Kyoufu Jigoku Shoujo

The synopsis might be a little misleading. I went in expecting a full-on violent, hate-ridden revenge story but that wasn't exactly what I got. And this is a good thing.

I grew fonder of the baby by the page, and her motivations shown in the synopsis differ a little from what they really are. You can feel sympathetic for this character regardless of her appearance.

The story is, as weird as it may sound, sweet. Amidst all the terrible things she experienced and did, the life she had to lead, and even having the concept of revenge in her mind, she kept her innocence and good nature throughout the story.

I think it's interesting to think about these aspects because we rarely empathize with the ugly or scary, but the author gave her so much innocence and sweetness, especially on the first half of the story, that it's really hard not to connect with her (she wasn't even as ugly in my eyes by the time I finished reading).

It's a remarkable story, surprisingly sweet and sad. Would recommend.

This is a truly unique manga. At first it seems like your typical horror manga, but near the end, it actually turns very sad. I really enjoyed reading this manga {and to be honest, I did cry a bit near the end}. Again, if you can't handle gore, then this still really isn't for you. But it is a very good manga, and I recommend it :3 This one is alot easier to find then most Hino Hideshi works.
