Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni OST - Michishirube

[fevimaster]

Lul, the same title as the Katekyo Hitman Reborn ED, but totally different XD

[emeraldhunter1]

I want this song to be played at the moment when I beat someone to death... seriously.

[SaskunaUchiha]

@emeraldhunter1 technically Shion went insane once right? The same events happened but it happened from two point of views: Shion's and third person. One brought the question up and the other solved the questions remaining. So she had Hinamizawa Syndrome once.

[emeraldhunter1]

@SaskunaUchiha twice, she had the Hinamizawa Syndrome twice. Its revealed in Meakashi-hen that she was the mastermind behind the events of Watanagashi-hen.So she did the same things in Watanagashi-hen and Meakashi-hen. So this means:

Keiichi had the Hinamizawa syndrome four(!) times (the hallucination at the end of Watanagashi-hen and Meakashi-hen were also the symptoms of Level 5)

Shion had twice (Watanagashi-hen Meakashi-hen)

Rena once- Tsumihoroboshi

Satoko once- Tatarigoroshi

[SaskunaUchiha]

@emeraldhunter1 (after the first comment) But doesn't that mean in the anime she went insane once, since Watanagashi-hen is from Keiichi/ general point of view and Meakashi-hen is Shion's POV during the same events from Watanagashi-hen?

[emeraldhunter1]

@SaskunaUchiha well not really since Watanagashi - Meakashi are similiar but not the same

In Watanagashi-hen Rika was tortured to death

In Meakashi-hen she commited suicide.

Similiar but not the same. Different view and different fates.

Two arc, two insanity.

[emeraldhunter1]

@SaskunaUchiha But there's also the extra arcs in Higurashi Matsuri (Taraimawashi-hen, Tsukiotoshi-hen, Miotsukushi-hen)

Taraimawashi-hen: Shion goes insane due to the Hinamizawa Syndrome.

Tsukiotoshi-hen: Shion,Rena and Keiichi kill Teppei. Satoko, Keiichi, Rena develop the Hinamizawa Syndrome, and in short they kill each other (LOL).

Miotsukushi-hen: no one goes insane, Takano end up defeated, good end (sounds lame huh? ' 3')

[ErinStovall]

My eyes are watering... T_T This show is so sad! WAH! (XD)

[NSwisher15721]

Did anyone notice this played whenever Keiichi killed someone? Teppei, Mion and Rena... Why? Why the hell would they play such a sad and peaceful song when somebody is going bat-crazy? >_<

[ValentinoSoirez]

Are there any other bass players here that just felt compelled to learn that bass line?

[legolassanimelover]

Man, I loved Higurashi so much... Just watching the entire story unfold and the mysteries slowly being solved... Watching this series was magical. I wish I could forget all of it, just so I could enjoy it the same way I did when seeing it for the first time. :3

[BlackFallenAngel1013]

if you think about it, Keiichi (apart from Takano, Teppei and the usual people) is the most evil, because he was under the (SPOILER) Hinamizawa Syndrome twice. In the first, and third arc. But Shion seems more evil because her method of killing was much more brutal, but she was only infected ONCE!!!!

[emeraldhunter1]

@BlackFallenAngel1013 twice, to be correct (Watanagashi-hen and Meakashi-hen). But they commited the crimes because they were infected with the syndrome, not because they wanted to do it. (Well I think keiichi was sane when he killed Teppei in the third arc)

[BlackFallenAngel1013]

@emeraldhunter1 Yeah, I guess your right... and Keiichi makes up for it by helping Rena when she was infected.. Before I thought that watanagashi and meakashi were the same world, but in different POV, but about a month ago I realised that they may be different, like how Rika died; in watanagashi she may have been tortured, and to escape that fate in meakashi, she killed herself. And I also think that Keiichi was at least at L3-L5 when he killed Teppei, Have you read the VN?

[emeraldhunter1]

@BlackFallenAngel1013 Yeah I read it.

Well when Satoko's uncle came back Keiichi became violent, had sudden mood changes, etc. This was probably L3.

In the VN before he attacked Teppei He heard Satoshi. This is impossible so he probably hallucinated. Thesee are the typical symptoms of L4.

After he killed Teppei He heard footsteps and bacame extremely paranoid. This means he was under the effects of L5.

I think when he killed Teppei he was most likely at the end of L4 or at the beginning of L5.

