I’m sure you have heard about it, but it’s her eyes. Those big, round, red eyes. Starring deep straight into your soul. The script from the first episode to episode 12 feels somewhat rather weak. The story doesn’t seem interesting enough to captivate viewers. I’m guessing that if a viewer was to drop this anime, it would be before episode 12. Some episodes did get really hateful (Lol! Is that a proper word?) and some characters irritating.
I hate it that they repeat the same cut scene every time Jigoku Shoujo appears. It’s like something out of a bad Power Rangers episode. No matter how elegant her “dance” is, it will still get boring after you watch it repetitively. If any point you feel too bored and want to drop the anime, I’d suggest skipping forward through the repetitive scenes like during the “summoning” of the J-Girl when cursing someone or when she is coming out from her hosts body.
But if you hold it out till episode 13, the anime makes a turn becoming much more interesting. Different styles of telling the story appears and it really freshens up the whole series.
Jigoku Shoujo Mitsuganae is different from the original series in the sense that previously it was random characters with their own storyline every episode. But now, the story revolves around people from the same community. All characters (or rather victims) are related to each other in one way or another. This series isn’t as dark as the original Jigoku Shoujo series. So some fans might get disappointed.
Jigoku Shoujo Mitsuganae
Rating: 3-Stars
Torrents: Yuurisan
An little advise, try watching this series episode by episode instead of multiple episodes at one go as it might get a little dull. Personally, I can’t do more than 3 episodes without taking a long break.
