| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Most saddest episode I have seen in this series and on top of that I have seen this right after seeing another depressing episode of GaRei Zero. Anyways now I have a heartache. I hate those but hey family health problems make you stuck with them when you are part of that family. This episode like #11 of GaRei Zero deserves a good review because this one looks more serious. The first thing I have to say is that I have not never seen in this series (anyone can correct me) that 3 people got sent to hell right away and then a fourth person got sent right after that. O_O The first thing I want to say is In Poland many are very Christian and so Am I thus I really believe in Hell. This being said let's go person by person.Will update with subs should I have time (at least the name). Asaba, the women working for the magazine company------->She was ok but I think a little stupid for being pissed off at the boss for not taking her article or publishing what she wanted and instead published something else. The person #1 that has a interest on the crimes done by that guy ------->sending his partner for some personal reason was perhaps justified in his own senses but I think it was wrong most likely cause the wife of the person who got sent by person #1 sent him to hell right after. So sad! :( Cried plenty plenty. Anime is so good I am thinking of watching just that. Some movies with friends I might go but anime for me seems to work now. Yui's sister------->who her sister Yui got killed at the beginning by that SOB ass****. That pissed me off so bad! What in the world? What kind of maniac goes around kidnapping girls and then attaching a weight on their legs to make them fall off skyscrapers to their deaths. That one was good that little punk went to hell! I would agreed with his punishment even they already caught him in prison. Let the little punk not have a single more second on earth's surface! Man, humans killing each other, what are we sometimes I ask myself even as a Chrisitan. Finally the wife of person who got sent by person #1------->She was damn right to send the other guy. She most likely loved that person enough for another grudge to be born. Probably the worst part for me was like my head telling me "Three people simultaneously" then the three straw dolls pulled. It was also a little bit rushed since it was three. The punishments were all similar that was lame! They should somehow made it a little more different for each one. I mean all three fall off skyscrapers? It was also about time they started the rumors of Jigoku Shoujo. In the previous seasons it was about that time they started to intensify but this one caught off guard which is why T_T Another thing I find ridiculous is why did Yuzuki not suffer more and why was she looking bitchy at one point? Are they showing us she becoming a bad girl? Forget that it was my illusion, I though they make up on her with her eyelashes. Good episode but sad------->4 people got to hell/2 more will got when death. 3/5, punishments too similar. At least #10 was funny. 1.Glad this guy is death 2.Triple straw doll string pull 1.  2.  In spoiler R.I.P. in hell people! 1.Magazine boss is bye bye 2.Both of them go bye bye |

Yeah I wonder how much more crazier it can get? |

| Enma's normal speech while falling from the building was a pretty cool scene. |

| Now we need half of the whole town go to hell at the same time. |
 "A Legend is but a tale of a beautiful lie." |
| it was a pretty interesting episode as other one said it wasnt as interesant like futakamori but it was good pretty stupid how the mom and son blamed the book enma still is cool  |
| Being a fan is like having a penis. Its nice to be proud of it But don't pull it out in public and wave it in other's faces Kyurem Black. Kyurem White. Together they are Pretty Kyurem. |
| Best episode of Mitsuganae for now. By the way, 4 people, among which two that clearly weren't bad people, going to Hell at the same time is nice ! Thank you irony ! Next episode seems interesting too, the guy doesn't know who to send to Hell, I bet we'll have a random kill again ;) |
 In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same. |
| FINALLY! God, I've been searching for this for over two weeks and couldn't even find the raw. W/e, at least I get subs along with it this time. Very interesting episode, this is probably the most creative one so far. Once again, the show is reflecting on the irony of using the Jigoku Tsuushin. I'm hoping for more excitement just like this one's in the next episodes as well. |
 Thanks, person who gave me this on another site a long time ago, lol. |
| lol i supose belief in hell is a sort of confort, much like heaven, a release of sort...a life line. oh well. are they now going into the mass cursing mode? last season was pretty massive. a whole city. they always accept the terms of the contracts but when its time to pay the piper, they are innocent too? hahaha. |
| Great episode, it was like a great hell conspiracy ^_>^ 'Hey, there's 3 of us, so we can send 3 people to hell!' Once again the irony is strong and the futility of such vengeance is portrayed. Another thing to note is that the 3 sent to hell all fell from considerable heights. I can understand the irony in why the kid fell, but I'm puzzled as to why the other two fell as well. Perhaps there's some sort of common theme here. |
"Cicadas, even though their lives last only a few weeks, fall in love and disappear" ~Heed the roar of the mighty ocelot~ |