[HigurashiLei]

@BlackFallenAngel1013 For me I think Rika killed herself cause she thought that if she did that her friends might be saved and she could prevent them from going into that sad fate. And also her own tortured fate.

But it was useless after all.

[TheBladehero22]

@0303alejo Oh, really? I did not know that. I always thought Rena was the bad guy and that Shion liked killing for fun. But I never suspected Mion at all. And BTW he killed (SPOILER) Shion, not Mion. And BTW, he did kill sum1 who really was a bad guy. Teppei was evil. And need I remind you of Rena hostaging every1 in the last episode? That threw me under the impression she was evil. And Shion was crazy. I always thought Mion never did anything. And that's why I hate Rena. So there. Nipah...

[emeraldhunter1]

@TheBladehero22 huh Keiichi killed Rena and MION, not Shion.(and he killed Teppei of course)

[shadowmanover9000]

@emeraldhunter1 who is Teppei

[emeraldhunter1]

@shadowmanover9000 *SPOILERS!* Satoko's uncle and foster father. He's also a yakuza with her lover Rina (The one who were killed by Rena in Tsumihoroboshi-hen). When Rina is killed by the Sonozaki family Teppei returns to Hinamizawa to Satoko's place. Well, in short: He abuses Satoko which makes her mentally broken, and because of this Keiichi kills him in Tatarigoroshi-hen.Hope I helped you. :3

[shadowmanover9000]

@emeraldhunter1 thank you

[TheBladehero22]

This is the song that plays when Keiichi killed Rena, Shion,(not Mion) and Teppei. Keiichi is so awesome. He kills all the bad guys.

[0303alejo]

@TheBladehero22 No, this song is played always After the tragedy, most of the times when the culcript notice his/her mistake, and no, Rena, Mion, and Shion are not bad guys, Mion didn't do anything and Rena ans Shion where just under the (SPOILER) Hinamizawa Sindrome, maybe you meant when Keichii killed Rena and Mion because he tought that they wanted to kill him. Hauu.

[BlackFallenAngel1013]

This song always reminds me of Keiichi killing Rena and Mion... XD I love Higurashi

[hzlblu2]

@SayomiKat

"Keichi-kun... please, it's me, Rena... Trust Rena, Keichi-kun... Believe in me...?"

-Reina Ryuuguu, before her untimely demise.

[yukariminato]

This is a sad song for a sad moment D;

[SaskunaUchiha]

Michishirube= signpost...

[ECHOCHROMATIC]

:(

[AuroraMisa]

This song is so sad. Its the total signal, that the funny and beautiful times, filled with happyness, are over. The picture goes really very well with this song, remembers to the times before all the things goes bad.

[Cerebr0DeH0use]

@francoSk8100 eres muy bonito apesar de que eres jotaku

[TheDarknessShinigami]

something once lost will never return...the humans never appreciate what they have until they lost it

thank for this OST, I appreciate it ;)

[DeerBoo]

Very similar to Monogatari .. :'(

[legolassanimelover]

Can someone PLEASE tell me where I can find this photo?!

[TheStarky34]

man i would give anything just to watch this again not nowing anything about it

[zfish9]

Always reminds me of the last 3 minutes of Onikakushi-hen...

[RubyChakra]

Those pictures....so sad...

[megallicadian]

love that synth base line at the end!

[kattowitz4]

Hinamizawa is a crazy place. Silent Hill can't compare.

[belly8900]

@kattowitz4 I absolutely second that. Compared to Hinamizawa, Silent Hill is Reno, a normal american town. XD

[WickedGrin88]

even 1 year after the last rewatch it tears me up. great series, so sad, so true, every person that can look threw this masquerade of comedy, horror etc. will experience the true association to everyones lives, the good times - and the speed they prefer to elapse...

[xbuster3]

this tune is saddening but its is awesome

[Bridagierz]

This anime had everything. Amazing music and unbelievable story and characters. No wonder this is my favorite anime.

[legolassanimelover]

Quite possibly the best song of the soundtrack.

[1vulpixgirl]

I remember hearing this when Shion was accusing Mion of lying about killing Satoshi and I remember hearing it when Keiichi killed Mion and Rena....

[hydrocelsius]

It took me a long time to search for this one

[backlikevertabrae]

I was searching for 30 mins for this one

[Jblac33]

FOUND IT! ... all I can imagine is Keiichi doing that weird scream... xD

[belly8900]

@Jblac33 oh God, your comment made my day. XDD

[Jblac33]

@belly8900

xD Seriously...what is up with Keiichi making all the weird noises? someone seriously needs to make a collaboration video of all the times he's screamed.

