Kagome Higurashi
Kagome is a girl who gets pulled into a crazy adventure because her grandpa is right about the centipede demon. She ends up fighting it, getting hurt, and realizing she has some weird magic inside her body.
'That centipede looked like it had a grudge against my family.'
'I'm not a hero, but I'm not a victim either.'
'I'd rather be in school than fighting a giant centipede.'
