We've carefully selected 10 of the many charms of Enma Ai, the main character of the Hell Girl series! Whether you're a fan of Ai or don't know her yet, we hope you'll take this opportunity to learn more about her charms!
What is Hell Girl?
The first season of the anime aired in 2005, and its dark yet profound content gained popularity. As of 2018, four seasons have aired.
Who is Enma Ai?
The protagonist of the Hell Girl series, a petite girl with the appearance of a junior high or high school student, who carries out requests from Hell Communications. She usually lives with her grandmother in a remote house called Twilight Village. She is usually referred to as Hell Girl by her clients and other people. Her voice actress is Mamiko Noto.
Charm #1: Her Appearance
First and foremost, her appearance is undeniably striking. She has a cute appearance, long black hair, and red eyes. Her figure is slender, even a little too thin. She usually wears a slightly older sailor uniform.
Charm #2: Atmosphere
I think the words mysterious and mystical really suit her. She's usually quiet and doesn't show much emotion, and she exudes a mysterious charm that makes it hard to tell what she's thinking.
Charm #3: Hidden Kindness
As seen in the previous season, she usually doesn't show her emotions, but when her fellow Straw Hats get into trouble, she will quietly support them from behind the scenes and encourage them to stay on the right path. When the Straw Hats make a move on her, she can also reveal her hidden anger.
Charm #4: Strength
Enma Ai, who has the ability to send people to Hell, is incredibly powerful as Hell Girl, sometimes even emitting pale blue flames. She possesses the strength to instantly kill opponents that the Three Straw Hats couldn't defeat, but she's surprisingly fragile when hit directly to the body (lol).
Charm #5: Gorgeous Beauty
This is something you only see occasionally, but her gestures of eating her favorite cherries and her captivating poses while bathing are so beautiful and voluptuous that, despite her seemingly young appearance, you'll be captivated once you see her.
Charm Number Six: Voice
As mentioned above, while she's usually very quiet, her fragile yet sad voice perfectly matches Ai's appearance and her voice, which also matches voice actress Noto's performance perfectly, makes for a wonderful voice.
Charm #7: Cold-Heartedness
He generally accepts requests regardless of the client's merits, and even if the grudge is unreasonable, he coldly states that it is the client's own fault. Although he may seem cold, and deep down he sometimes finds it painful, he tells himself that he is part of the system and carries out the request.
Charm #8: Popularity
While most people who know Hell Girl coldly describe her as awful, the Three Straw Hats have a deep trust in her and will follow her (as Aino calls her) no matter what. They were all originally picked up by Ai, and feel indebted to her for allowing them to live. This hidden kindness has earned them a deep trust, even though they are few in number.
Charm Number Nine: Cosplay
This side of her has been visible since the third season. She's shown off her playful side several times, from silly jokes during serious conversations in a serious atmosphere to cute cosplay outfits during the Hell Parade, once again capturing the hearts of fans (lol).
Charm Number Ten: Catchphrases
I think this is the most important point. After changing into traditional Japanese clothing for her exile in Hell, her final catchphrase is incredibly cool: "Pathetic, lost in the darkness..." followed by "Would you like to die for once?" is synonymous with this work and could even be said to be a symbol of Enma Ai. This scene can be seen in almost every episode, so be sure to enjoy its coolness!
