Higurashi

Any chance we get an extra Onidamashi episode?

the next-episode preview says the next episode is the start of Watadamashi-hen. We might get an answer arc tho.

At best you might get Rika talking to Hanyuu at the beginning about it, otherwise we're onto Watadamashi-hen

>and this time Tomitake's body wasn't even found with its throat ripped out, so it can't be because of that
Isn't his body only found from third or second arc? I think oonikakushi is always "demoned away"?

So let's get everyone who is late to the party caught up to speed

>Anything from the opened curtain to the hospital scene is considered unreliable narrative.
>According to the clocks, Rena and K1 were fighting for 14 minutes straight. Rena was at K1's house for about half-an-hour in total
>Rena's body is in the same position from the moment she hit her head to the ending pile of blood
>There may have been additional people in the room, as K1 left his house unlocked and anyone could have come in.
>Keiichi seems to have obtained neck injuries
>His stab wounds are inconsistent with his status in the hospital
>The police do not seem to be actively charging or pursuing K1 with any crimes
Am I forgetting anything?

The yamainu have no reason to silence Keiichi and they also wouldn't treat him for the disease since without medicine, he will eventually kill himself anyway at L5.

Man I fucking missed R07 speculah. Ciconia didn't deliver, and this reminds me of my when Zig Forums was full of Umineko threads about random shit.

Rena's pov shows dismemberment tools in the bento box. She also talks about her father, which is something Keiichi doesn't know about.

I think it's Takano's body that's found in the second arc. Ooishi is the one who clues Keichi in to the throat clawing.

Yeah, they let him live in Tatarigoshi. And GHD didn't happen anyway.

That's probably the biggest clue, if GHD didn't happen it means they know the theory is bogus, which means something happened to Takano. They are also show packing, which further solidifies that.

So what you're saying is... That Keiichi's murder of Rena is a closed room mystery!?

Why do retards immediately conclude that just because Keiichi could have hallucinated some parts, literally every single event must have once again been caused by his own delusions even though this arc is supposed to be a subversion of Onikakushi?

It is obvious that Rena tried to murder him. L5 can't change her dialogue, which was literally "I'm going to kill you".

>Rena's pov shows dismemberment tools in the bento box.
We don't know if she had demon eyes in that scene or not. We also don't know if Keiichi is the one actually crafting the narrative about what happened, or if it is a speculative account of how things went down Umineko style.

I think Tomitake not showing up dead is the biggest clue we have. In every loop that doesn't end with Takano failing, he shows up dead. He's 100% tied to her plans, so Takano must be out of the picture, and the main villain is someone completely different.

Hardly worth discussing right now since it's currently impossible to know whether the things theyve shown in the altercation were intentional or just to add tension... Seems really hacky at the moment.

imagine thinking all as it seems with R07
newfags continunally btfo wtf

I'm happy it got another season/reboot, but man, it does not look very good.

I like the artstyle of Bakemonogatari, Grisaria, and such, but this looks completely nerfed.
The Rika shrine maiden dance was well animated, but there's a lot of QUALITY moments going on.

Keiichi is the worst. He's made wide and round faced, dumpy and his pants are hiked up to his armpits and his ass is like 2 feet long.
Then they made Oishi WAY fatter than he was before. And again, like Keiichi his face is too wide. His chin is like 6 inches wide. And they put no effort in his shoes, it looks like he's standing around in socks.
I'm half-way through episode 3 now, and everyone else looks decent.
Rika and Satako look great.
But Rena and Mion suffer from chubby cheeks from time to time.

Why did they do this?
The rest of Akio Watanabe shows don't look this nerfed, why did Higurashi turn out like this?

I kinda prefer the Deen designs and animations better.

It really looks like they half-assed the designs and animation in this, with exception of that Shrine Maiden dance.

Everyone looks good from the side, but front facing looks too wide and round.

Her motive and statements are inconsistent. If her objective was to disappear herself and make K1 the visible sacrifice, why would she bring tools to hide his body? Moreover, if her objective was to kill K1, why didn't she bring her own murder weapon?

Only some of what she said adds up.

