  • is mion carrying a gun in her purse thing??? O.o

  • 12:12. I know she means it as a joke, but in reality, while Mion and Shion are both crazy, shion is CRAZIER then Mion.

  • God, soo much blood O_o this anime gives me the creeps..but, must..keep...watching.....its too good T_T

  • man fuck this!!i thought he died the two girls died too!!wtf could someone please explain !!plz plz plz

  • Hint: Oh no Keiichi if only you'd given that doll to "Mion". D:

  • Keichi:Ah I'm late! Me:Ah you're alive!

  • I thought Keiichi was dead!

  • @cartoonyinsanity1

    Apparently, he was only unconcious and finaly woke up. I'm making this geuss before I'm even watching the episode, so I may not be correct. D=

  • I tought Keiichi was dead!

  • i'm afraid to go to sleep now ._.

  • you can still tell when mion and shion have switched places.

  • omg!!!!! this show is quite gory... i like it.... :| (no i am not a sadistic killer thank you very much!)

  • @musiclover19982012 what do u mean your not a sadistic killer? sorry for my lack of knowing but im only 13 and i dont think i should watch this but ITS A FREE COUNRTY SO WHO GIVES A $H!+?

  • Dude, what the flip?!?!?!! I thought Keichi was DIED!

  • @fruitbaset Well, whenever people die in this show, they are alive in the next show usually because this always shows how the whole thing could've panned out a different way. And the cycle just keeps repeating and repeating.

  • why did it go from horror/mystery to almost romance comedy?

  • is this a diff story form the previous?

    im confused...

  • @justsomeguy4444 i know this anime is confusing but keep watching your questions will get answers you'll see it's really good : )

  • @shannonsurreal

    yeah i got further into it and its great and has awesome thrills, but its still a little confusing.

    i know im asking a little too much, but plz explain the most important parts to me? i think i get most of it... but i want to make sure?

  • @shannonsurreal

    im at ep 17 RESPONSIBILITY (Eye Opening, part 2)

  • i dont get it...

    didnt they all die previously?

    whats going on? is it a totally diff story?

  • @musiclover19982012 keep watching

  • The main character, Keiichi Maebara, moves to Hinamizawa and befriends his new classmates Rena Ryugu, Mion Sonozaki, Rika Furude, and Satoko Houjou. Keiichi joins their after-school club activities, which consist mostly of card and board games (and punishment games for the loser, usually him.) Hinamizawa appears to be a normal, peaceful, rural village to Keiichi.

  • @musiclover19982012 However, the tranquility abruptly ends after the annual Watanagashi Festival, a celebration to commemorate and give thanks to the local god, Oyashiro. Keiichi learns that every year for the past four years, one person has been murdered and another has gone missing on the day of the Watanagashi Festival. Keiichi himself soon becomes drawn into the strange events surrounding the Watanagashi Festival and Oyashiro.

  • @musiclover19982012 In each story arc, he or one of his friends become paranoid, and a crime is committed. Usually, the crime involves the murder of one of their own friends. While it seems impossible to tell their delusions apart from the mystery of Hinamizawa, slowly the truth is revealed.

  • didnt they die im confused

  • is this a continue from the previous?

  • wait, wtf?, didn't all 3 of them die previously?

  • How many ep. are there in this show/movie? :S I want to watch all of them :3

  • @18:29 more like that of the united nations if you're asking.

  • why does the plot keep changing in this show?!?! does it have somthing to do with rika dieing? because i know when she dies she goes to a new world. but seriously, wtf is going on?!?!!?

  • @MichaelVaggieri watch later episodes and you'll see

  • erm, they relive the festival and there is a new victim for each. There is a few questions and an answer in season one, but more in season two i believe. i really should be doing homework, but....what the hell....

  • @Nyanasama so its like part of the curse, why they keep relive it???

  • @741glaceon No, the diffrent arcs are for diffrent character stories, Like the demond away arc was for Keichii

  • OMG I TOUGHT THT GUY DIED wait i guess hez a zombie well then...ok

  • Wait...how does this all go on if he died along with Mion and Rena? This is scary...and creepy... 0.0"

  • @Pieman155

    If i explain it now its a huge spoiler. Just go with it for now.

