| So, in the end, what's the point of this season? Low-quality MOST of the episodic stories, ruined the last season's ending and gave a bad ending to pretty much everyone (except for Yuzuki who avoided going to hell, I think). Disappointing. This should've ended with the 2nd season while omitting Tsugumi's scene so that it doesn't feel as a cliffhanger. (I'm going to re-watch the last minutes of it just to keep it as the last thing I saw from Hell Girl) |
| ...bwahaha- and that's when she figured "hm, maybe this didn't go quite as well as i had thought it would.." i keep wondering about Yamawaru though; he wasn't human to begin with, but he joined Ai's crew, did that give him any special powers or something? "i will accept the punishment" <--we've been here before people. -...i am uncertain what that really meant, umh.... two things i didn't quite understand; the kiss, and who was the woman by the end..? oh, wait- that was the son escaping to 'murrica, the daughter of the taxi-driver and.... ....the son's mother? the policeman's maid? tbh, i couldn't remember her face _xD |
 I like to comment Episodes as i Watch them. |
| I didn't like Yuzuki being Hell Girl. It has to be Ai afterall. |
If you are going to disagree with me, don't bother talking to me. I will seriously hurt you! |
| Honestly this is a bad season. The last 2 episodes are the only good thing. |

The last couple of episodes were a huge feels trip for me... I need to relax... |
| It was a decent ending, last couple of episodes were good indeed, but that it. The ending made this season absolutely pointless since all the development of yuzuki becoming jigoku shoujo was turned out to be a waste. I'm a bit disappointed and imo this season was not needed at all. |

| i almost tared up, Ai should have taken her to be her companion cause like she said they are alike, she would have been much better companion then other's when it comes to emotional stuff & shouldering part of her pain japanme32 said: dragonshade said: seriously, what happened to Yuzuki after that. thats the only place I couldnt catch She was swept back into the past to not die at the time she was to die? Maybe? Something of time paradox. Predseln said: I dont get it why you guys say poor Ai, poor Yuzuki. Uneable to go to heaven(which she deserved), wandering between the two worlds. Being chosen as one of the next Jigoku Shoujo and shown so much suffering and sadness, while living in a complete illusion. Seeing her best friend dissappearing into hell and have to bear with all the pain caused by Ai. She is the only truly sad character in this show, i hope she will find peace in heaven and maybe will be able to meet Akie. oh well, but i neither couldt understand the part between her and Ai so iam also waiting for Subs to fully understand what happens to her.... i just hope for the best. Ai somewhat deserves to go all that suffering, because she doesnt even try to stop sending innocent people to hell on behalf of mostly senseless grudges! i hope that humanity wouldnt sell her souls for this kind of things... at the end, i really like that show and at the same time i hate it like nothing else. It just makes me think about so much, like my own weaknesses and fears... its to hard to explain! EShirou said: I... don't understand the ending can someone explain to me since EDIT: Ok after collecting some data i think i understand more, the only part i don't understand is Aside from this, I WANT 4th SEASON, NOW!! nope Yuzuki moved on to haven like a ghost story once her emotions that keep her here in this world are resolved she moves on, so Yuzuki free & in haven new Jacut said: Jacut said: However, seeing the preview of the next episode I have a feeling that Yuzuki is just another failure of a Jigoku Shoujo that will act by pure revenge and ressentment more than by duty and won't pass the Jigoku test. We may then see Enma Ai again. Just my two cents though. Seems like I predicted the ending very accurately last week (yay I know it was quite easy ;)). At least that means that the reasoning behind the series was good and that the scriptwriters achieved what they wanted to, so that's a pretty good ending, even if a bit predictable and conventional. Overall, the series was exactly at the same level as the first two. Except for the animation and art, the three seasons are pretty much identical from beginning to end in terms of scenario, characters, themes, and overall structure, so it os worth an 8/10 for me. all went like Ai planned, u do remember she can see the future at least little bit, she wanted to free her from the beginning, but that game she played was necessary to achieve it demontwi said: reira93 said: but i didnt understand why ai said u are meT-T. someone explain it,plz? Ai just meant that her and Yuzuki's stories were similar. They were both sort of abandoned by their town/village and even those who were close to them. (Ai's boyfriend and the shopkeeper where Yuzuki's got groceries) Anyways, for the first fifteen episodes or so I was really disappointed by the third season, but after the episode where Akie disappeared I started to enjoy it as much as the other two. I really liked the ending, and even though they left a few questions I'd like to know the answer to unanswered, I think they should leave it and not make a fourth season. I especially loved the part where whats-her-face stabbed the guy truly responsible for what happened to her father, then was immediately after sent to hell herself. 10/10 from me. :3 at least some got the point groovykirito said: soooooo what was the point of building up yuzuki to be hell girl then snatching it away from her in two seconds??? cmon?? not clear on what happened to hajime. overall 6/10 like i said above all went like Ai planned from the start, AI so herself in Yuzuki & wanted to save her, cause no1 saved her & she didn't want another the suffer like that Markcolloway said: It was a decent ending, last couple of episodes were good indeed, but that it. The ending made this season absolutely pointless since all the development of yuzuki becoming jigoku shoujo was turned out to be a waste. I'm a bit disappointed and imo this season was not needed at all. it had a point, point was to save Yuzuki in the end, i explained about it above a bit |

