>>78838413there's always been a supernatural element to Higurashi, however it was never the actual cause of the issues.
the new anime uses the use of supernatural activities with very poor taste, and character assassinates some of the others
this is more or less and attempt to wrap it closer to Umineko, who have two of the charecters from Higurashi in them, though it's not really them
whatever the case, the new adaptations are shit and the only thing they have going for it is the fact the vocal version of "Dear You" is played towards the end
don't watch
