Recap / Hell Girl S 3 E 6 My Teacher

Go To

Yuna Serizawa, a third-year student, holds a grudge on Ren, and tries sending him to Hell, but was rejected by Ai. Ai's companions assume this was because she loved him and her love had turned to hate. This only inflates Ren's ego but prompts Hone Onna to intervene.

However, it is revealed later that she views Ren as a rival as she was actually in love with Hone Onna and mistakes Ren as Onna's lover and a rival, due to the fact that they spent a lot of time together. Hone asks Yamawaro to cause Yuna to trip, which allowed Hone Onna to correct her misunderstanding of their relationship whilst offering a band-aid for her injured knee.

She shows up in school the next day with the same band-aid on her neck, flaunting it to her classmate who bears a similar affection for Hone Onna, Kira Moroboshi. Enraged, Moroboshi accesses the Hell Correspondence website typing in Serizawa's name, receiving Wanyūdō as a doll.

At school the next day, when Moroboshi finds her shoes thrown into in an unsanitary bucket by Serizawa, she lies blatantly that she was acting under Hone Onna's instructions, and she pulls the string. Serizawa is transported to a starting line, where Ai and her companions are getting ready to race. Ren appears as the host and explains that the prize for the competition is Hone Onna's love. Determined to win, she cheats her way through the competition, eliminating her competitors until she and Ai were left. During the climbing contest, she kicks Ai in the stomach, causing her to fall. She climbs her way to meet Hone Onna at the top. However, Hone Onna reveals her true skeletal form to her, shocking her deeply. Ai then appears to send her to Hell.

She is then seen on a boat to Hell rowed by Ai. Ai, however, expresses pain due to the kick, possibly due to the fact that she is using a human host to do her work. Kira is again seen with her friends with the tattoo near her collar. In an unexpected turn of events, however, she announces that she is no longer after Hone Onna but Wanyūdō, who is disguised as the school gardener, thus making her vengeance seem futile.

This episode contains examples of:

  • The Bully: Kira is set up to be one to Serizawa due to her viewing her as a threat to her chances to get with "Anna". Then Serizawa reveals herself to be an even bigger one.
  • Clingy Jealous Girl: Both Kira and Serizawa, who consider each other rivals for "Anna's" love.
  • Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: Serizawa, this episode's protagonist. She pretends to be a sweet, shy, soft-spoken girl, but is obsessively in love with "Anna," to the point of trying to send "Anna's" perceived lover to Hell so she can have her to herself. She also begins bullying Kira, who she sees as a rival for Anna's love and is sent to Hell for it.
  • Dragged Off to Hell: Serizawa is sent to Hell by Kira by the end of the episode.
  • Murder the Hypotenuse: Serizawa holds a grudge against Ichimokuren, as the science teacher "Ren", and attempts to send him to Hell because she believes he's in a relationship with Honne Onna, as the P.E. teacher, "Anna". This is Played for Laughs since the Hell Correspondence can't be used to curse Ai's companions, and Ichimokuren is bummed that the student was into Honne Onna instead of him. In her torture sequence, Serizawa also resorts to making Ai fall to her "death" while they are rope climbing a tower to win Honne Onna's love.
  • She's Not My Girlfriend: Honne Onna bluntly shoots down the idea that she and Ren are a couple once rumors start floating around that they're together.
