  • What does MAD video mean? I've been wondering that for a long while now!!

  • @Izuzu15 "A MAD Movie is a Japanese fan-made video, much like an Anime Music Video. MAD can also describe the Japanese AMV community, although they can be anything from audio clips, edited pictures, to wholly original creations. MADs do not necessarily even need to be related to anime, though the more popular ones typically are. The term MAD (occasionally M@D) is thought to be a reference to the name of one of the original MADs, rather than a particular acronym for anything." (Wikipedia Rip XD)

  • @SkyShaymin277 What's one of the original MAD's? One of the first MAD videos a Japanese person did?

  • HIGURASHI NO NAKURA KORO NI ES LO MEJOR EN ANIME QUE PUEDEA EXISTIR

  • O.o do they all got anorexia now O.O so thin and so round face loool

  • Comment removed

  • This is very nostalgic.

  • Me trae nostalgia este opening, me encanta la música y el diseño de personajes es interesante. Lo mejor de Higurashi son los primeros arcos junto con Rena.

  • Oh, wow! =D

  • Anyone got a link to where I can download this song?

  • @LelouchKing9 (remove the * sign... had to put it in, 'cause I can't post direct links here) listentoyoutube.*com... enter the url of the video and it'll extract the audio as a .mp3 file and save it to your computer. It doesn't affect the audio's quality, either.

  • Is this an opening for one of the games? The character design looks different from the openings I've seen and the anime.

  • @SurvivorsOfTitanic This isn't the opening for the games... I don't think they had any openings for the games... O.o (at least not that I've seen and I'm almost through Onikakushi-hen) These MADs were probably created by a Japanese Higurashi fanbase and are basically AMVs, but with original clips.

  • @SkyShaymin277 The PS2 games have openings! And I think the PSP ones do to. But the original PC ones don't. D: Too bad.

  • The name of the song is called "Bewailing" and the artist is Nira Etsuko.

  • @luciapearlvoice

    thank you ^^

  • i wold love to know the name of this song and the artist it is beutiful ^^

  • keeichi is in this vid, jeeze guys. Just not named. Hes at 1:30

  • really good but i also miss keeichi....

  • 1:30

  • and of course...they exclude Keichii anywhere in this vid...=.= what the fuck is up with everyone hateing on keichii?!?!

  • because you never saw what Keichii looked like in the first few chapters of the sound novels, because it was told from his point of view. you only saw his character portrait in later chapters where he wasn't the protagonasit I believe.

    so the creators of these MADs had no idea what he looked like.

  • oh...thx for clearing up my dumbass.XP

  • It looks like Motion graphic to promote the pc games it doesn't look like a Mad vid I think these r official. Keichi was the star for most queston arcs so I'm sure they had his character drawn on the 2nd question arc.

  • oh, i didn't know they were official.

    thanks for clearing that up.

  • Yep looks official cos I think I saw a few Mad vids and they looked way way different from these, ur welcome I'm always and helping ppl out :3

  • Me encanto T_T, por siempre higurashi y Rena

  • awesome vid, great song

  • I just love this song. And the clip. And Higurashi! Best anime ever.

  • who nows the name oof the song i still cant find it

  • Shinra Etsuko - Bewailing

    By the way, awesome video =).

  • wats the song called

  • bewailing by shinra etsuko (i think)

  • cool song^^

  • My god they look different...

    Wahoo!!! NEW HIGURASHI EXPERIENCE!! :D!!!

  • Thats be this isnt the same style, dfork, for example; Google Anime and Manga, youll see that the styling is different. Same thing applies there.

  • Y did he/she get a -6 what did they say to make ppl mad at his opinion, most anime manga and even games made don't all look alike. But half the time anime looks the same like the manga Rurouni Kenshin looks the same with both. I like anime style better if they aren't lookalikes, the animation is more better, this hardly looks like Higurashi. And I like the anime version better but this is very cute to look at.

  • Because we have an opinin as well.

  • Well y did I get a -1 I like anime art cos it looks better to me I know we all have opinions. But when ppl get mad and curse some1 out or give them negative #'s it doesn't feel like opinions. It feels like attacking some1 and I feel attacked :( I only asked y ppl were mad at the guy cos I couldn't c his comment. And some1 said styling is different from anime/manga, if ppl like the art here then I'm sorry if I said something to offend u. I like the art too but I like the anime art more.

  • w8 so what is there 2 versions of the anime? Higurashi no naku koro ni, kai, rei and then nakanai kimi to nageki no sekai?

  • This is scenes from the orginal visual novel, in other words what its creator made

  • no ^^

    these ones are kind of arcs or something like that ^^"" (i think)

  • that was great! Rena Completes me...and the Axe completes Rena!

