In order to explain logically and consistently how Maria could be still alive you need to come up with a lot of unmentioned background set ups.
That is however the same that you needed to do to explain the "burned corpse" in Higurashi. Who the hell could have imagined that in the earlier episodes without going onto the field of wild speculations?

Well, I think the difference is that there isn't any foreshadowing that Maria might not be dead. Whereas, in Higurashi, Takano was said to have appeared at the festival after the time that the body that was found should have died.
At least for me, at that point, I was pretty certain that she'd faked her death.
