The only piece that had me guessing a while was 女王への協力依頼, which became available without me knowing. If you're really stuck, break the pieces (pick them before they're available). That way, you'll get a visual cue (a blue box) around the broken piece when it becomes available. Quote:

"Iron Fist" Akasaka almost made me choke to death on coca cola from laughing so hard. Well, it's better than being Onsen I guess. Last edited by Sushi-Y; 2006-08-15 at 19:57. |

Minagoroshi is "the answer" to 90~99% of mystery. More or less, Minagoroshi is the answer to Tatarigoroshi tho.
I'm still painfully waiting for my Matsuribayashi but from what I gather it's more the epilogue to the series filling in the rest. |

Personally, it feels more like Minagoroshi-hen part 2. After all, it's pretty much a direct continuation of Minagoroshi. Quote:
Maybe someone will do it. Not me though. ^^; Quote:
Ryukishi07-san will certainly write more stories in the future (it may not be the same genre as Higurashi though), but for now, he's just trying to take it easy. After all, he has devoted 4 1/2 years of his life writing and producing this series, now that it's finally over, he'll probably need some time to rest before beginning another project. |

Finally done with Matsuribayashi, and my opinion is pretty much the same as Sushi. I feel extremely satisfied by what I read.
My hat off to Ryukishi-dono. If the last 2 chapters (at least) can be translated, then I sure hope something comes to fruition. I feel bad for the anime viewers. An advice to the viewers : DON'T GET SPOILED. It's not worth it, compared to the awesomeness Minagoroshi & Matsuribayashi are. Spoiler:

Huh, never thought about that.
Good guess. That's kinda like where Rena's name comes from: Ryu guu Rei na Ryu kishi 0 7 (Rei = zero, Na = seven) Ryuuguu (竜宮) = Dragon's Palace Ryuukishi (竜騎士) = Dragon Knight Interesting. Sushi-Y that spoiler tag is too tempting... must resists, must resists... a few more days and I will know... must resists... why are US Customs so cruel? T_T |

Aha!

It still doesn't answer all of the questions but it gives a very plausible answer for the anime watchers who haven't played the game why there was such disparity in character behavior from arc-to-arc. Kudos to the manga-ka - a smart cookie I do believe.

The difference, then, is caused by an outside factor instead. It may be environmental, or situational. The most important thing to remember about Higurashi is this: The different plot development in each scenario is responsible for the differences in the characters, not the other way around. All characters "start off" the same across all scenarios. So what caused the differences in plot development (if a world is "reset", shouldn't it just repeat itself again?)? that's something the anime probably won't address directly, but if they can handle Tsumihoroboshi-hen right, you should be able to understand why. And Higurashi is a sound novel, so I would call Ryukishi07-san the "author" instead of "mangaka". |
