| Welp she changed her mind fast. But she still talk about heaven and said to the "good" people to not take their revenge, that's not really a good job as hell girl |
| Damn! Even the afterlife is unfair as fuck! Michiru does not deserve to be fated as the new Hell Girl. The people in that town got just what they deserved for killing Michiru and her parents!! So, what happens to Ai Enma now that there's a new Hell Girl? |
 |
| Too rushed, and really turned out badly, this time the story real mess, Michiru becoming Hell Girl against every reason, and now there is 2 hell girl... Nonsense about going heaven etc.. Story the worst of all makes no sense. I pretend this season never happened and a fan fiction. With about 1 good episode, 1-2 okay, the rest are pure trash |
MikazukiRanbu said: Well. If this is the end, I did not enjoy this season at all. The stories felt random with people in the stories being unrealistically cruel No offense meant but you must be really sheltered if you think these were unrealistically cruel. Not upset common, but serious bullying, rape, assault, elderly abuse, ect.,all happen somewhere in the world on a daily basis. Very realistic, if anything. |

dustyrice said: The Voice Actress for Michiru, Watada Misaki, mentioned in her Youtube channel that Yoi no Togi will be the climax of the Hell Girl series. God I hope that's not true. Was a seriously depressing finale if so. Ai deserves better. I don't know why they keep trying to give us new Hell Girls. Ai is a big reason people like this series. They really need to evaluate what people love about the original show and work off that again. I don't mind Michiru as a character and having two Hell Girls that do things differently honestly wouldn't be bad but they can't get rid of Ai and they can't just end it the way this episode did. |

| The episode continues when end the 5,a nd was very nice and how the amnesic girl of the first episode is transformed in a new Jigoku Shoujo.... the character havent the strong and the atractive to Ai, but is interesting to create a "spin off"!!!! xD |

I think that by 'climax' refers to the important turning point of the series (that is by making Michiru as the Hell Girl successor, showing the existance of two Hell Girls, & the possibility of the Hell's Crew to be redeemed in Heaven). I really don't think that Jigoku Shoujo will end this way as it would be too abrupt, and cliff-hanging. There are many questions left unanswered such if Ai ever get the chance to finally be free from the Hell Spider's contract, etc. I would be disappointed if they leave us with such, short + less appealing final season for us fans. Though I am still thankful that they've created Michiru though XD Honestly, I still want more Jigoku Shoujo. I hope that there is a sequel announcement in the end of the airing session. |
| Peridot is my favorite Crystal Gem. |
| Those 2 guys were really horrible! One of them even raped the sister of the guy the girl were dating...She went to jail coz she turned off her dad's equipment? So, does it mean, we won't see Ai as hell girl anymore? I hope not... |
 |
| I agree that the overall story arc was rushed, though IMO perhaps only 1 more episode was needed; it wasn't *that* rushed... I kinda feel like you guys are missing the trees for the forest though. This is really meant to be an episodic anime and y'all keep whining about the overall direction. The overarching storyline really isn't the meat of the series, it's more just a glue to hold the episodes together and occasionally deliver a couple exceptional episodes for the season finale. The heart of the series is in each individual episode, nearly every one of which is crafted as a stand-alone story to enjoy on its own merits. |
| “Money can't buy dere” |
| IT'S NOT THE SAME!!! But damn pretty impressive episode I must say, especially that ending! Really looking forwards to see what will happen next! |
 |
| I want Ai to stay as hell girl. I know what I'm saying is cruel but she's the only one for the role. |
If you are going to disagree with me, don't bother talking to me. I will seriously hurt you! |
| Unmarked 6/10 Futakomori 10/10 Mitsuganae 7/10 Yoi no togi 9/10 People are hating coz half of the show is recap when you can just see it as a 6 episodes series like I do |
| i enjoyed the previous three seasons this one was pretty terrible |
| Too bad that this series has only 6 new episodes. At least i really like these 6. My final judge: 6/10. |
| "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." |
| I can understand people hating on it being just 6 episodes but wish they would reasonably continue this arc perhaps it even gave the feeling that would remind of 3rd season it still was great to watch it is what, 12 years since the beginning? and 8 since mitsuganae it still was nice to get them Ippen Shinde Miru |

| Michiru disappoints me... The development that led Yuzuki to become a Hell Girl was far better planned out. Sucks that Yuzuki got discarded not long after becoming an interesting character. About Kikuri. Is she just the Spider playing along? I mean it's the Spider that wants to assign a new Hell Girl, but Kikuri is against it. Could she be a 2nd personality to the Spider, or perhaps a vessel that is entirely independent? Also, I remember Ai explaining that pulling the string will cause the contractor to "never go to heaven" was that a figure of speech? or is her ignorance of heaven's existence a plot hole? |
| Enma is the only Hell Girl for me, I feel like Michiru became hell girl too fast, was expecting 2 or more episode before something causes her to decide not this. Anyway, I'm assuming the season's done judging by the post credit scene, if that ends up being true, I can't say I'm a huge fan of this season, it was too short... too damn short |
 |
| Tetsuya's finally making an effort to make things work out for her so she wouldn't need to damn herself to hell like how he did to himself to avenge her sister for getting raped by one of the drunk delinquents that made ramen man a vegetable but she really didn't hesitate on taking the easy way out which was ironically self-damnation. If she took things legally and signed a waiver to allow the staff to end life support, she wouldn't have been arrested and she would've been married to him for the rest of their doomed but happy lives. Michiru was very conflicted about the being the next Hell Girl thing but did the job exactly how Enma would've done it in her first job anyway. It might be because of the realization that there's no escape from it and the psychological effect of being forced to listen to the wind chime from your haunted past ring above her head whenever she tries to run away. I'm somewhat glad that she's actually making an effort to convince others to not make rash decisions later on but I felt pretty down about how she speaks of heaven like she'll go there when the destiny of hell girls is to be bound to this duty. Enma knows it too well, looking at how empty she's become. Kikuri got dumped too ;-; The art's very iffy at times, reminding me of that one Gurren Lagann episode 4 that was outsourced and very eh looking but the stories about the contracts were as good as ever since I enjoyed myself anyway so this one's pretty good. |

