Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni or When The Cicadas Cry is the best horror manga ever put to paper. While the anime adaptation by Studio Deen and the Visual Novel by 7th Expansion are sublime, this is to my mind the best adaptation hands down. Ryukishi07 writing, Karin Suzuki's art...it's just all so good. I cannot recommend this manga enough. Head over to Yen Press and buy it for yourselves.
Keichi Maebara moves back to the small town of Hinamizawa, an isolated Twin-Peaks esque village in the mountains and quickly befriends a quartet of girls, Rena, Mion, Rika and Satako. Slowly but surely, however, he is quickly drawn into a web of mystery, murder and supernatural horror - connected to a cancelled dam project, a number of mysterious deaths and the town's guardian deity, a malevolent being known as Oyashiro-sama.
This represents the first half of Watanagashi, the second arc - part 2, part 4 overall will likely come in February 2025.

Can't get over the "getting mittyed"😭
I love this manga sm... U guys dont understand
Einfach nur - Simply just: SOSU!
Finally part 3
Gotta be burgers. I got old and my tastes have changed. Reheated food just doesnt taste as good to me as it used to. A burger goes down in one sitting. Pizza? Not so much.
Sister Leveling is one of the best comedy abridged series on TH-cam also. Right up there with DBZ:Abridged.
There are a lot of scary deer in media but this one started that fear in me
This arc is just so tragic to me, like oh my gosh Mion, my girl 💔💔
Are you going to continue to upload your list?
Hahaha yes, but not for a bit. I have a plan for 30k subs.
@ cool, I love your content so keep it up man
well, your thumbnail is a fucking lie because I've read it before, the whole thing
uhg i love hearing your tangents about japanese culture and life- it adds so much to your analysis of the story and really makes gives your channel something not many other manga/anime centric channels have. you really know your stuff and clearly have a ton of passion and respect for the material you’re covering. truly delighted every time you post a new video.
The potential this manga had was rrally unmatched . Sadly the writers gave up on it mid story
Amazing video! One question that kept with me is: when the curse made the poison to be expelled from Riko, why does she still is poisoned and needed to be cured?
Paputa and reg have the same belly button which means reg could be also a being born from the wish granting egg???
45:34 is it the Kuchisaki-ona?
9:18 this is something I'd expect in Dark Souls.
23:47 she looks like Lois Griffin
its a crazy anime
What language are you studying? And which do you already know? Also, I died laughing at 25:00
17:55 Rena is seeming a long tongue yokai, perhaps a akaname (or scum licker). This may or may not be in reference to Rena's dumpster diving hobby.
AHA! I think you just nailed it there.
1:05:14 clearly the coroners are succumbing to the spiral. 😵💫
Hello first, I played the game 200 hrs and love it. everything. even the bugs. Now A question. What did you mean with improve the graphics? I really want to replay and maybe improve some stuff myself. everyone can answer if they know stuff. I tend to use improvement mods and code myself. I onces wanted to code the sixth layer, but the game is way to complicated in programming xD. So dear Owl and community, when you know ways to play around with graphics and the game, let me know :D
5:09 that's the most DISGUSTING bidet I've ever seen! 🤢🤮🤮🤮🤮
@26:22 in 2010 I went to a small Christian school in middle Georgia. I was the oldest in the school in tenth grade and the rest of my room was a mixture of fifth and sixth graders. First and second; third and fourth; were also grouped together. In total there was less than 100 students. We fit in a single hallway when we had a tornado.
GET THE OWL TO 100K
this is awesome! always look forward to a new upload from you
Welp I'm off to become a vegetarian for the rest of my life now ey
I wonder why these videos have so few views? Literal AI-read manga summarizes are getting way more views. Is FrightRanker doing something to get screwed by the algorithm?
Longform content with a more chill, vibey tone on more obscure manga lol. It's not flashy. It's fine, I have a great retention and patrons generally are where the money comes from.
13:03 is it weird that I find this more silly/goofy than scary? I feel like if she weren't in a horror manga she might be friendly. Unless of course, that's how they get you.
