| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- It is said that this eposide is the last OVA of the series, seems like a good enough ending. A bun-heaired Hanyuu is more attractive than the young Rika. Tthe art is better than before,esp. background part. PS:Surprised to hear this ep aired on the net one month ahead of schedule. |
 |
| Yeah, It was released early Young Rika was adorable and I'm glad she returned back to her own time. Hanyuu with bun hair is really cute. 7/10 |
 |
| It's out early?!!! *runs off to watch* |
  |
| As usual, this OVA couldn't be more shit. |
flownzu said: Holy crap, why is it out so early...thought its coming the end of january 2012... You can watch it raw on pretty much every Japanese streaming site now or you can download it now since even the download is out raw. |
|
| Damn, it's out already? Time to watch. |
| Dont touch me I'm in despair. |
| Oh wow, I wasn't expecting this until *looks at airdate* January 25th, like everyone else. I'm amazed that it came out this early! Last episode, I'll watch it when it gets subbed. The third episode gave me some hope for this OVA, so this episode will either make or break it for me. |
| So... Is this episode going to take as long to sub as the last one? |
Zfish9 said: So... Is this episode going to take as long to sub as the last one? There probably won't be a subbed version until the BD comes out (Jan 25). Last time the wait was like two or so weeks after that...so I would say there should be subs by the end of February at the latest? |
| This OVA was a huge disappointment, must rewatch ni & kai now.... Don't get me wrong the fanservice was great but it just doesn't fit Higurashi... Nevertheless I did enjoy the OVAs. 7.5/10 |

| I have a feeling that no matter how good or bad this ends, I'm going to be left feeling empty.. Hanyuu's hair and little Rika look sooo cute! Can't wait until its subbed so I can actually understand what's going on more. |

| So, there still are no subs out? |
| I haven't found any subs of it yet. One site said they had subs, but the only player (i'm guessing) was Megavideo. |
Zfish9 said: I haven't found any subs of it yet. One site said they had subs, but the only player (i'm guessing) was Megavideo. CN&FR subs have been released as soon as the online version is aired. But I don't know if the sub groups are going to remake a subbed version with the official OVA... |
|
| Well, this ep was cute. But I hope they'd make more serious Higurashi if/when they make more :| |
 |
| So we got an episode with bun haired Hanyuu and an über cute eve more loli Rika. Still this episode was full with stupid fanservice. Still the best episode of these 4, which isn't saying much. Shitty OVA is shitty. Ep 1: Jack off material for fat otaku lolicon pervs. Ep 2: Jack off material for fat otaku lolicon pervs (Mahou Shoujo material) Ep 3: Comedy episode with bad comedy. Ep 4: Cute episode with Bun Hanyuu and loli loli Rika. I hate this OVA and If DEEN plans on releasing anything like this again, I'll fucking burn down their HQ. 3/10 1 point from EP 3 and 2 points from this episode. And this is still overrating this. I love Higurashi too much to give this worse. |
Kuroiichi said: Well, this ep was cute. But I hope they'd make more serious Higurashi if/when they make more :| this would be awesome, but i don't think there is any more material to animate so it is unlikely, i don't think they would do some serious, only filler 12 ep anime, and i don't even know what they would do i mean they sort of wrapped every thing up in Koro ni kai. any way that was a good episode, the cuteness and the nostalgia was the only things that really made this a good episode. i forgot how was it that Hanyuu became materialised? was it suddenly for unknown reasons in a new time line. young Rika was cute, those cheaks could kill haha. |

There's always this which hasn't been animated. And it should. |
| Decent mini-serie, good last episode to close all the saga. :) |
| Seriously, in all my life I've never seen a studio shitting all over a perfectly good franchise just for milking more otaku money. This series was just a disappointment under every angle. A pornographic video has more artistic value than this anime. 3/10 |
| So, what were people expecting, then? I get the feeling people fooled themselves into thinking this would be more of what made the original franchise so popular and ended up being seriously disappointed when it turned out not to be. Or maybe I should say, they couldn't adapt to the change that was happening before their eyes. I'll admit that I too watched it for the same reasons as the hardcore fans, but when it turned out to be something else, I cast off my expectations and decided to judge it at face value. And quite frankly, I think the vast majority of fans are making a much bigger deal out of this than (I think) they should. Either way, I enjoyed this little OVA series and I don't give a damn what others think of it. |

| i vote this the worst sequel yet to happen in anime. i didnt even like the oriignal higurashi's that much and this still felt like im being betrayed. ep 1- fap material for pedophiles and virgins, aka the worst of the worst ep 2 - repeat of ep 2 ep 3 - a comedy where not even a single joke is worth chuckling at cause the jojkes are either so horribly executed or have become so overused that its lost its little luster it had in the first place, only way youd find this funny is if you turned your common sense off ep 4 - was the best episode of this ova but its still unbearable, all this cutsy BS, like really what the hell is this. i couldnt care less if this wasnt gory or dark its just that this was so half assed this is only making an attempt to cater to the most stereotypical otoku, its not that "its like their not trying" it IS that they are not trying, face it people, this was made just to sucker what little luster the higurashi name alone still sells in order to make a quick buck off of chumps like you that will defend this crap, continue like the original 3 but dont even try to pretend like this was even remotely good. |

This show has nothing to like about it, it's just fucking loli fetishes and bad jokes. |
| I've yet to see the 4th ep of Kira anywhere, but I can say that no matter how good or bad it is, I won't bash the studios that produced it. I love Higurashi too much to say anything bad about it. |

Go to their website. |

This show has nothing to like about it, it's just fucking loli fetishes and bad jokes. I didn't think the jokes were that bad. Sure, most were done elsewhere before, but I honestly don't give a rat's ass about that. As long as they can entertain me with them, I'm fine with that. And I definitely don't mind the 'loli fetishes' you speak of. Certainly beats seeing two gigantic milk udders bounce around on the screen. So again, what is it you're missing in these OVAs? |

It's not missing anything; it's just plain fucking bad. Instead of adapting other arcs (like Onisarashi-hen), they go for god damn crappy ecchi. And it wasn't even hot. Damn them. |
NyanYandere said: it wasnt otu expectations, it just loli ecchi is the lowest of the low, its disgusting. i had no expectations and i still thought this was disappointing.I think people were expecting a bit too much of these specials... |

So you didn't get an orgasm when Rika was wiping the window with her ass? Oh dude, what's wrong with you? And yes I am being sarcastic. |
| it wasn't the bloody, gory, sadistic anime we all loved. but i definitely love all, or most, of the characters. and i generally like higurashi's funny side as well! the OVA wasn't amazing, but i'm glad it was here. very cute! c: |
| this was so...disappointing lol I just watched it because it was Higurashi (but at the same time it wasn't). Renasync said: I don't care what anyone says but I LOVED this episode. Damn, what a great way to end the series. You feeling alright? cuz there wasn't anything great in this :S |
 |
| Too much even-more-chibier Rika! Head asplodes. |

| Um... I was wondering what everyone meant by Rika having hamster cheeks.. now I know.. why couldn't they have drawn her regularly, just smaller with the blush stickers or whatever? Anyway... This ended on a good note. The ending seemed a little over the top, but I'm glad that it was. I'd hate to still be feeling like I want more out of this. On one more note: <----Awww! Hanyuu is even cuter than ever! Its a shame she hid her horns in her hair buns though. That was my favorite feature about her, aside from the laser-dot eyes she had formed only twice in the series. (and once in Kai's OP.) |
