Animax Asia revealed on Sunday that it will air the Hell Girl: Fourth Twilight anime beginning on November 3. The show will air two episodes every Wednesday to Friday at 10:00 p.m. GMT +8.
Animax Asia describes the anime:
There is a website that is only accessible exactly at midnight. If you post a grudge there, the Hell Girl, Ai Enma, will appear and drag your hated foe into Hell. Although this sounds like nothing more than an urban myth, it turns out to be true. One day, the mysterious Michiru appears in front of Ai Enma. However, Michiru does not remember who she is or why she is here. Her secret past will soon be revealed…
The anime premiered in Japan on July 14.
Hiroshi Watanabe (Hell Girl: Two Mirrors scriptwriter, Hell Girl: Three Vessels director) was again credited for the original concept. Takahiro Ōmori, the director of the first Hell Girl anime as well as Hell Girl: Two Mirrors, returned to direct the anime at Studio DEEN. Mariko Oka, Kenichi Kanemaki, and Yasuharu Takanashi also returned for character designs, series composition, and music, respectively.
Studio DEEN debuted the first Hell Girl television anime series in 2005. The series received two subsequent television anime sequels in 2006 and 2008, as well as a live-action television series adaptation in 2006. The anime also received a manga adaptation by Miyuki Etoo, as well as two other manga adaptations named Shin Jigoku Shōjo (New Hell Girl) in 2009, and Jigoku Shōjo Enma Ai Selection Geki Kowa Story (Hell Girl: Enma Ai Selection, Super Scary Story) in 2014.
