They're constantly breaking the mood with absurdities that have no place in an anime with a serious plot like Higurashi.
So true. The Yamainu are so useless that Takano might as well have saved her money and just bought a box of toy soldiers. The last arc is like a whole different anime from the Higurashi I grew to love. I am not even going to bother listing the "coincidences" and implausibilities in the plot any more as they are too many and if one can't see them while watching the anime no amount of convincing would change that. Let's just say there are fairy tales in which the way the good guys get to the happy end is way more plausible and feels less forced than in Higurashi.

Shion has been the only bright spot in the last two episodes.
