  • I slowly start to drift off with this song

  • I love this song. C:

  • Love this song! But I felt a chill when I locked eyes on rena's stare ⊙︿⊙

  • Came here from Cupcakes, Lavender Town, Jeff The Killer/Go to Sleep, and username 666.

    Need. To Lay Off. The Creepy Shit.

    NOW.

  • This song makes me feel bad for Rena and the others. They were trapped in a nightmarish loop that wouldn't end for god knows how long......

  • I want to watch this anime and at the same time, I'm a little too scared too....

  • @SatanHarmonia if you look at the anime you notise that the anime isnt really that creepy!

    i dont think that it is so creepy!

  • @SatanHarmonia If you can handle Elfen Lied, you can handle Higurashi.

  • Quite a beautiful yet eerie song. It's made more powerful by the image of Rena with that creepy look in her eyes and with a background of her shadowy figure holding her cleaver.

  • "Hi Rena, I see you have some spare time on your hands, so I thought I would like to ask you on a da... Oh, your mind seems a bit too occupied right now, I will ask later then."

    *walks away*

    *gets stabbed in the back*

  • Piano sounds a bit like in game "Penumbra".

  • She watches him. Watches him from far behind the telephone booth. The blood, splattering everywhere as he rips apart his throat.

    "Gomennasai...."

    She's powerless. Only watching the deaths of those who succumbed to the Syndrome over and over. She steps forward, pressing her small hands against the glass.

    "Gomennasai..."

    He can hear her, she knows it. But he's not listening now. Because he's dead, crumpled into a little ball on the floor of the booth, the phone line hanging empty.

    "Gomennasai..."

  • This timings me of Hell Girl/ Jigoku Shoujo

  • Rena is just staring into your soul in this picture. O.o

  • Gomennasai.. gomennasai.. gomennasai...

  • luv it

  • Load last checkpoint, Rika.

  • It must be an awful feeling to have an unproven conspiracy against you. You cannot grab on to that what is not visible. So there is no logic, therefore there is no fundament to stand on. You're sinking away in insanity.

  • ok this is the SOLE anime that deprived me of sleep from fear..Evangelion deprived it because I was too busy looking for subbed since the dub = crap

  • This is one of those anime where I watched it because I loved the hauntingly good soundtrack. But instead of being like Genesis of Aquarion (weird, but decent enough for a mecha show) or even Code Geass (very good, but I like mindscrewy shows), I did not sleep for DAYS after watching Higurashi.

    I'm okay with gratuitous gore in the Elfen Lied style, but something about Higurashi REALLY got to me.

  • @TheRogueVocaloid maybe because pretty much everyone dies.

  • I love walking home at night with this music playing :D

  • "The file link that you requested is not valid" Kind uploader, do you mind helping a guy out here? :3

  • @AttackOfLink Take the link to this video, then go to youtube-mp3 . org and then enjoy x3

  • @RyuzakiFan1

    After finding this site, I am now no longer using vidtpmp3 . com. THANK YOU.

  • @AttackOfLink I used to use vidtomp3 too... The one I gave you is indeed a lifesaver :3

  • The psychos in this anime would be Chaos's last line of defense in Dissidia: Final Fantasy.

  • So sad, creepy, and peaceful.  00-

  • I always hear footsteps and my name being called when no one is there. Does that me me insane? *starts scratching neck* ^__^

  • @FluffyIzAwesome The first time a heard this song I was in study hall at school. I began laughing historically.

  • @DevenDDD123 "historically" as in history?

  • @FluffyIzAwesome That part grossed me out x3 Nobody likes maggots comin' out of their neck O^O

  • Love you Rena <3

  • my new ringtone

  • isnt there a new one called "higurashi no naku koro ni kira"?

  • @XVIChrisXVI Yes, an ova series made to celebrate the anniversery of the origional. It's purely fanservice, i've only seen the first episode and it was really perverted.

  • @notpoorsmeagol

    Shows how much of an idiot you are considering that episode 1 is the only one with major fanservice.

