it was alright for me.
liked the logic shiki used for emotions:
"people can only express the emotions they have" ;)

I liked this slightly better than the first movie mainly because it fleshed out the characters a bit more. It definitely gave them more personality... and this Shiki/SHIKI split personality is very interesting. Other than that it was full of stellar animation and sound. 9/10

Yep! It's another KnK movie guys! You know what that means?

10% - Story Progression
1% - Cool fights
19% - Credits + Next movie preview
70% - Boring silence during which absolutely nothing happens and makes me fall asleep.

That's all folks!

As expected from someone who has higurashit in their favourites.

Considering you also gave 5cm 4 and Grave of Fireflies 6, its clear that you are not thinking material. So let me ask you one thing? Why did you try to watch the obvious thinking-material movie classics like KnK?


EDIT: OH lol, Shakugan no Shana S2 and ZnT as 10??? That explains it all lol...

Grave of the Fireflies was very very good from an artistic perspective. It's just that it made me feel so crap after watching it...
You think insulting my favourite shows somehow makes KnK good? Sorry but no.

I agree KnK requires thinking. That's all very nice and all, but the pace is incredibly slow. They stretch it way too much. Maybe you are a slow thinker so this pace seems fine to you? Because it's far too slow for my thinking.

Oh yeah, you don't need to reply to this. As I am unlikely to bother checking this thread again.

I thought it was better than the first. 8/10

mmm, liked the first one better for some reason. This one was good in its own way, though. Lots of unexplained stuff though =O.

8/10

great movie! I give 9/10!
The animations, light effects, fights, etc. were really really great like in the first part.
But this one was really thrilling, it focussed just on two characters and was psycho in a nice way, because you couldn't clearly say if shiki was good or bad till the end^^
My recommendation would be to watch this part BEFORE the first part, because else you know that everything is going to be good^^
Really great one, can't wait watching the next one :-)

Great animation and art like the last one. Next one looks like it has a lot more action and awesomeness.

I agree. But I will give the 3rd movie a try, if it's the same, i drop it.

I've been very curious - and this is not explained in the novel either - who is the boy who approached Shiki at the school hallway (before the singing in the rain humming scene) and said "isn't four times a bit too much though?"?

Shiki was irritated by this remark, and the boy, as far I've watched, doesn't appear anywhere else. So why would he know what Shiki has done?

Is the boy actually (please do not click if you have not watched or read further) Otherwise I can't imagine how he would know in the first place.

Any answers or theories?

It was a little slow, but this time we are shown how Kokuto and Shiki met and some revelations about Shiki. A lot of great character debvelopment as well, still, the movie felt a little boring. Things look like are starting to get interesting though.

It was about time someone said it.

Went back in time for this one. Better than the first one in my opinion. Had more of a plot.

8/10

Come on man... Higurashi is a good anime no matter how you look at it. The story is nice, and the atmosphere is creepy.

I love this series as well, the artstyle, music, story, etc is all absolutely fantastic, and the atmosphere is reminiscent of some of the old Silent Hill games in my opinion.

But seriously, why the hate for Higurashi?

I really enjoyed this movie, better than the first one. I sorta like not knowing exactly what is going on. Can't wait to watch the 3rd one. Hopefully more questions will be answered.

Overall, I gave this a 8/10.

I wonder who that boy is who asked Mikiya if four times was enough...

It's getting good now, gonna marathon this bad boy.

Was just going to say the same thing.



I don't know for sure but I'll put my theory in a spoiler in case I'm right.

I have no idea why , but i lovet this movie XD 9/10 !

Soundtrack and the animations were wonderful. :D
