Olymunaai said: Sarukah said: Watched it. Hated it like the rest of it. Am going to pretend Rei never existed. These OVAs were such a sham compared to the rest of the series, its utterly ridiculous. I don't understand why this OVA series gets random hate from people who compare it to the first and second season. The first episode and this episode were both hillarious and a great break from the killing spam, the short Rika arc wasn't that great but the other 2 episodes were fine. I'm going to have to agree with Sarukah. I got plenty of laughs, sure, but in the end the humor was quite dumb and random. The humor in the first 2 seasons seemed a lot more intelligent, the OVA seems to rely on fanservice as its main source of humor *Points at Rena/Takano yuri moment, and general boob pressing scenes/bikini scenes*. In all I'm fairly happy with how it concluded in the OVA. It's nice to see how the characters act outside of the murder situations for once, without fear of more death. |

| I thought Rena would kiss Keiichi T_T That would be awesome but it doesn't happened.. XD I liked this episode <3 Especially the random "angry" rena scenes XD |
 |
| Bout time we got some subs. I loved this episode. ^_^ You just gotta love Rena. |
| did you people really expect that the final episode of rei would have some killings and blood and stuff like that? It was mentioned in the beginning of the ovas that the 1st and 5th episode would be all about comedy. Also, continuing the plot in the ova would just ruin the 1st season and kai's resolution. Btw hearing Hanyuu and Rena's "Hauuuu" is a big relief after enduring 10 episodes of Maria's "uuuuuh" :D |

 Satoko's ulterior motives.I want to see a Miyo x Rena relationship though, it's just so.... marimite... |

| So wait, that's how they fucking end it? Don't get me wrong. I loved both seasons of Higurashi. Rei however was intriguing until this episode. Fansubs took forever and basically after the opening I was basically asking myself "how in the HELL does this pertain to earlier episodes of Rei?". Like, if this was an OVA standstill of one episode, I'd probably give it a 7. Rei overall gets 6. Too much dialogue let up to bullshit with unanswered questions. I am highly disappointed. |

| lol Ooishi is big pimpin'. He didn't even blush ridiculously like Tomitake. This episode was a hau~ overload, but it had lots of Rena, so I'm pleased! But overall, the OVAs sucked... Kind of a huge disappointment. :| |
     |
| haha ... thats hilarious ... |
     |
| Too bad the real Higurashi feeling ended with the 2nd season. Overall, the OVA's are alright and average. Nice to see a lot of Rena this episode. |
 |
| After such a long time finally Higurashi really over. I this episode is pretty good with much of hillariousness in it. Somehow i see Marimite & Saki's parody in this episode lol Well, farewell higurashi, it's now umineko's time |

You should think of episodes 1 and 5 as side stories completely unrelated to episodes 2-4. And Rei wasn't meant to answer any questions at all since this is an OVA. All the questions were answered in Kai. Still, even if it's an OVA, it's a weak ending IMO. |

| I dont wanna call people stupid but people don't realize that this episode was like a satire on the seriousness of the two prequel seasons, i found it very funny, especially when they were playing mahjong and the suspense music was on. XD Then the lesbian twist between tanako and rena and the switches between renas dark and sweet side. The series ended with the second season and like some people say, this is just OVAS and the first and last episodes were great comedy and suspense in between of what could have happened with the story, but it has nothing with the story whatsoever. So Relax and don't take down the rating of a good show just because you are hating. |
 |
| It was hilarious on a retarded level. |
| we need retardness to take out the serious part of the gore anime series that makes us shit our pants XD |
| |
| Well this was an enjoyable OVA of a great series :D |
     |
| I can't believe it's over. >: Hauu~ |
| if we die we'll meet again in valhalla... |
thalandor46 said: I didn't realize the OVA got so much hate. I liked it. Wasn't as good as the other seasons, and I think ending it with the random comedy episode was a poor choice, but overall, I got some good laughs and I enjoyed the story. Same :o Dunno why people hate it.. Probably they were expecting some higurash epicness from first 2 seasons... But oh well ... |
 |
| I liked the OVA -^^- |

