Nice to hear something about the game. I'll probably like it when it arrives maybe after a week or two (just got payment confirmation e-mail from AmiAmi). And I can't wait to hear new ahaha.wav and see Higanbana-Sakutaro.
Maybe they switched how they handled sprites to save space, they can include the whole game on CD now. But, there is the possibility they could use beheaded sprites...

Too bad about ZTS and -45. No xaki either? Well, that doesn't mean they it won't have tracks from them in the later editions. Especially if it goes increasingly epic with each addition like Umineko.

Maybe I should get the pirated version for comedic value, but only after reading the real product...

There's a real one floating around in these tubes called the internet.
Also holy shit Higanbana is short.

I don't really want to find myself reading horror, sad and gory stuff with さくたろうの頑張り物語 or something like it in background so yeah, guess I'll wait for my copy from amiami. it'll take some time but luckily Rewrite will keep me busy.

By the way, is it really that short? I mean come on, just five hours?

I can hardly read any Japanese, but reading the first "episode" so far, I was able to notice something about its plot.

Spoiler for "Ep1" plot:


The Anons of 4chan claim the VN is different from the manga. I guess this means the plot isn't different, but it's told in a more narrative style than Higurashi and Umineko.

Don't rely on me to give you the plot to the other chapters, because I can't read Japanese in strides.

Oh, and I have the titles for the seven stories contained within the first release, also for those who are interested:

So after you read all 7 stories, you get two things. The Music Box and Character TIPS (think umineko style). The problem is Ryu jammed a lot of text onto some of them, making them hard to read.

Oh and fun fact if you "Ctrl" the entire game it only takes 30 minutes to get to the end.

Good to know that the game has brought people to tears >.>

Has anybody ordered from PaletWeb? The Paypal I sent them was from a different email address than the one that's on my account, but I put the order number with the payment. It's been a couple of days now, but I haven't received confirmation. What should I do?

EDIT: Nevermind, confirmed

Of all the stories that I haven't seen prior to the manga, the one that intrigues me the most is the third story, with Midori and the "Tea Gentleman." I'm no expert in Japanese, but this is how I think their story goes, so if anyone has any details or corrections, please tell me.

Spoiler for EP3 Spoilers & Speculation:


If I'm wrong on any points, or if I'm missing information, then by all means, tell me.

Well, this is kind of a letdown. I was hoping to not be the only one willing to discuss Higanbana, since I'm still unclear on what's going on...

I'm disappointed in how little is being discussed about it too... I wish I could contribute but I don't own the game and my Japanese is nowhere near good enough to play through it. ^^;

I'd LOVE to know more about it though, I really want to know about the stories and the characters... maybe more and more people will start to discuss the games once the second game comes out. Assuming that there will be more than just a couple of games, I could see the popularity picking up more somewhere in the middle.

Well, I'm actually still in the process of reading it, but I had some thoughts about the first bit.

Spoiler for Mesomeso-san, minor Umineko spoilers I guess?:

Speaking of comedic value:

In the first place, no Umineko BGMs exist anywhere on the Higanbana ROM. Someone would have to deliberately switch the files out and rename them, so I'm just left tilting my head in confusion.

All of the BGMs in Higanbana are wonderful pieces, so I hope you enjoy listening to them. If you like, please email the individual composers and let them know what you think!
