I must say i am scared and gave me a nightmare
But i can't stop watching and reading
Even i find my self re-read them

The child toture
and clawing your own neck to the death
Furude Rika's death and her suicide

Well those scene just horrible and addicting

Their OST also good.
2 million watch on youtube for the 1st series opening song. Wow

I could never bring myself to finish the Series, Most of the stuff that they do in it brings Shivers down my Spine. [One Day] I hope I can gather up enough Courage to finish off the Series... (as it still "does" interest me.. but.. I remember her pulling his Finger Nails of him once... *shivers*)

The addictive ingredients is the puzzle

I kept on wanting to know...
The questions keep me reading Higurashi
- Why the murderer did it?
- What is the murderer motive?
- What is the Hinamizawa syndrome
- Will they survive with no one die ?

I read backward...But i did finish reading it all

I love this anime/manga/visual novel, its really well made, and seeing different stories that explain each other is quite satisfying.

This is reaaaaaaally late, but I decided to give obvious answers to those, whether it was asked for or not. :P

- "Murderer" is very subjective, each arc usually has quite a few "murders" so to speak.
The act is usually from paranoia.

- The motive of the main villain
Spoiler


- Hinamizawa Syndrome is a syndrome that involves a persecution complex and paranoid delusions. These become more and more extreme and manifest as acts of extreme violence and debauchery. The "syndrome" is predicated by a parasitic life form as elucidated in the story. Furthermore, the "syndrome" is controllable by dubious means, also made clear therein.

- This chapter is technically the "good end," but the people who all died the Hinamizawa Series of Strange Deaths in Shouwa 54 through 57 as perpetrated by the syndrome and by the main villain remain dead, so there's no actual arc in which "everyone" lives. That's the easiest way to put it.
