When They Cry - 1 - The Beginning

[Spectrbanana]

Lol the main character's voice is the same as Gen's from Kekkaishi.

[coolg190]

havent watched anime in like 2 years!!!! and i remember being OBSESSED!!! well i dont want to be obsessed but if i want to start watching again i might as well start with this one (ive already watched it but it love it soooo much >.<)

[hfcworld]

one of the best fuck up animes ever

[MoonlightKitty3]

I love this show i remember when I first saw it!! x3

[thedarkenedwanderer]

11:03

THAT is the moment I knew this show was going to be incredible.

[thedarkenedwanderer]

the 1st episode is the best and the funniest! though when keiichi's eyes widened when tomitake tells him of the murder, that when I got introduced to the awesomeness of the show.

[xawolx]

Best. Anime. Ever. My 3rd time watching it. I just finished watching Elfen Lied and that was pretty good but it doesn't COMPARE to Higurashi !

[Thehorrorfan09]

I like how mion is always getting on to Keiichii about how he treats Rena:3

[cheoleo2500]

5:50 - 6:12 is my favorite part :D

[xxxSakuraxKonekoxxx]

I love the music for the opening theme :)

[thedarkenedwanderer]

@JordanJProd dragon ball z

[cartoonyinsanity1]

It's really creepy how they would be serious and say nothing happened and then pop back to being peppy.

[AldorinaWeeps]

What was the song at the end of that episode, anyone know? :]

[rosieyang97321]

Is there any other ep or vol. I want to watch the whole entire show/movie

[TenshiNeon99]

this is my second time watching and im gonna make my older cousin cry hopefully =D

[owlsandwalruses]

GAH! Someone lower that girls voice!

[BlueKai]

lol KCF xD Kentucky chicken Fired

[741glaceon]

why isnt this on adult swim?

[laughingfurry]

@741glaceon

Because it's too strong for Adult Swim. They did put about six or seven "viewer discretion" disclaimers up for that one GitS episode where a guy cut human skin into shirts. That ep is extremely tame compared to this.

[5476245]

kentucky chicken fried......... rofl

it should be kentucky fried chicken

11:50

[Nyanasama]

"your evil, YOUR ALL EVIL"

oh Keiichi, you dont even know....

[Nyanasama]

Rena's hair.......is different form the manga? i haven't read it in ages XD

The dub is okay, the fact that im too lazy to read subs is over ruling the few bad voice acting....

[metaflux2]

@Nyanasama

The dub isn't too bad, I really like the English dub for Rena. Fits well.

[Nyanasama]

who else loves the opening song but not the animation....? too many flowers XD

[ChaosCallMe]

@Zario01 Actually, I think this was done by Geneon Entertainment, and Funimation is simply redistributing the DVDs due to Geneon handing over their licenses to Funi.

[thehyperannalaura]

I love this show!!

[outcastnapier]

In the immortal words of Admiral Ackbar, "IT'S A TRAP!!!"

[alphabasky]

RENA FORESHADOWING.

[cody7799]

Ahh, such evil women. Got'sta love me come cards. XD

[glitchmaster8000]

the english dubbed voices kinda suck...but the show is really awesome. has anyone ever noticed that mion always carries a gun with her?

[Kate121991]

WTF!!!!!!

[xoxkuroshitsujigrell]

higurashi no naku koro ni !!!!!

[TheOOMOO2]

27 people were forced to dislike this -.- PS: This anime fucking rocks. 2nd time taking the horror story known as Higurashi >:D

[onfireforthelordGod]

@JordanJProd well what else should they be called

SUICIDimation- you should be watching

[KuroCartoonist]

I seen pictures of this show and i said to myself  maybe i should go check this out and it i'm sold.

KFC?! wow it's usually McDonald u see in anime

[gollumbeloved1]

@JordanJProd that's because it's FUN to screw with our american minds!

[SugaryRabbit]

wow this dub is horrid

[gatheringleaves]

@SugaryRabbit

No it's not that bad, people always have to complain about something instead of enjoying it

[gatheringleaves]

Does anyone know what card game they were playing?

[11benano11]

@gatheringleaves old maid

[And502]

15:15 XD EPIC IF YOU FAIL

[Haloprincess117]

"I was at a friggin' funeral, remember?" RoFL XD

[11benano11]

DAMMMMMMMMMMIIIIIIITTTTTTTTTT MUST WATCH SECOND EPISODE MAHAHAHAHAH D8

[Pillozilla]

12:14 Keiichi's.. wrist is broken? D:

[1WEareBUFO1]

I dn't get what all the fuss is about, this dub could be way worse

[gatheringleaves]

@1WEareBUFO1

true, I honestly don't care about dubs more than half the time. Only if the dubbing is really bad, do I watch the subs

[thedarkenedwanderer]

@1WEareBUFO1 thumbs up if you agree.

