Here, Hanamizawa Village, which locates on the rim of XX prefecture, is a small village whose popularion is less than 2,000. However, "it" repeats every year.
Every year, on the fixed day of Jun, one person dies and one person disappears. It is a death chain from the fight related to a big dam construction plan. The incident that was hidden in the middle of Showa revives.
Hinamizawa Village Consecutive Unnatural Murders (1979 ~ 1983).
It is whether a plot or an accident...or a curse?
The person who’s supposed to be there doesn’t exist.
The person who must not be there does exit.
The person whom you met last night doesn’t exit.
The person who is there doesn’t live.
The tragedy is inevitable? You can do nothing but succumb to it?
However, do not submit yourself to the tragedy.
It is only you that can face it.
I suggest you watch this Anime...if you are not easily scared or paranoid about a lot of things.
This anime is scary if you think about it...try to find it, it has a lot of blood and gore and the anime looks so innocent, but I promise you it's not. Watch It and post your thoughts!

My latest tribute to Higurashi. "Rika's Last World"
SPOILERS ALERT FOR KAI
I've just finished watching Kai, and I've gotta say, it's the best anime I've ever seen.
I especially love how confusing it all is in the first season, and how they left behind clues in each separate arc, which all weaved into one, conclusive and satisfying ending by the end of Kai.
The development in EVERY character is extremely significant, as they all have their own story to contribute.
The detailing in art style improved greatly in Kai, which is partly what caused the emotional scenes...
Spoiler:
to made me weep.
Higurashi no naku koro ni is a very well done storyline, no matter what the medium and I love it to bits.
Anyone know which of the games I should play? Are the games any good?
I can't decide on a favourite character. But if I had to make a list...
1) Rika, Hanyuu, Mamouru and Miyo
2) Keiichi, Mion, Ooishi
3) Satoshi, Rena
I hope people continue contributing to this forum!

) My favourites are Shion and Rika. And if you haven't already, watch Umineko no Naku Koro ni! It's great. I watched it after finishing Higurashi, and that is better because you understand the 'format' better.

I've watched the opening, and it seems like a much more civilized anime compared to Higurashi. (Comparing a village to a British mansion = doesn't work)
Just wondering, are the question arcs as bloody as Higurashi? I heard there are still murders involved.
Because that's what makes it all so thrilling.
Art contribution time!

Yup, it is bloody, maybe not as much, but it gets bloody a lot. And when it's not bloody, there is quite a good storyline. I was addicted to Higurashi because of it's storyline, but I was even more addicted to Umineko!

The ending is pretty good. Not great, but good (of course, this means it's outstanding in anime terms since the endings to most series/movies are garbage.) I do wish more of the questions were answered, though.
Spoiler: Whole series
Spoiler: More thoughts on the series
I'm not sure if I can say Higurashi is my favorite series ever, but it's definately in the top five.

Did I like it?
Sometimes, after a hard day, you just sit on computer wanting to see something ranom.
So why not to watch cute girls kill eachothers? Works.
The first season wasn't bad, but sometimes the plot just seemed to focus more on carnage than the actual plot.
Those moments were the only minus ones on the serie,
but in the end it all fit'd pretty well.
I must confess that I was kinda out for a moment after the episode where Keichi dies for first time and then everything is OK in the next episode.
After you see the cycle, you won't mind of this at all,
but the first time is the most confusing.
Eh...I don't really have talent to put my feelings into words, so: yeah, I like'd it.

Too much? Heck, it's like watching how Kenny dies over and over again :D
Thank god there's respawn, eh?
Hmm...Sounds like I need to check S2 soon, I guess.
EDIT: Okay, the S2E6 cleared SOOOOOOOOO many things, that it seems like it's finally having a plot :D

I ended up being very disappointed in Umineko.
Didn't enjoy it very much at all.
It was basically copied off Higurashi, except with a different setting and different characters.
The message in the bottle thing with Maria plaguerising off Keiichi was too much for me.
And the ending.
Seriously.
WTF.
*VERY dissatisfied*
I've heard that the visual novel is WAY better.
Though I'm very reluctant to try it out now that the anime's left such a bad impression on me.

I personally think that S2 is the best season of Higurashi.
Everything started going down hill from there.
Seriously, first ep of Rei and practically the WHOLE of Kira.
What.
The.
Hell.

You probably already know this from watching S2, but here's a brief explanation.
Keiichi's doppleganger? Here's a toughie.
And I'm not even sure if the explanation my friends and I came up with is valid.
Basically, Keiichi's friends KNEW that he had committed murder (killing Teppei)
and they wanted to pretend it NEVER HAPPENED.
So they ACTED as if Keiichi was at the festival the whole time.
Hence, all the contradictions and Keiichi's paranoia.
As for RENA.
The manga explains all, go read it. (IT'S SOOOO GOOD)
Mion, being the next head of the Sonozakis, had the power to tell lies and get away with them. (HELL YEAH)
She made up the fact that Rena Ryugu was in Gogura.
So that the police woudn't find her.
Rena, being extremely ill and paranoid at that point in time, assumed that there was another one of her.
...
There, that clear things up for ya?
