Yeah, and as far as I thought; the girl in the hospital was Enma Ai, but I'm mistaken. It was the detective's younger sister. Since technology is evolving, Enma Ai (Former Jigoku Shoujo) is using the net. The new Jigoku Shoujo is using mobile cell phone. You don't need ISP to revenge your hatred. You just need 1 SMS. LOL! ^___^

I'm excited bout the 3rd season. What's gonna happen?

Overall, I love this 2nd season. It really evolves and upgrades it animation and story style. It is more lovable than the 1st season. You gotta love this. I'm looking forward to the next season. This is going to be my favorite.

Indeed,besides they couldn't end the series like that since they heard how upset they were about the first season.Clearly could not have just stopped there with several questions unanswered.

:? If I recall correctly,people have recieved responses from Ai on there mobiles aswell.

My guess is that they plan to explain the work in more detail now that Ai isn't there,she may try to have a come back.Also the Shibata family still has to be concluded much like Ai's grandmother.

I agree that the second season was way more refreshing than the repetitive first season, so hopefully the third season will be even better!

This last eps of the second season effectively set the scene for the third season. I can't be sure what happened to Enma Ai at the end, and what about Kikuri's role? Will she be the next Hell Girl?

Golly, that was pretty sweet action there for the ending.

Everyone is like, "Let's enjoy life on earth for while."
"Lol lady, life on earth is hell FTW."

Well maybe not exactly like that. But the ending was pretty win.

Just when you thought Kikuri couldn't get any creepier.
I cried through most of this stupid episode. ;-;
Seeing Ai so weak and getting beaten up was too much.
I can't wait for the next season, hopefully it's as upbeat at this one was!
ZOMG! Now, download Hell Hotline on your cellphone! xD Can you imagine the commercials for that?

Yeah, I also wondered a lot about Kikuri's role. On the previous episode, I thought she was just a means for the spider to find out what's happening, but with her taking Ai (the cherry??) in that boat... I'm not sure anymore.

Hope the next season will be just as good!

I didn't realize the spider was gone until the last ep, and then a strange girl appeared...

Ai did break the rule by attacking people because of her rage in the first season, how come she could get away with that but not this time?

The moment the mob saw Ai. i teared up

The moment the guy hit Ai. I gasped and started crying a river

The moment her assistants looked and couldnt do anything. I continued

damn, so much tears i couldn't even appreciate Takuma's happy ending!! and exactly what happened to the detectives daughter?

So Glad some people are almost on the same page as me! i just started watching Jigoku Shoujo last week, i kept thinking, everyone probably already knows whatll happen, if i say im excited they might spoil it for me :P ^^

I cant help myself, but first season touched me more, coz those last episodes showed ai´s life...and that was really sad... I like second season as well, but I am little bit confused about the end... The souls of her beloved was release to heaven? Coz it looks like she broke the rules when she took the boat with takuma back... so it seems that they were took by hell...

but i really love her character... she is really tragic woman- Enma Ai... but she is great...

That was one hell of an ending.. So sad to see them beating up Enma :( I hate it they got away with it :(

I don't hope the girl who got the sms is a friend of the sister of the detective cauz then Takuma would probably be sent to hell o.O I would really hate that, after all he has been through :O I was so happy when I saw him with his father :)

Wow, simply... wow.

I liked how the first season hit us with a personal level between Enma Ai's past and then Tsugumi's decision with Hajime that we had been following all along.

I liked how this season took a step much further, jumping into the pasts of Ren, Wanyuudou, and Hone Onna, and having more of their equal involvement altogether.

And then I like how they connected, however briefly with Hajime and Tsugumi, but also with the tradition of how there will always be someone wanting revenge against someone. Like this series constantly preaches, "Humans don't change."

I'm not real big on episodic series. They're okay and I prefer them in moderation. But I couldn't help but be compelled by this - way more so than the first season. I looked forward more and more and just couldn't stop watching. I was glued.

