![]() These serial murders have been attributed to the wrath of Hinamizawa’s patron God and became known as “Oyashiro-sama’s curse.” The story of Higurashi takes place during the time of the fifth Watanagashi since these events began. In each case, one person is brutally murdered and one disappears without a trace. For the past four years, on the night of Watanagashi, the Cotton Drifting festival, a series of mysterious deaths has occurred. Every once in a great while, you come across an anime that completely alters your perception of what constitutes a “great series.” For this reviewer, that anime was Higurashi no Naku Koro Ni, or the localized When They Cry, a series based on the 7th Expansion games released in Japan.Ī mature show steeped in mystery, Higurashi tells the story of a group of friends living in Hinamizawa, a rural village held captive by a cruel, bloody legacy.