  • @notpoorsmeagol

    yes it was peverted but that was only the first ep, the other eps were as amazing as the others and just as sad

  • @notpoorsmeagol You should watch Rei fully before you comment on it. That first episode was perverted ( I skipped the last bit of it cuz it was getting on my nerves lol!), but it sets up for a really good question, and answers it in an easy-to-understand kind of way. I could tell you what the question was... but it'll ruin the fun for you. Rika's feeling during the first season and Kai can be substituted for that first episode, so just skip it. 

  • @XfishX I was talking about Higurashi Kira, the second OVA series. Rei was good, but Kira is 100% fanservice, the first episode is about keichi fantasizing, in the second they all get turned into magical catgirls, and i havn't bothered to watch any more episodes.

  • @notpoorsmeagol Hehe... My bad! I heard Kira wasn't very good... One of these days I'll watch it anyway.

  • that call... my ear ... this song ,, I call that song

  • when i saw the opening for the first time i thought it was about twins where one of them is a vampire. (yes i thought rika and rena were twins and rena was a vampire because in the opening she ws licking the bood on her hand). then i watched the anime

  • This brings back memories of the first season... Haha, at least we now know that Keichi is obsessed with hitting people with bats.

  • What this says(note, I have not seen this anime):

    You don't belong. You have betrayed us. Get out now. I don't care where you go, just go now. And never ever come back. Refuse or come back, and you will die. Get out of my sight, devil!

  • Oyashiro is watching you. O.O

  • you know... Rika is Lady Bernkastel from Umineko No Naku Koro Ni se here she is important and when we see her as a witch... it tells much about why higurashi has ust even started i think

  • God, this song is so hauntingly beautiful. Every time I hear it I want to cry

  • I don't know why but when i listen this song then i cry or i want to kill somebody or myself with a knife,and this song was a really bring me back in a good old time(summer) when i watch this anime first! really amazing! i love this anime so much:)<3.

  • O.M.G This anime is so awesome and this song...this feeling<3 this is my favorite anime!!! for sure!

  • 31 people with the the Hinamizawa Syndrome misread the "Dislike Button" for the "Like Button"

  • @TheNavras66 Don't worry, they've all been murdered in gruesome ways. And then brought back to life and murdered in even more gruesome ways. Again and again... :D

  • I feel like I'm in a box.No one can hear me.No one can see me.My mind races back and fourth,on rainy days,on sunny days.My happiness was shattered and there is no escape.I think I'm changing,going crazy.No one to hear my cries!No one to see the pain! They're coming!STAY AWAY! DON'T! I can hear the footsteps,Oyashiro!He's coming.Oh God please help me!Kill me now! AHHHHH!

  • Feels like a movie without pictures. I can see through through the first half of the song a destroyed world. There is nothing left, nothing but a girl in the middle of a dead land. 1:37 she realizes what she has done, what she has caused and regrets it from the bottom of her heart, while surrounded in darkness. 2:17 She wants another chance, to prevent the tragic ending, starts using the power to "Rewind". Live slowly comes back for another opportunity and now their fate must be defeated.

    :D?

  • @dragoncrashhero12 YOU MY FRIEND, SHOULD BE A FILM PRODUCER =D

  • @dragoncrashhero12 A little girl destroying the world? Reminds me of Alma from F.E.A.R....

  • @dragoncrashhero12 O________O

  • any1 got killed yet? i think i died... but this song brought me back.........

  • I love this theme^^

    it´s creepy ^^

  • listening to this + the rain sound~!

    *goosebumps*

  • What the heck is an ova I don't get what any of you guys our talkin about something with a ova here an an ova here so what in the world is being said around here

  • @zeusbox123 an ova is an add on video after they were done with the real anime, it adds to the story about somthing they never put in the regurlar anime so dont be suprised when it has nothing to do with the storyline

  • @zeusbox123

    OVA means Original Video Animation.

    Also, Pro-Tip: Google is your friend. Don't expect to get far on the internet without it. :P

  • As for Rei and Kira: Rei had an interesting story idea in the original VN, which hasn't been translated... and changing *anything* will make it suck. Since DEEN's version of Ni and Kai already has some issues, I'm wary of watching Rei...

