The second cour got off to a heavy start. In episode 1, Kyoko was thrust into a different reality in which she was still living with her mother at the age of 26, trapped in a soul-crushing telesales job. The worst thing? Seeing Nube in a wheelchair, completely broken after the Byakko ghost destroyed him. It turned out to be a nightmare that Makurageshi, a yokai, had created.

Episode 2 dug into Nube's background with Minako-sensei. As a kid, Nueno was bullied because of the spirits that often possessed him. He was protected and treated like a typical child by Minako-sensei. She sacrificed herself to liberate him from demonic possession, and even when Nube got a chance to go back in time, he couldn't save her in Hell Teacher: Jigoku Sensei Nube Part 2 episode 8's timeline.

The tone was totally reversed in episode 3. Yukime shipped herself to Nube in a box while wearing a swimsuit. After being expelled by the Yamagami, she decided to live with him. She demonstrated she was more than comic relief when she raced into a burning building to save a child.

Episode 4 delivered terror with Kaijin A. He was a barber burned in a horrible joke who now stalks youngsters for revenge. He almost killed several of Nube's students, and even Nube struggled because Kaijin A lived somewhere between human and yokai.

Miki and the Daidara-bocchi were the main focus of episode five. After she kicked a building blocking sunlight, she started observing unusual changes in her surroundings. She later realised that the Daidara-bocchi was a beneficent creator god reordering things for the better.

Episode 6 became serious again. Katsuya came upon a Kirin, a celestial beast that evaluates humans according to their moral character, while fishing in a prohibited area. Nube acknowledged that he wasn't certain he could defeat it. Nube's Demon Hand was even harmed by the Kirin. In the preceding episodes of Hell Teacher: Jigoku Sensei Nube Part 2 episode 8, Katsuya was only saved because Chibi, the dog he had previously aided, showed that he wasn't entirely self-centered.


Episode 7 Featured Action and Comedy

One of the funniest episodes to date was the one from last week. Despite literally melting in the summer heat, Yukime was determined to make it to Nube. As she tried to chill off, she kept transforming into a snowman. Kyoko, certain that Yukime would abduct their teacher, followed her.

Nube was persuaded by the children to take them somewhere enjoyable. Yukime suggested a romantic date at a snow lodge with ice fishing and Northern Lights. Her suggestion of a frigid date was vehemently rejected by Nube. But Yukime persisted. She decided she needed a tan after witnessing Nube admiring tanned women at the beach.

Her body began to melt in her heat-absorbing black bikini. After pulling her into the shade, Nube doused her with water. But during the lead-up to Hell Teacher: Jigoku Sensei Nube Part 2 episode 8, Yukime changed and fled, freezing a huge chunk of the beach in the process.

When Nube discovered a Misaki, a nomadic spirit that draws humans under water, the humor ceased. With spectral hands, Misaki grabbed Kyoko and pulled her underwater. Nube couldn't swim there in time. In order to go to Kyoko, Yukime froze the ocean's surface and provided Nube with ice skates. When they got there, Yukime froze the place while Nube used a spirit bind on the Misaki. Yukime was exhausted from the rescue mission.

The group later served Yukime iced coffee, which unintentionally caused her skin to become tanned. Kyoko expressed gratitude to Yukime for saving her life. As a sign of their new friendship, Yukime, Kyoko, and Miki received matching Yukimarin keychains at the end of the episode.

Hell Teacher: Jigoku Sensei Nube Part 2 episode 8 is titled "The Yokai Shokera Looking Through the Window." Mamoru is a healthy, soccer-loving fifth grader in Ms. Ritsuko's class. Or at least he was until everything changed. He falls ill after spotting a ghastly shadow dancing on a rooftop.

Suspicious of what's happening, Mamoru turns to Nube for help in Hell Teacher: Jigoku Sensei Nube Part 2 episode 8. This earns Ms. Ritsuko's ire because she doesn't appreciate being bypassed. But Mamoru would rather depend on the seemingly unreliable Nube than trust conventional solutions. Ms. Ritsuko visits him in the hospital, and that's when she witnesses something truly terrifying.

The conflict between Nube and Ritsuko is what makes Hell Teacher: Jigoku Sensei Nube Part 2 episode 8 so captivating. Although she has never believed in supernatural explanations, all could change if she sees anything horrific in that hospital room. Ritsuko may finally realize the full scope of the danger Nube faces on a daily basis in Hell Teacher: Jigoku Sensei Nube Part 2 episode 8.

This season, the program has done a fantastic job at juggling a variety of tones. We've experienced real terror, romantic chaos, a tragic background, and psychological horror. Comedy and action at the beach were featured in Episode 7. Hell Teacher: Jigoku Sensei Nube Part 2 episode 8 takes us back into more sinister territory with a sick student and a yokai that has previously seriously harmed people.


In conclusion

On February 25, 2026, Hell Teacher: Jigoku Sensei Nube Part 2 episode 8 will air, and it looks like a really horrific episode. After the lighthearted beach adventure, going back to a student in genuine danger feels like the right move. Mamoru's situation seems dire, and the fact that even seeing this yokai made him sick suggests we're dealing with something extremely powerful. The Shokera episode could also be a turning point for Ms. Ritsuko's character if she sees what Nube deals with firsthand.
