Hopefully Geneon will play the the horror angle, as I think it'd be better to be expecting that and get some cute stuff mixed in than to expect cuteness and fluff and the first thirty seconds feature two female students being beaten to a bloody pulp with a baseball bat  . If the horror aspect is emphasized, then I think "When They Cry" is kind of vague and ominous.
And actually, Higurashi cry at twilight, whereas American cicadas are at it all day. "When the Cicadas Cry" probably won't make the same kind of sense to Americans. |
I don't see this ending well.
If they don't use the original covers, they're going to be bitched at. None of them really use the horror angle either.