 |
| More or less from what I expected, overall it was rather good. |
| This was the best episode of Higurashi Rei imo - simply because it was hilarious. Overall this OVA was a disappointment for me. The first episode was just retarded and wasn't funny at all. And I thought the "serious" episodes weren't very interesting and were too heavy on dialogue and slow. Guess I wanted more lolis killing each other. 6/10 - Fine |
 |
| Loved the OVA, I don't mind blatant fan service. It was pretty hilarious. Also needs moar TakanoxRena :( |
 |
| OMG...This episode owned^^ It was really hilarious... Best were the parody of Rena herself...so great xD Just like the first Rei episode, which parodied many things of the series, just great^^ The OVA was really good, I think. It had 2 really good episodes filled with the awsome higurashi humour (I loved the humour in the real series already^^ It's better than many real comedy series) and 3 episodes telling an interesting story in the style of Higurashi Kai with a nice conclusion in the end. Now I wish for 2 things: First, another Higu-series like the first season, filled with psycho, horror aspects Second, a Higu-series with only comedy paroding the first one^^ Otherworld said: ASR subs are out. But the file size is 714 MB O_o I really wonder why the file is so big. The picture quality isn't even that good^^ Btw, I liked this expression of Rika quite much: |
mrmuk said: I really wonder why the file is so big. The picture quality isn't even that good^^ Hm, I'm glad I didn't get that one and went with the 174 MB one then ;3 I also loved how Rena would randomly do her trademark USODA, expression and all. It caught me off guard the first time she did it. |
|
| much, much funnier than the first episode was. I really enjoyed it. Episode 4 is still my favorite. Rei gets a 7.5/10 from me :) |
| It's a shame that there wont be any more Higurashi episodes =.= , orrrr is there? |
| It's also a shame they ended it poorly. |
| -Fixing- |
| Rena so lulzy. |

| That was a quite nice OVA. Well, it doesnt worth the first season it's better than nothing... |
 |
| I loved the MariMite reference in there <3 Isn't this episode's plot similar to Higurashi Daybreak? Maybe it's supposed to be a parody or homage to it. |
 |
| Such a satisfying ending to the series. Rena confessing to Keiichi was too perfect <3 -nosebleed- I'm so sad it's over!!! |
 |
| Miyo/Rena is my new OTP. <3 |
| rei was awesome. damn i wanna see more of higurashi... they could still make many other stories taking place in hinamizawa. |
 |
| Oyashiro-sama ga Miteru. Brix = shat XD |
| My first novel, Kardia has been published! Click here to read! |
| I guess watching it in raw first wasn't so bad. I kinda felt like I wasted my time watching it with subs the second time. |
 |
| Cute. And... I guess Higurashi is over now... ;________; |
 |
| This was probably the final episode ever for the Higurashi series, however: THIS WAS NOT THE END. The REAL END of Higurashi was at the end of the 2nd season (Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai). These were just OVAs they are not to be confused with the real story which was the first 2 seasons. OVAs are usually done as side stories or extras. Overall the Higurashi Series was amazing, it had great drama, lots of blood, lolis killing lolis and everything in between. Higurashi no Naku Koro ni: 10/10 Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai: 10/10 Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Rei: 8/10 For anyone who wants MORE, go watch UMINEKO no naku koro ni. |
| Funny, light hearted ep. Rena's eyes aren't scary anymore ;]. Enjoyable, but perhaps not fitting to be the final episode of Higurashi? oh wells. Series = 8/10. |
| Lol, this was great. |
| I loved it and was completely satisfied :)...can't help to want to glutonize and want more :P |
 |
| This was the only episode of Rei that I actually enjoyed, to be honest. The first one was exceedingly lame, and the middle ones were downright boring save for a few select scenes. This final episode was just hilarious, though. |

| And Takano's annoying laugh shows up again. It seemed like Rena pulled those nurse outfits out of her ass xD Yoink. But daaaamn. I wonder how many yuri fics are going to be made from this episode xDD (TakanoRena) I liked how Rena always got insane and then switched to cutesy. Stand aside for the epic Rena punch! The episode in all was amazing. Rena switching from one person to another. But they were all talking with telepathy during Mahjong...weird. Then again you never really question that sort of thing in Higurashi << Nice ending xD Funny. |