Since the addictiveness factor is also big for me on this, and a huge, outstanding ending that was tragic and scared the hell out of me - I kept wincing for Ai as she so steadily walked around, frail as a doll, and then for the people to beat on her like she was reliving her hellish experience all over again was just horrifying.

I feel a bit unsettled by the ending, like I feel I have a lot of answers but even more questions, like what will happen to Ai's helpers, WTF Kikuri, the detective's sister's condition, Hajime and Tsugumi, and most importantly, Ai herself.

But I still think I liked this significantly more than the first season. It really took a step above and beyond of what I was expecting, which is always great news. So I look forward to the third season. <3

So we see that the detective's sister managed to survive, but the bigger question is...does she still have to go to hell even though the *contract* was pretty much canceled?

Eh I watched the 3rd season first, now I understand it more clearly after watching this. Time for 1st season..;o

These lasts episodes makes me cringe. It's kind of sad that's how people are pretty much are. Give something like this to the US and everyone will be gone by the end of the year.

7.5/10 I liked this ending more than the 3rd season but eh.

The way I saw it was after the Hell Boss possessed (by subjecting himself into her body) Kikuri and told the servants to watch over her, you saw Kikuri cry for a brief moment on top of the pole. It makes me think that all her scheming and messing with Hell Girl was to push her to that moment where she finally gave in to her real emotions. Therefore, she could finally be released of her eternal torture as Hell Girl.

Wow what an awesome final episode! And what an ending, wouldn't expect that Ai would turn around the boat, and wtf those where really horrible people who in their right mind would even dare to touch Hell Girl! Her disappearance was quite sad and I hope all those who hit her will really be thrown in the darkest pits of HELL!

And wow Kikuri that cried that was something unexpected, but did Ai really re-incarnated in to a cherry oO? Even that with the spider and the 3 eye scene that was so fucking creepy...

The ending with all the servants from Ai departing on the road would be really a great ending! And that Takuma was back with his father with a Big Smile was nice, and than the Text the by going girl gets just epic! Let's get going to the third season!

Either way loved this Second Season allot better than the first even though less of an on going story line the separated ones where very good on their own!

Amazing finale, I felt so sad when Ai was getting beaten up like that. I'm glad Ai decided to save Takumi though, I'm guessing he reminded her a lot of herself.

Looks like Hotaru lived, and Takuma's dad is all better now. At least Takuma got a happy ending.

I've never been so sad over a "happy" ending.. :´( Ai and the people dear to her got finally into rest and Takuma & co. lived happily ever after, but what happened is just too sad... =(
I don't want Ai to disappeaaar T.T It must have been so horrible to watch for Wanyuudou, Ren and Hone Onna too... :( I'd have wanted to see the guys suffer who beat up Ai...
Better than first season, 10/10

That was a really nice episode, good to see a more carrying Ai. Too bad she still can't catch a break. Those freaks will surely go to the darkest hole of the hell.

Because this is different. She was supposed to take him to hell, but didn't do it and instead turned the boat around and brought him back.

how can everybody be pleased that Enma got treated like that, and the shitty mob just went away without nothing being done D: the only good thing was the whole spider and Kikuri I totally forgot about the spider *slaps forehead* I think this was on par with the first season maybe would have been better but the last couple episodes enraged me D:

"...Their whereabouts unknown..." I'm pretty sure they're in hell right about now at least i hope so. This season showed a more chaotic side to this show which made it more realistic/appealing. Second season over all 9/10 for me. The 1/10 was the redundancy of the episodes but yeah the story is a masterpiece.

Watching this episode makes me realize how much I detest the mob mentality. It was cruel what they did to Takuma and Ai.
Personally I feel that this season is better than season 1, it was more intense and had a wider variety of themes.

Unexpected ending for me, it kinda bothers me....but in a good way. If that makes any sense. It was much better than the first season.Definitely makes you want to jump right into the next, which is always a good thing and something I felt the first season lacked for me.
