Hell Teacher Nube/Tear Jerker

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Hell Teacher Nube has the episode with Hiroshi's Missing Mom being reincarnated in a kindergarten girl, Reiko-chan. The last part of the episode is pure tearjerking of the highest quality in the whole series: ( Hiroshi rejects his "mom" and runs away since she's treating him like a baby despite being in the body of Reiko-chan, who is as much five years old. His girlfriend Kyouko finds the runaway guy and convinces him to return... yet they find out that Nube had to exorcise Mrs. Tachida's soul from her reincarnation as Reiko-chan, so the child wouldn't be unfairly burdened with memories of her past life. Hiroshi falls to his knees and breaks down in tears, but then Reiko-chan channels Mrs. Tachida's soul one last time so she can say goodbye to Hiroshi and let him know she'll be okay in Heaven. When it's all resolved, Reiko-chan's mom comes for her daughter and they go home... and Reiko-chan (who's supposed to not have any memories of this) swears she'll find herself a husband just like Hiroshi, who hears this and smiles).
