@thegameulost well, when I saw it, it seemed more like a joke pairing thing. Personally, I think the first one was the most disturbing. A teenage boy and a bunch of grown men fantasizing about little girls *shivers* >M<
I felt dirty just watching what they did to poor Rika, Satoko, and Hanyuu...
@ScarletGinger Rika and Satoko have a weird dream where they become magical girls, they then get trapped in an alternate world where everything is like a magical anime. Satoshi is back and Takono is a villian again along with the silver haired woman, Satakos uncle and the other member of Tokyo (not Tomitake or the director).
@ScarletGinger yeah, when I was watching it I was just shocked by how awful it was. Maybe if you're a complete pervert that wants to see Takano nude when she's attached to this massive golem then you'll enjoy it. But ppl with actual taste will hate it.
I can see a happy, normal arc happening for a change. In fact, I wish one would happen to give Rika a break from her own "Irony of Fate" (only Tales fans will get that). But this series is just a wtf moment, only not just a moment... Instead it's all a wtf moment... I really hope the last two or so after this one are at least Higurashi's cute happy instead of this crap...
@MiragesMisteryGirl If you're a real Higurashi fan, you'll see that this isn't Higurashi. The epic story is no longer there, there's no continuation to Kai, therefore being no answers to Tokyo's existence after Takano was arrested, no new information concerning Hanyuu and Ouka, and cool elements like seeing Onigafuchi for the first time with the Furude Family's Onigari-no-Ryuo are never dared to be adapted into anime.
Instead, there's fan service an sexualization of the chars I grew to love.
everyone seems to be forgetting the point of these ovas. The series is OVER guys. The only reason this is coming out is because of the anniversary of the series. They're just doing some cute stuff for the fans. No plot guys. No. Plot.
@tigcoon I understand that, and I'm fine with happy, but this is more like a sugar coated happy/extremely random series. They could at least try to keep the mood, regardless if they follow up with the series. This really could kill the show if someone watched this out of order. They should be thinking about that...
I GOT IT! This must be a happy chapter gone wrong at the end, turns out the hinamizawa syndrome has a 2nd effect: making everyone think everything is fine, when it really isn't or maybe this is a filler chapter ^_^
Hm.... May not be as good as the other 3 seasons, but doesn't hurt to give it a chance. Hopefully its not as perverted as the 1st episode of Kira.... This does look interesting, though :3
@ViolinSnowKid2 Doesn't look like a Madoka parody. Just looks like a magical girl one. I'm not sure we'll be seeing anything as dark as Madoka or Higurashi itself.
@Daggertail100 aaah shut the fuck up , I couldn't stand the killing in the original , I'm a lolicon and can't just watch a loli stabbing herself in the head TT_TT
@saske96 ...I'm talking about the deep story, kind person. Kira is devoid of, so far, everything that made Higurashi so perfect in the past. As a die-hard fan, I'm not at all happy with the new direction that this season is taking. You can like it, I'm not saying you can't, but I'm just expressing my views as a fan.
@Daggertail100 It's just that I admit that I'm ecchi/loli/comedy fan (I meanly watch animes with this genres) and I really like it and I feel so sad when I see all the hate directed to this anime.... ;(
@saske96 And that's fine: like whatever you want. In the end, it's really your opinion that matters. So I'm not a fan of this new direction, that's okay, that's just what I think. You like this direction, that's fine too. I'm not saying you're wrong for liking it, I was just giving my personal two cents.
@catmap67 I think Ryukishi07 got so wasted during a night of debauchery where he completely lost all his reason and came up with this stuff. I don't care if he's trying to be funny or appeal to a new audience, this ain't Higurashi. I personally think he's lost his mind.
"I think Ryukishi07 got so wasted during a night of debauchery"
And knowing one of his best friends is ZUN, the guy who's behind Touhou (who also an very drinker), I wouldn't put it past R07 being drunk when he made this all up.
Action, magic + Higurashi... All hell is about to break loose people. Red-Eyes Rena? We're all screwed. Let us pray no one's armed with Starlight Breaker. > >" And is that Keiichi I see in a masked man outfit? - -" And Mion in a SKIRT?! O___O Cool but... whoa. Lol I wonder what is going on this time? AIs it seriously a magical girl OVA or is it just someone like maybe Rika drawing manga? Only time will tell.
@ContracteeHikaru I like your guess that it might be Rika's "manga", maybe she took the idea from the Festival Music Arc and actually started it. Or maybe it's an idealized version of her view of the events XD This is fun! I actually did like the first OVA, especially the references to Onikakushi-hen and am excited for the second one to come out!
@RandomAvatarFan I'm thinking she actually drew the manga she said she was going to, ya know, when she was asking her friends for ideas, when she was trying to cheat her death...it was before the first time she told everyone about the Hinamizawa syndrome. Seriously, it looks like Rika's an awesome mangaka to me xD
this OVA was WAAAAAY better than the first one... at least it had a plot :P
