Have you ever seen an Anime that make you feel fun at first, but scared in the middle, and sad in the end of every mini stories?
If yes, I guess you’re talking about Oyashirosama, also known as Higurashi.
The main characters are all cute and cheerful girls from different age group(Except Keiichi, the only guy.)
And every story starts with something cheerful and fun watching it, but if that’s all of Higurashi, then it would never catch so many eyes.
Every friend of you, could be the most dangerous person, but in the end, the one being dangerous, is you.
Rika, Mio & Satoko, the only three who did not get Lv5, the disease causes a person to feel dangered.
Rika & Hanyuu, no one knows how many rounds of the same thing they’ve gone through, Rika, seeing her friends killing each other, and always being kill at last, doesn’t get the answer herself too.
The Anime starts with a Doujin soft visual novel, bad graphic, but cool storyline, all done by a group of people, their name is 07th Expansion.
Because of the graphic, it didn’t sell well at the start of the publish, but it’s storyline had attracted many people.
And when the Anime came out, it created a huge wave of “Cleaver Girl”, which refer to Rena, who is well-known for her huge cleaver.
But the storyline confused many people, but when the second season came out, everything’s clear, nowadays, whenever a person ask about why is the story messed up, every one will just say, “Just continue watching!” LOL
Anyway, the Sai-Moe competition last year, Rika from Higurashi won with the most number of votes.
Many moaned for their favorite characters, but Higurashi fans cheered, well who can beat the “Ippa~” & “~Nano desu~” of her?
Not long after the second season, news of a Live-Action Movie came out, the cast wasn’t that good in the fans opinion, but the theme song, [Wheel Of Fortune] was sure just as good as the Anime’s, it was sang by Shimamiya Eiko, she sang both the OP of Higurashi’s Anime.
Around May, the Movie came out in Japan, containing Onikakushi-hen of the original story.
And not long later, the news of the next movie came out, and right after that, the news of third season OVA of the Anime came out as well.
This shows that Higurashi’s fever has been there for a long time, and isn’t over yet, let’s seat back and watch, how Higurashi became the real LV5.
Oh yes, let me show you the comparison of all the character through out the years and all the games, original, and live
