After getting the power to go back in time as much as she wants, what would she do? Despite of this and for some reason I can't come to understand, in Sotsu she sees that her friend has suffer the pain of thousands of deads and not only she doesn't care, not only she decides to torture her and THEIR dear friends even further, but her only reason to do it is that SHE HATES STUDYING but wants to stay with Rika in Hinamizawa. Normally, she was a caring and loving girl, even more with Rika who is her only family. The only good thing about them is that the conection between Higurashi and Umineko (the other VN from the creator which is in the same universe) is vaguely implied. The last 2 chapters, which were the only original content of the anime and the canonical conclusion to the whole Higurashi series, didn't make any sense and didn't close anything.

The answer arcs didn't reveal anything, they were almost entirely recycled scenes from Higurashi Gou Higurashi Gou anime's sequel had the following problems (which this manga totally fixes): This is the alternative manga sequel to Higurashi Gou, and OH BOY is it better than Higurashi Sotsu. Left in a pit of despair, Satoko's desperation soon turns into something much darker, leading her to do the unthinkable. Soon, her grades start to suffer, and the gap between the two friends continually widens until Satoko is at her breaking point.

But when Rika befriends a group of refined young ladies, Satoko begins to feel isolated. However, she was never really interested in adjusting-as long as she had Rika by her side. Rika's poise and graceful demeanor helps her fit in immediately at the new school, while Satoko struggles immensely.


Satoko is hesitant, as she has never cared about studying, but after years of practice exams, both girls start their new lives at St. Lucia Academy, a prestigious school for well-to-do young ladies, something that is in direct contrast to the crying cicadas and rural nature of Hinamizawa. However, a desire begins to stir in Rika's heart-one that she also wants her best friend, Satoko Houjou, to realize with her. EditSynopsis For a long time, Rika Furude never considered a life outside of the mountain village of Hinamizawa spending every day with her friends seemed like it would be the best outcome she could ever hope for.
