!!Jigoku no Gouka de Yaka re Tsuzuketa Shounen contains examples of:

* LonelyDoor: The Gates of Hell, which contain the Flames of Hell, is a large floating double door in the middle of nowhere.

The story begins in remote village of shamans that has kept the Gates of Hell sealed for 1,000 years. Should they be opened for any longer than a few moments, the {{hellfire}} trapped within would consume the world. Meanwhile, a plucky young lad named Valflare is attacked by the other shamans his age for being born outside of the village. After beating them all to a pulp, he learns from his master that he's been selected to become [[HumanSacrifice a sacrifice]] to suppress the flames for another thousand years.

* ParentsAsPeople: Flare's master loved him dearly, but was bound by the Northern shaman's culture and remained stern and distant from him. He also lacks the authority to overturn the shamans' decision to sacrifice Flare to suppress the fires of Hell, and regrets his inability to save him.

* PoorCommunicationKills: Flare's master was a SternTeacher and never once praised Flare for his efforts, nor does he try to stop Flare from entering the Gates of Hell. Because of these, even a happy-go-lucky Flare admits to bearing a grudge against him for not doing anything until he reads his master's diary, which reveals just how much he regrets being helpless to oppose the shaman council's decision and [[LikeASonToMe calling Flare his son.]]

* DreamingOfThingsToCome: After having a dream of Flare returning from the Gates of Hell, Flare's master made a set of Chaos magical equipment to give to him as an apology for sending him to his doom. While he knows that it's likely an impossibility, he clung to the hope that Flare would one day return. Flare finds the equipment in a drawer in immaculate conditions despite being 1,000 years old, wearing it as a memento of his dear master before setting out to experience his second life.

* AllOfTheOtherReindeer: Flare was not welcome in his home village, as he is an outsider who was taken in by his master. Because of this, the other shamans his age would gang up on him and try to beat him up, only to fail miserably thanks to Flare's rigorous training.
* AmazonianBeauty: Aishera is a StatuesqueStunner with a huge bust on top of having six-pack abs through her vigorous physical training to be Primavera's bodyguard. She's also strong enough to punch several men unconscious with ease.
* TheAntiNihilist: As an orphan from outside of the shaman village with no friends, no family, and no knowledge of the world outside of it, Flare never expected his life to amount to much. He's thankful to his master for taking him in and letting him live as long as he does and marches into the Gates of Hell with a smile on his face for the sake of saving the world. His cheer only fades when the excruciating pain of having his body instantly turned to charcoal and getting his soul torched by all the fires of hell drives him to madness for a time. But once he gets used to the pain, he's all smiles again, even finding the flames burning him pretty.
-->'''Flare:''' It's better to have fun than feel down. I'll live this second life for myself!
* BadPowersGoodPeople: Flare's body has been infused with all the fires of Hell, letting him scorch nearly anything with flames so hot that they'll even burn someone's soul. Luckily for normal people, Flare is a big-hearted guy who'd much rather use them to protect others.
* BodyguardCrush: Aishera is clearly in love with her liege, Primavera, and vows to protect her from anything and anyone (to maintain their alone time). Unfortunately for Aishera, Primavera is not receptive to these advances and has to DopeSlap Aishera when she gets too handsy or too violent in protecting her.
* BoredWithInsanity: It's implied that the unbearable agony of having his soul scorched by all the fires of Hell drove Flare to madness as he screams about not wanting to save the world anymore. But eventually he just becomes bored as the pain level never increases, so it simply becomes bothersome once his soul gets used to it.
* CharlesAtlasSuperpower: Even before absorbing the flames of hell into his body, Flare is strong enough to easily beat up a whole crowd of shamans his age with nothing but his bare hands and with little apparent effort. He mentions doing 20 sets of 5,000 pushups and 7,000 situps to his master, and regularly wears magical restraints too heavy for ordinary people to lift.
* ChasteHero: Flare seems to have little attraction to the opposite sex, if any. He's simply baffled when Aishera accuses him of being ready to jump Primavera at any time. He also doesn't understand why Primavera and Aishera are so mad at him for stripping them naked in their sleep so he can take their measurements given that it wasn't his first time seeing naked women.

