The perfect higurashi arc. Everything about it is so well done. the characters and the story was absolutely amazing. i love how they made keiichi and renas character in this chapter, it definitely gave them a lot of depth. it also nailed everything higurashi is about perfectly. Trust, Mystery, and Friendship. A great ending as well. The art is definitely also some of the best art the series has to offer yet. My only issue with this arc is how it serves more questions rather than answers.

Overall, the perfect higurashi arc. It could be better if it served more answers though. 9.5/10

Meakashi is one of my least favorite arc in Higurashi. Maybe its cause I already despised shion before Meakashi hen, so this chapter only made me hate her more. The story is great though. How we see Satoshi leave such an impact and seeing Shion struggling was depressing. How we see such a great misunderstanding was sad as well. I still despise Shion for doing so many awful things though, and i feel like they did a terrible job at making us feel sympathy for her. The art is great, i actually loved it! Shame its one of the least liked art styles for higu ... though. Characters were written well, well except Shion. Shion was the definition of a edgy character during that arc. At times, the writing was trying to be very deep and sad but it just failed miserably at some points it was laughable.

Overall, if you love/like Shion, you will love this Chapter. If you already didnt like her beforehand, you most likely will not like this chapter. 8/10

Himatsubushi is definitely the worst Higurashi arc. That doesnt mean its bad though. its decent, gives ooishi more character and makes him more likable, introduces us to akasaka, and shows us what happpened before higurashi. It does its job well. Story wise its also the weakest consideering its the shortest so no amazing writing could have popped up in the manga. Characters were great, young rika is so cute and i loved how they made ooishi more human. Art was okay, nothing quite special but it quite decent and great at times

Overall, Himatsubushi is a decent arc. its the weakest arc of all, though. 7/10

By far the best question arc. Not only does it serve the best questions, it also has the best story. The story had no boring points whatsoever, the slice of life was not dragged on, and was actually important to the story. Seeing Keiichi slowly going insane as more and more contradictions build up, while seeing Satoko in more pain each second, truly showed us how depressing Higurashi can be. Characters were great as well. I loved that Satoko got the spotlight for once, and i loved keiichis realism in this arc.

Overall, a very good experience for a Higurashi question arc. Most definitely recommended ... if you want one hell of a mystery manga. 4.5/5, 9/10

Watangashi is the sequel to the beloved Onikakushi. Does it stand up well?


Firstly, the story is definitely weaker, not only do the questions served in this chapter suck ass, but its also predictable at times, however it was also beautiful at times. Secondly, the art. Definitely a step up from Onikakushi, with its horror images even creeping me. Thirdly, and lastly the characters. Definitely the best part of Watangashi. Seeing how Mion struggles honestly made me feel really bad.


Overall, its a good sequel. It may be weaker than Onikakushi, but it definitely does its job well. 7.5/10, 4/5

The first part of a eight long chapter series, Onikakushi. Is it good? or not?

First off, The story is great. It does its job well, introducing you to Higurashis true natrue perfectly. How we see Keiichi going batshit insane after finding out what happened in Hinamizawa is great as well. Secondly, The art. It is okay, i guess. It could do a lot of polishing, but when it needs to do its job, it does it well. Thirdly, the characters. Definitely the best part of Higurashi, they really feel like natural real life people, like people you know before. Also helps with moments where youre ... meant to feel really sad for the characters.

Overall, a good starting point to Higurashi. it does its job well, so no harm in checking this out if you wanna peep Higurashi. 4/5, 8/10 (Also id recommend reading the vn, its way better. Manga is still a great adaption, though.)

Very charming manga. Some people forget that this is a comedy manga, meaning the characters personalities are swtiched. Thats all it got, though. Not the best, but it got a couple laughs out of me, its also batshit insane. Charming artstyle as well. Not very focused on story too, but that is obvious considering its meant to not be taken seriously. but hey, new content is always fine for a layton fan. now if only someone fan translates the layton book trilogy








Overall, its a okay humor manga, only recommended if youre into the layton franchise, and would die for new content. 6/10

Very solid installment. More video game movies should be exactly like this. While it is weaker than the usual Layton game, its great as a 1 hour and 30 minute movie. the fact they crammed such a great story in that short time span says a lot. Although, Descole was a weak antagonist, and i kinda wish they did more with Emmy, other than her just kicking peoples asses. Luke and Layton are a amazing duo as usual though, and the story was well presented, alongside with the superb ost. The artstyle also smoothed into anime quite well. I also loved the way they presented ... the puzzles into anime form. All in all, great video game movie, and more should be like this. You can tell a lot of heart went into this. 8.5/10
