Tsugumi Shibata

Tsugumi Shibata is a young girl with brown hair and eyes. Hajime is her father and her mother died in a car crash. She is quite and independent girl, probally something that came about having grown up with her father always being very devoted to his work.

She has a strange connection to Enma meaning that she can sometimes see what Enma sees. This allows her to find out when someone is going to make a request for revenge. Along with Hajime they go to people seeking revenge and try and find out about the Jigoku Shouji and try and convince them not to send the person to hell.

Tsugumi is wrestling with doubt about whether is right or wrong that Enma provides this channel for revenge. In some cases the person receiving revenge is truly evil and deserves it but sometimes it is a little less clear cut. She misses her mother very much not having a strong woman figure in her life.

When she makes a connection to Enma she goes into a strange trance, her pupils shrinking and repeating the words that Enma is saying. This sometimes surprises people if it happens in public but in many cases it occurs when she is with her father who looks after her.