I was too busy yesterday to make a proper commentary, so now I'll give my thoughts on the video (English isn't my first language; sorry if I write something wrong :C). Okay, first, I have never understood why people don’t like this arc that much. I do agree that it is one of the weaker question arcs; however, I don’t think it is bad. After reading Meakashi, going back and reading this arc again is a pretty cool experience. Maybe it’s because a lot of people are anime-only, and the anime did a pretty bad job with this arc. Regarding the manga only, I’m going to read this arc soon because I believe it is the only Higurashi arc that I haven’t read in manga format, which is crazy because I love the art for Watanagashi and Meakashi. That’s why I didn’t knew we had a different start; the VN straight up starts with the game tournament in Okinomiya. 7:44, about the kids' ages, Mion and Keiichi are the same age, while Rena is one year younger. However, Mion (who is in a higher grade than Rena and Keiichi, who are in the same grade) will be having a birthday soon; the same goes for Rena. (All of this is mentioned in one tip of Onikakushi in the VN.) We also know their birthdays and the fact that Mion is leaving the Hinamizawa branch school that year. For Mion to leave the school, she has to turn 15 that year because we know that the Hinamizawa school grades end there. Based on that, Mion would be a senior high school (I believe) by 1984. I think that senior high school is from 15 to 17. So, Keiichi is 14, Mion is 14, and Rena is 13. Here are their birth dates: Mion: 10/07/1968 Keiichi: 13/04/1969 Rena: 28/07/1969 I’m not sure about Rika and Satoko, though; all I know is that they are the same age, but Satoko is older. About the part with Shion-Mion and Keiichi before it was revealed Shion's existence, I do believe that it was done to, one, confuse the reader (well, that’s obvious), and for Mion’s character, because we learn a lot about her in that part of the chapter. Also, I must say that Keiichi was kind of right in the fact that Mion was showing him about her femininity; it wasn’t like an elaborated plan, just a coincidence. She wasn’t going to, but then she saw an opportunity. The thing is that she never thought about the actual Shion appearing. So indeed, Mion was using the name Shion to get in touch with Keiichi, but then Shion appeared, and yada yada yada. Wow, I didn’t know that much about women in Japan. I did know they have a machismo history, but all that about the benefits after marriage and such-wow, you learn something new every day! xD 33:38 All about the Watanagashi name and meaning has been stuck in my head since I watched the anime, and I still don’t know why. When I started the VN, there were plenty of things that I had forgotten; for example, the majority of the dam war. But I never forgot about the WATAnagashi stuff, lmao. 34:50 Wow, there are a lot of changes in the manga! Omg, I have to read it right now. Lol, I don’t remember the club going to Angel Mort in this chapter. I don't know if it’s a change or if I forgot. Awesome video and analysis! :D
that game is likely nekopara >///>
Nah, it's older. One of the characters was...ugh. Like a bunny girl thief and there was a dog girl cop?
I dont know the story and am still in the early part of your dive. Hearing about points it makes me curious if they are good or not. Off an alien you dont know and get a point? End of the game and those with ZERO points are rewarded?
All of these will be revealed as the story goes on :)
30 min in: You’re talking about “Paranoia Agent” by Satoshi Kon! Technically Shonen Battu wasn’t being actually summoned, but by creating the idea, the artist made a character who other people could use to escape from their lives.
The most recent “needle in food” that I can think of is when a shipper tried to feed the creators of a show needle-filled cookies to punish them for not making her ship canon
It's such a pleasure to listen to you. Oddly, you bring calmness despite the horrific context. Thank you
Last month I red these part of Watanagashi in the visual novel. The first meeting in angel mort was Mion (Keichi's classmate to be more specific), but the one being harassed by those guy in angel mort was Shion. But were those guys so much older? I was thinking just few older than Keichi (it's difficult to distinguish from the art style). By the way, do you own also the japanese version of the manga? I remember when reading some online fan translations, there was a short chapter, where Keichi helped Shion with the annoying customers, by doing those things they asked of Shion (cleaning the cake from crotch). However, it isn't in the eglish manga I have, so I was wondering it it was one of those silly comics that japanese mangas have right under the cover (which are not always included in english releases), or just some fan work.
