| This episode i say had it all. I cried so much! This is seriously the best episode yet. It had a few good revealings too, though i already played through the game so not much of a surprise to me. But anyway OMFG GO Akasaka! |
 My dear weak spacenoids. THAT LEVEL OF LOVE CAN'T BREAK MY BODY OF STEEL! |
| Episode 22: As expected, this was quite the fast paced episode --- always on the move, though you can understand why when After everything that happened in this episode, the big surprise for me happened after the ED. |
| That yamainu squad captain guy got the crap beat out of him XD 6 punches to the face then a spinning back heel kick into the windshield of the van. PWNT |
| "A ray of Hope....a vague Wish...can only spark from Despair. -C.C.- Code Geass Hangyaku no Lelouch |
| well, well 100% pwnage from Akasaka. This is getting too interesting I can't wait for the next one!!!! |
     |

| Akasaka was superb. Nominated for SaiGAR. Consolation prize for Shion and Kasai. |
| YES YES YES K1 and Mion / Satoshi and Shion FTW!! Good ending ftw! This ep was sooo awesome, I'm dying for the last two. |
| Basically, Akasaka pwns all, though he should've punched the guy through the windshield. Best episode yet |
| Once the ED rolled, I was in tears. Of joy! And after the ED... Anyway, that was the best episode of Higurashi Kai yet. And there's still two more to come. I need them now! No, wait! Once I see them, there will be no more! ARGH! |
| Whee, this is the best episode of the season so far except for when Takano kills them all, lol. Finally, finally, finally, finally, finally Mion was so super adorable. I am so happy for Shion! Wheeeeeee. I can't wait for the last two, wah. |
| Usotsuki. |
| Akasaka just opened a can of whip ass. Christ. Almost GARlike. Almost. |
| Akasaka is just awesome! Man that guy(Phoenix 1) deserved that and more. Need more people who can kick ass like that |
 The Red Truth is the only truth in the world |
Hokuto no Ken in my Higurashi XD: |
 |
| Omg what an amazing episode! XD |
  |
| Now that was a real punch, it should've taking that captains head off!!! I was so devastated until akasaka shows up i thought it was all over! What a hero! |
Ah cheese, the devil's play thing. |
| ZOMGGG!!! the greatest episode everrr. it was a long time sicne i was so fascinated about a eipsode like this i really thought omg she will died, because in higurashi a happy story twist never happe lol. but then akasaka woah now i am really looking forward to the ending |
 |
| Great? Best episode? I love Higurashi to death (ha!) but I've never seen an episode before this one that felt so forced. A lot of the events felt rather shallow compared to other Kai episodes. It was still good but nothing great. However, I'm looking forward to more. |

| Akashaka is the shit!!!!! OMG imba episode i loved it!!!1 Shion + Shatoshi Mion + keichi I wonder about Rena :( Anyways cant w8 for next 1... Hope Takanos dies in pain every1 survives and we also see the future 10 years latter or something.... |
 |
| Haha; indeed: Great episode? Or GREATEST episode? When the credits rolled, I was like "What, it's over?!" For all the Higurashi episodes, time just flies by -- it's so much fun. Akasaka is inhuman. o.o I want to know what kind of training he had for that much strength; it was almost silly how strong he was. As if Hanyuu murmured a little spell for him. And she slapped Rika. zomg. |
 Visit Borderline Hikikomori and the International Saimoe League! |
| Awesome episode. On part with ep. 5 and 13. Crisu said: Akasaka is inhuman. o.o I want to know what kind of training he had for that much strength; it was almost silly how strong he was. Considering that Akasaka's been training for five years (since he first met Rika in Himatsubushi-hen), I'd say it makes perfect sense. Especially since the motivation for his training was to become more useful so he can save Rika. |
 |
| Akasaka-san is my hero. Say Akasaka-san 10 times fast out loud nippa~ I like how Rika is determined to grow taller and have bigger breasts *nosebleed* |

