wataganashi-hen (綿流し編): ENDING

so, in the spirit of halloween, i have been rereading higurashi all month (slowly, sometimes while working etc)…

onikakushi (episode 1) is really fun and i like how simple of a story it is (especially once you know the answers) but.

watanagashi (episode 2) is SO. GOOD!!!! it just gets so dark. The way people are murdered in this one is so much more fucked up. It’s bleak and tragic. It’s emotionally resonant. You get to see the characters start developing actual personalities (I loooove when you first get to see Rena start being dependable and sharp, despite her “airheaded” impression).

anyways yeah enjoying the reread a lot more than i expected. i love stories