| Ok. 3rd season wasn't good as 1st and 2nd. It has some moments, but that is all. 5/10. If 4th season isn't any better then I'm glad that it only has 12. |

| Yuzuki got sent to the dimension of the unknown :( I'll miss her.. *pretends she didn't disappear T_T* Ai's early days as a Hell Girl were most likely similar to Yuzuki. She also used her emotions and played the judge only to be punished and get sent to hell. That, in addition to the similarity of their backstory (killed alongside her parents by her neighborhood), made her see too much of herself in Yuzuki. Ai didn't want Yuzuki to go through the shit that made her suffer further and eventually go emotionally numb. She respected Yuzuki's innocent-yet-rebellious soul, but also cared about her, and so she chose to send her off to a peaceful place after revealing how similar they actually are. Yuzuki = Past Ai. Kikuri/Spider-Judge-Thing seems to have gone relatively lenient with Ai over the time. |

| I liked the fact that this season had an overarching storyline, but it kinda felt like a more repetitive season 1, with Yuzuki repeatedly failing to stop people from banishing others to Hell. For some reason she is acquainted with all the clients. Also, I don't know what was the point of having Ai kiss Yuzuki to possess her and show her her memories. Think I probably liked the first two seasons better, though I did like episode 20. 5/10 |

| I somehow have mixed feelings about that ending, I don't know if I completely like it that Ai has to go through being Jigoku Shoujo forever, never to be freed again. Agh, damn it, now this is what the OP song means, Ai is just like a crazy little bird, wanting to be caged again. After all she's been through, she thought about Yuzuki before even thinking about herself. AGGHHHHHH >_<. But anyway, If somehow, Yuzuki became the hell girl, we wouldn't see more of Ai, but still, to go through this forever.... nah... that's just too much. Let Ai have her rest. Agh.. yeah, "one escaped" and it was Yuzuki, Ai chose to be bound as Hell Girl, forever. Poor Ai, my kawaii Ai... Nice Airport scene ending though, Tsujino-bashi finally got killed by the woman who sent Akie and then the maid banished that very woman to hell, very nice. |

| Akis father dudn't pull the string but their house jerper did ofc after that bitch was get her revenge and stab that bastard 😂😂😂 what a amusing twist in the end i wan't to hug both yuzuki and ai right new dragonshade said: seriously, what happened to Yuzuki after that. thats the only place I couldnt catch japanme32 said: dragonshade said: seriously, what happened to Yuzuki after that. thats the only place I couldnt catch She was swept back into the past to not die at the time she was to die? Maybe? Something of time paradox. nope ai helped her to get in haven instead of hell, its not time travel show they can obly show the past not travel in to past |

| Ugh, I feel like this was a downgrade compared to season 2. The premise was interesting, but ultimately this failed to deliver. 6/10 I was pretty okay with them ending it there with season 2, honestly. |
| So it's over huh,poor Ai crying. Damn we never got to see what Enma Ai's grandma looks like. |
| The ending felt so satisfyingggg. Ai is back and it feels so good to see all 4 of them +kikuri and that boy together again. Now, there are still a lot of questions as the people before me have said, with the biggest one being Where is HAJIMEEE-CHAN!?. 7/10 for this season for me. Felt as good as the 1st season, though I still liked it more because Hajime and Tsugumi and also not as good as s2. From what I know, season 4 is only 6 episodes with the other 6 being a rebroadcast of the first 6 so that's kind of a letdown. I still don't know if the manga is over and all that. |
Come on man,where is that Noragami season 3 masterpiece.We want it, Bones! |
| It was oblivious that there was no way to wrap up the season satisfyingly with only one episode, so its not that disappointing. However, Ai comparing nobody helping Yuzuki and her mother and the Yuzuki being unable to stop others from being sent to hell makes no sense. She says its due to human selfishness and that those people did not help, because they believe its not possible, thinking about "what are they going to do?". That argument falls flat when you consider that the entire season built up to the notion that Yuzuki was destined to become Hell Girl and therefor unable to prevent these events from happening. So, either that argument is meant to compare how these people think its impossible to change something with Yuzuki who fails because she is fated to fail, or it implies that there was no destiny and Yuzuki was just very incompetent in stopping these people from being sent to hell. Then there is also the possiblity that the writers had no idea what they wanted to convey. All these examples are equally as jarring. Damn Ai why do you make me continue watching this mess? |
No Blood. No Bone. No Ash. |
| This end could have been a good conclusion for the series. |
| Ah how fitting. In the very end, it's still the same "Ichi nuketa" |