[WickedGrin88]

the scene at the end of the abducted by demons arc where keichan smash mion and rena with the bat is sirious affective

[JuliaPhobia]

@WickedGrin88 Actually, that was Monogatari. This song is from higurashi Kai.

[WickedGrin88]

@JuliaPhobia

what are you talking? ur wrong, look for keichi kills rena mion or something and look for yourself, why they should use a higu kai song in higu season 1 ?

[JuliaPhobia]

@WickedGrin88 Michishirube is Kai's version of Monogatari-go listen to Monogatari and you'll see what I mean.

[JuliaPhobia]

@WickedGrin88 I'm listening to Rena and Mion's beat down and to tell the truth-I can't tell which is which, they song almost exactly alike >_o

[WickedGrin88]

@JuliaPhobia

i hate to agree *g

[JuliaPhobia]

@WickedGrin88 Wait-I think it was Mischishirube that played during Rena and Mion's beat down.I've identified it through the little beats at 1:10.Monogatari played during Teppei's beat down

[WickedGrin88]

@JuliaPhobia

like i said ^^

[WiihaveALIFE]

It's funny how people all look for this one. Just did the same thing.

[Keromimi]

@WiihaveALIFE No kidding... I was searching for this one for quite a few hours tonight. Kind of odd...

[MidnaLoveLinkforever]

An instrumental track that has managed to bring me to tears many times in the past.

[poke4gigigias88]

FINALLY!!! IVE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS ONE!! XD

[Ghostshepard]

@poke4gigigias88 ME TOO! Like, I spent days and hours trying to look for this one! It's the most Epic! When Keiichi kills the uncle and when it's killing time really!

[MidnaLoveLinkforever]

@poke4gigigias88 ME TOO! XD I just spent like an hour looking for this one.

[DarknessDragoonRose]

When i listen to this it puts the image of keiichi killing someone with satoshi's bat

[ocarinafan100]

ive been looking for this thanks!

[Artist4Fate]

I WAS LOOKING FOR THIS EVERYWHERE!

=D

[ThePikafan25]

Kai's version of Monogatari.

I don't think I'll have the motivation to do anythin today........

[GURRGURRGURR]

@ThePikafan25

I know, right.

[ThePikafan25]

@GURRGURRGURR

Man.......I think I'll just go to bed for the rest of the day.........

[ReTRoKiDDe]

*bone cracking* GUAAHH *crack* GRRRAAAHH *smack* GEEAAUHHH *crack* *heavy breathing*........If you didn't get it, watch the very first part of When They Cry.

[Raverque]

this song kinda reminds me of Breath of Fire 3. Love it

[MsYoruichi1]

*takes out a bat and starts smacking rena and mion ith it*muhahahahahhahahhahahahahah­haahahha1!!!!!only I shall survive!!!!

[elkar92]

link to picture please

[Tubarulz64]

This is my favorite track in Higurashi

[ambientclouds]

my favorite track is Youdou

[Relesy]

Played whenever Keiichi kills someone. :) Except first ep.

[PauloFalcao12]

''I want to live happily... I want to be surrounded by my dear friends, and enjoy life as the days go by. That's all I want, and yet... I didn't even wish for anything else, but...

I don't want to die...''

[dlausactor6373]

"USODAAAAAAAAAAA!!! Save him!!! Why didn't you save him?! You had the power to stop it!!! Why didn't you?! Why?! WHYYYYYYYYY?!"--Shion

[TheSupremelyEvilOne]

OMG!!! This is when K1 remembers what happened in Onikakushi-hen and when he dumps teipei remains into the swamp!

[KawaiiOyashiroSama]

The faded memories.. Did we forget Keichii? Did we forget that we had such good friends until they became mincemeat!? And once they're good and gone you remembered! You remembered Kei-Chan!! Maybe if you just opened up to your friends none of this would've happened!

[ninetailedkitsune]

The picture goes so well with the song, its sad tones in the foreground represents the good times they have had slowly burning away, gory confusion and despair is amidst between them, but there were times that it was uplifting such as the rising strings... if it was me, all I would do is smile with tears in my eyes, hoping for a new day to come, where there is no killing.. and harmony shall be there..

Well, those are my thoughts.

