| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Nice episode, K1 once again shows his charisma and natural leadership. With the support of the Kimiyoshi and Sonozaki families behind them, the group finally gets the child welfare agency to listen to their request, but will that be enough if Satoko still denies the claims of abuse? Next up, Satoko's stuff is done and the bad guy finally reveals itself. |

| Can't wait for the next episode. |
 |
| DO NOT WATCH THE PREVIEW! I repeat: DO NOT WATCH THE FREAKING PREVIEW! You will be spoiled... guaranteed! I saw it, and I call it The Art of Spoiling a Series in 59 Seconds. Of course that only goes for people who don't know what's going to happen next. |

| I hate Satoko but I actually felt sorry for her at the end of the ep where she was getting abused by that uncle of hers. looking forward to the next ep |
     |
| I went crazy looking for this episode to stream. xD I think I checked Veoh and Crunchyroll every half hour to see if it was up...then had to endure the painfully crappy sound quality of Crunchyroll. But it was worth it~ Poor Satoko. ;-; I wanted to give Teppei a swift kick in the nuts for abusing Satoko like that. |
| Keichii is pretty brave to go against the Sonozaki grandma like that! If this was some other arc he'd have gotten messed up bad!! |
 |
| Dammit, waiting for the next episode is such a pain... especially for a series like this. >.< But I did love this episode. |
|
| xD Keiichi was totally awesome... Going up against the scary old lady... Can't wait for the next episode. :3 |
| That damn Uncle son of a b!tch... >_> Keiichi is still being an awesome character and I can't wait for the next episode. Rena was great, too. :D |

wait, did onibaba just threaten to split open keiichi's head with a cleaver?! that's one tough chick! |
| Lol, translations sure are different. But anyway, after going through all that stuff of season 1, that woman most probably has a lot of skeletons in her closet. Or in her well. In any case, better not mess with her ^^. ... more points for Keiichi. |

| Keiichi did just win at live~ :> but at the scene where mions/shions mother and the other person (just can't remember what his function is >_>') came to Keiichi and the rest and said onibaba would approve it. I'd thought for a second those two had murdered her to get the approval XD |

| Sigh, if only the first season was directed this well, this season follows the original games style perfectly, then, this show wouldnt have such a reputation as "battle lolis" in fact, i doubt it would be considered loli at all... well, we can hope for OVA remakes... xD |
     |
| Man, this whole Season at the moment is making Season 1 look like crap. And i gave the first season 10/10! Onibaba vs Keiichi. A great confrontation. |
| The confrontation between Onibaba and Keiichi was awesome, especially when Onibaba started threating to kill him and when Keiichi said Mion's dad looked like a mob boss and he replied with "I am a mob boss." Might this chapter have a happy ending after all? Probably not but I can't wait to see it anyway. |

| things are actually going the way Kei-chan wants it too. XD and Kei-chan and Onibaba are in good terms too. XP okay, onto the next episode. :D |
| I just want to be with Satoko's side this moment and comfort her. |
     |
| *hiss* That stupid b@st@rd of an uncle O_e That director looked like he was gonna cry or something xD.... but almost no blood yet.... even without that... it's quite interesting o__o What surprises me: All this is happening in less than two weeks. Poor Satoko T~T |
     Sig WILL change soon~ |
| Awh T_____T ! |
 |
| poooor Satokooooooooooooooooo (ToT) man the old lady is crazy lol |

| It was decent. I liked finally seeing the council and Sonozaki family show a little heart. It was annoying me though to see basically the whole town join together to help Satoko, but yet they don't just take the direct approach and ban Satoko's uncle from the village or something. |
| Oh god a cliffhanger. I'm still worried about Satoko.;_; I know that guy is more of an asshole than crazy, but still., anything is possible. Everything is going so well so far and I'm just tense and waiting for something to REALLY go wrong. This is only part of the way into this series and called MASSACRE and everything has gone wrong so far. Except for like the last few episodes of the last and something had to go mess them up as well. I'm scared. I'm scared. I want things to go good, and they feel so right. But my better part of me knows better and keeps telling me. Oh God what are you gonna do to my mind Higurashi?;_; *shakes* *shakes* *shakes* |
 Old avatar and sig retired for now. |
| So not only do we have the friends and school banding together, but now the whole town as well. ... I really will hate to see how things go wrong in this arc :( I'm guessing everything will be the fault of Satoko's bastard uncle ... Also, Mion and Shion's mother is pretty awesome. |
 [avatar from Tales of the Abyss] |
| Look at K go! Even the old hag's impressed with his awesomeness!! :D Satoko's uncle's a dick :/ Too bad for him he's the enemy of the Sonosaki family now! :P Shion's granny just got a better impression from me (Shion's mom too).

