When Keiichi Maebara and his family move to the sleepy little rural village of Hinamizawa, everything seems peaceful and rustic at first. It is the first series in the When They Cry franchise, followed by Umineko: When They Cry and Ciconia: When They Cry. Higurashi: When They Cry (Japanese title: Higurashi no Naku Koro ni, which roughly translates to 'When the Cicadas Cry') is a series of eight Kinetic Novels/sound novels by 07th Expansion, released between 20 and later adapted into both an anime and a manga series.

I finished it this week recently, and I experienced every emotion ever and I'm going to cherish those feelings whenever I felt like rereading this vn series ever again. It's THE introduction to the answers you all need for the final 2 episodes of the answer arc. A heavily relatable character that struggles from mental illness and pain by a divorce.Įverything was glorious from the start to end from Rena's apology to Keiichi's speech about friendship, the psychological horror that sends chills down your spine when Rika finds Rena alone in the junkyard, the increasing tension of Rena's paranoia with a detail of her text color changing from a bright pink to a bright red to signify insanity, Keiichi's miracle of realizing the sins he committed in another world, and the confrontation of Rena in the school when she held them hostage is all played perfectly.

Rena's character was already amazing enough, but it turns her from great to the best. I couldn't think a Higurashi chapter would top everything else, but this chapter takes the cake.
