It's up!!
sorry angel999.. can't help myself.. XD

Well, this episode was quite interesting. And we're beginning to see the dark trend of this season clearly.. Yaoi n Yuri..

Some of you tried to guess that the 'sensei' is ichimokuren.. good guess, but unfortunately it was just a fake.. haha.. the real 'sensei' the 'innocent' schoolgirls are in love with is hone onna.. or sone anna.. and ichimokuren was just in the way, and almost got himself sent to hell.. ah, but he's already dead and a demon too ^^;

It seems there's also another distinct trend this season.. the person who seems to be the one to send someone to hell gets sent.. A very smart plot turn.. However, very immature.. I can't imagine high school girls being so stupid to send ppl to hell just by the spur of the moment.

Well, this episode's theme, i think, is "Beware of Timid-looking Silent Girls". That Seriza is just super-conceited and totally lesbian.. I think one of the problems with this season is there are too few high school guys in the view.. And even Wanyuudou the spy garderner has his fans.. lol

Ah, and some fan-service with enma ai in PE cosplay.. haha..

Subs are out! Ill edit this comment with my usual review after I watch it.

Comments made while watching:

-Apparently Verizon is offering a new plan that gives free access to Hell Correspondence. They never stop working for you.

-If Kikuri, im sorry, Princess Kikurii came to tell her that she is out of area...

-Just lick the eyeball and your grudge will be delivered to hell...yeah thats probably not going to be as popular as the dolls and strings.

-Wow she put Ren's name in? This should be interesting, assuming Ai is still under contract...

-"If I had a guess, its probably because im too beautiful." Yeah thats probably the reason right there, honestly it would surprise me :D

-Wow that girl has some big...oh wait nevermind she was just holding towels...bad Seekster.

-You are threatening to strangle the poor girl because she dropped at baton?!?

-Perfect couple, a sword and a skeleton lady, yup thats a match made in hell.

-So im guessing the new kid has the power to control plants, time to get creative.

-Oh crap thats "The Omen" music played backwards (not really), I knew there was something weird about that girl...

-What the hell?!? They are bandaids, not golden tickets!

-By now Yuzuki must be wondering what the heck is wrong with the girls at her school.

-There is something very twisted and wrong with those girls, just to skrew with them, Honne Onna should move to another school and see which one of them tries to follow her first.

-By now Yuzuki also must have a genuine fear of butterlys, especially the back busting kind.

-Lol at Ai coughing and Princess Kikuri's gear running out in mid step.

-LOL You just told Hell Girl to go to hell, she comes back and goes. "No YOU go to hell."

-Wait a moment that "Pitiful shadow cloaked and darkness" speech was not the same recording as usual, thats kind of neat.

-Oh God Wanyudo is next!

Post Episode Comments:

I think the big thing to watch in this episode is Ai's hesitation near the end. At first I though she had actually been hurt by the girl when she kicked her but that doesnt sound reasonable so it may be possible that she was actually hesistant because the whole conflict was a HUGE misunderstanding brought on by the presence of Honne Onna and the others. If thats the case then it would confirm that Ai is no longer under contract to send people to hell, which begs the question why she is still doing it. I just hope they explain what happened with Ai between Season 2 and 3. Still good episode.

Verdict:

A resounding no! Ok the girl was a little creepy and possesive, not to mention devious and two-faced. But that still isnt a reason to send her to hell. Once again this is actually the first time in the series where one of Ai's companions directly (although unwittingly) contributed to someone being sent to hell. I dont think that means anything I just think that it is neat.

one cannot take revenge on someone who is already serving time in hell. serissa could not take revenge on her because she cannot be sent to hell.

why did the speech get cut off near the end?

if you notice, a great number of cases have been based on nothing but misunderstandings. it should be clear by now that one does not have to have a valid or logical reason to send them to hell. they merely have to have the hatred to summon the web page.

another thing is that people's emotions are vastly exsagerated to a point where its just too absurd. perhaps its because you can actually send someone to hell that people are pushed to the breaking point more easily.


as far as the phone thing....hell girl summonings used to be done via snail mail and news paper back in the days when e-mail wasn't around. one only needs a means of connection.

Pretty strange developments, but it's great to see "new" themes and a highschool background in Jigoku Shoujo. Still, it doesn't get too repetitive for now, so it remains at least decent. I wonder how Enma Ai could be in pain from the kick the girl gave her though, isn't she supposed to be invincible, or at least too powerful to be hurt by mere humans (even more in an alternative reality she created)?

I thought it might be my imagination, but Enma Ai really does seem to be sick. Perhaps it's due to the lack of a body which means we can only expect her sickness to worsen over time. It's an interesting development.

The eyeball seems to be Kikuri's idea of a joke, 'sorry we can't send your victim to hell right now so take this complimentary eyeball'
I wonder what happened to the eyeball after that...

