What to expect in Gokurakugai Chapter 20?
Gokurakugai Chapter 20 is likely to reveal the true extent of Utsuro's abilities, as well as what the capsule she swallowed is and its origins. Her obsession with killing Alma and making him hers may keep Alma from getting away, especially now that he has mentioned another woman’s name (Kanata) before the yandere woman.
As more about her intentions and what she truly desires from Alma are revealed, Tao's investigation into Utsuro and Alma’s whereabouts will continue. She will likely only reach the two towards the middle or the end of Gokurakugai Chapter 20. In the meantime, Tatsuomi may uncover more about Utsuro's connection to Yomi and the strange deaths that have occurred.

Gokurakugai Chapter 19 recap
Gokurakugai Chapter 19 is titled ‘Let’s Make A Suicide Pact,’ and begins as Tao is on the phone with Tatsuomi while driving away from Maki's apartment, where she discovered his corpse. Tatsuomi informs her that Alma and Utsuro, also known as Utsu, were spotted heading towards Coastal Park.
He tells her that Utsuro had been missing for a year, with only blood found in her apartment, leading people to believe she was dead. Tao suspects her involvement in Maki's death. Meanwhile, in Coastal Park, Utsuro viciously attacks Alma, stabbing him multiple times and severing his right hand.
Despite being severely injured, Alma resists her in Gokurakugai Chapter 19, causing Utsuro to express frustration and confusion. She notices a ring on Alma's necklace, identical to one she saw on Yomi’s hand once she was resurrected following numerous suicide attempts.
Utsuro snatches the ring from him, telling him not to cheat on her. Alma, clearly angered, transforms into his half-Maga form in response, severing both of Utsuro's hands and retrieving the ring. As he puts it on, he realizes that Utsuro is the Blood-Loss Death Maga, though Utsuro doesn’t like the word.
After a quick clash, Alma decapitates her, feeling squeamish about cutting a being that looks human. However, Utsuro is unfazed by the loss, as his headless body takes out and swallows a capsule. Her severed head regenerates with a black sclera similar to Alma’s left eye. Gokurakugai Chapter 19 ends as dozens of kitchen knives point at Alma.
