what i heard it actually has a plot that comes later until ep 14 or 16 the anime is like this, each ep one story, mane plot here is about AI, her past so it has a slight mystery

s2 mane plot is about her companions past how they all became her companions

3th season has its own mane plot to that comes later like this season, but like was said in that explanation, can't say more without spoiling the story, it would give to bi of a hint & ruin the mystery

Edit is start slowly at ep 8, plot i mean

Rather bland episode, aside from Ai and the boat to hell. I really don't see how this has three seasons, but I shall continue on... hopefully it gets better.


at one point each season starts to show mane plot

I can't begin with the brilliance of the series. The bitch really deserved it. And although the main girl goes to hell, it is really happy to see her happy and come to terms with her fate. And I see that the other 2 girls also went to hell. Those bitches deserved it. I hate bullies like those people.


This series looks promising. Also, "Care to give death a try?" . At least Studio DEEN had good standards when it came to concepts like these.

Without change,we end up becoming the very person we hate.


I was dead until the moment I met you. I was a powerless corpse pretending to be alive. Living without power, without the ability to change my course, was bound to lead me to a slow death.

It seems like an interesting idea, but I'm not completely sold yet. This first situation felt a bit tame to warrant bringing about eternal suffering but I'm at least curious to see more. One thing that makes this extremely brutal is how Mayumi gets to keep living. She's going to be constantly reminded of what she's done and the price she's paid (more than 100,000 yen!) until the day she dies.

Additionally, despite that bully being a complete bitch I just don't think death and eternal damnation is a fitting punishment. Which actually brings me to a more interesting perspective and question - how far will they have to go for me to send the person off to hell with a smile.


we humans are weak creatures in a way and if putbin this situation when we are emotional any1 would pull the string cause emotional ppl do not think clearly and this is easier the pulling a trigger on a gun yea u know what's goanna happen but at the moment u don't care cause its not like u get arrested for using supernatural stuff, that's why i believe any1 would do it cause that's what we all are like

re-watchin, main plit is near end, awry ep new story to build up to finalle and to give ppl something to think like what ever its right or wrong and so on and on, but after seeing all i say there is no right nor wrong its just messed up

but i would be 1of her companions, if it were real and felt like i had to use her i would ask her if instead of hell i pay with serving u, i wouldn't mind becoming supernatural being like them

thing is she is also in oain deep inside and she has gone against rules 2 or 3 times to save some1 cause they were innocent person and one was basically ghost, strong ghost with potential to become demon if chosen wrong path

I know bullying is wrong and all, but this could have been solved easily if she just told the truth to the teachers and her mother. Also, who entrusts 100k to a middle school girl anyway? Especially in the viper's nest... I mean all-girls school...


this girl would have said she stole it and also considering jap... its not so easy harder then in other places, what i mean its easier said then done soecially in jap

This episode is so wrong in so many level.. the power is very questionable like the victim based on the name written but what if there is multiple people with same name? Kills all huh?

Also most importantly the color design looks way too bright that feels extremely unfitting and corny dialogue makes it worse. Very bad start.

Changing the theme from Saiki to Jigoku Shoujo which has a great 1st episode and a synopsis. I'm enjoying this, especially the animation, feels old while also nostalgic (brings back memories). I'm interested as to what's going to happen in this. Is Hell Girl an episodic anime because that's what Im seeing from the preview for the 2nd episode.
Come on man,where is that Noragami season 3 masterpiece.We want it, Bones!

This was pretty weak. The whole surreal part especially was very tame and predictable, nothing shocking. Also, it didn't feel like the situation got so bad that it was deserved. Suffer one year or two of middle school or hell for eternity? Or does this anime have different version of hell?

u lack understanding Ero-Camel also u lack of understanding how Jap is with this things, also when u feel this trapped ur almost ready to kill but offer alt like this and they wouldn't hesitate to untie the red string, in jap for ppl rep is ferry important social rules are more strict about it

so its weak cause u lack of understanding, maybe ur life has been 2good or simple or ur just not mature enough or maybe watching psychological stuff has taught me bit human psychology

but again some ppl don't get it unless they have been in similar situation where they feel so trapped that they don't see way out that they see only 2options, that only 2options are kill or suicide

It's clearly obvious that Aya stole the money for in the first place, how can she has that big money for just going to school. I mean it's really not the usual thing to bring that big amount for money.

Honestly, I didn't know what to really expect from the first episode. After watching it I don't know how this will play out as a 26 episode series (and apparently a 2nd season). Regardless, very enjoyable episode. It's sad Mayumi has to go to hell in exchange for vengeance but it makes sense I guess. Excited to see where this goes.

I imagined a swift swing to the head with a metal pipe could have cleared up the bully girl's head. Then again, it could be a terminal case.

This is the most early 2000s thing I've seen since Tokyo Drift and I love it...lol. Might wanna use a VPN to go on that sketchy website there, girl.
Also, is it just me or does Hell Girl seem pretty chill? Like she'd be a cool friend to hang out with. idk

It was alright. Not a big fan of the art, but Hell Girl looks pretty good though.

Episode was meh and I wasn't creeped out at all, but the trippy school scene was cool.
May continue this, but the preview makes it seem like it's episodic. Not a big fan of episodic anime.
@TowardsTheStars agree 100% it wasn’t particularly engaging, gonna drop

As I see some people thinking the bullies was not that cruel to deserve it but I think it change when you think about age of Mayumi and her perspective how old she is at most 14 I guess and she can lose her future because of one girl. She gets blame for being seeing with a older man at night when you think of it it’s was needed to be a man who gets blame but no her future in Denver because of one photo not only that she stills from her family and she can’t tell anything to anyone because she doesn’t have any proof and I really think if you are from certain countries you dont understand the oppression about future Japan one of the countries that has that oppression if you’re not in certain categories you’re nothing in society. When you put all of this in one and that she almost committed a su22ide it’s pretty normal that she is okay with going to hell.

My biggest problem that I kind of interested how people reacted that 3 girls just erased from world and how it’s looking from people who don’t know what happened
