Review of Higurashi: When They Cry – Kai

This season was WAY better than the first season. Here we follow Rika who gets killed on the same day, and until she solves this case she can't move forward in time. (a very brief summary) I mean there were still few questions I had at the end but overall, since the story weren't as disconnected as the first series, it was rather enjoyable. I also felt a stronger connection in this series as well. The first season completely disregarded the relationships between all the characters and it just broke so easily. I always though if you're going to kill someone you care about, shouldn't therebe a confrontation or more resistance towards these red flags. It was as if no body had a brain cell.

But this season, everyone could think and was way smarter. I felt way sadder when everyone died. I still didn't like Suichi very much but he grew on me in this since he was alot calmer. But Rika being the MC made the anime good and seeing her struggle made me want to wish for her happiness.

The art too improved. Not alot, but definitely there were change. I don't have much to say here though, since my opinions still stand from season 1 review.

Overall, fuck takano.
