Nov. 2024

Install the 07th Mod, there's a couple of console only arcs you can play on this one, one of them (Miotsukushi PS2) is an alternate ending to the series, arguably even better than Matsuribayashi.

Sept. 2024

September 15th - Higurashi When They Cry: Himatsubushi - 9h 18m - (100%) - Beat the chapter, saw all the tips, including the after-cast party. Pros: Due to Himatsubushi's short length, it doesn't set up any of its own mysteries but builds upon the main overarching mystery of the game. But before I get to that, first some background. The flashback setting of the chapter was pulled off very well. It made sense why the case it covered wasn't mentioned in any prior chapters, which I originally worried would be an issue. Seeing the differences in Hinamizawa 6 years earlier is also quite the contrast compared to the rest of the chapters and interesting to see. The main plot twist that Rika knows what is going to happen beforehand including her death raises a lot of questions. Why didn't she try to prevent any of the events? Is she unable to for some reason? Why does she know what's going to happen? I think the most likely answer to the last question is that the link that Rika has to Oyashiro gives her some powers, such as being able to see into the future. The epilogue is much more shocking than I originally suspected. Not only was Rika trying to warn Akasake of his wife's death but also pleading him for help. It paints the rest of the story in a tragic light, that Rika was doing her best but that it didn't quite work out.

Aug. 2024

The final question arc. It's a short chapter, but just as good as the rest. I played with 07th mod patch as always for the best experience.

July 2024

This chapter is SO ****ING good bro I cannot describe. It takes place before the other chapters, and involves a new main character, Akasaka. AND LEMME TELL YOU, he has been my favorite character in the series so far. This chapter is much shorter compared to the previous chapters but I think is probably important overall to the story. Rika is also at the forefront so if you enjoy her, you'll enjoy this chapter. Akasaka is a "tame" character, but I find that his background, sense of morals, and just understanding of everything made me really enjoy this chapter. This marks the end of the "questions arc" and it is my favorite chapter I have experienced thus far! BUY NOW YES YES

Dec. 2023

Rika could blow up an entire building but if she went "Nipah" right after everyone would applaud. Me too