* CommonalityConnection: Flare quickly strikes up a friendship with Bella over their shared pasts as HappilyAdopted orphans and love for bread. He even says that like her, he's one of the "lucky ones" for having his dream choose him rather than having to search for a meaning or purpose.
* CountryMouse: Flare never knew anything outside of his village before walking into Hell. Part of his reason for volunteering to become Primavera's bodyguard is the promise of seeing new things, and he's quickly awestruck when they first arrive in a city and is excited to learn what an ocean is. He also has no idea what money is and has to have gold and platinum explained to him.
* DoesNotKnowHisOwnStrength: Flare is nonchalant about using the Shackles of Suffering spell as makeshift resistance weights for training his arms and legs. When Aishera tries it herself, she's immediately weighed down and declares that no normal human could possibly lift this kind of weight.

* ElementalHair: Flare has a red streak in his dark hair to match his ability to produce hellfire.
* ElementalPunch: Flare learns to control his hellfire by using his shamanistic magic to concentrate it around his fists, letting him burn whatever he punches on top of allowing him to use them like rocket boosters to speed toward his destination.
* FateWorseThanDeath: The flames of Hell will burn away everything about a person, even their very soul. Because of this, a soul confined in Hell is trapped in neverending agony as the flames continue to burn it even after their body is nothing but dust. The pain is so immense that Flare wonders why he hasn't died yet as what's left of him curls up into a ball and wishes for the pain to end. Despite this, Flare's soul somehow remains intact and the pain becomes more of an annoyance after 1,000 years of the same sensation.
* FishOutOfTemporalWater: Having spent 1,000 years in Hell, Flare is woefully behind on the current state of world affairs and has no understanding of trade outside of bartering, needing to ask what gold and platinum coins are.
* ForgotAboutHisPowers: Due to still getting used to his new fire powers and coming to terms with what happened to the shaman village, Flare forgot that he has a spell that can show him directions when he's lost.
* FullContactMagic: Flare learns to control his hellfire by using his shaman magic to focus it around his fists to enhance his already devastating blows.
* FullFrontalAssault: All of Flare's clothes are instantly incinerated by the flames of Hell. So when he emerges from Hell, he's completely naked and ends up fighting a bunch of thieves without any clothes on until he can swipe some off of them.

* HappilyAdopted:
** Flare was an orphan and an outsider who was taken in by his master when no one else would. Despite the derision he got from the other shamans, Flare had a mostly happy childhood and loves his master like a father, to the point of willingly walking into the Gates of Hell for his master's sake and to save the world.
** Bella was found as a baby abandoned in the trash outside of a local bakery. The owners of the bakery ended up taking her in and raising her like their own daughter. She tries to help expand the business to pay them back, but gets harassed by local thugs with little business to show for it.
* HealingHands: Primavera is able to use healing magic to close wounds and alleviate pain.
* {{Hellfire}}: The flames of Hell are so hot that people are instantly turned to charcoal within seconds of being consumed by it before having their souls burned away. Flare's soul miraculously survives 1,000 years of it and he somehow makes a new flesh and blood body out of the flames. As a result, he's able to produce and manipulate them at will.
* HowDoIShotWeb: Flare initially struggles to control his hellfire with any degree of precision, burning away underbrush haphazardly and nearly burning Primavera while trying to take care of a raging giant boar. He comes up with the idea of using his shaman magic to concentrate the fire around his arms to make them easier to handle rather than shooting them everywhere.
* HumanPackMule: Due to his SuperStrength, Primavera and Aishera end up loading all of their supplies onto Flare. He doesn't mind much, seeing it as a training exercise.
* InnocentlyInsensitive: Flare has seen naked girls before back home, so he doesn't understand why Primavera and Aishera would be mad at him for stripping them naked to to get their body measurements.
* InsaneTrollLogic: The old lady who allows Flare, Primavera, and Aishera to stay the night refuses to take a suit of holy mithril armor as payment for lodging, explaining that it's worth far too much. Flare, confused, decides to make it worth less by punching it until it's crumpled and riddled with dents. After getting over her initial shock at the sheer stupidity of the gesture, she busts out laughing at Flare's sincerity and ends up exchanging it for 100 gold coins and some new clothes for the girls.
* InSeriesNickname: Flare's full name is "Valflare", but he prefers to go by "Flare".
* KindheartedSimpleton: Due to being a country bumpkin who never set foot outside of his village, Flare has a very straightforward personality and just wants to enjoy himself and explore the world he lives in. But his simple and carefree outlook on life means that he's undeniably kind, confident, and honest, exactly the type of person you'd want as a friend.

