Characters in this anime are victims who can't stand any more pain and than they become desperate and seek help in jigoku shoujo, a girl from hell. But when they accept covenant wirh her, they become sinners. Some person who commits a mortal sin is one who knows that their sin is wrong. In this anime, direct and intentional killing is gravely sinful And because a life on earth seems unbearable to them, they are ready to suffer eternally in hell. I liked that main story and I liked the side stories (it's not a repetative to me). I also liked
the connection between characters, and psichology of the vicims and bullies. Shibata Hajime is a great positive person with a good, bright character traits and Enma Ai is a great in a negative and a sad, dark way. Hell girl is not be for people who love fast story line with action, but if you like tragedy and violence this is for you. (show less)