Also when he drives away theres CG QUALITY.

>If her objective was to disappear herself and make K1 the visible sacrifice, why would she bring tools to hide his body?

Her objective was to dismember his body and present him as the newest curse victim. Who said she wanted to hide his body? She wants to make it look like he is dam construction foreman 2.0 while disappearing herself, probably because she murdered multiple people, maybe even Takano and Tomitake.

>Moreover, if her objective was to kill K1, why didn't she bring her own murder weapon?

Because she wants him to let her in, obviously. She couldn't hide that thing in some boxes. And she definitely couldn't bring it to the kitchen without making him suspicious.

Also, none of that would change her actions in these 4 episodes, which are definitely the actions of Tsumihoroboshi-Rena, so why would you doubt that she was trying to kill the guy who was constantly talking to the police, possibly ratting her out?

Tell me this isn't 100% SaiGar 2020 material right here.

This is literally the worst shot in the entire show so far.
Overall the animation has been miles better than the DEEN adaptation.
If you think the actual designs and direction are worse than that's pretty subjective.

Meant to reply to

As far as we know, K1 is the only person who saw the Yamainu doing whatever they were doing at the clinic

>She wants to make it look like he is dam construction foreman 2.0 while disappearing herself,
Why go through that effort? The whole reason the Dam Foreman got バラバラ'd in the first place is because they tried (and failed) to hide his body. What's the point of going through that effort if your objective is to essentially make sure he is found? She would have met her objective just by leaving him where he was.

>She couldn't hide that thing in some boxes.
She hid an entire hacksaw in there. There is no way in hell she wouldn't have room for a kitchen knife.

Also the lips syncing is horrible
I don't even speak moon, but the mouths don't fucking match at all.

Renafags are reaching so hard. Take the L, she's far worse than we thought.

>There is no way in hell she wouldn't have room for a kitchen knife.
How do you know that wasn't her knife? Also why bring a knife if you're going to be in his kitchen anyways? The thing that gets me is the handcuffs, she was looking to torture him.

>The new SEX

Is everyone who's aruging "the fight took exactly 14 minutes wtf" ignoring the obvious skip to the aftermath. It clearly ended far before then and we're just seeing the scene right before K1 passed out from his wounds.

This entire hallucination narrative is based on idiots crying that K1 couldnt have survived the stabbing, like this has ever been a hyperrealistic story

Attached: 1601570237094.gif (350x396, 549.45K)

The fight even lasting 7 minutes seems unrealistic. K1 bonked Rena at 20:17 despite the fight starting at 20:10. Something must have happened and we are no where near getting the full truth.

>How do you know that wasn't her knife?
It was there when she walked into the kitchen. She picked it up from the cutting board.
>Also why bring a knife if you're going to be in his kitchen anyways?
She unironically could have picked a much better knife than the one she grabbed.
The results speak for themselves, the mother fucker lived.

>Renafags are reaching so hard.
Shit man, I was actually excited to see her go L5. And I'm with you, that stuff about her dad is not something K1 could have come up with or imagined. That said, I am convinced that we're being fed a bullshit narrative and we don't even know who's doing the talking.

>The thing that gets me is the handcuffs, she was looking to torture him.
Handcuffs make angling body parts easier for dismemberment. That's my thought at least.
More specifically, I actually don't believe that she ever intended to dispose of a body in the first place and she brought all of those tools for a different reason entirely.

>Why go through that effort?

Because then nobody would be suspicious about his death nor about her disappearance. People would just say that Oyashiro struck twice that year and that would be it.
A crazy L5 Rena couldn't leave the one guy alive who was seemingly on her trail.

>There is no way in hell she wouldn't have room for a kitchen knife.

If she's preparing the murder in his kitchen, she might as well use one of his knives. She could've also prepared other weapons that we didn't see. Maybe she was planning to make him some filled Ohagi and had to improvise when he entered the kitchen.

It doesn't matter either way. Whether she had a murder weapon there or not doesn't refute her planning to murder him. She literally said it out loud.

The "Hallucination" narrative stems from the fact that they were rolling around on the floor playing Knifey-Clocky for 14 minutes straight.
