It’s good to see that Higurashi hasn’t lost its ability to shock.īelief is a hell of a drug and that’s kind of where this volume’s journey goes. but even Rena realizes that she might not be the most reliable narrator around in terms of what’s going on. This arc starts with us learning the reasons why, as history repeats once again, though maybe not how we usually think of it in this series.Īnd it’s effective! This series has certainly never shied away from body horror and just when I thought I had seen everything. It’s fair (and, if I’m honest, incredibly mean of me) to say that Rena’s always been a few cakes short of a bakery display window. Rena’s desire to protect things might better be termed an obsession and is protecting anything in Hinamizawa much more than a pipe dream? Rena’s always come across as the most unsettling character in the Higurashi series, just because her mostly cheerful demeanour tends to slip now and then to show what’s underneath.