Of course that only goes for people who don't know what's going to happen next. I don't mind at all being spoiled by it ^^ Who will pass the chance of watching a little cute and amusing chibi theatre? ^^ So Rika is hundreds of years old... but she is a kid too? I wonder if she's the smartest pre-schooler in her class(the entire world for that matter) ;) |
| I'v about had it with this season It's so dry and all there is talking, It's driving me crazy! I want the confusing bloody murder back. I feel sorry for Satoko at the end thoe. |
 |
| Satoko should have ran away knowing that her uncle abuses her. Just because of protecting her nii nii's room she goes crazy and creates such a huge commotion in the village... whats worst is im so tired of listening to her screams. Its so annoying! Plz stand up for you own rights and do something and not cry cry cry! |

Plz stand up for you own rights and do something and not cry cry cry! She probably has the "parasite" sickness at a very unstable condition such that she need the drug each day. She has delusions, so she can't act rationally... |
bla bla bla The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.Niko-kun said: On MAL, everyone who has used the lame rating system becomes a critic and an intellectual by default, haven't you heard? |
| Very interesting ep. Even onibaba agreed to save Satoko. Things are really heated up! However, Hanyuu: "The bigger hope that you get, more dissappointment you get". Probably this arc isn't gonna end like u thought |
| so now he has the entire town behind him, including mion's grandmother, which is always good to have |
the only way to stop a gamer from playing is either: beat them, or wait until they get bored (though 2% percent suffer seizures  |
| Damn I hate Satoko's uncle, but Keiichi continues to show why he is awesome. |
| Keiichi sure has those cohones. And Onibaba sure has those connections. |
| Love the episode. This Anime just keeps getting better & that old woman in the Sonozaki Family is nuts. She needs to go away, :< |
     |
| Oooh the tension! Really pays off to have some higher up Yakuza friends supporting you (^_^) The series have derailed from the psychotic killings quite a bit now though I still love it, really wonder how this arc will end. |
| Satoko's uncle is a fu**ing idiot. We need some action, it's starting to get boring. |
 |
| nii nii |
| Keiichi would make a great political candidate lol. The past few eps have successfully riled me up! Hope this ends well. |
| wow, Sonozaki's family has such a power. but why do i have a feeling that it'll end bad ? |
| I finally got what is missing in this arc and why many people are complaining for the lack of blood and killings. Suspense. That's what's missing in this arc; there hasn't been nearly as much as in the first season. Suspense and thriller are what people are missing. |
| that unce has to DIE -_-...cmon onibaba lol |
Sayonara,papa! "Just how a mirror reflects you,people will also reflect your heart." ~Athena Glory,Aria "Whatever happens,happens" ~Spike Spiegel's thoughts on dying(Cowboy Bebop) |
| I dont really know why but i really enjoyed this episode. How depressed the chairman was after the mayor had called him ^^ But I almost had to cry when Satoko got hit by her uncle :/ So far this arc really works out great, and that is why the suspense is contantly rising. Every minute now I except now justification for the title of the arc, and that would be a massacre... ON to the next episode ! |
| I probably regret this post by now. |
| Wow...I actually didn't expect it to go this far....makes me wonder if something really is going to happen. |
| It really seems to change for real..... like i said..if this fails, i can't immagine how it would ever change in some other world.. |
| Whoa...Did Oryou actually do something NICE for once? Holy crap, now I can't ENTIRELY hate her. |
 |
| Wow , even the old hag is helping them , this version of Hinamizawa is totally on their side ! |
| Nice ep..But this isn't Higurashi.. |
 |
| Keiichi sure can give a nice speech. It was nice seeing that the council have a heart. Did Keiichi really say that? Baka! Holy shit.. Oryou gave them the ok. Lmao... that guy in the office crying. Satoko. =[ Wow.. Oryou has come to like Keiichi. I LIKE THIS WORLD! |
akromataof said: It is Higarushi. Season 1's horrible pacing and extreme elimination of scenes was what turned it into a loli-killing affair. But the Kai arcs of Higurashi are about defeating fate. The end of season1 showed this tendency.Nice ep..But this isn't Higurashi.. |