| When the author was sent I was like "HEH?" then I was like "Oh!" |
| Awesome episode! Nothing like this has ever happened before so it was very entertaining. (well, there was the mass cursing in season 2 but like there has never been a conspiracy before :D) |
     |
| I was laughing when the author was sent to hell just for doing what he think was right. Just like went his co-worker was sent to hell just for saying his mother's own thought. I have no sense of humanity anymore. |
| fav episode this season, seems like a lot of people agree ^_^ more original than all the past episodes, but not more original than season 2. lol @ the kikuri and yamawaro scenes. Seems like he's completely filled the position as his babysitter. oh and the part where she's like "write down how you read these!" when he's being ferried to hell was pretty funny too. Somehow though this season's not as good as the other 2, there's definately more humour which I personally like =) |
 |
| Loool. They pulled the strings together. The best part is, the author also disappeared because someone sent him to hell. Oh, the irony. I think the only one who really deserved to go to hell was the murderer since it was his fault for being psychotic all because of a book. The editor was somewhat acceptable since we see this in our everyday lives. Mass Media always bends the truth. Just like the government. They never tell the truth. |
| Best episode so far this season. I really enjoyed the falling sequences and the triple string pull. I agree with Moonfrost about how only the murderer and maybe the editor should have been sent to hell. I can understand the murderer's mother hating the author though so it wasn't too surprising that he was sent to hell as well. The timing on it was perfect too. |
| jus cua of a book that kid goes and kills... wow... i felt bad 4 him 2 die but then again not at the same time X3 this was interesting... seeing 3 ppl gettin sent 2 hell at the same time and then seein the dude next XD awesome!!! XP |
 |
| wow.. loved that ep :-) triple string pull was awesome :-D that almost beat the second season's "mass pull". |
| I feel so sorry for the writer, because as he kept saying, he only wrote what he wanted to write. People write stories all the time about things a lot worse than that and he had to be hounded just because somebody was dumb enough to think it was a good idea to copy a book. >_< |
 If you don't remember something, it never happened. If you aren't remembered, you never existed. <3 |
| to be honest, i was not as impressed by this episode as most people seem to be. really, it kind of dragged on to me and their sudden idea to send three people to hell without much thought (aside from the older sister of the murder victim) just came off as stupid and rushed. |
| Poor author. |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
| Wow this was a ep I liked a lot one of my favs and really sad. For me best ep so far of this season. I really liked how they all pulled the string at the same time. And wow poor man I mean it wasn't his fault at all...all that just because a book. |
| This episode was... well done. Not just because we got 4 sendings in one episode. In someway it resembled the episodes from Season 1 to me. It was the atmosphere, it was the feeling I got while I watched it. It wasn't as good as the most episodes of Season 1(at least them), but still the feeling was close. What I didn't like were some of the reasons to pull the thread, and I mean - the editor and the author's "friend." Maybe the reason were not served in the right way to me, but still - I didn't like them. This episode could get way more dramatic, something like episode 14 from Season 1, in example. Although I said all that, I still miss the real Season 1 - everything in there was just perfect. If you look at some of the reasons to pull the string back then, you can say they're stupid, but the director of Season 1 in some way achieved something impossible - he made them look righteous in their own way. The background music helped a lot. So did the animation. This was never achieved to now by Futukamori or Mitsuganae(too bad =\ ). I will forever miss Season 1. |
  |
| Woh. A chain of hate.. I'm starting to fully understand the meaning of the saying "hate just brings more hate".. And the end was just O_O i honestly didn't see that coming (that the writer got sent to hell himself too).. And i hope there'll be more episodes (at least one more) with this massive-send-to-hell thing XD; that was kinda special. |
    |
| Amazing episode! Great ending, too... And now we confirm the candles' symbolism. Perfect Episode; 6/5 ★★★★✶   |
| Signature: |
| it would be funny if the authors mother sent the murders mom to hell.... |
| Woh great episode especially how it started quite freaky! The ending was also a bit of a twist, everything just done than the writer disappears :p Great episode I must say, some of them didn't need to go to hell other than the boy who killed those people imo! |
 |
| Definitely a nice episode, it had some blogging moments and sad one's, like the beginning. There were multiple murder's and finally someone sent that author to hell. I understand it wasn't his fault, but the reader own responsibility, but I am bias, cause a pretty girl died a horrible death. Happy to see the murderer at the beginning, gets his just desserts. Nerds Unit!  First time seeing 4 candle's lite.  |
 |