[LunarSonic]

Beginning = How he reacted when his friends forced him to look at bluewaffle

D: The horror

[titorulez24]

thumbs up if you think rena has multiple personality problems

[cody7799]

@titorulez24

Take a look at the second season :P She does, as does everybody in Hinamizawa. I wont say too much, except 'Hinamizawa Syndrome'.

[devildude9876543210]

@titorulez24 Yeah, but shes cute =-3

[fireflies411]

@titorulez24 Rena = creepy child indeed. 

[metaflux2]

@titorulez24

You obviously haven't seen the second season... I'm not going to reveal any spoilers but if you understood the storyline you would know Rena isn't that crazy. She's sooo cute.

[ganon2009]

@titorulez24 I would hate to spoil it for you but seeing 22 thumbs up really makes me kinda upset. No actually she is a very kind hearted person you will see in the end keep watching.

[KibasLilAngel]

EVERYONE.

AS OTAKU, THIS IS THE MY IMMORTAL OF THE ANIME WORLD. THIS DUB.

IT'S TERRIBLE. BUT YOU MAY LULZ AT IT.

Amen.

[NarutoDude134]

Kentucky Chicken Fryed....?

[blazerx900]

this looks like such a freaking happy anime and then when u get further on the fuckin thing you see freakin ppl hackin each other with meat cleavers like WHAT THE FUCK

[strawbaby20]

lol keiichi kinda sounds like sonic

[strawbaby20]

lol i read the manga first that why it didnt surprise me lol its real disturbing

[SkullLane7]

my tipe of anime! lol i know im only 13 >:3

[gatheringleaves]

@SkullLane7

I don't think you should watch this if your only 13, it might be too scary. You should go watch Bleach or Kekkaishi or something

[SkullLane7]

@gatheringleaves I already watched the parts that Shoin kills people, And the blue small headed girl kill herself, I really laughed so heard! hahahaha! -laughs-

[11benano11]

@SkullLane7 aw nuu why did u laugh when rika died D:

[SkullLane7]

@11benano11 lol! Arnt i just lovly!?

[gatheringleaves]

@SkullLane7

why, those parts weren't funny

[SkullLane7]

@gatheringleaves (\_/)

Bunny face! i say it, ( -.-)

is funny!! Bunny says funny! FUNNY BUNNY!

[gatheringleaves]

@SkullLane7

Nope, Higurashi isn't comedy, dumbass, it's a mixture of horror, mystery, drama, comedy, and suspence somewhat like Death Note, Bokurano, and Elfen Lied

[SkullLane7]

@gatheringleaves Well, I find that comedy, Dumass

[ambientclouds]

@SkullLane7

NOPE, Higurashi isn't a comedic anime it's a dramatic one

[11benano11]

@gatheringleaves oh yeah, im twelve and its not scary enough for me -^ ^-

[gatheringleaves]

@11benano11

Your either lying or haven't seen the whole anime

[11benano11]

@gatheringleaves actually, neither. im just really screwed up from having two older sisters lol

[ambientclouds]

@11benano11

what do your older sisters do to you?

[11benano11]

@ambientclouds mostly traumatize me with scary movies lol

anyone ever heard of the leprechaun movies? yeah, watched all of them by the time i was 6...

[gatheringleaves]

@11benano11

If your twelve you shouldnt watch Higurashi

[Naruluver101]

@11benano11 you're gonna be messed after watching this kid

[iiKawaiiKira101]

xD some one gets killed then flowers

[DicloniusSaeko]

Why can't they have the original japanese version with subtitles up on YT too? This dub kills me inside >.>

[MysteryKid97]

wtfh is happening?

[NarutoDude134]

@MysteryKid97 I don't know man but lets just see the next episode and find out...

[juliaku10]

WOW RIGHT AWAY YOU SEE BLOOD O_O

[akatsukigrl1990]

keiichi reminded me of shaggy from scooby-doo at 7:25

[OmegaPoultry]

Oh God. I remember seeing the whole series. Time to watch it again. HERE COMES THE TERROR!

[OtakuThreeThousand]

I hate this dub so much. I just wanted to see why I left this for the sub.

[ambientclouds]

@nekoXnekoXgurl

then screw off and watch something else, because we dont care and never will

[secondbestgirl95]

It is like i can't stop watching this incredibly disturbing show.

