Hell's Paradise Season 2 Episode 4 is going to be crazy. They are gonna have three enemy forces fighting at the same time in the new world of Shinsei-kyō. Chobi and Jo's relationship takes a very dark twist when we see what he's like with Jo's sister Réne. We're going to see a lot of bodies when we see a big fight between Shugen's Samurai and Gabimaru's Survivors.

Hell's Paradise Season 2 Episode 4 will air on Sunday, February 1, 2026, at 7:15 a.m. (PT) and 10:15 a.m. (ET) on Crunchyroll. The Shinobi will be getting closer to finding their rogue brother, and the Tensen are preparing for their final play. We have watched Jofoku go from a thousand-year nightmare to something much worse than immortality experiments.

Things are getting crazy after Episode 3, and we will see lots more changes with new people in the world of the show as the 2nd team comes into Shinsenkyo and could create even more problems for everyone involved in this bad situation.

In this case, the new Samurai leader, Yamada Asaemon Shugen, is probably going to cause more problems for the other team than they thought possible. He is also the second in command of the Yamada clan and is going to make it really hard for Gabimaru's group, amongst others.

In Hell's Paradise Season 2 Episode 4, we can expect to meet Jikka, who ranks third amongst the Asaemon and Kiyomaru, an unranked member as a young boy. Their introduction will bring even more conflict between the various expeditions.

Gabimaru's training in Tao manipulation has progressed as he has discovered a possible way to defeat the Tensen through energy reflection of their own attacks. In Hell's Paradise Season 2 Episode 4, we will probably see Gabimaru work on perfecting his technique, plus increasing skill will be an essential part of his impending survival.

The island's secret was revealed in the third episode, and May revealed she is one of the Tensen, a reveal that is shocking to say the least. Chobe fought against Rien, and despite using his transformed powers, he was defeated. Even with the flower's influence, Chobe remained conscious throughout the fight, which interested Rien and made her want to study Chobe more.

Fuchi figured out that May's true identity was Jofuku's first student. May revealed that she and Rien had both been trained by Jofuku to be warriors. The Tensen were genetically created through experiments that combined both the plant and human Tao.

Gabimaru was learning Tao techniques and using these to block and reflect attacks from his attack partners, who were four warriors in total. He was taught by Shion about the different Tao elements, too. He had an idea that this could be a way to defeat the Tensen. Toma thought that he was too weak and begged Tama to train him. He cut his hair as a symbol of his commitment. He wanted to be strong enough to save Chobe.

May has used Hoko's power source to self-heal. Hoko gave his life for her. He cared for her like a child for hundreds of years. After consuming his life force, she became an infant once again.

The end credits show new visitors arriving at the island. Samurai and shinobi warriors have arrived by boat. May senses the strength of their power source from long distances. Hell's Paradise Season 2 Episode 4 will include this new threat.
