The Six-Script Lantern

Hell Girl

A woman named Azusa Mayama is angry that investigator Norihisa, the father of Yuzuki's best friend Akie, halted investigation on her father's accident because it involved the son of a prestigious family. At the lantern festival, Yuzuki sees her reflection at the gate to Hell but Tsugumi Shibata, now a grown woman, warns her that she may not return if she crosses. Yuzuki realizes Akie is in trouble and contacts Norihisa. To get revenge, Azusa sends a man in to rape Akie but Norihisa arrives in time. Ai separates from Yuzuki, receiving back her real body as a festival gift. Yuzuki believes that she is finally free of Hell Girl, but Akie later disappears right in front of her when Azusa sends Akie to Hell. Yuzuki's eyes flicker red as she screams.
