I don't understand. Kyouko thought she was the other girl? Did they both pull the string on the same person?

I believe that what we see in this episode are Kyouko reliving the events of the Amagi girl AFTER Amagi pulled the string. This explains Ren being involved in the scenario from the beginning and the delivery girl being Ai.

Man, I feel like these poor people are being scammed into making a contract to go to hell. I mean, they all knew that lady didn't kill the cat. Yet, they just let Amagi pull the string. These episodes are getting more and more disturbing. It's like dropping an atom bomb with out negotiating to reconcile any differences.

Thank you for clearing it up. Almost forgot the episode started with her pulling the string.

Something about this episode just rubbed me the wrong way. The whole 'reliving' part was confusing and unnecessary.

I'm not sure why anyone thinks Amagi was in the wrong, though. "They could have just talked it out," could apply to Kyouko as well. A simple, "Hey, I have no friends, can I have my cat back?" would have sufficed.

Lol, I bet she regretted sending that woman to hell after realizing the cat was okay, and that the only thing she wanted was the cat back since it meant so much to her. [Too much, but still]

This is one of those scenarios where she really should have contacted the police or sued or something. Maybe then they could have talked about sharing the cat.

Even though the woman didn't actually kill the cat, the fact that she made the girl think she did was enough of a horrible thing.

I can see the fact that if there was an animal I loved that got taken away I would be upset, but I would also be willing to send someone to hell if they left a bag full of it at my door.

Well hmm that was rather interesting oO The ending was kinda freaky when she looked in to the mirror and than with all the cat pictures o_O

Well these things happen if you don't got any friends or family!

Great story though, though I didn't find it correct how the old woman reacted though still not good enough to be sent to hell for!

Mindfucked, this time I've gotta admit that the reasons for banishing the person to hell were ridiculous, lol
Quite a weak episode, though I can't say that I didn't like it ^^

And more focus on Ren = ftw

Actually feel bad for the woman... I know what it's like to feel lonely and have poor communication skills, I've been there. Worst time of my life, very depressing. I'm also a huge cat lover and my cat served as a good comforter =(

So sad that instead of trying to sort things out nicely, at least by sending a note and asking if she could return the cat, the lady started a freak show that lead to her death.

And I found all the photos to be cute. Yes it is a bit creepy but cat clearly didn't mind to have those photos taken. For a lonely person like her that was a real treasure.

This episode was mind-blowing, I could not understand the last scene, where the glasses girl switched place with the ugly lady, until I read this thread. It seem the woman experience's the glasses girl feelings and hate. A misunderstanding, that could of been solve by talking. What made this saddest for me, is that they could of been friends...

Agreed to a certain degree, they deserve some light punishment or at least, some sort of help from experts.

again, she didn't deserve to go to hell, if it was that bad, call the cops or get the fuck out of there simple, not send her to tell, granted that I would be deeply disturbed if I thought she had killed my cat who I loved dearly, I would want her in an institution or a cell..... the reasons behind them getting sent to hell are weak in this series, I'm enjoying it but not for the same reasons I enjoyed the first season.

It was... weird? I can't find any other word (maybe exept idiot). I still don't grasp the idea of neighbour who thinks, taht she is other woman when she, as herself, had had a reason to do all this things. So many questions...

For example, how idiot you have to be to "not think" about talking to other person before doing all this things?

What has Enma Ai thought? It was really worth revenge?

And... I feel sorry for this old woman. She cared about this cat, she loved it, it was her only friend... And because of it she was send to hell.

And (the last one, I promise) have you too noticed that they (I mean Ren, Wanyoudu- I've probably made a mistake here, but you know who I mean) are more IN this happenings? In first season they were only watchnig, now they're interacting.

But I agree- more Ren!!

WHAT THE FUCK?! MIND FUCK!!!

Totally forgot that Amagi pulls the string on the woman at the beginning. I was confused during the punishment scene if that was Amagi or the woman.

I wonder how she felt after pulling the string on a woman who just wanted her cat back.

Didn't like this episode. It required you to think too hard to understand the neighbor's motives.

I actually really liked it! really..
It's depressing to think that all of these problems occurred because the two couldn't properly talk to each other. But there really isn't one to blame for this. Whether or not you felt sympathy for one or the other character, you have to understand the situational irony and the twists of the episodes in this season contributes to the overall message.
I think this season focuses on the fact that pure evil doesn't really exist, and the complexity of the human brain. When ever we feel indanger, we tend to go into fight or flight mode right? Its the same with this season. Most of the people in the episodes get overwhelmed with emotion, convinced of only one way out, just at the end to find another. I guess the producers like to be unpredictable with their endings, and its just so creative! Would you have preffered it to be predictable and simple? Of course not! But I guess the reason why so many people disliked it is because, it feels satisfying to have a character that deserves hell go to hell, and for the person to be even the tiniest of a good person makes it displeasing to recieve a bad sentence.
But, tbh most of the people recieving the curse wouldn't have gone to heaven, and gone to hell anyways :)

Good episode :D I'm a fan of horror and gore so not a lot surprises me but the guts in the bag did. It made my mind instantly go to how I'd feel if that was one of my beloved cats. Also, can anyone fill me in on why Kikuri was accepted in to the group or does that get explained later? All the seasons after the first one were never licensed for retail or streaming outside of Japan and the US so now I'm watching it sub-par quality and what seems to be some iffy translations. What I remember is she was following Onna around in the human world and then suddenly started living with them. All it said was she could travel between worlds.

Nah. The whole episode happened after Amagi pulled the string, it was the neighbor seeing everything through her eyes as her punishment.

Btw in the preview of next episode it doesn't say "Your grievance has been heard" instead Wanyudo just sighs. I'm guessing that means they won't avenge the client.

I am officially confused. Everything because of a .... cat? Of course! Why not?! In S1 we had a stupid moronic little girl sending a vet and herself to hell 'cause her doggo died because the vet didn't care enough about him because the owner wasn't some uber rich client or something like that. 

I swear this Japanese are mofo beyond words. This series pisses me off beyond reason. 

Also this new uber young loli character introduced this season is annoying asf, brings nothing to the table, besides annoyance and enrage ppl off.
Me every time I hear the word "reparations": 🤣🤣🤣
