* TimeStandsStill: The method by which Kaguya causes [[TheNightThatNeverEnds The Night That Never Ends]]. Miroku, Sango, Shippo, Kirara, and Kohaku are protected from the effect by bandages from Kagome's time displaced first-aid kit, while Inuyasha is protected by [[ChekhovsGun the photo locket Kagome gave him earlier in the film.]]

No such trope.


* WreckedWeapons: For the first time in the series, Miroku's staff actually breaks in half during the fight against Kaguya. It's returned back to normal once the nightmare is over.

* AttackReflector: Kaguya can conjure a black orb to absorb any attack and shoot it back out at her enemies.



* BodyHorror: [[spoiler: Naraku, bursting out of Kohaku's back as an ever-expanding, pulsating mass of tumorous bloated flesh and spider legs.]]



* CallBack: Naraku's form in this movie is the same he used in his battle against Sesshomaru.
* ChekhovsGun: During the battle against Naraku, Sango ties Miroku's staff to her Hiraikotsu to deliver a more powerful attack combining the impact of her weapon with the staff's demon-repelling skills. Near the end, Kagome uses half of Miroku's staff as an impromptu arrow to pin the Celestial Robe to Kaguya's mirror.
* ConspicuousCGI: Kaguya's cloud form.



* ElementalPowers: Each of the five artifacts needed to unseal Kaguya is bound to one of the Five Classical Chinese Elements, with a respective color: The Dragon's Neck Orb is Metal (Yellow), the Fire Rat Robe is Fire (Red), the Jewelled Branch of Horai is Wood (Green), the Swallow's cowrie is Water (Blue) and the Buddha's Stone Bowl is Earth (Teal).



* GiantSpider: Naraku transform into an humongous spider demon with an ogre's head to fight the group in the beginning. After having his legs chopped and his back pierced, the real form of Naraku bursts forth from the abdomen to fight.
* GodGuise: Kagura eventually reveals that "Kaguya" is actually nothing more than a powerful, body-hitchiking demon who devoured the original Kaguya and took over her immortality and powers.



* IdenticalStranger: The six heads of the beast Kaguya summons to defend the illusion of her castle resemble Ryūkotsusei almost exactly, save for the body color, and the lack of a face in their foreheads.

* MuggingTheMonster: The bandits threatening Akitoki Hojo make the mistake of harassing Inuyasha, who was just passing by. They're soundly trashed.
* NotQuiteDead: After being seemingly destroyed by Inuyasha's Bakuryuha-empowered Wind Scar, Kaguya returns as an ominous dark cloud and tries to absorb Kagome before being finished off for good by Miroku.
* OurOrcsAreDifferent: At one point Kohaku is chased by a gang of humanoid pig-like Youkai brandishing variegated weaponry and threatening to eat him, stunningly similar to "orcs" as sometimes depicted in eastern RPG.



* SealedEvilInACan: Princess Kaguya, like Menomaru and Hyoga from the previous film. This time, she instructs Kagura and Kanna to collect the artifacts required to release her, in exchange for granting them their wishes.

The film ends with, amazingly enough, Inuyasha and co. finally killing Naraku, a belief enforced by the disappearance of Miroku's Wind Tunnel. Shortly afterwards, the group splits up, only to be brought back together when the demoness Kaguya steps up to the plate.