Crisu said: When the credits rolled, I was like "What, it's over?!" For all the Higurashi episodes, time just flies by -- it's so much fun. I thought the exact same thing. This episode was so fast paced compared to the others, but it's a nice change. Akasaka was godly, maybe more so than Hanyuu ^_^ |
 |
| Akasaka opening a can of whoopass on the Yamainu, was the greatest thing ever. Lets hope that Rika can finally grow up and grow some breasts XD |
 |
| agreement with everyone here. Akasaka rocked! |
 |
| Well we finally know that Satoshi is not dead and Shion and him will probably meet ^^ Oh and Akasaka is jus awesome! OMG! You could say he's not even human xD This episode was amazing! Can't wait for the rest ^^ |
I'll be nicer if you give me chocolate and bishies ^^ |
| Best episode of the season bar none. Hanyuu taking the upper hand in her relationship with Rika-chama, Satoko's nee-nee, Akasaka pwnage, but best of all, Shion's "chance from god". I did cry a little when Rika said she's going to get taller and grow breasts... they can't stay lolis forever ^_^" Anyway, amazing episode and more proof of what an amazing show it is. This series overall (both seasons combined) has a very strong chance of becoming one of my Top 5. |
| My first novel, Kardia has been published! Click here to read! |
| Akasaka? More like Bruce Lee! |
| Akasaka taking the punch and exclaming "weak" was gold. |
 |
| wow, another awesome episode, cordiality of higurashi akasaka and his super martial art techniques were awesome, he so pwned the whole yamainu, and i bet he became cooler (yes even cooler) than before. hanyuu is really getting a better personality, but i want to hear her auuauuu more other than in the preview xD. rika was cute when she said she wanted to grow and have larger breasts... and shion revealinig mion's feelings for keiichi (which were obvious for us) was the pwnage of the episode. keiichi blushing ftw xD cant wait for more higurashi goodness |
     |
| Akasaka got blessed by Oyashiro-sama or something >.>? He was overpowered like shit. Loved the episode, can't wait for the last ones... and I got Kai from 1 'til 22 in 3 days... |
     |
| What I loved was... how Shion told Keiichi she didn't want to waste time teaching her how to use his gun AND they asked Akasaka if he can use rifles and he said no.. SO FINALLY!! I think they will FINALLY get into Keiichi and his GUNS??? I want to know SOMETHING about him shooting little children, seriously. -.- Also. I made an Akasaka fan club a few days ago after I sawt his, haha. I always loved him, but this was it for me. ALSO! http://myanimelist.net/clubs.php?cid=1673 ... Also.. he looks so much like Keiichi in his younger picture that it's scary - http://myanimelist.net/character.php?id=7183 |
| Usotsuki. |
| Akasaka was too overpowered :( |
| Akasaka was the star of this episode. I never expected him to be so strong or so damn awesome! He just seemed like a regular police dude, but not anymore. |
 |
| i love rika's reason for wanting to live past june lol i mean besides the obvious i.e. not being gutted alive and watching friends murdered numerous times by each other, that aside she was to wear a bra and reach the top self at the market lol awesome |
 |
| This episode kicked ass, literally. Less talk, more action. It was a little far-fetched, but at least everyone is alive. XD |
 |
| Zomg! pwnesome ep xD Wow GO Akasaka GO! That man is Terminator I'm telling you! Nippa ^^ Rika is so cute!! Oh man I need to see more! |
     |
| Woot yeah! Akasaka is my hero! ^-^ |
 |
| Is it just for me or animation quality really dropped? Weird body proportions, strange physics, etc. Damn, this anime goes for "OMG, ze happy end". That's so not like higurashi. And now they protrayed them all as super heroes or something. At least they could have killed few badguys or something... Next episode is called bloody battle, so I hope it will really be bloody. |

| LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL is my review over this episode. It did not make any sense at all towards the end XD. So, the yaimanu got close to Shion and that other guy im presuming with their guns, wacked Shion and that other guy or something unconcious... This makes sense. BUT Akasaka pops up from his disguise and saves Rika and his ass by bashing the crap out of the yaimanu with out of nowhere martial arts super power (with LOL animation by the way, i was laughing so hard) managing to make all of them, up to 30 yaimanu might i add as Rika said, which were supposedly also armed with guns, run away scared shitless from Akasaka's super special awesome martial arts??? Whatever, *onto next ep!~ |

| i wanted to see batman sound effects like bang, pow ,pang !!! by far the worst episode of the series !! Its episodes like this that made higurashi lose its status.(atleast in my eyes).I knew that evryone must survive in the last arc but make it like this.... what they were thinking ????!?!? At least the last episode wasnt so bad. |
 |
| Akasaka destroyed with his martial arts skills, but weren't the Yaimanu supposed to have guns? Oh well, whatever works, also it seems Satoshi is alive making me wonder who was the blonde in the trash bag in the beginning of that one episode in the first series. |
   #NBHNC |
| lol didnt thought that akasaka is so strong~ nice~ xd |
   |
| One of the worst episodes yet. Shion appears on the scene all of a sudden and she just takes it al for granted? Random police officer takes out an army of Yamainu with a punch and a kick? Miracles? Don't give me that shit. The ending better make up for this. |
 |
| Akasaka kicked ass! XD that scene was awesome! XD he went street fighter back there. lol. XD waaaahhh. only 2 more episodes to go. XD |
| AKASAKA YOU CRAZY SON OF A BITCH!!!!!! |
