Naoko then shockingly turns into a vengeful Onryō as well, despite her mother not feeding her evil spirits like she did Kayako, and kills her attacker. In all portrayals, no human ever attempts to fight back against Kayako physically, except for Jake Kimble who, very briefly, attempts to resist Kayako. The young boy attempts to get out of Kayako's grasp right before she breaks almost every bone in his body in "The Grudge 3". All except him are paralyzed by fear when she arrives. Her death is almost equal in both story lines, with the exception of showing or mentioning the use of the utility knife to slash her, which only appears in "Ju-on" due to American violence ratings. The scene of her crawling down the stairs, having her neck broken and being put in the attic are shown in the director's cut of "The Grudge", and parts of it are shown in the theatrical version. In the Japanese films, Kayako's death is similar to the film versions. However, in the novel, she is first beaten and slashed by Takeo, before he ties her to the bedpost while continuing to torture her, until she eventually dies. In "Ju-on" Kobayashi is claimed by Kayako during his visit to the house. As he watches her crawl down the stairs he backs up to the door which opens from behind him. She stands there, says his name, then comes down and gives him a kiss of death. When the angle changes Kayako is gone, Kobayashi is sitting there dead, and Toshio is still standing facing forward with a phone in his hand and his mouth open. In "The Grudge," Peter kills himself by throwing himself over his balcony in front of his wife. Takeo Saeki is found dead by hanging in "The Grudge," similar to a scene of the series' second respective films, where Kayako appears in the ceiling of a room and, with her hair, strangles and hangs a couple. In the Japanese version, he is killed by Kayako in a street at night, after killing Kobayashi's wife and unborn child. In the novel, he is killed when Kayako's ghost stabs him through the back with a knife. In the Japanese, Kayako is almost covered head to toe in blood, most notably in "," and she also has curly, broad hair in "Ju-on: The Grudge." But in "Ju-on: The Grudge 2," she has long straight hair as well as in "The Grudge".