| Somewhat expected the author to get sent, although the timing of it was a bit surprising. =-=-=-=-=-= Just thought of an insane plot twist... Someone does something to Yuzuki, and she contacts Enma to send them to hell! Or better yet, Yuzuki contacts Enma to send Enma to hell for possessing her! |
| Some parts of this post may be exaggerated. |
| What an episode! I started laughing when the author was trying to convince the two girls to send someone to hell. Oh, one of the girls shared some insight about the Hell Correspondence. I forgot the exact line, but it's something like sending someone to hell because you hate them is unfair as they'll go to hell eventually. Even though they've realized this, they still pulled the strings. As for the murderer, I bet he was lonely. Just like the fortune teller in the last episode. Thought they're gonna have a threesome at the end. LOL. Too bad Mr. author. Kikuru was probably happy with this, they've got 4 customers at once. |
 |
| What an unfortunate episode =/ This kinda left me feeling awkward... Good ep either way, 4/5 |
 |
| that wasn't fully unexpected i actually thought the reporter or sister would sent the author to hell but in the end it was someone else but i think we all knew someone would sent him. pretty good episode but again 3 out of 4 didn't need to be sent to hell and maybe 4 if he wasn't the real killer that is. |
| "When a flat-chested loli hugs you, she holds you closer to her heart" "--I am a single bullet. It has no heart. Therefore, it does not think. It just flies straight towards its target."  |
| LOL this episode was kinda funny like i didn't really for sad at all. :D 4 people were sent to hell in one episode this is the first time there were multiple candles added in the end! Although this episode kinda sucked at the same time...well not the episode itself but what it is representing. How kids mimic things like violence and ect but the gist of this episode is pretty much: CHILDREN ARE RETARTED! *troll face* |
| Well, well.. well.. I'm trying, but I really can't get over the reasons why people get sent to Hell. I just can't, it's a lost cause. I'd like so much to isolate this season like a stand-alone to judge it better, but I can't. It's just an insult to the intellect. That said, I think this was the best episode (finally) of this season up to now. Two things I liked: the opening scene, with a murder! pretty incisive. The second is this new stuff of multiple banishing, I think we've never seen it before. But I don't get the cling on of people in here. In order to absolutely make other people get cursed they build such shallow and pathetic reasoning just because they HAVE to be pitied. God this is even not worthy of one thought. I am referring to the writer. The sister's victim can be understandable though. But. Pointless. If Hell exists, there's obviously some other place where your sister is. So why curse you and go to Hell as well? Finally Yuzuki seemed to take parts. |
| This was a little better than the previous ones though I wouldn't say them pulling the strings was justified at all. It was a little more interesting because we got to see 3 people pull the string at the same time and the author also ended up getting sent to hell by the murderer's mother. What was the point of sending the murderer to hell? He was already in custody of the police and he wasn't going to hurt anybody. What about the author's co-worker? All he did was give him his book back. The editor probably was the one who deserved going to hell the most for getting the author in a rut by altering the information from the interview. Definitely interesting episode though not the most well executed one. 7/10 |
| Anyone who blaimed the author is a complete retard. they are no different from those who claim videogames make children more violent. |
Oh, pitiful shadow cloaked in darkness. Thy actions cause men pain and suffering. Thy hollow soul drowns in thy sins. How would you like to see what death is like? -Enma Ai |
| That was some nice combo. |
| "The future is always blank. Only your willpower can leave footsteps there." "Ruling over death means ruling over life. Death is the climax of life. To have the best death, you must honor life." |
| books like don't make a killer, books like that only effect the way killers kill, so if they take inspiration from a book they are already sick in the head or trying to find excuse for their actions, same goes for games so ppl accusing books & games are idiots!!!!! Steven15ify said: Anyone who blaimed the author is a complete retard. they are no different from those who claim videogames make children more violent. yep i agree if it effect the some that shows he or she was already sick in the head, i mean it can only bring the killer out in person sooner, but it doesn't make person in to a killer i think u know this, but just in case u don't, GER has gone nuts with shooters, like game team had to make humans in to robots & replace blood with screw & bolts & metal getting hit effect cause otherwise its to violent & can make some1 in to a psychopath that's what GER is saying XD, so most shooter game teams no longer sell to GER & neither does this team cause they are fed up with GER demands of changing game so much, so if its shooter with biological life forms they wont even try to sell in GER, one yutube video talked about this issue with GER |

| Pretty average episode. Is it just me or did the mother find out about her missing son immediately after the author pulled the string? lol what's going on here? |
