Personality Sango is a bit emotional, but she is also fiercely protective of those she cares about. She learned to fight while she was growing up, and was one of the best warriors in her village. Sango has a thing for Miroku, which develops into its own story as time goes by.

First Appearance Episode 35 - Sango's story starts in a village of Youki (demon) exterminators. Her village was the place where the Shikon Jewel was created. She and her brother, Kohaku, are young exterminators. The group is told that there is a demon that needs to be exterminated in a nearby village, and they set out to complete the job. This is Kohaku's first real mission. After they arrive, Naraku steps in and causes the brother and sister to fight each other. While all of the warriors are gone, the village is destroyed by Naraku's minions.

Eventually she joins the quest for revenge against Naraku and becomes good friends with the group members. Sango never quite forgets her little brother Kohaku, and she wants to see Naraku destroyed as badly as Inuyasha and Miroku.
She has a sidekick of sorts, a quiet cat demon named Kiara. Kiara is normally very cute and small, but can transform into a fierce fire-spitting animal whenever it wants. Big-Kiara can fly so it is handy for transportation, but oddly enough is the only demon I've seen that doesn't talk. Inuyasha spent a few episodes perfecting his Kaze no Kizu (wound of the wind attack - only works on demons) with Kiara, so it is sure that it is a youki.