* KungFuWizard: In addition to his shamanistic spells, Flare is an excellent hand-to-hand combatant with CharlesAtlasSuperpower courtesy of his master's training despite the derision it got from his peers. His already impressive strength has been boosted to superhuman levels by the hellfire burning within his body, and using them together lets him harm even the angels who are said to be a higher existence than humanity.
* MulticoloredHair: Flare's mostly black hair has a streak of red going across his PeekABangs. Doubles as ElementalHair given his ability to control hellfire.
* MundaneUtility: Flare's SuperStrength makes him a force to be reckoned with, but also a capable HumanPackMule able to carry all of Primavera and Aishera's luggage without a problem.
* MusclesAreMeaningful: Flare is ripped to kingdom come and is strong enough to beat multiple people senseless with his bare hands even while they're flinging magic at him. After emerging from Hell, his strength is enhanced to the point that a huge sack full of supplies and even a suit of heavy armor feels like a backpack to him. He casually riddles a suit of treasured holy mithril armor from the White Pearl Kingdom full of dents with regular punches.
* MrFanservice: The second half of the first chapter has Flare entirely naked, showing off his muscular body until he puts some clothes on. Even then, the first set of clothes he pilfers leaves him a WalkingShirtlessScene with his pecs and abs showing. His casual wear [[SleevesAreForWimps shows off his arms]] and clings tightly to his chest to leave little to the imagination.

* NewLifeInAnotherWorldBonus: After coming BackFromTheDead from his trip to Hell, Flare discovers that the flames of Hell have been concentrated within his body. These flames are so hot that they can instantly liquify metal and reduce underbrush to ash. In addition, his new body is even stronger than his original CharlesAtlasSuperpower, making him a LightningBruiser who can go toe-to-toe even with the angels that have a stranglehold on humanity.
* OffhandBackhand: Flare reflexively fights the thieves after Primavera and Aishera while trying to ask for directions. He ends up sucker punching one of them while explaining that he doesn't want to fight, before delivering a back kick to another thief creeping up on him while trying to explain himself.

* PaperTalisman: Flare uses his shaman magic through these, transforming them into snake-like arrows for navigation, magical shackles for resistance training, or chains to bind others with. He also mentions being able to use them to give others diarrhea, hemorrhoids, migraines, and fevers.

* PeekABangs: Flare's dark hair is draped over one eye, though his cheerful and outgoing personality is the opposite of the typical associations with this hairstyle.

* ThePollyanna: Flare is a relentlessly cheerful because he was never meant to amount to anything anyway, so he might as well be thankful for every moment he's given even after he becomes the designated sacrifice to the Gates of Hell. This belief of his is only strengthened when he quenches the flames of Hell and lives to tell of it. He's so cheerful that he initially wonders if he was a heartless bastard for not feeling much grief after discovering that his village was wiped out. But after learning just how much his master cared about him, Flare resolves to live every day of his second life to the fullest as a way to keep his master's memory alive.
* PsychoLesbian: Aishera is clearly into Primavera to an uncomfortable extent, trying to kill Flare under the pretense of protecting Primavera and cursing about being deprived of her alone time with her. She also salivates at the thought of Primavera's body and has a gushing {{Nosebleed}} along with it.
* RapidFireFisticuffs: Flare tosses Aishera's armor into the air before rapidly punching it to crumple it and fill it with dents to lower its value in hopes that he could give it to the old lady as payment for letting them stay at her home.
* RealMenCanCook: Flare, a muscular and powerful martial artist and shaman, mentions that he did all the cooking for his master despite being under his care.
* RedIsHeroic: Flare's red eyes, red streak of hair, and brightly red jacket all point to his role as TheHero, not to mention the blazing red flames he produces.