:3

[PrincessKite]

saddest song in the series. especially when it gets to the bass in 1:11

T_T

[Emomonkeychild]

[RaidTehWolf]

Keep

Entering

[devilerdude]

[Mike4evermetal2]

No prob, by the way, I can give you a mediafire link to download the full OST from the first season (uploaded by me of course :P)

[gabbytwilightgirl]

love it

[gamer4ever9999]

okay i believe that this song is worth sulking over it

[Cynthia149]

I like it when it gets to 1:10 because it reminds me of a city, possibly in the states!

[finalsora120]

this is also played in episode 4 of season 2 when The Small Blonde Hair Girl (OK there names are hard 2 remember for me =[ ) found Rika dead and she was running away from those guys trying 2 capture her

i just saw the episode lulz

[seiyuki112]

lol it's Satoko,not satoka xD :O

very beautiful song by the way ^-^

[MiniMangaMinx]

oops oh yh

i got a bit exxcited me thinks

XD

[seiyuki112]

hehe XD yeah :D

[gamer4ever9999]

by tha way i wander whats beautifull bout this song its more like sad it played i think when keichi was done butt kicking hojou tenpei(tenpei or tempei i dun remember his name cuz he aint worth remembering) and when keichi kicked shion/renas body with satos club and also if i may remember correctly at episode 4 when after rika died satoko kept running dunno exactly when

[NipahNanoDesu]

this is played when keichii was killing rena and mion on the first arc.

[Mike4evermetal2]

Can you explain briefly what's an arc please?

(I fail in some english words so I get confused)

[NipahNanoDesu]

an arc is kind of like the first chapter of the story.

[Mike4evermetal2]

Oh, so it's like every time they "respawn". Right?

[NipahNanoDesu]

correct.

[simple1254]

this reminds me of resident evil 0.0

[Vipersnakegirl]

I always imagine it raining when I hear this song..

[eafisruler]

Anyone notice that in the center picture, you can see an outline of Hanyuu behind Rika? Anyway, I love this song! It's so sad, yet so beautiful!

[JuliaBernkastel]

What's that bloodied hand in the picture...?

Anyway, what a great, calming song.

[MarilleChan]

In the picture the one to the side that looks like a hand is a broken off higurashi wing

[Raftelfan]

This one was also played after Keiichi killed Teppei.

[DKN117]

It also played when Mion started crying when Shion was strangling her.

[earthalchemistninja]

an wen shion left mion an keiichi an cried alone for satoshi cuz she missed him... :(

[Taylorr1295]

And when Satoko was shaking Keiichi off of the bridge. "How did things get like this?" D:

[KingLes98]

No offense but I hate this song!

They used it when Keiichi kills Rena and Mion when they could of used something way more scary or something! :/

[HiroCascade]

Well, while Higurashi is in the horror genre, it is still tragic.

[LadyTimpani12]

I really love this song. I think it fit how Keiichi hit the highest level of paranoia. And in the end, killed the two people who were protecting him from it.

That scene wasn't supposed to be scary, but heartbreaking, watching a person kill his two best friends out of a false impression.

[Number35Mariko]

Well, I suppose that you are one of the "Violent" Higurashi people... Wich means you are one of those who only likes the violent and bloody parts of the series... But then you are all wrong... The anime/game is all about friends not trusting eachother, peoples beloved ones are taken away from them, people trying to protect people but constantly failing... It's not a violent serie, it's a sad tragic one.

[kiddo9339]

That scene also keiichi didnt WANT to kill mion and rena he just did it cuz he thought he was being hunted down :P that kinda makes sense now that u think of it XD

[KingLes98]

Your right... Which would make perfect sense if they played it RIGHT AFTER Keiichi killing his friends. But during the killing I would of like to see them play something else...

[Number35Mariko]

I don't think so, because during the time he killed them Rena even reached out her hands saying "Belive in me" trying to get K1 to smile, but since he killed her even thru that, it was a sad scene all through. It wasn't a crazy, bloodsplattering scene at all.

[gaasaku24]

love this one.

song's used while shion falls to her death, if im not mistaken

[flamebunny700]

I've always loved this background music.

[HiroCascade]

The picture used is so eerie. I love it. The blood splatters and the edges burning just make the music seem so much more mysterious and sad.

[Botro1]

You just had to read my mind, didn't you? :3

[Gansebord]

You can see Rika's shadow in the left picture as well. (Sort of behind Rena)

[ElMisionero96]

this song is amazing!! :D