  • I am so confused right now...I should probably wait until after I watch this episode to ask questions, but WHAT'S GOING ON HERE!?!?!?

  • Hey i thought he killed rena and Mion

  • WAIT A MINUTE WTF? I JUST SAW AN EPISODE WHERE HE DIED AND NOW HES ALIVE AGAIN ?!?!? did they just reset the story or was this before or wth? plz explain O_o

  • @XxhumanxxswordxX Each episode is about something different.

  • @LadyWolfOfHell oh thanks

    OMIGOD, IT'S A FUCKIN' ROZEN MAIDEN.

    FUCKING RUN, KEIICHI; YOU'RE IN TWO ANIME AT ONCE! DON'T LET SHINKU GET HAT RING ON YOUR FING--

    **sucked into the rip that the cameo caused in the space time continuum**

  • @KibasLilAngel I WAS THINKIN THE EXACT SAME FUCKING THING AGHHH :D

  • I want a gif of Mion's face exploding.

  • 9:12

    "If you don't mind, can I have a little crush on you too?"

    "UHYEAH!"

  • "I'm late!" for being dead that is! rofl

  • People that are confused on why they aren't "dead": WATCH THE ANIME. It all makes sense later on.

  • keiichi is a geinus with getting allys and lol even though he didnt win he managed to pull off the punishment game on mion

  • Keiichi sounds like shaggy from scooby doo at 9:11 to 9:16

  • Screw the doll, I want that watermelon in the shop window...

  • who does keichi like better? rena or mion?

  • 7:06 SHINKU?!?!?!?!

  • WTF THEY'RE DEAD!!!!

  • I'm lost. Didn't the twin die at the begining of the episode? Also, from now on, I'm watching this channel over others for dubs. other channels keep misplacing the episodes!!! GRRR....

  • @FoxFind

    It just a different world. O: You gotta watch more to understand. [: Hard to explain.

    Keiichi was going berserk and thinking that Mion gonna kill Keiichi with a syringe but it is actually a marker and Keiichi killed them.

  • @FoxFind

    I was really confused myself, but this is story arc #2: I think this show is divided into 4 arcs that have a general underlying storyline or something that ties them all together

  • Comment removed

  • im confused but they died and there alive i hope this show doesn't go back and forth in time

  • STOP ACCEPTING FOOD FROM PEOPLE KEIICHI DX

  • @xActaNonEchoes YEA DONT DO IT! ITS A TRAP

    DONT EAT IT

  • Oh. My. Gosh

    The beginning made me nauseous. I have a feeling I'm not going to survive this anime T_T

  • "I-it's true! You ARE twins!"

    Well Keiichi, I bet your mind is blown, eh?

  • Heh....I'm probably one of the few people who would make this analogy....but Rika's voice is the exact same as Sugar from Cute Little Snow Fairy Sugar.

  • How did they get back from the dead :OO??

  • @1204bug The story resets every few episodes. It was based on a game that came out a while back that had lots of endings.

  • i red online that the title is higurashi, wish means cicada, and cicada is a game, and another game of killing or something, i get it :D

  • YEAH!!!!! WHAT EVERYONE ELSE SAID!!!!!! DIDN'T KEIICHI AND THE OTHER 2 GIRLS DIE??? Dx confusion...

  • @wreyes456 well this a different arc so thats why

    their are the question arcs and the answer arcs

  • im so hopelessly lost here....does it get understandable at some point?

  • @Toasterpuppet don't worry you'll understand it :D

  • @Toasterpuppet yep 

  • It dose reset for a reason just wait and find out or google it

  • isnt....everyone.......dead?

  • WTF didnt he die in number 4 ?????? he killed himself or sumthing like that what the hell?

  • @nightfury23 I thought the same thing lmao, but there are several arcs in season 1, there's like 3 arcs that leave questions and hint's, and 2 arcs leave answers to those questions. Watch all of season 1, and then watch all of season 2, then you'll understand it. This entire series is like psychological horror mystery.

  • Wait, is the whole story about reincarnations or something? >.>

  • @Vocotaku nope, it's based on a labrynth. If you've watched an anime series called Gantz they explain about a book called Labrynth (it's a real book) it's about living in a maze and they can't get out, it's sorta like that. You'll need to watch ALL of this season, and the 2nd season, in order to understand any of this. Just be patient, I don't want to ruin the series or anything with a spoiler.

