* AnAesop: Vengeance isn't worth it. No matter how satisfying it is to see your tormentor get a taste of their own medicine, getting revenge on them will dig your own grave because you've descended to the level of that which you hate. This is shown by the central premise of the show: someone you hate gets DraggedOffToHell, but you'll be going to Hell when you die right along with them. As the old saying goes: "when seeking revenge, first dig two graves" — one for them, and one for you.

A murder mystery VisualNovel released for the [[UsefulNotes/Playstation2 PS2]]. It was envisioned as a wholesale superior successor to the [[UsefulNotes/NintendoDS DS]] game, ''Akekazura'', [[ObviousBeta which had a very troubled production]] and did not live up to Compile Heart's expectations. Chronologically taking place within the first half of ''Mitsuganae'', it follows Yuzuki enjoying summer break in the mountain village of Himamura, a religious residential said to be protected by a Hell Girl unaffiliated with Ai Enma.

* HauntedTechnology: Hell Correspondence was used to be a BBS forum where certain people can curse someone to get DraggedOffToHell, and in the present is a fairly standard website that shows up in a search engine, if the conditions are met. Ai also sends SMS confirmation to her client, which turns their phone screen red.

Added DiffLines:
* AreYouSureYouWantToDoThat: Entering the name to Hell Correspondence doesn't damn the victim, Ai first needs to validate the request, then to give the client the straw doll that activates when it's unsealed. For all intents and purposes, releasing the red string is as bad as killing the target yourself without leaving a trace, and Ai subtly suggests the client to reconsider, though almost always it's only a matter of time. Later it's shown that the string can even be pulled accidentally.
Added DiffLines:
* GrayingMorality: The first episodes follow a StrictlyFormula of the client having their entire life ruined by the target and it's only going downhill. It's subverted in Episode 7 where the client is an EntitledBitch and believes since she can't get what she wants she may as well pull the TakingYouWithMe on a fairly innocent person, [[spoiler:only for her victim to damn her first]]. Later, some cases of DisproportionateRetribution occasionally show up and Ai claims people regardless if they deserve it or not.

Added DiffLines:
* LoggingOntoTheFourthWall: The visibly featured jigokutsushin.net isn't real and likely never was. But it's simplistic design has spawned a lot of fan imitations.
Added DiffLines:
* PetTheDog: While Ai needs to do her job as a Hell Girl indiscriminately, it doesn't mean she can't stall before giving the doll, showing the client the details behind their problem, or trying to scare them from going through with it. If the client hasn't done anything wrong, their trouble gets fixed offscreen as well, though the curse remains. In Episode 10 when the straw doll gets stolen, Ai decides it's better this way if it's used improperly, but [[spoiler:the target later gives it to the [[{{Yandere}} client]] herself and is promtly banished away]].
Added DiffLines:
* StockFootage: When the string is pulled, the same sequence of Ai getting dressed up is shown, with diferent parts spliced up depending on the episode.
Added DiffLines:
* TheyLookJustLikeEveryoneElse: Ai and her cohort sometimes spend their time as disguised humans and manage to take jobs close to the client without raising suspision, if they feel there's something worth investigating.
