InuYasha gets a new attack that makes it possible for him to kill Naraku. In Inuyasha, while the romances are definitely of the Will They or Won't They? variety, the true culprit is the main plot of killing Naraku.This turned out to be literally true - in the final arc it was revealed that the Ultimate Force was deliberately keeping them from getting too close, and the penultimate volume is about K1 and Bell convincing her father Tyr to give his permission for their relationship to progress. Whether it be some godly threat to the heavens and Earth, or one of Belldandy's fellow gods deciding to keep Keiichi away from her, it seemed like the universe just didn't want them to be together.

Most people don't snap out of their depression, fix their marriage, or overcome serious character flaws after going on a single adventure. Yo-Yo Plot Points can be justified if they deal with heavier plot points.