[ambientclouds]

@secondbestgirl95

I love Higurashi, if you don't already know it is a Horror, Mystery, Comedy, Drama

[DarkPrincessFrost]

Waaaaaaattt? O_o

[higurashibaby2]

wait is this a side story from another anime??

[ambientclouds]

@higurashibaby2

no

[higurashibaby2]

dude why does this anime keep repeating itself? i love it but sheesh o.o no real storyline

[MsXxILUVMUSICxX]

can someone explain to me whats up with this anime? cuz ive seen some of the episodes and it started again and i got confused

[secondbestgirl95]

@MsXxILUVMUSICxX there are question and answer eps exploring different perspective.

[ecwchristianfan217]

this anime has triggerd my curiosity i am going to keep watching to figure this out...man this is just like trying to solve the cases in the books i read awsome

[bigboy31991]

ill restare watching this tomorrow since im pretty sleepy because ive been staying up for days to finish my work! XD love the anime!

[darkxnite2]

Didn't expect the dub to be decent, I guess I'll watch this since I can't find any Japanese dubs.

[thedarkenedwanderer]

one of the most disturbing animes ever create, on par with ghost hunt and death note in terms of creepiness...

when they cry is incredible!

[templarabc]

is this mirrored

[lizziebudds]

@templarabc I don't think so. At the very least, none of the text is mirrored.

[Toasterpuppet]

If I was a dog id prolly type WOOF for my comment

[1204bug]

0:00

[Commentguy2]

I LOVE THIS SHOW XD

[rockout391]

they rip off kfc

[ratemaster1000]

the name sounded nice and non gory show starts 0_0 what the h*** is this

[HeyLookADoggy]

-_- i hate these dubs

but o shwell :P

[xXDeathGuyXx]

@HeyLookADoggy

Funimation hurts. REAL bad.

[RaioShii2021]

14:38, she opens the locker and there's a pair of handcuffs... what kind of games do they play with those I wonder? o.O

[Vocotaku]

I'm sorry Keiichi, but I can't take you seriously with that....face....

PFFFTTTT!!!!! 8D

[Snipes5633]

English dubs are weird... it doesn't feel right to me...

[haoujudaiyubel]

@Snipes5633 trust me, most dubs are better then this.

[superanimefan890]

this serie is a little creepy for what reason?

[ZebraCupcake101]

dude it asked me if im 18 years or older.... it must be really gorey >:D

[higurashibaby2]

@ZebraCupcake101 yes and i think there might be a close to naked scene in it ( but i dont think it shows anything)

[imblue36752100]

Finally. English-dub. Even though the Japanese dub is better.

[SoundlyAwakeTonight]

Even though I've watched the entire season I still can't figure out why Rena repeats everything she says.

[JagerClawMind]

im glad this is still here i was worried when i heard the dubbed was banned from america.

[SoundlyAwakeTonight]

@JagerClawMind Where did you hear that?

[higurashibaby2]

@JagerClawMind if it was my world would end\!

this stuff is the shiz! >:D

[sheeprkewldotcom]

where can i watch it in japapnese??? D:>

[SoundlyAwakeTonight]

@sheeprkewldotcom animefreak.tv/watch/higurashi-­no-naku-koro-ni-english-dubbed­-online-free

[xActaNonEchoes]

I love this show. In all of its quirky, adorable, psychotics :3

[SuperWiiCubeBoy64]

ok i get why this is rated ma but i still dont get why hetalia is ma

[SuperWiiCubeBoy64]

i remember watching this when it was only subbed and the last time i watched it was the ova series and now im back,

ahh that was way long ago when i was only 7 i was such a good youngster

[SuperWiiCubeBoy64]

@SuperWiiCubeBoy64 or was it 8 im 12 rite now

[SoundlyAwakeTonight]

It will all make sense later :)

[BoneMan716]

Man, watching the Dub after the Sub makes my skin crawl....in fact, my throat itches a little too...

[SpecialHelmet]

Keiichi got deflowered

[SpecialHelmet]

Satoko is the only person in the world who can pull off a fanny pack

[mrtoontown]

As long as they're cute it doesn't matter if they kill.

Remember that kids.

[silverpyro19]

psycho adorable killers have a General Sanders fetish, remember that.

[Crimsonite20]

damn when i first saw this i thought it would be some cutesy anime by the animation but damn this is disturbing and sad, ill watch it

[ambientclouds]

@Crimsonite20

damn you better watch Higurashi or I'll come to your house and beat you with a baseball bat!

