
13.

Shippou: "Isn't it obvious?"
Shippou: "Isn't it because they're talking about something they don't want you to hear?"

Rin: "Rin was also told to wait at Sango-sama's house."
Kagome: "Rin, you too?"

Kagome: "!"

Rin: "Is it Inuyasha-sama?"
Kagome: "No! Get back!"

----
14.

Ne no Kubi: "Kikyou..."
Ne no Kubi: "Shikon no Tama..."

Kagome: 'Eh...?!'

Ne no Kubi: "Give me the Shikon no Tama!"

----
15.

Sango: "Hiraikotsu!"

Shippou: "Whoa whoa whoa!"
Sango: "Shippou, take care of the children!"

Miroku: "Sango!"
Inuyasha: "Kagome!"

----
16.

Inuyasha: "Dammit!"

Miroku: "So it made it this far..."

Inuyasha: "Kagome, are you all right?"
Kagome: "Y, yeah..."

Kagome: "It..."
Kagome: "Called me 'Kikyou'..."

----
17.

Inuyasha: "Wha..."

Kagome: "Inuyasha!"
Kagome: "What are you hiding from me?!"

Inuyasha: "I'm... I'm not hiding anything from you..."

Inuyasha: "Dammit, Shippou!"

Miroku: "Inuyasha, we can't be bothered by matters other than the fact that it's targeting Kagome-sama."

Sango: "It said to hand over the Shikon no Tama..."
Shippou: "Even though it's been destroyed for quite a while."

Miroku: "It had been sealed away by Kikyou-sama's sacred arrow for so long,"
Miroku: "it probably doesn't know that the Shikon no Tama is already gone."

----
18.

Miroku: "It's called Ne no Kubi. It's a youkai that spreads its roots underground and absorbs nutrients from humans."

Kagome: "Then it's not just me..."
Kagome: "Everyone in this village is in danger!"

Miroku: "That's right."
Miroku: "We have to vanquish it."
Kagome: "Let's go, Inuyasha."
Inuyasha: "R, Right."

----
19.

Inuyasha: 'Isn't she upset...'

Inuyasha: 'Even though I wasn't hiding anything...'

Inuyasha: "!"

----
20.

villager: "Uwaaah!"

Miroku: "Kohaku!"
Kohaku: "Ani-ue!" (note: ... Oh that's riiiight, Miroku is Kohaku's brother-in-law now.)

Kohaku: "Ane-ue!"
Kohaku: "Are you all right?!"

Rin: "Kohaku..."
Sango: "Kohaku!"

----
21.

Sango: "Yes..."
Sango: "For some reason, this place is..."

Shippou: "Um...."
Jaken: "What do you want, Shippou?"

Shippou: "Instead of just standing around, could you maybe help out?"
Jaken: "You fool!"

Jaken: "Sesshoumaru-sama has no concern for what happens to a human village!"

Rin: "Ah, Sesshoumaru-sama!"
Sango: 'So he was protecting us!'

----
22.

Sango: "Kohaku, watch the kids."
Kohaku: "Uh."

Sango: "Let's go, Kirara!"

Sango: "It looks like you're having a hard time."
Miroku: "This thing is multiplying underground."

Inuyasha: "Dammit, there's no end to it!"

Kagome: 'Ne no Kubi...'
Kagome: 'spreads its roots underground...'
Kagome: 'But where are those roots coming from?!'

Kagome: "Put me down, Inuyasha!"
Inuyasha: "Wha..."

----
23.

Inuyasha: "Don't be stupid!"
Inuyasha: "It's after YOU, remember!"

Kagome: "That's just it!"
Kagome: "There has to be a source... a main body the roots are coming from!"

Kagome: "That's..."
Inuyasha: 'Kikyou's sacred arrow?!'

Kaede: "That which I just saw fly must have been the sacred arrow Kikyou-onee-sama used to seal away Ne no Kubi!"
Shippou: "But YOU were the one who shot it, Kaede-obaba."

----
24.

Kaede: 'Ne no Kubi will have to react somehow.'

Kagome: 'It's escaping!'
Inuyasha: "Kagome!"

----
25.

Inuyasha: "Kagome!"

----
26.

Miroku: "That's..."
Sango: "Its main body!?"

----
27.

Ne no Kubi: "Kikyou..."

----
28.

Ne no Kubi: "I'll devour you and the Shikon no Tama!"

----
29.

Kagome: "Let me tell you something."
Kagome: "I'm Kagome!"

Kagome: "And while I'm at it, one more thing..."
Inuyasha: "If you want the Shikon no Tama..."

----
30.

Inuyasha: "It doesn't exist anymore, you idiot!"

----
31.

[arrow go explode!]

----
32.

Shippou: "They did it!"
Shippou: "It's being purified!"

Kaede: 'This means that...'
Kaede: 'Kagome is fine without borrowing Kikyou-onee-sama's power."

Inuyasha: "Phew..."

Inuyasha: "Hey, Kagome!"

----
33.

Kagome: "Whaat, Inuyasha?"
Inuyasha: "You almost got eaten, you know!"

Kagome: "But I knew for sure you'd save me, Inuyasha."

Inuyasha: "Don't just decide that I'm gonna save you, idiot!"

Kagome: "No, I trusted you."
Kagome: "That's why..."

Kagome: "I know that..."
Kagome: "you weren't hiding anything about Kikyou."

Kagome: "Inuyasha...?"

Inuyasha: "So... you were upset..."

Kagome: "I wasn't upset."
Kagome: "I just..."

----
34.

Kagome: "Sit."

Kagome: "I just want you to trust me a little more, too."

Miroku: "This certainly brings back memories."
Sango: "Let's go home. The children are waiting for us."

Inuyasha - End (... again)
