I finally started reading Higurashi again and I'm hoping that the reveal in Episode 6 has a few more layers of twists wrapped up in it. If the "curse" is ultimately an infectious disease I'm going to be pretty disappointed despite things seemingly adding up. Some things, like Keiichi telling the reporter how he was going to die remain unexplained, but I'm going to follow this ride to the end.

e: not even an hour later and I don't trust anything. Rena as an unreliable narrator is playing out pretty well.

I'm in episode 8 of Higurashi and ready for it to be over. I get that it's a mystery game at it's core, but I really dig the horror adjacent sections in the questions arc more than the reveals to the meta-narrative in the answers arc. I do appreciate that the character interactions stay pretty great through the whole story.

I look forward to reading Umineko later down the line though it may be a while before I'll commit to another 8 part saga.
