Thats some awesome development. This episode is alone can be considered the best since its the firs time we see clear representation of Ai's emotions She doesnt care what will happen to her if she gets to hell or not she totally acts on her emotions and thats really cool to see.
So about time Hajime decided to stop pursuing Ai but because of Tsugimi's panic attacks they have to figure out what Ai wants to say cause she wont leave Tsugumi alone.

So with all said and done basically Ai had a really good friend Sentaro and then because of usual "Sacrifice traditions" Ai was chosen to be sacrificed. She wasnt like betrayed by Sentaro cause he was a kid and had hardly any say in it. After Ai died she was chosen as a Hell girl and stopped aging? its what im getting from that story.
And looks like Hajime and Tsugumi are connected to Sentaro somehow? maybe Sentaro is an ancestor? cause Ai for sure lived for a long time since human sacrifices were made long time ago.

And Ai thought that Tsugumi or Hajime wanted to kill her again, her emotions exploded and she went nuts.
To be buried while still being alive though.... Poor Ai :(

What was up with him getting flustered and blushing at the onsen? What a weird thing to include.

Rewatching this and it's still Epic.

Also Hajime and tsugumi got a weird relationship sometimes. Remember when he said she should drink milk for bigger breast and now this bath scene ? Creepy

This episode alone explained like 90% of the whole plot, nice. Ai being angry looks weird and also hell girl going to hell feels ironic, but damn, her backstory is actually sad, being burried by her best friend.

Nice to get glimpses of Ai's backstory and how she was sacrificed by not only the village but by the person she cared about the most back then in Sentarou. More elaboration on it I think would come soon but it was refreshing to see her harbor such fierce hatred for that bloodline that she wouldn't mind even being sent to the depths of Hell herself if it means getting revenge. Normally I wish shows were longer to cover more and go in depth, but I really wish this season was 1-cour instead of 2, just because the reduction of repetitive episodes and dumb episodes would have made this even more impactful imo. Just a shame, since I don't think the few quality episodes near the end would be able to recover this season as a good one.

Enma fue parte de un ritual de sacrificio cuando estaba viva, y de alguna forma termino siendo la chica del infierno. Ahora que lo recuerda siente odio. El próximo capitulo se investigara mas a fondo.

Well, that as different. I'm a little confused, but I'm sure it will be cleared up soon.

What the hell was Ai on about? "Transcending time to kill me again"? This girl going on some wild hallucinations here. It still doesn't make sense why Tsugumi can see through her Ai's eyes; unless as one of the posts here mentioned, Sentaro was also Ai's cousin. Meaning that Shibata and Enma are blood relatives.

he made a joke before with the milk (maybe not propriate joke with a kid her age but first child and single father so he doesn't know much about it), and path part, well hes single dad and some1 has to go with her, she is still 7-8 so she can't path alone accidents happen with kids easily

After 23 eps of nothing, the show decides to start being interesting, 3 eps before the end. Huh. Pretty good episode, as far as ghost anime goes.

Ai is pretty scary when emotional. I guess she is taking it out on what I presume is the Sentaro lineage. Wonderful episode as well.
