Come to think about it... Higurashi was also morally questionable... "a friend killed someone, let's help him hide the corpse!"

Keep in mind these are all emotionally ill children and teenagers with mob connections, murderous tendencies, and hallucination/paranoia problems.

Well at the very least it feels like Ryuukishi doesn't have the greatest trust in the ability of society to help a child like Satoko or Maria.

When we were talking about real-life influences and how it affected our work back in 2007, Ryukishi implied that apparently a young child he knew (a niece? A friend's daughter? He didn't elaborate) was beaten to death by the legal guardian and the system didn't do anything because of a lack of evidence. I can totally see him being super fucking bitter.