  • well sombodys jelous around here....mion is mommy!!!itsteh jelous virous!!!hiroshira!!!over90000­!!!!!!!!!!!spirited nania away!!!!the fuck!!AAAAA

  • Wait...I thought that Rena and Mion were killed by Keiichi...

  • @imblue36752100 the answer to your confusion is a spoiler if i told you XD

  • @kendoan2 - Eh, I don't care much for this anime...TELL ME THE SECRET!!!!!!!!!

  • @kendoan2 PLEASE DON'T SPOIL IT!!!!!!!!!!! I SCROLL DOWN TO THE COMMENTS ALOT AND I DON'T WANT TO BE SPOILED!!!!!!! PLUS THIS ANIME IS REALLY GOOD DO NOT SPOIL IT!!!!!!!!!!!! NO MATTER WHAT!

  • @affectivedreamer It's a taser :)

  • damn thats a sick way to die....

  • I thought he was dead?

  • @ShadeWolf09 it reset everyone is alive again. it does that pretty much every 4-5 episodes. season 2 will help you understand alot more trust me.

  • @JagerClawMind how many episodes are in season 1?

  • @ShadeWolf09 26 episodes in season 1 and 26 episodes in season 2, 6 episodes in season 3 but the season 3 episodes don't have anything to do with the first two seasons at all. Basically season 3 is just a continuance of what their live's would be like after they all live passed the time of the cotton drifting festival.

  • @RaioShii2021 Oh... Well thats still a lot of episodes.

  • This is so confusing.

  • 4 anyone whos wondering "y isnt he died" because u watched the first 4 episodes b4 this these next couple of episodes are story archs and there are alot that dont have anything to do with the others

  • did he died?

  • @runningbeardotjpg Time resets itself when ever someone dies. As you go on in the show it will explain why

  • So when he goes "I'M LATE!!!"

    Then goes "Wait a minute..." I expected him to say "I'm dead" and go back to bed.

    But apparently it's Sunday....

  • @nazunafox LOL C:

  • @nazunafox lol me too 

  • @nazunafox Me too damnit!!

    I've always avoided this anime, but now I've just gotta know what's going on!

  • I KNOW HUH

  • well now that i know Funimation made the name tranlated i dont have to switch websites every two episodes i just have to deal with advertisment

  • 5:22 0_o

  • poor Mion...her poor little heart broken DDX

  • when does the crazy killing come in never mind

  • when does the crazy killing come in

  • this show confuses me soooooo much....

  • So wait, this series rewinds and goes about different points of views for every character?

  • @escasheep97 Not really, the story changes every few episodes, not by a certain charecter's point of view, but by a completely different thing goin' on...Get it? :\

  • Higurashi. It's a show about happiness, friendship, comedy, love, fun, games, conspiracy, murder, psychological horror, and sticking to who you truly are. Or something.

    Higurashi no A.D.H.D.

    When they- Ooh! Fanservice!

  • I Must Be Going Crazy Or Am I Just Pressing The Reset Butten Every Cupple Of Episodes???

    I Think It's Just Me...............Or Is It??

  • a+ man that is exactly how the story goes rika has to die to rewind the world.

  • I'm sorry, but did Mion just say "She's going to be carrying this really heavy hoe the whole time." ?

  • Wait, Isn't the beginning in like Episode 20?

  • he didn't lock the door spoiler:i watched the other 1 and keichii should have given the doll 2 mion.

  • 5:10 SEE?! Guys DO go to the restroom in groups!

  • Not to be rude, but... English Rena makes me want to punch her in the face.

  • "Just like they do it on TV. I came at her at a 45 degree angles and went like this." XD

  • Okay look here every so often a new arc happens and this world and people in it are not related to the last arc. Think of it like hitting the refresh button for a different outcome.

  • keichii's eyes are messed up @ 10:46 O.o

  • Comment removed

  • This anime, originally called "When the Ciceda's Cry" shortened to "When they Cry" is a unique anime in which the story resets every couple episodes. If you watched it somewhere else, they usually label the arcs, and the arcs are almost always unrelated.

    But, there is a twist. One larger than ever thought before. For the series as a whole.

