When one of the dead tried talking his way out of getting punishment, the Great King Enma pointed his finger to the mirror laid out in Enma Palace's court. The "Johari Mirror" was in essence an ultra high performance security camera that displayed any deeds that the dead did in their lifetime. With his evil deeds laid out in front of him, the dead instantly gave up and admitted his sins. Enma's day was proceeding as normal but after he tried stretching his back, a jolting pain ran through his body.

Hakutaku and Momotaro decided to go along with the flow and joined Great King Enma's drinking party. Although King Enma intended to drink throughout the night, mentioning how it was a Japanese tradition, Hozuki quickly rejected the idea and allowed the rest of the Gokusotsu to go home before King Enma began boasting about his success story.

At the temporary Hell, where the fortunate souls lined up to go to heaven, Hozuki was preaching how they should thank the bereaved for their offerings. Karauri, staring at the sheer amount of offerings on the altar was then ordered by Hozuki to go assist the dinner party for the Ten Kings who passed the judgement for these souls. The Great King Enma indulged himself in an epic food binge, eating the sweets from the offerings and dinner party and at one point, he became so obese that he couldn't even pick up the pen he dropped on the floor.

To their surprise, Hozuki was also there wearing a demon mask and enjoying himself to the fullest. As the Bon Festival came and went, Enma-cho was back in business. Hozuki silenced the dead that was in his way and as if nothing had happened stated that the dead to be put on trial will be arriving late.
