Parent Story

Jigoku Sensei Nube

Main characters

Meisuke Nueno80 fan favorites
External profile
Nube is a 25-year-old man with two jobs. First off, he's a powerful exorcist who deals with the affairs between humans and youkai in his adopted home in Doumori. Second, and just as importantly, he's the teacher of class 5-3 of Doumori Elementary, both guiding and protecting them from the spiritual encounters they face. Both jobs are equal and important to him in their own ways: he chooses to protect the innocent and punish the wicked, both human and youkai, focusing primarily on those still young and innocent enough to have the need of a guardian. He is well versed in exorcism tools, but his main weapon is the "Oni no te," a real oni that was sealed in Nube's left arm (in the anime, his arm is possessed; in the manga it's completely merged).

Miki Hosokawa6 fan favorites
External profile
Possibly the greatest troublemaker in Nube's class, Miki Hosokawa is known best for her big mouth, her vast spiritual knowledge...and her big bust! At the start, Miki was a mere tattletale, consistently chatting on and on about various rumors and such, especially if Nube was involved. But after a near-fatal encounter with a tattletale youkai, she begins to tone down her talking and starts focusing on more spiritual matters. Miki begins to do consistent research on various spirit and youkai manners, to the point where even her teacher came to her for things he may not know! While most of this is merely knowledge, she consistently looks for supernatural means to assist her, either for her rumor mill or to get rich quick. One of her most important spiritual developments was gaining the ability to become a rokurokubi, where she can spiritually stretch her head and neck to go undercover to anywhere she chooses. Extremely vain about her physicality, Miki prides in her growing buxom figure (she grows from a B-cup to an F-cup over the course of the series) and flaunts it whenever she can. Her name is an homage to a main heroine in another of the main Nube influences: Go Nagai's classic horror series Devilman. (Source: Wikipedia)
Kyouko Inaba4 fan favorites
External profile
The fiery-haired, fiery tempered female of Nuube's class, Kyouko Inaba is the student that trusts and even possibly likes the teacher the most. Her first encounter with him actually occurred several years earlier, when Nube (then a college student) saved Kyōko (then a little girl) from an inari spirit. (though it is suggested they may have met earlier in a past life) She is seen as one of the most caring characters, usually looking after the welfare of Nube and the rest of the class and showing an emotional attachment towards them whenever something happens to one she cares about. But while Kyouko appears cute and innocent at first, she can possess a violent temper that can drive her friends and even her teacher a tad crazy (though it does tone down later on). When Hiroshi joins the class, she can't stand the annoying boy, but slowly does develop hidden romantic feelings towards him as the series goes on. On the other hand, she consistently has a love/hate rivalry with the closest to a best friend that she has, Miki Hosokawa, usually over physical matters such as her flat chest, big butt, and Sailor Moon-esque pigtails. Her name is an homage to the female lead of Dokonjyou Gaeru. (where, not coincidentally, this Kyouko is also in love with a Hiroshi) (Source: Wikipedia)
Hiroshi Tateno3 fan favorites
External profile
He is the main male student character in the series and one of Nube's most active supporters. A transfer student who arrives in Doumori Elementary at the start of the manga, he is at first suspicious of his teacher's exorcism claims, but eventually comes around due to being saved from one spiritual problem after another. Typical of many young shounen leads in manga and anime, he is the courageous, heroic male of the class who is always standing up to fight against any obstacle, whether they be human or youkai or whether it makes sense or not. His favorite past-time is playing soccer for the school. Unfortunately, Hiroshi's downside is his own stupidity: he has some of the worst grades in Nube's class and once even set a record for having a hundred 0s in a row on his tests! This lack of brains both causes him to have outlandish comments on simple ideas and leads him to many of his youkai problems. He once even wet his pants after a ghost scared him in a restroom. His character's name is a tribute to the main male lead of Dokonjyou Gaeru, a classic '70s Weekly Shounen Jump series Shou and Okano used as an influence for "Nube." (Source: Wikipedia)
Katsuya Kimura1 fan favorites
External profile
The "juvenile delinquent" of the class, Katsuya Kimura acts much worse than he really is toward Nube and his other classmates. At the start of the series, Katsuya is consistently portrayed as a loner, either due to being misunderstood by his classmates, his own cowardice or from his delinquent behaviors such as smoking or stealing charity for a good cause. But as the series goes on, he slowly comes to grips with himself and joins in with Nube and his friends where he is one of the main members of the class. Katsuya is a huge pervert towards sexy females, an attribute that gets him into a huge idolization of Miki (though she sees treats him like her dog). He also finds himself consistently with the worst grades in class alongside both Hiroshi and Makoto. While a coward and a bad seed, he is amazingly also a loving, caring, and protective big brother toward his little sister, Manami. (Source: Wikipedia)
Makoto Kurita1 fan favorites
External profile
While the same age as all of his classmates, Makoto Kurita is perhaps the youngest in heart and spirit of class 5-3. At the start of the series, this bowl-haired boy finds himself the most emotional of the students, running and screaming away from any scary phenomenon. But with Nube's guidance and the assistance of his friends, he slowly learns to face his fears and grow up in certain ways. One of Makoto's greatest strengths is his kind and friendly nature, allowing him to try and remain cheerful in the face of both human and youkai threats; however, he remains the most childlike of Nube's students, both in stature (though he is small, he is constantly hoping for the day he will "grow up") and his love of kiddy past-times like keeping pets or watching sentai series. (His most favorite being Chou Kiken Sentai Kakukaku Ranger which is a slight parody in name of the series Ninja Sentai Kaku Ranger, but translates as Extremely Dangerous Sentai Nuclear Ranger.) While he also receives horrible grades like Hiroshi and Katsuya, he actually puts in effort to try to improve himself in any way possible. His name and the model for his character design are both inspired from the Kazuo Umezu manga series Makoto-chan. (Source: Wikipedia)