| I thought all the episodes this season were decent, so I think I liked it more overall than season 3. Michiru becoming Hell Girl for seemingly no reason was rushed, but at least it was better than Yuzuki not even completing a single mission at the end of season 3. I also liked Michiru encouraging the kid not to commit suicide. 6/10 |
 |
| well, with bad budget, and staffs not even caring anymore, this is what you get, this is definitely the worst of all the Jigoku Shoujo series, if it is even part of it, which I don't believe it is. Anyway, i'll just say that this is just a spin off and not part of the main storyline, Jigoku Shoujo ended in Futakomori or Mitsuganae would be even much better. But Michiru being Hell Girl has a different feel to it, she has a different way of doing some things in comparison with how Ai does things. Anyway, still a 8/10 for me, just because I'm a fan of Ai. |

| Michiru saying ippe shindemiru sounded so wrong and bad 😂 mostly cause her voice |

| Welllll, this was the end? Only 6 episodes for this with the remaining 6 being just episodes from the last 3 seasons. Where do I even start? First of all I want to get this out. I did not like this season in any way, shape or form. Second of all: how do I put this --- WHERE DID THE PLOT FROM LITERALLY ALL 3 SEASONS GO? This did not make sense at all. I wonder if this actually is in the manga. As you know, at the end of Mitsuganae, Ai saved Yuzuki for a solid reason, she didn't do it just for the sake of doing it. And that's what I liked about Mitsuganae, hence I gaveit 7/10 (there were still problems with it though, but the ending raised the score to 7). Now, Yoi no Togi, this 4th season made no sense. After saving Yuzuki and taking her punishment, the spider told Ai that she will always be Hell Girl until the resentment in this world will have disappeared. But uh, did this season forget that? I mean yes, 8-9 years have passed but you shouldn't forget THE BIGGEST THING that we got out of Mitsuganae. Michiru as a character also didn't make sense. Even if we overlook the fact that Ai should still be hell girl, Michiru went from "Get away from me, I'll never be hell girl" to "Oh yea sure, I never said did but I'm hell girl now". Why? There wasn't a single reason. Even this case wasn't related to Michiru at all because there wasn't a single kid in the equation. What I'm getting out of this is that the 4th season is basically a compensation for the ones that hated Mitsuganae because "Yuzuki didn't become hell girl in the end" and I love the fact that it happened. Ai is hell girl and should be for the rest of this series. Also, these cases were extremely weird. Everything was too brutal, even for that world and Tsugumi didn't make any sense in this season. If you've watched the last 3 seasons, you should know who she is and why she appears in the story. But she didn't help with anything in this case so it's weird. And I still don't really like how Yamawaro went with Michiru but at least she won't be alone. I'll miss Kikuri a lot, same with Wanyuudou, Ren, Ai and Tsuyu (her original name). Also I don't understand what happened to Ai after and why is Wanyuudou the only one with her when clearly in the last season when Yuzuki became Hell Girl for only one case, everyone left with Wanyuudou leaving after when he realized that Yuzuki wasn't doing the right job as hell girl. They should all be together. I still don't know what score to give this season. It will probably be around 5/10. |
Come on man,where is that Noragami season 3 masterpiece.We want it, Bones! |
Sargon_Torchrise said: No. Ai will go to heaven. Ai's crew disbanded so that's it. It will only be Michiru and Yamawaro. We're really out here trying to start discourse over comments that are like 4-6 years old? About a 'mediocre at best fourth season of an anime'? As much as I loved most of this series, I genuinely forgot about this season's existence until you replied to a 5 year old forum post. So you want discourse? Here's your discourse. Sargon_Torchrise said: MomoSinX said: My guess is that there 2 hell girls now since Ai's eyes are still red which implies she didn't become human again. Enma Ai's eyes has always been red from the time she was born. Watch her backstory. As a human, her red eyes were normal. This is just easily debunked and untrue. You can literally check the wiki and see images of her human eyes being brown. Sargon_Torchrise said: Well here's the truth. Gangsters, gold diggers, sexual perverts, control freaks, thuggish physical bullies, cruel emotional verbal bullies, and murderous school bullies do exist. No one said they didn't. There's a difference between being realistic and being overblown. Many seasons of Hell Girl are very good at potraying realistic cruelty without being overly unbelievable. As I said I don't remember this season that well at all because it's not worth remembering, but I do remember that not all potrayals of these situations felt in any way realistic or viable like you're pretending they do. They're not saying these things aren't real, they're saying they aren't potrayed realistically. A lot of Hell Girl is top tier anime, but this season was mediocre. That's okay. Ultimately, no one seems to be quite clear about whether or not Ai has passed on or continues to work side by side with the new Hell Girl. It's debated on just about every forum I can find about the ending. Chill out, man. |
| And in the end, we never got to see Ai's grandmother This season was just them milking the series to death |