I think the eye was becasue Ren is actually an eye.

I think they screwed up with this new series, they are just silly.
I mean, some of the ones in previous series are silly, such as the one with the ped dog, but this season....
Sending people to hell just because of a bunch of school girls (all of them) fall into lesbian love with the teacher.

I'll prob only keep watching, to see if events turn out like they did in the previous two, or I might just drop it untill the story starts.

Some after thoughts of subs: THIS IS STUPID! Demons (Ren and Hone Onna) tricking two girls due to their foolish need for attention. One ugly and gloomy..........the other is Miss Bi-Tomboy.

ONE THING I LEARNED: never put two working demons together or even one of them can get killed by a human's hatred..........GOOD THING Ren did not get punished by Ai BUT IT WOULD BE VERY COOL just to see!

hmm Ai should be immortal, so she shouldn't be hurt by something like that.. but i just thought about it and realized, she's possesing yuzuki's body, so this means it is possible for her to get hurt. well, she wanted to be a normal human girl anyways.. ^^

Ichimoku Ren was a sword spirit. But he uses his other eye to spy on people (his left eye is always covered by his hair, and it can extend to places to watch people)

I thought it's 'cause she was hurt by that kick. She was holding her waist (where she was kicked), as she was doing her speech.

I think also the reason why Ichimoku wasn't being sent to hell besides the fact that he's Ai's assistant and thus can't be sent to Hell, was because the girl used his fake name....

Laughed at the part after Ichimoko Ren found out that the girl wasn't interested in him but at Hone Onna loool, and Wanyuudo smile is also loooool.

But damnit, students in that school are fucking liars. That girl just lied to that other girl about being the favorite student. All the students in that school should just go to hell. XD

Super late response to an old post (cuz I just watched this ep) but no that's not right. She did tell Morohoshi about the covenant. I guess her coughing is supposed to be kick aftermath? lol. i dunno, whatevers

It's hard to believe, but this episode was almost like magical. Yeah, I saw almost everything I wished for(when I was watching the OP and I was waiting for the real stuff to start). First I thought "Well, we got one YAOI this far, I think it will be fair to see one YURI." And guess what - that's exactly what we got here(although it was more like shoujo-ai). It's not like I like shoujo-ai, but it just seemed fair to me(I really want to see some true drama including heterosexual people, like what we had in previous seasons... well, yeah even though one of them was BROTHERxSISTER...). Secondly, I thought "What if someone tries to send Ichimoku Ren to Hell? Well yeah, I got the answer almost instantly.
This episode is pure example of why you must not build self-confidence in others, or they might do so-o-o-o-o-o-o stupid things. Like provoking girl whose stupid enough to send you to Hell. Like she didn't know it's possible for her to get sent because of someone's hatred.
Serissa's words "Fall to Hell" seem pretty much ironic, considering Enma Ai is already in Hell.
Wanyudo's smile = WIN!

Anyways, this episode brings me to feelings somewhat close to these which I felt while I was watching Season 1 or Futukamori. They keep doing right second episode in a row. Lets hope for the best!

I have two versions about Ai's current job. She either ends up liking this all send-to-hell job, that she just feels like she'll do it for all an eternity. Second version - Ai lives her punishment in Hell after she died in Futukamori. Both of them seem reliable to me, but the second is somewhat more reliable than the first.

I took this as it was Yuzuki's body that was hurt because it is her mortal body... Ai needs to be careful from now on now that she realizes her mortality.

Yay, Yuri!! And Hone Onna's in it! Well, it's more of a shoujo-ai, but still. I hope to see one more episode of Yuri, hopefully an adult, with Hone Onna!
I really like the first half of this episode. I wished it just stopped there, but no, someone has to die or sent to hell.

When she was about to cheat in the last match, I was like, "No, you wouldn't dare do something Ai."
Hone Onna, I wouldn't mind seeing you half-boned. Haha.

Wow... that last discussion thread for that Yaoi episode was sooo full of hate and "homophobes" gay-bashing... and this Yuri episode discussion thread is all like "Yay Yuri!"
Don't call yourself homophobes if you hate only Yaoi and not Yuri... you are not homophobic, you are an asshole. (It's not really a phobia, it's just people being jerks anyway)

Anyway, this episode was good. And that bitch... how dares she kick Enma! >.<

For those who are wondering what was wrong with Enma, I also think it's because of that kick she received.

(Hope to see more Yaoi and Yuri. It makes episode more interesting xD)

People getting sent to hell in this episode because of Hone Onna and others decided to become humans and messed up. Is this even fair? They are not even suppose to interfere, it is their fault that these 2 girls is getting sent to hell and they don't even seem to acknowledge it.
