Pay no attention to
the man behind the curtain -- Five-Minute Anime continues! Today we have not just a new fiver, but a whole new
kind of fiver. I've recently become a huge fan of
Jigoku Shoujo, a.k.a.
Hell Girl. It's a supernatural show with a fascinating premise that reminds me of
The Ring. The art and music are gorgeous. A box set of the first season with English dub recently came out, so I highly recommend taking a look.
That said, the show can be a little... formulaic. It's always worth watching, but the anthology format lends itself to repetition. How much repetition? This much repetition:
Five-Minute Hell Girl: any episode
(Yes, I know none of you have ever watched it. Indulge me. It's my birthday.)

scissors, which get around the whole "yanking on your follicles" problem.