    Kira's first OVA is apparently just fanservice, but looking at screencaps was enough for me to figure they went WAY too far, lol.

    The 2nd OVA is going to make Rika a mahou shoujo... which is WTF. They should've used Chie-sensei instead. That would work.

  • Sitting here, listening to OSTs and reading the Atonement arc...

    Best day ever.

    Thank you so much for posting <3

  • This reminds me of Casshern Sins<3

  • I want to go on my sadistic killing spree to this song! <3

  • Rena *___*

  • what is the name of this anime?

  • @Serveross is Higurashi no naku koro ni. A good anime!

  • @RokuKisa A VERY good Anime :)

  • @DespiseHumanity I for one LOVED both, but I liked higurashi better. It all depends on what you like. It'll be ten times better if you don't spoil it upon watching, and watch the second season. It's really a very wonderfully crafted anime.

  • Open a new tab

    go to youtube

    Type in the following:

    The sound of rain w/o music

    Click the first vid...

    Enjoy the creepy master piece ;)

    RAIN GOES WITH EVERYTHING AWESOME!

  • @EvThreadNerd OH MI GOODNESS IT DOES! O.O

  • @EvThreadNerd omg, your right!!

  • @EvThreadNerd I went ahead and made a video response of this song mixed in with audio of rain. Enjoy :3

  • @EvThreadNerd It sounds more like piss. :c

    Give me a good thunderstorm and it'll be fine.

  • @EvThreadNerd U sir,win the internet.

  • @lnvaderRobyn sorry to burst ur bubble but.....IM AN AWESOME GIRL!!!! teehee~

  • @EvThreadNerd lol, considering that this is Higurashi here, the rain sounds more like blood spattering O_O

  • LOVE IT! its such an awesome. sound

  • LOVE IT! its such an awesome.

  • I loved Elfen Lied. I wonder if I'd enjoy this c;

  • I like this anime but i dont get it. Is it just lots of variations of the same story??? like what could have happened or what would have happened if she was the murderer?

  • @SomeGuyWithAnOpinion You find out what the hell is going on in the second season.

  • @SomeGuyWithAnOpinion each arc is from another character's perspective

  • I've watched Elfen Lied and loved it, this anime looks awesome, I need help, should I watch this anime or no???

  • @bobetteboo

    I love Elfen Lied, and even watched this before it. You will really enjoy this anime if you liked Elfen Lied. Go for it!

  • Best anime ever with the worst ost's ever

  • @DFLOODyeaa WHAT?!!? Even people who hated the anime loved its soundtrack. It adds so much to the FEEL of the anime and makes the whole thing even more unreal than it already is...

  • Best horror anime I have ever seen. I am soooo watching this over again&again&again. ^.^

  • Damn i just love this song it makes me feel that all my desires already come to a reality feels nice

  • I liked higurashi no naku koro ni more than kai, rei or kira. it had this weird attractive feeling to it that kept me wanting to know what happens next.

  • I miss "old" Higurashi, Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni and Kai, that mysterious atmosphere, horror, tragic characters, song of cicadas, strengh of the friendship, and in the end - hope, that Rika will final break her fate and save all of her friends. Not some shitty Rei and Kira, what are only 'fanservice' in maih opinion. No offense to anyone. :) Well, maybe I can watch them again~

  • Comment removed

  • @Pantalaimonish just watched the last kira episode...and yes, Rei and Kira are fanservice;

    Gimme back my chills and creeps...gimme back the real higurashi

  • @Pantalaimonish they are solely for fan service. XD which makes me sad. I tried to give the benefit of the doubt and say "oh, no, they are just trying to balance the anime by showing the perfect world for Rika. but now it's just gone way too far. ><;

  • @Pantalaimonish So? What did you expect from the spin-off series? The first two seasons finished the arc, explained the mysteries and changed the future. The only thing that could continue from that would have been bad plot devices to send Rika back into the loop, or fan-service. I take them for what they are and don't let them ruin my opinion of the original arc. They are just a bit of light-hearted fun, and if you can't handle that then just ignore them :P

  • omg I'm here from the Amnesia mod: White Night :O

  • higurashi has a lot of sides...