    Anyway, thumbs this up so people know why the story "resets".

  • @DefensorsPacis Thanks for explaining that to people. If this wasn't already up I probably would've done it. X3

    I've been a major fan of this series for a while. You've watched Rei and Kai, haven't you?

  • @DefensorsPacis y does it "reset"?

  • @XDomeMan Not sure, really. Some plots do that. As a matter of fact, I remember Æon Flux, the animation, not the movie, resetting after every episode. Some of the time, she would actually die, and it was a bit of a weird one. Some shows or anime do this, but most don't because they're not always popular.

    Higurashi is popular because of the horror factor of it, as well as the psychological thriller.

  • @DefensorsPacis I do not know why the story restarts so many times. Could you privat message me about it? Or is it to much of a spoiler.

  • @DefensorsPacis P.S I have no Idea if I am even watching the right episodes in each season O.o

  • @DefensorsPacis Ciceda? Or Cicada as in the insect...

  • @DefensorsPacis why does it reset? just to show what else could of happened?

  • @nadaci901 It's easier if you just watch it yourself, but I think part of the reason is in Japan, new anime come out every season, and only a few continue, whereas in America, we run very long anime series and rarely get new anime. Higurashi is a balance between the two, where its the same characters and settings with a different plot every couple episodes. Plus it's a popular theme in Japan.. Resetting things, I suppose.

  • @DefensorsPacis Oh, that would make sense. I read on wikipedia that one channel stopped airing it after episode 13, and thats how long elfen lied was too. Now I get why there are so many short anime series.

  • @DefensorsPacis so i dont get it. the story always resets and it has diffrent endings? can u please explain in more detail.

  • @billjonson123 But, that's all there is to explain, really. It's a horror/mystery anime with multiple arcs and endings, and then the plot resets, and a new arc happens. It used to be something commonplace, and a lot of anime still do it. Take Amagami SS(Still running) for example. It's arcs that last 4 episodes each, each with their own plot but in the same setting.

  • @DefensorsPacis The story resets every time Rika chan is killed so if you watch the second season and ova you will know how it happens...

  • @rika631 if so how come it didnt reset when she commited suicide?

  • @DefensorsPacis

    I hate people who fish for thumbs ups. Whores.

  • @jddeitz2000 I personally don't give two shits what you think about me, but the point is, I only tried to help people and you bitch and complain. You're no worse than me, just another one of the people that talk shit about people that get thumbs up.

    I'm not fishing for them, either way, I'm just trying to help people as I said before, and if it's right there it's a ton more helpful than someone just quoting a line from the video.

    Fuck off.

  • So is this like a flashback?

  • Did they just restart the story differently or something? I thought Keiichi got "transferred..."

  • Okay how can she be a YOUNGER twin sister if she's younger?

  • @RaspberryChanX3 Twins sometimes do that. The last born will be called the younger twin.

  • So let me put this together...in my head. I think I can get this.

  • Comment removed

  • 12:06 umm... no comment? hawt!!! lmao

  • wtf? this is episode 5? wtf.. i'm lost..

  • @RaioShii2021 Yes, this is episode 5. What are you confused about?

  • Comment removed

  • i started off on the completely wrong set of episodes in higurashi and figured it out the 2nd one i watched(:

    yay!

    anyway yes its quite confusing even more so since its in the wrong person's perspective.

    but its awesomefulness!!

    totally not a word^^^^

    XD

    i love anime<3

  • I like how the official name of the opening theme is Higurashi no Naku Koro ni. Just sayin.

  • this part/ version is just like the manga

  • Why does Mion always carry a gun with her? oWo

  • @hawkheart12 i wanna know why she never seems to use it or why nobody freaks out about it

  • @soulreaper12379 it's a pellet gun.

  • This is very random jeez, how many versions to this show are their?

  • Hope she didn't posion it.... WHO CARES!!! 

    Looks like he didn't learn the first time. >.>

  • Fughedaboudit!

  • Fugedaboudit!

  • What's with all the happy sunshine? Not one creepy thing this whole episode..

  • @MadHatterMCR . . . Did you not watch the opening thing?

  • @crotchshot101 Oh yeah that... Well besides that anyway. XD

  • " DONT LIE TO ME! " "STOP BLUSHING!"
