It’s June, and the summer heat has arrived earlier than it does most years.
By day there are crickets, and by night there are cicadas.
We’re in Hinamizawa, a small village in the countryside.
There are fewer than two thousand people here. But every year, there is an event.
This event is a mysterious death.
On a certain day in June, someone dies, and someone else goes missing.
The series of deaths is connected to the upheaval surrounding the dam construction project.
A murder case that was covered up is being reenacted.
Is it a conspiracy? A coincidence? Or perhaps a curse?
Someone who was supposed to be there isn’t.
Someone who wasn’t supposed to be there is.
Someone who was alive last night is dead now.
And someone who is here right now isn’t alive.
So, there is no way to avert tragedy. There is no choice but to give up.
But don’t give up.
Only you can stand up to this.

I would go insane too!
Most elements bar the story and plot are common with the other Higurashi iterations. The focus is on the story itself, which is very well written, and artwork is secondary to the novel.
Decent music and sound effects that fits in with the story at hand.
No CGs, no voice acting, rough backgrounds, and the sprites of the characters themselves appear less often then just big plain wall of texts, often with not even background at all.
As for the story itself, this is where the novel excels at. Great story telling, deep character and story development that gets progressively darker and thrilling as it progresses, though it does require reading the sequels to be fully understood.
Overall, a great novel, if for the story alone.
Rating: 7/10.
one of the most horrifying depictions of child abuse I have ever read. the way my fucking stomach dropped during that tips screen showing domestic/family abuse statistics with satoko in the background, the music sting when it showed THAT particular statistic next to satoko's defeated and broken sprite. the ENTIRE scene where satoko breaks down sobbing and vomiting at lunch just from keiichi touching her head, and the way rena holds her and sobs apologetically for not being able to help her. fucking christ. I believe ryukishi07 or someone close to him has said that he used to do social work before he got into writing or publishing higurashi, and I 100% believe it. this was written by a man who has seen the depths of depravity, the worst of humanity and saw firsthand what it can do to a child forced to endure it.
the scene of mion, rena, and keiichi arguing and discussing what could be done to help satoko out of her situation is one of the most impressively voice acted scenes in higurashi as a whole, ESPECIALLY rena. hearing her tear into keiichi for his well-intentioned but horribly insensitive comments towards mion and her assumed ability to "save" satoko was both incredibly gratifying and mildly terrifying. it's clear how much this little group of friends care about each other, but at the same time they only have so much they can really do with the tools at their disposal. it's a sad, real commentary on the difficulties of getting people to actually listen and help and the state of child welfare at the time in japan (though sadly it still remains pretty relevant today).
So yknow I'd love to be able to give this chapter a perfect score but unfortunately we were introduced to a new character by the name of dr irie in tatarigoroshi. and in the chapter that otherwise teaches the subject of child abuse with the respect and gravitas it deserves, we have to listen to irie making weird-ass comments about wanting to marry satoko and have her as his maid. i get it, it was the early 2000's, it's meant to be comedic and we're supposed to sympathize with irie in the end because he too also wants to help save satoko from her abusive home life but it's kinda hard to do that when he spends the first third of his screentime being a total fucking creep. if it weren't for the fact that he has a pretty important role in the story going forward, I'd be happy to completely excise him from the whole thing and call it a day
it really does suck because the rest of this chapter is just so good. I was right there alongside keiichi seeing red when it was revealed that satoko's situation was not improving and nothing at all had been done to help her despite their efforts. and in spite of the circumstances, I was kind of rooting for him when he began to crack and decided to take matters into his own hands. I just wish that irie and his prior comments didn't exist and didn't risk undermining what is otherwise such a real and respectful depiction of abuse with satoko's story
9/10, best chapter of the question arcs by far! just make sure to ignore higurashi gou/sotsu to not retroactively ruin this chapter in particular
Okay, I know I said the last game would cement Higurashi as one of my favorite stories, but this game genuinely confirmed that. This might be my favorite one in the series overall (tied with a few other games later down the line!)
This one pivots our POV to some other characters who had previously seemed "one-note" almost on purpose. Tropey characters who you get attached to through Ryukishi's beautiful prose and the translators work as well!
Higurashi (the sound novels themselves) is really special because the horror doesn't come from flat-out gore or shock-value. It comes from a slow descent to madness that Ryukishi and co make you feel like you're living through. It brings you along with the main character's increasing paranoia and unrest, and described unpleasant things thoroughly without showing anything other than a photo-bashed background and some character sprites.
very good
Wanted a killing spree, got sadness.
Definitely the strangest one the first time you read it
This one really hits the feels. Also, Keiichi has more loose screws than usual.
Alright, this one got pretty real.
Not gonna lie if I heard dancers7 at a such a point in life I would've done the same
Satoko best girl
Keiichi at the end literally said "fk this whole village in particular" and everyone literally dies . Kino read 11/10
my fav arc, a good spooky read
Satoko best girl
another great higurashi game. This one made me really sad for satoko and the ending made me pretty sad. This one was very confusing and i felt alot of the same emotions of keiichi. very good addition and I liked it :)
Satoko crying is annoying af
The best thing I've read in a long time. Peak fiction. Absolutely recommend
DID WE FORGET ABOUT THE ARM????
May 1st - Higurashi When They Cry - Chapter 3: Tatarigoroshi - 20h 54m - (100%) - Beat the game, saw all of the tips and the after cast party.
Pros:
When I started Tatarigoroshi I was expecting it to follow the same formula as the previous two where the person who goes insane is the one who is the main focus of that chapter, in this case, Satoko. But the twist that it ends up being Keiichi himself is well done because don't see it coming and because it gives you a glimpse into the mental state that might've been affecting Rena and Mion in the previous chapters.
Where Tatarigoroshi truly elevates itself even further is the second half where it gets supernatural. Keiichi enters a parallel world/timeline where he didn't kill Teppei and he starts doubting his sanity. Then you have the segment where it seems that whoever Keiichi wishes to die ends up doing so afterwards. It's so baffling and I can't even begin to explain it, which is why it's so powerful from a storytelling perspective. I want to know what the cause was and keep reading.
Higurashi chapter 3 continues to be a delightful experience to watch unravel.
child abuse is no joke man