  • I like this anime but i dont understand anything. I been watching 10 series now and its all different stories every serie. I mean the main guy the boy dies a coupple of time then in another episode where its a different story hes alive. Can some1 explain to me what the story is about?

  • @XDHiPotionXD I doubt you want it spoiled for you - if your that desperate watch the second season (Kai), it has all the answers.

  • @XDHiPotionXD In Higurashi, there are question arcs and answer arcs. The question arcs (such as the first four episodes of the first season) tend to go by quickly with very blunt violence and psychological themes. Basically, they're the "shit hits the fan" arcs (xD). Answer arcs (like episode 5 to episode 20something in the first season) explain how we got to that final climax point in the previous question arc. So, it'll often go back into the past before certain people died. :)

  • one of the most misunderstood animes ive ever seen veryy deep meaning to the story and theme

  • Is it safe to download it though?

  • @00REfan00 Yep. Perfectly safe. c: I download songs all the time off of Youtube. :o

  • So sad.... T-T ! That's so beautiful but creepy ôwo

  • Wpw i found this by accident..so this iss where the sample came From !!

    you say the anime is good i might take time a see what its about..becoz naruto keeps me waiting to long

    every week :/

  • Okay.

    Total mindlapse here.

    It's been so long since I've seen this anime...

    What's the problem with scratching your neck again? I know it has something to do with the Hinimizawa Syndrome. But the only symptoms I can remember from THAT are extreme paranoia and hallucinations. Grr.  *Scratches head and frowns*

  • @NSwisher15721 The Hinimizawa Syndrome would cause you to hallucinate and basically go batshit crazy. It would become worse and worse if its host was antagonized. In the final stage of it, the host would tear out their own throat with their hands/nails (neck scratching was common before that happened).

  • @SirLancelotTheDark Oh, okay. Thanks!! :)

  • This is going to be played at my funeral O_O

  • @MimiuMonster Lol I want it played at MY funeral too. XD I'LL COME BACK AND KILL EVERYONE WITH MY CLEAVER. MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

  • I find the theme relaxing actually...What's wrong with me *scratches neck*

  • Higurashi: media that fucks with your mind! Est. THE BEGINNING.

  • i'm going to play this at night on Halloween >:D

  • just a big mindfuck...

    

  • if i ever go on a serial rampage

    im totaly making my victim lisen to this song before they die

    BUAHAHAHAHAHA

    MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHHAH

    remember kids

    theres no Slaughter without Laughter

  • Okay. I'm going to be honest. I LOVE THIS ANIME!!! and the game looks fun haha. I like the songs to. I think it shows everyone's crazy side if they watch it. It did mine and i realized how crazy I was lol

  • Pf.... it's ot bad anime after all. 7/10. Music 8/10. that's my favourite ost! About anime, this is not great, bu good, the dinner was tasty like always with this film(:

  • Mind Rape: The Song! =D

  • Would somebody teld me about this anime.

  • @horroravgn well,its scary but its the best anime ive ever watched with really scary and gore scenes but sometime cute moe scenes ^^

  • a story to haunt your memory ~ and a song to stir your heart

    that is "When the Higurashi Cry"

  • @Dragoseye Its just Higurashi: When They Cry.

  • @TetrimStudios I was translating it directly from it's japanese title. i was trying to make the comment match how i felt while listening to this, but I suppose I shoulda stuck with just typing the japanese title. =\ now I will have at least 5 more ppl correcting how I wrote that...

  • @Dragoseye Oh... Sorry about that then. Great song though, isn't it?

  • The link's not working, could you tell me the name of this song?

  • @LadyEarth87

    I'm pretty sure it's called AI, or just Main Theme.

    If you want the song, just paste this in vid2mp3 . com

  • as soon as the song starts play rainy mood as a little bit lower volume than this song makes it a little better but i could listen to this with or without the "rain"

  • This anime shows what a person is capable doing when drove into a corner with no way out.

  • the link has failed me ;(

  • The best anime i have ever seen!!!
