■ Characters

Poison Maiden (voiced by Manami Numakura)

A girl who steals your body after you end up in Hell. She comes off as having a tough attitude, but is actually quite emotional and easily moved to tears. She urges you to go to Heaven, saying, “Let’s go to Heaven and ask to for you to be returned to the world of the living!” However, she really just wants to go to ask to have her own wish granted.

Protagonist

—Boy

—Girl

The player character who decides to purify Hell with the Poison Maiden. Even after realizing the Poison Maiden’s intentions to take his body, he still cooperates with her to find out why he ended up in Hell.

Girl in Black (voiced by Yuki Kawakami)

A girl with two hearts in one body that you encounter in Hell. She is a rival aiming for Heaven like yourself, but has a cheerful and determined attitude, and will even help you out from time to time. She was touched by the circumstances and motivations of her partner, the White Poison Maiden, and offered to help with the purification of Hell. She is kind-hearted and somewhat of a simpleton.

White Poison Maiden (voiced by Mina Takagawa)

A Poison Maiden who shares a body with the Girl in Black. She adores the Girl in Black and refers to her as “My Lady,” helping her to achieve her goal of reaching Heaven. Since the Girl in Black has a naive personality, the White Poison Maiden’s behavior often comes off guardian-like. She is calm and expressionless, and therefore not very sociable.

■ Stickers

In Hell, “Higan Radio” will give you special stickers for each girl’s Hell that you successfully purify. It was announced that collecting five of these stickers, which are very valuable in this world, will allow you to go to Heaven. Each time you complete the purification of a girl’s Hell, a delivery person show up with a sticker.

■ Thoughtforms

As you collect poison, “Thoughtforms” that allow you to hear the girls’ voices will appear. By looking into a girl’s heart through a Thoughtform, you can get hints for purification in situations where you may be stuck.