[Crimsonite20]

@ambientclouds

relax Keiichi I'm up to the episode where Shione had her fingernails removed in order to save Satoshi

[xT3knOpath]

11:56 HAUUUU OMOCHKAERIII

[BlueChan100]

@ 8:12 Keiichi sounds like shaggy from scooby doo.

[BlueChan100]

Guys, Geneon dubbed this. Funimation just bought the series out when they shut down or whatever. Funimation MIGHT dub season 2, with their awesome voice actors. It all depends on the sales of this season. So buy the dvd box set everyone!

[QueenDemonEtna]

my first time watching this and i already like it

[xT3knOpath]

@QueenDemonEtna The subbed is SOOO much better

[ShadeWolf09]

He has trouble finding home? Or does he live at the center of town?

[Altarion43]

Keiichi = Rin

Rena = Kaede

Mion = Asa

Its a good thing i liked Shuffle!

[TheBleedingLullaby]

LOL I remembered when I first watched this anime I was all like:

This anime is gonna be great! All the characters look so cute!

Ewww advertisements.

Okay, Funimation. I'm watching, no need to worry. ;)

Okay so it's June 1983....

AHHHH WTF?!?!?!?!

[viperxraptor2001]

@TheBleedingLullaby the Fat Aussie Barstard says "FARKIN ADS!!1!"

[AnimePheonixChick137]

Lol Kfc....

[theonewhocomments]

15:20 creeped me out o_O

[inutiasha]

i wish i could live in a more peacefull area like that rather than where i am now...sure i have a fuckload of friends but...too stressfull

[theonewhocomments]

@inutiasha I used to think so too... till I read this manga. O_O

[BlueChan100]

@inutiasha umm...i wouldn't say that place is 'peaceful'.

[inutiasha]

@BlueChan100 trust me... that's peaceful compared to were i live

[BlueChan100]

@inutiasha no, you trust ME. It's wise to stay far away from Hinamizawa...unless of course, there are druggies, drunks, murderers, rapists, etc. flooding the place...no, it's peaceful! >.>

[inutiasha]

@BlueChan100 well my area is like this so yeah, this would be a major upgrade

[XxXRainbowXxXBear]

i freakin love this show!!! >.<

[dlmora12]

I was expecting a nice anime at the beginning then all of a sudden. BOOM!!! BLOOD EVERYWHERE! I wa all like O_O *completely still*

[ShadeWolf09]

@dlmora12 same here. I read description though.

[thedarkenedwanderer]

@dlmora12 i love this anime so much! now Im behind in schoolwork!!

DAMN ITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!

[Heemsky]

@dlmora12 omfg me too xD

[xActaNonEchoes]

@dlmora12 Yeah... Get used to it... XD

[Ultimokingofblades]

@dlmora12 Welcome to the world of When They Cry. It only gets worse! ENDURE THE CRAZY STUFF! THE END IS WORTH IT!

[blazerx900]

@dlmora12 LMFAO SAME XD

[YnangelGOTH]

8:10 Does that mean he just got deflowered?

[YnangelGOTH]

Oh wow, I've never heard the dub before and I've watched this series(actually, all three series) for years now over and over.

1) Keiichi's voice isn't that bad...okay, I take that back.

2) Rena's is too... high pitched? At least they kept her repeat thingy that she does.

3) Mion's voice pretty good... okay, taking that one back too. It was good until she talked in the school.

4) Rika and Satoko's voice........kill me now. But Satoko's laugh is perfect.

5) Tomitake's voice okay.

[aiman24]

as a hardcore fan of Higurashi(and the whole series), i find the dub in very very very bad taste...

I felt like vomiting when Rena started talking =[

why? :'(

i can't believe this.

[lol4dead]

"Fried chicken place?"

THATS KFC YOU DUMB BASTARD.

[xT3knOpath]

@lol4dead

Lol. They probably couldnt use KFC because its licensed. 

[Strokedatdick]

I hate the dub...

[shovethissite]

10:50

Hehehehehehehe-- It's funny because it's true!

[MaraiyaSama]

that short haired girl is extremely creepy O.o

[TheBleedingLullaby]

When Keiichi was talking about the dead body, did he mean to say that as a JOKE??

[TheBleedingLullaby]

HOORAY FOR PINATAS!!!!

[IcyDeath7]

KCF? lol

[IcyDeath7]

KCF?

[xVANAmania]

Oh damn, I usually like dubs better than the Japanese versions, well, some of the time, but this is terrible. :[ What a shame, this show is awesome, couldn't they have possibly found a better cast? D:
