| I thought those men in the green suits worked for the Sonozaki family? If so then it makes sense why one of them is stalking Satoko since they hate the Houjou family. I wonder what 3 of them were doing at that place though. |
 |
| omg i would be so scared! Satako should call Keichii and hopefully hell come over with a golf club again! lol... but really poor Satako is trying everything she can but apparently she already tried that stuff... hmm it was so cute how Rika said she peed herself! what an amazing lie! hmm the whole thing was interesting... i love how they trimed the tins and Rika freaked out going they didnt do that before! YAY and then her hopes went down again =( lol i loved the club games they played! poor Keichii X3 hmm and its those guys again... i hope Satako can stop them! |
 |
| Poor Rika. =( |
| omg omg omg cliff hanger !!! |
| I'm starting to like Satoko! And I still wonder, who are the people from white van and what are they doing... |
| Lussuria Love ♥ |
| I really feel for Rika. And this is the first episode I've actually liked Satoko, I think. |
 |
| This episode nearly almost made me wanna shed a tear hearing Rika saying that she is afraid because she know what pain she will endure but it has happened before. Even though Satoko tried to help Rika already knew she will do that and still her "destiny" will still happen. Sad truly sad Mii Nippa!!  |
| 4 episodes in, and not a single murder scene? Somebody is going to get killed, very soon. |
| Some parts of this post may be exaggerated. |
| oh ... lets see who are those men who try to kill Rika and kill everyone intervene in this whole thing ... mm why they havent just kill both of Satuko and Rika from the first place ; it will be easy to do that instead to kill everyone intervene |
| Poor Rika and Satoko ;__; That man is creepy! As usual, this won't end well. |
| I love the serious Rika man!!! So the killing starts now... |
| Hopefully it picks up from here, the slower episodes aren't boring or anything, they just aren't as interesting as last seasons |
| okay so now it starts......... didn't want to comment on the previous episodes as it just felt like filler until the real stuff starting kicking off and hopefully this is where it starts... i do hope its as good as the first season, i haven't seen higurashi in so long, and the first season was just epic for me as it was just when i started watching anime, and I wanted to come back to the second season with more anime experience! |
| So am i the only one who would be okay with the a happy ending and no more pain for hinamizawa ? Rika's sadness and desperation is really getting me. And also , all you guys who keep asking for violence, SAVOR THE HAPPY MOMENTS, if this anime teaches us one thing , that's it :) |
| This season seems to be going a bit slower compared to the last one. Still I do trust something will change (perhaps there will be more gore this time). |

| It's the white van people man! What are they up to?!?!? |
| Well that escalated quickly. Got pretty intense there at the end:O |
 |
| 1. intensity is picking up. wonder what those white van people are up to. 2. the pace has been slow for the last 2 episodes. maybe that's y no english dub has been released. 6/10 |
| Those stalkers scare me. Seriously, Mion/Shion and Rena should trust Satoko a little more, their distrust somehow make no sense. Ugh, and so the killing begins, I mean, it's good that we're getting some more info about what's happening, and what is up with Rika, but everyone dying in every arc is kind of repetitive. It's still good though. |

| The change of type of emotion in this show is quite strong, we passed from a sick and extreme uneasiness to a more dramatic key, I can sense the impossibility of Rika on change things. Wonder who's that guy, and for whom that Van Mens work. Oh and I want so badly a happy ending, I'm full of them killing each other. |
| Want to know more about those Van guys, whom are they working for? And yeah, first time they used a gun. Like it wasn't the obvious choice. |

| That stalker guy seems like a Pedo, hopefully we'll know who he truly is. Also these episodes may be slow but I still want to see what happens. |
| "Nothing is sweeter than your smile" |
| This is getting more and more interesting, but the lack of violence kinda ruins it for me. |
Oh, pitiful shadow cloaked in darkness. Thy actions cause men pain and suffering. Thy hollow soul drowns in thy sins. How would you like to see what death is like? -Enma Ai |
| Man, it really seem inevitable... When she want to ask the doctor who really likes her, he dies by ''suicide'', when she ask the officer for help, he get killed by a mysterious group... At the same time, it makes me really curious that it was if I remember the same gorup that was accompaning the doctor when Keichi was killed in the first arc. But we als didn't knew what was his intention. He may not be related at all to the curse, just a victim. Satoko really is alone this time. Mion and Rena didn't believe her. But somehow, I believe that Keichi will be a joker. In all the arcs so far, he have been a turning point and they haven't shown him disregarding Satoko plea. I'm interested in who commissioning the murder. The only time we saw someone kill Rika, it was during Shion arc and Rika more killed herself than got murdered. |