  • It's a hatchet :P

  • acually to be exact its a Bell tipped hatchet!

  • Yesh it is :D

  • ITS A MACHETE ay dios mio XD

  • A machete? Nah, it doesn't look like one to me >.>

  • it's a originally a nata

  • @hypercookie111 umm i read somewhere that it was a meatclever..like in the manga think...

  • This song is reallllly pretty.

    The art is nice too.

  • oh well.. not SO well drawn...

  • cool

  • Try using a media converter to turn the video into a music file. Google "Youtube video converter" and you should get a few good results.

  • SchoolDaysの続編CrossDaysの情報か公開され­ました。

    興味なかったらすみません。

  • wow this IS really great!!!! most of the slideshows are boring in my opinion but with all the special effects you did a FANTASTIC job!!!! 5/5 + favo

    can you please tell what the name of the song is? "Nakanai Kimi to Nageki no Sekai"???

  • lol could it be that you didn't do this? XD is it from a video game?

  • It is.

    How cool, isn't it?

  • yup this is really really GREAT! :)

  • I cry when i see this video.. *_*

    Higurashi no naku.. :'(

  • i cant find the damn lyrics

  • nice!!!!!

  • I have this video and the others 4 with english subtitles in my channel if someone want it

  • IT IS SO SWEET.......

  • What is the name of music?

    Awesome video.

  • Whats the name of this song Dx?

  • Did you draw this =O?

    I think Rena's hair in the series was more unique, her hiar here is flat down =O Ih well, good job =D

  • How do you spell Satoko's surname?

    I've seen Hojo & Houjou, and in this it's spelled Houjyou...

    But this is awesome! O:

    I'm sure the effect would be better if I could read Japanese, though. xD; -sweatdrop-

  • I think the actual spelling for Satoko's last name would be Houjou, but I'm still trying to figure that out as well.

    I agree totally on you with that! xD

  • "Jyou" is the same as "jou". As "jou" does not exist in the hira and kata spelling, "jyou" is basically like a combination of "ji" and "you". To sum it up basically, "ji you" = "jyou" = "jou"

  • wow great job *-*

  • What does Nakanai Kimi to Nageki no Sekai roughly translate into?

    I noticed that at a certain point, you could see "hahahaha" in the video...

  • I'm no expert but:-

    "Naka nai Kimi" - Not Inside You, I think

    "to Nageki no Sekai" - And the World of *something*(I'm not sure Nageki is what)

  • Nageki is bewailing or lamentation

  • Hm...closest I got was "Nageku". Thx for the info.

  • i think its "You who Don't Cry and the World of Bewailing" your half right, good job :)

  • i think its "You who Don't Cry and the World of Bewailing"

  • Stupid artist didn't draw Keiichi :< only his back at the beginning. Great video, even though I have seen artists whose drawing fits these series more :P

    I'm just a annoying criticist.

  • Great Song! Who sings it?

  • good graphic XD 5 stars

  • Kinda, only at 1:56 though

  • Simply this is the arc whereas Keiichi gets paranoid

  • Beautiful song, beautiful video. I hate to ask, but if anyone could tell me the name of the song, I'd love it.

  • rena ish cute here like how she is drawn :D

  • Will there be a 3rd season?

  • yes there will be in december or so(in japan at least) it is called higurashi no naku koro ni rei

  • Hmm.. The plotting does not seem good. Hope the story is deep like higurashi..

  • uh. xD

    This is basically an overview of Onikakushi-hen. (aka, the first 4 episodes)

  • .....Hm. It's centered around Rena alot more than Mion or Keichi. They're equally important, right?

  • I uploaded this video with the translation, if anyone want to see is in my profile.I will do this with all 5 MADs

  • 3:18 says Im sorry

  • I remember that part... Where Rena stands in the rain mouthing "Komendosai" over and over

  • ...It's "Gomenasai", not "Komendosai". Close though.

  • It's "Gomen nasai". Close though.

    XD

  • This must mean my japanese coursebook and dictionary are wrong, then, if they're two different words.

  • But it's supposed to be "gomennasai" or "gomen nasai", it doesn't matter if they're two different words, I mean there are two "n"s.

    If I'm wrong I apologize.

  • That makes sense. I got it now, thanks 8D

  • You're welcome =3

    (BTW, that reply was fast!)

  • I thought there was ONE n.

    I have a japanese friend and she's sort of teaching me, she said it's pronounced like theres 2 but she said there's one and it's one word.

  • if only they showed more of mion and keichi... i mean, its their story for most of the parts too...

  • nice~

  • is this some kind of a preview for a movie or what?

  • nope :D its like the title says a Motion Graphic its like an AMV :D but Better ;D

  • HA! I can read the Hiragana at 4:37

    "Gomenasai"

    .. I feel special.

  • I don't see any Hiragana at 4:37. Just a blank screen. >w>;

  • i think he meant 3:17 o.o theres gomennasai there

  • yes a lot of gomennasai

  • I looooooove this song... Someone know title and artist this song...?? Please for contact with me :) byee

  • 曲もいいけど、編集が神すぎる・・・!!

    アニメしか見てないんでよく分からんけど、絵って原作?

    可愛いし、綺麗でこの絵好きです・・・w

  • When you know the story about the first chapter,it makes this video even sadder. D:

  • ^_^ higurashi no naku koroni is my favorite horror anime!

    good job.

  • It's so awesome, isn't it? It has everything- blood, gore, cuteness, and humor! =)

  • I meant the anime. But this video is cool too. =)

  • I Just love it! 5/5

  • very pretty ^^

  • Wow, this is unbelievable. I can't stop watching...

    It's beautiful.

    Is this a basic outlook on everything that happened after he started running after he pushed Rena and ran into the woods?

    and then it trailed to Mion and Rena's murder?

    Via The bat keiichi took from Satoshi's locker?

  • rinne to yume to... artist is etsuko shinra

  • thank you ^^

  • This is awesome.

  • The art for this looks very Fruits Basket-ish.

  • wow...that was actually really beautiful O.O I loved it ^^

  • What Program dig you use for this?

  • It's semi-professionally made, not by the uploader.

  • If anyone wants the song, I have the full version with lyrics.

    Just contact me on msn. :)

  • Nya...They need to make an english version for the game and put it with the nintendo DS. I would so buy it.

  • They would probably make it for PS2 like the Japanese games, but agreed.

  • there is a DS version coming out, but only in Japanese.

  • OMG rena looks so different in the anime O_O

    LUV IT x3 is soooo awsummmmmm

    5/5+faved

  • It's called bewailing by Shinra Etsuko

  • Nii..

  • i listing this song 10times a day:P

  • 5/5 :)

    thanks for uploading this

  • What's the name to the song?

  • "Bewailing".

  • Thanks :)

  • You're welcome. <3

  • Cool... It's enat to see them in a different art style, too.

  • That song sounds frighteningly like Lia's Tori No Uta from AIR, oy.

  • I love AIR! I love the song Tori no Uta!

  • ....they left out keii-chan T^T

  • I love this video so much! The song is beautiful. The style that they're drawn in is kinda weird, though. Still, I like it.

  • Rika ftw...mion pwns too<3

  • like them better now

  • ...They look so different. O_O

  • i really love this i'm listening to it over and over and over again..i love ther series.<3

  • You have the intestial fortitude of a 5-year old

  • To this day, the part with Shion crucifying Satoko gives me nightmares.

  • The pictures reminds me of Fruit Basket (a little bit)

  • Me too, but only in this video. The style for the anime and the games (or at least in the parts of the games I've seen)'s a bit different, though. Less round eyes, Rena's hair more stylized, Mion's neck a bit shorter (and I dun remember seeing her with furry sideburns before), Rika's bangs more square, etc. I'd say Mion looks most different, and satoko in this pretty much looks the same as she does in the anime.

    Both styles are similar and equally fitting, though, if you ask me.

  • Really? I thought Satoko looked pretty different.

  • I see...so this is a novel,right? or a manga?

  • It's actually a game, and an anime. I believe there is also a manga, but it's harder to get one's hands on.

  • Disturbing... really really disturbing...

    luv Mion~!! she's like one-sama figure but EBIL~~!!

    >:)

  • Mions not EBIL D: No seriously~

  • This preview look awesome. I haven`t seen this before.

    Thanks so much. They series is realy . Great I hope te 2cn as well.

  • I love Rika, Rena and Shion especially, because she's so ebil. >:3 But...ow, the fingernail-removing device looks painful...

  • My fav char is Mion too.. then Shion ;p

  • look interesting...do you the summary of the story?

    I did like to know...

  • A boy moves to a remote village in Japan. He makes friends with 4 girls there. After a few months he hears about some gruesome events that have happened in the village and how his new friends seem connected to them. His friends begin to act strange...

  • My favourite characters are Shion and Rena and Hanyuu. My seconds are Rika and Mion.

    Yes I like the scary freak of Meakashi-hen (episode 16-21) She is AWESOME! And I aslo like the scary freak of Onikakushi-hen (1-4) She also rocks!

  • Sweet. Me favorite character is Mion. She rulz.
