Kagome in past means...? *SPOILERS FOR FINALE*


Having just watched "The Final Act" ending and seeing that Kagome decides to stay in the past with Inuyasha, it made me wonder about something. Since it says she got married to Inuyasha, I'm going to go ahead and assume that she bears him at least 1 child before dying (she is still mortal, after all). Does that mean she just created the bloodline that will lead to her own birth?

Kagome's own family might be, in fact, descended from a child born of herself and Inuyasha.

Or, alternatively, there is someone descended from the marriage of Inuyasha and Kagome running around modern Japan, right? (assuming the bloodline didn't die out at some point?)

And this is why time travel makes my head hurt.

Thoughts, discussion, corrections, all welcome!

This is major Back to The Future, butterfly effect, and Paradox kind of stuff here. Don't know if It can be handled or even fully answered.

The only thing I can think of is somehow Kogome being an reincarnation of Kikyo means something somehow.

It's possible, but there's not really anything in the series to indicate that Kagome's bloodline carried back into the present in any significant way. Even if she and Inuyasha did have children, enough generations have passed between the Sengoku Era and the present that it wouldn't really make much of a difference to anything. At most it would be a point of curiosity.

...No. Why would you think so?
