Spoiler for Higurashi:

When at the end the narrator goes its way to explain how a crazed Keichi believing he can make people die just by thinking it predicts the death by drowning of the reporter that interrogates him. And guess what? The reporter actually dies by drowning.
This can't really be plausibly explained with anything but a coincidence that the author placed there just to reinforce the idea that Keichi wasn't just mad and that he actually had that power.

I don't think this scene and overusing a theme like people falling are even a little bit similar.

Spoiler for Higurashi:

I don't see how placing the coincidence there is a bad thing.

The spoilered works in Higurashi because Higurashi is a horror/ghost story first. Ryukishi doesn't give a plausible answer about why the reporter drowned because if you knew why he died it wouldn't be creepy. Ryukishi intentionally created the coincidence to imply Keiichi can kill people with his mind and creep his readers out.