* SkilledButNaive: Flare is a skilled martial artist and shaman with SuperStrength and the ability to control the fires of Hell, but he's also naïve and a country bumpkin who he's never set foot outside of his village until the events of the story. Because of this, he often fails to read the room (jumping out of a bush while completely naked to ask for directions) is completely oblivious to why Primavera and Aishera would be mad at him for taking off their clothes in their sleep. This is compounded by him being a FishOutOfTemporalWater, as he has little understanding of currency and doesn't have the common sense to realize that most stores would be closed in the dead of night.

* SleevesAreForWimps: Flare's casual wear includes a sleeveless strapped shirt that shows off his muscular arms and clings tightly to his chest to show off his pecs as well as the outline of his abs.

* StevenUlyssesPerhero: ''Flare'' gains the ability to control {{hellfire}} at will. The kanji for his name even contains two characters for fire.
* StockShonenHero: Flare is a cheerful, friendly, somewhat simple-minded guy with a big heart and incredible strength due to his own training and his hellfire-enhanced body.

* TemptingFate: Primavera tries to brush off concerns about being attacked by an angel, noting that they rarely actually take up requests for aid. Unfortunately, Zuriel is the one who reads the petition to kill her and dispatches Mosie to do the deed.
* TragicKeepsake: The magical clothes Flare's master left for Flare are the last memento he has of his surrogate father and teacher after the Shamans were wiped out by the angels 1,000 years ago.
* UndyingLoyalty: Aishana is completely and utterly devoted to Primavera, though it's at least partially because of her obsesive BodyguardCrush on her.
* TheWorldIsJustAwesome: Having never left the confines of his village until now, Flare is eager to learn about the world he lives in. Arriving in a bustling city for the first time has him in awe like a kid in a candy store, and he can't wait to learn what an ocean is. Flare is also happy to eat bread from a local bakery and likes it so much that he has no problems eating it off the floor.
-->'''Flare:''' The further we go, the more new things I can see! This is so exciting! I can't wait for more!

* SkilledButNaive: Flare is a skilled martial artist and shaman with SuperStrength and the ability to control the fires of Hell, but he's also naïve and a country bumpkin as he's never set foot outside of his village until the events of the story. Because of this, he often fails to read the room (jumping out of a bush while completely naked to ask for directions) is completely oblivious to why Primavera and Aishera would be mad at him for taking off their clothes in their sleep. This is compounded by him being a FishOutOfTemporalWater, as he has no frame of reference for the value of money in the present day.

* OurAngelsAreDifferent: Much like how they're depicted in Christianity, angels are {{Winged Humanoid}}s who have halos and descended to the world. That's where the similarities end. Angels in this story are consistently depicted as sadistic, psychopathic monsters who think nothing of killing an "inferior race" like humans, keeping all seven kingdoms essentially at gunpoint and only acting in favor of an individual or organization if they feel like it. Every single one of them is a PersonOfMassDestruction willing to wipe entire civilizations off the map.

* TragicKeepsake: The magical clothes Flare's master left for Flare are the last memento he has of his surrogate father and teacher after the Shamans were wiped out by the angels 1,000 years ago.

* BadPowersGoodPeople: Flare's body has been infused with all the fires of Hell, letting him scorch nearly anything with flames so hot that they'll even burn someone's soul. Luckily, Flare is a big-hearted guy who'd much rather use them to protect others.

* ChurchOfEvil: The angels are headquartered in their own Church of Angels, where they essentially act as a paramilitary corporation taking requests to murder humans in exchange for favor.