| This arc hasn't been very good, but I think this last episode will really make up for it! That bonechilling pedo stare... Rika needs to quit hiding stuff from Satoko, they are practically soulmates and she still feels the need to hide stuff from her. That cliffhanger, gonna go watch the next episode right now! 4/5 |
| Does no-one else think that the suspense/mystery is the best part of this show? All I see are comments asking for blood. |
| not the best, but i have a feeling it will pick up here soon. i love rika & satako <3 |

| oooh next episode looks intense =o too bad i can't watch it right now... sighh |
 |
| Someone is stalking Satoko and its making her nuts, people can be so cruel |
 |
| Wow, I wasn't expecting those van people to just shoot that cop in the face, who are they working for I wonder? It's unlikely to be the 3 great families since their trying to kill Rika. Either way it seems like Rika and Satoko are fucked :/. |
 |
| Nice Episode . Now Finally, things are getting intense. |
 |
| It kind of feels like the first season kind of gave a lot of watchers the wrong idea of what Higurashi really is, it's not really so much about the bloodshed as it is the overall mystery. I dunno what really changed, but this season feels a lot more like the Higurashi I've read a bit of in the VN. Because of that, I like it a lot more. It could also be the change in POV to Rika changed the overall feel of the series too. Also, I think the first series really just blew through a lot of things. Particularly the first couple of arcs. |

| That was pretty tense. Rip Sakoto |
 |
| Wow this is getting intense! I guess Rika will die soon. |
 |
| It's only getting more confusing now, is Rika stuck in a timeloop or is this an alien experiment? Or is there an actual demon at work? Nobody knows. |
| Festival Day is here again, first half of the episode is having a fun eating competition... And we can see once again Rika-chan doing performance Watanagashi Ritual in this arc... (Again Studio Deen, why Rika-chan hair is Blue here???) Okay so we gotta see Rika-chan meeting Tomitake in the forest and she told him and Miyo would die tonight...(are they always meeting like this in other arc? I wonder) One thing that i'm forgot, are Dr. Irie always(i think so) suicide in every arc, why??? Also omg there are someone stalking Satoko and it was Creepy AF 😱 Who is this?? WTF |
 |
| Lmao. What the hell? I accidentally search to the website, and i am literally shock it was true. Omg oyashirosama.com xD. Anyway, these episode showed and brought back the typical Higurashi classic creepiness again. Currently the people that got paranoid was actually Satoko. Its followed the same timeline event like the third arc routes, which was mean? Yeah that vulcanic gas end. Actually, its not a true paranoia, these time, as happened at the third arc details. Its even led to the great disaster of Hinamizawa village, yeah, that thing! Damn, such a sad conditions. Even Rika/Oyashiro-sama just didn't gave a fuck and decided to let it pass like the third arc event again. And holy shit, that cop just completely stupid and generally dumb. His slow reaction just damn annoyed me. Oh, well, a plot convinience, eh? I understand. But why should Satoko felt that? Then, i just can't see the next episode shitty end, to be honestly. Lemme post-poned these arc until the next week xD .... Rika on these episode quite disturbing me so much with her whole giving up her fate situations. Like the fuck? You still had a possibility, Oyashiro-sama. Its really like rolling dice in the ground! But you already surrender? Instead of fighting, and told the truth, she let it happened again, and used Satoko as her shield against them. While herself didn't told to the others about the real problems. As the result, the whole trust issues would never reach them, and they just simply ignored the real situations. Sighed, facepalmed already .... She still didn't realized how to solved the problem, and didn't even had a motivation through the timelines. Even though she knew the key, yeah that phrase she told at the end of season one. Okay, for the plot sake again to hold on the real challenge into the very end. Okay, its an understandable situations. But, still, i can't survived against Satoko's riggors, dammit! |

| That stalker guy was creepy as shit. I think Satoko definitely has the shittiest life out of all of them except Rika of course. Nothing can beat the shit Rika has gone through, who knows how many times she has gone through these events already. That's why as we see here she's fed up with all the bullshit. She needs a hug :(( Though judging by that preview, I am not looking forward for what's to come for Satoko. On the other hand that whole oyashirosama.com thing was hilarious. |
 |
| Great to see that the intensity of this show is finally starting to pick up. Next episode looks like it will be a blast. |
| No matter what happens, Rika will die. Let's see if she actually lives in this one. |
