@_@ I see,rather emotion episode indeed

Where's Wally (Waldo),there where books which you had to find the guy amount people/items etc.
So someone must really have hated the book (guess they're observation skills were lacking) so the person accessed the site and sent him to hell...if Ai could find him that is lol

:/ easily recruitment method I guess

:D Great series indeed,i've watched both seasons,tried watching the live action (not sure what happened to those episodes),bought the first manga and waiting for season three.

Theres alot of series I really enjoy,so much so that after watching I try to find all the other series related to them and the manga ^_^

Heh, I tried that link. And got a little freaked out too. I wonder who spent so much time making that website? So DID you enter a name?
I = Katze (Ai No Kusabi)L (Death Note), Ryuichi Sakuma (Gravitation), Kyoya Ootori (Ouran High School Host Club), Hisoka (Yami No Matsuei).

I think that was the best scene for being sent to hell. The skeletons and everything else were pretty cool.

Bit of a suprise that the twin sister got sent to hell instead. The guy was the one who was being horrible, but the twin sister should've felt some guilt...but I guess she is only a little girl. Also the girl choosing to send the sister to hell shows how silly little kids see who is to blame.

Episode 16 was the traveling circus performers (Twin sisters).

I thought Yumi would sent the manager to hell, but nooo. She sent her bastard sister instead. Lol

Her sister was doing things like flattening her tireon the unicycle and the like to get her hurt, in trouble, or just negligence.. like when she quit holding the ball to go over to the manager.

If you ask me, her father deserves to be sent to hell too. Too bad you can't send two or more people using Hell Correspondence.

Hey, could anyone find the lyrics to the abused twin's song? It was so pretty and I want the lyrics. I sorta have them started

little lark
all alone
can not find his way

Through the wheat fields
he will wander
searching all the day

Oh mother
please come find me
He calls to the sky

Found wheat
restling round him
is the only _____

He's forgotten
how to find his way
back to the nest.

Little lark
all alone now
in the fields he rests.

Through the dark
new ___(Fox???) howling
In the moon light

After sun set
all that's left is
The __(Full???)_________ twilight

It's the only pieces I could make put. I will look at it more later.
the blanks are where I don't know what words to fill in.

Thanks

Meh, I think the twin deserved it.
Pranking your sister for favoritism is understandable albeit mean.
But letting it carry on to the point of resulting in her abuse..

Yeah the manager was at fault but Yumi knew things wudnt have been that way
if not for her sister sabotaging her every step of the way till he hated her.

this was probably one of my favorite episodes so far. i felt terrible for the twin that got locked away. i just don't understand how that man could love one of them so much and completely hate the other. still i couldn't believe that the other twin could possibly ruin her sister's life!! and her TWIN sister nevertheless! D: i also feel awfully bad for little shagumi (?) she's just a little kid and has to see all these terrible visions. i have to say i really hope that more freaky hell visions continue because they're really what i like best about this series to begin with!

okay yeah maybe the twin did deserve to get sent to hell, but so did the manager!!! But what baffles me is.... after its all done, the manager treats the abused girl like her twin.. and she's happily smiling at him... personally if i got shoved in a dark room, getting whipped by dad or whatever, i certainly wouldn't be acting like that D: but hey thats just me!

Still an intresting episode though, thats 2 in a row where i've enjoyed it and not wanted to drop YES!!! Keep it joing Jigoku, i have faith!!!!

If she cursed the guy, her sister would still be around to manipulate her.
If she cursed her sister, she would become the replacement (and a mandatory one, at that. as far as their customers knew, she didn't have a twin. if word got out that they were twins and that one of them disappeared, it wouldn't be good for their business) and she wouldn't have to put up with her sister.

It was actually a rather logical choice (not considering the fact that she damned herself to hell for eternity), and I actually was predicting that would happen.

As for this episode, the ending part where the sister got dragged to hell seemed a bit... different. It sorta felt like Ai was taking it a bit personally, and gave her "special" torture treatment.

Plot twist again!

I was mad at the headmaster of the circus, but her little twin sister was horrible and I might even say, worst! She sabotaged her own sister (flesh and blood)! The victim sister was having flashbacks of her little sister evil deeds and she almost lost her mind, because of it...

Was hoping the sister repent, but oh well, children are monster's sometime.

Finally putting these facts together, it seem Emma is sending those messages to the girl/father, to stop her from getting more souls.

Even mother teresa believes Emma is more of a saint than her!

I just knew it had to be the sister and not the father when I saw her flash backs. the torture she had till sent to hell was cool and I thought a child would be afraid and repent but guess not amazing episode again.

I'm not sure who should be sent to hell, the father or the twin.

Shibata is really getting on my nerves. What sort of person would feel any sympathy for a person who just WHIPPED a girl, and try to save him? Save your sympathy for those who deserve it. Jeez. That father deserves hell. And Shibata, trying to mess with such a big force in the world it seems. Does he think he is bigger than hell? Such a big ego.

I was honestly hoping this would be the episode where we saw what would happen if the person getting sent to hell confessed. It almost looked like she was about to for a second there...but of course she didn't >_>.

The fact that the manager just got away with what he did really annoyed me, its even worse since nobody really seemed to care in the end. Why would the girl who got beat and caged up like an animal just stay with him and act like nothing happened? Why wouldn't Shibata try to expose the guy or at least call the police after seeing what he did to her? I mean there was plenty of evidence all over her body to get him locked up...

Meh :/

Why did Yumi kill her twin sister when she could have killed the ringmaster? Cause it would make for a great plot twist that's why! I bet no one was expecting that! Hajime did some really derpy stuff this episode. Lemme grab a hold of Yuki so I look like a fucking child molester! I gotta give this episode at least a 4/5 cause they made the death scene this episode fucking epic.

Maybe he didn't know that the ringmaster whipped the girl. If he did though I would say that he's officially insane.

I was so happy to see a circus episode, was kind of expecting it :)
In my opinion, Yumi chose the right person, because if she sent the chef, who would be left for her? The cause of her problems (her twin sister) still would be there and I don't think the other people at the circus would take care. Just think about the way they treated each other... That's at least what I think...
Ai showing something like empathy was also pretty new here, which I liked. I am looking forward to finding out about her past, so I can be able to understand why all of this happens.
This and the second episode are my favorites so far ^^

How the did the Twin deserve to go to hell when she was just acting like a spoiled kid? The only reason she even became that way was because the headmaster gave her all the attention while ignoring the sister. Not to mention that the POS whipped the kid and kept her in a dark room like an animal.

Now she's all happy in the end because she's getting all the attention from this bastard. How is that any different from what the one that got sent to hell?

I feel like this episode was by far the best. I was so emotionall connected its crazy i really felt sad for the girl. But to think she would send her TWIN sister to hell rather than an asshole father wow. Well as it turned out her sister was a spoiled bitch but isnt it theirs fathers fault?
What I didnt understand tho is why did father just accept the fact the girl dissappeared through a mirror? He didnt even try to call the detectives or something.

Can i also talk a bit about how much greater the hell was in this episode? Those skeleton arms, the rope with lava below it. Great. Also felt like Ai was much more emotionally involved with the girl. Could it be that she knows how that girl felt? And probably the reason that girl got hell is because of how her twin sister suffered and how Ai was angry at her?
How did Hone Anna got into the box tho? did the girl trick her? Also like the biggest question is how Ren and her got into the crew so fast lol. IT looked like everyone knew them quite a bit there kinda doesnt make sense...

Also its the only episode(in this anime) where i actually teared up so good job Jigoku shoujo.
