Synopsis

Utsunomiya Sousuke is dead. But his new life is about to begin...in Hell! Upon awakening in the Afterlife, Sousuke meets his painfully sexy devil guide Sanagi, who may be short of stature, but packs an all-powerful punch. Like Rintaro before him, can the hopelessly irreverent Sousuke repent from his sins, or is he fated to be forever tortured and teased by a gorgeous demonic temptress?

tl;dr: A manga with a premise that's still very much interesting despite not having advanced at all beyond the previous series, but marred by an execution that ends before really getting anywhere. 

This manga is a sequel to Jigokuren: Love in Hell, which takes place in the same place as its predecessor with some characters from the previous series popping in at times but being concerned mainly with new characters. Hence all the old interesting aspects, such the strange relationship between sinners and their demon partners that torture them but also take care of them or the economy where pain and suffering is the foundation for their currency, carry over. There are some new mechanics, ...

As a fan as the original series, this sequel was not bad.

Story: So the story is the same as the first series, a sinner starts his atonement in hell with his sexy (?) demon supervisor.

Same world, but different characters from the original.

Art: The art is seriously amazing in my opinion. Disgusting gore, creepy smiles and beautiful girls, it's all so damn perfectly drawn that it's sad the series is so short.

Note: I gave the first series a 6/10 and thought it was okay, but I am one to finish a series and its sequels off no matter my score.

Read this on another site, and it's... weaker than the prequel. Character's are weaker, the end was forced and uninteresting, and it brought nothing really new to the table. I especially disliked how Chiko from the first series was made a worse character and was just a jiggle wobble joke and seen as an annoyance.

5/10 Did you want more of the first series? This will scratch a similar itch. Hoping for improvements from then? They aren't here.
