Not sure if I'm right but isn't this umineko mansion? in this pic https://imgur.com/a/f4r4pml I think that is St. Lucia, which would make sense considering what is happening in these episodes now. |

It's probably the school. But it does look a little like the Alchemist Rokkkenjima Manor. https://07th-expansion.fandom.com/wiki/Ushiromiya_Family_Mansion |
| You know shit going down when the show skips the OP. |
 |
| Shion only gets a namedrop and Satoshi is still deadin a coma. Yay. That whole prison scene is ridiculous especially with Rika didn't even ask anything about Satoko being missing in class for DAYS. Of course, instead of talking like proper friends, they're just being angsty with each other until Featherine appeared and messes everything up. Quality writing over there, folks. Oh well, only 4 episodes left so who cares. |
| Holy shit, she's in 5/5 |
| Wow, I really like this arc. It has passed a lot of time since I enjoyed something in Higurashi, well more precisely when I finished Kai the first time. But now it's confirmed that this is related to Umineko so it seems I will need to read the manga. |

It wouldn't surprise me if it's the basis for both the academy and the manor. |
| Damn, that might be my favorite episode so far that was fantastic. Keiichi got that drip though, we've been robbed of swimsuit Keiichi though lmao. I don't know if Rena's VA slipped out of character when she was calling Keiichi cute but either way it sounded so genuine, it was so good. What kind of fucked up school got a prison, Jesus. Virgin St. Lucia student vs Chad Keiichi, Keiichi survived all those traps of Satoko like a tank. But, it's cool to see how dangerous Satoko's traps actually are if you're not Keiichi lmao. It's so good to see them all grown up, and Rena is loveable as always. That ending though, let's fucking go. Well, looks like your wish is coming true Satoko. |

willwallner said: Hey! I just joined this forum because I have this theory which I wanted to get some opinions on. After this episode, its pretty much confirmed Aurora is part of the story, so I was thinking maybe the point of this new series will be to show how Rika becomes Bernkastel and how Satoko becomes Lambdadelta. Am I crazy for thinking this? I first thought about it when Rika seemed trapped in the loop for what seemed like an endless amount of time, which is something Bernkastel talks about in umineko, the made me think that maybe the characters were related? They definitely are connected. Its unclear if the Bernkastel we see in Matsuri is the same Bernkastel from Umineko. If that is the case then she already exists. Takano gets her certainty from Lambda so she already exists. |
Chargecoulomb said: Bernkastel was literally stated to be born from the the girl who wanted to become a god "game", so dunno why people over-complicate this. Why would there be 2 Frederika Bernkastel lol?willwallner said: Hey! I just joined this forum because I have this theory which I wanted to get some opinions on.

Auron_ said: Why would the late stages have to travel back with her when she's already a terminal patient at every single fragment she's travelling back to anyway? She is not THAT far gone in every single timeline while she's still getting treated by Irie and playing around with everyone that she can't realize what she's doing. We saw her go crazy in the original and be more or less fine (with treatment and all that) at the start of the next timeline. I don't see how you can explain all of this with the syndrome. She's also not constantly scratching at her neck as another piece of evidence. Auron_ said: My point was that if meeting somewhere outside the campus is not easy due to regulations, and inside there's like half a dozen posh girls accompanying Rika at any given moment, who disapproves of Satoko's lack of ojō-sama etiquette, displaying hostility, excuse me but she's not gonna be super approachable even if she did want to confide in her. Except those girls would for sure leave for a few hours if Rika told them she had something to do that afternoon. It's true that if Satoko wanted to be with Rika all the time she'd have to try to fit in with the group but to get her away once in a while? 100% that could happen. Especially later when Rika offers to help her study. I doubt those girls would even want to be around for that. Auron_ said: Could Satoko alter her behaviour in such a way that'd make it less offensive to the ojō-sama's? Sure, but Rika could've absolutely done more as well, like asking her adorers to be more accommodating towards Satoko's mannerisms even if you don't agree that it's how a proper lady should be acting. That only applies if Satoko was making an effort to hang out with them but those girls were trying to push her out of the group for not being ladylike enough. As is with Satoko not even wanting to be around them, what they think of her doesn't even matter unless they start spreading rumors or constantly badmouthing her which from what we saw wasn't even the case. Rika did plenty in my opinion to not be responsible for anything that happens from here. Satoko is the one refusing to grow up or adjust to her new environment while also refusing to drop out or talk to Rika about it, instead opting to just destroy her life and trap her in a never ending nightmare but Hinamizawa Syndrome (in some vague sense) so we can just excuse all her actions and character flaws forever and she's never at fault for anything. MightyM17 said: If a long time best friend of mine talked about our long time away from each other so casually and offered to make "some time in the afternoon" for me as if it's some menial boring task I wiuld get extremely offended. Perhaps you never had friends but what Rika did there to Satoko was extremely insensitive even if her intentions were good. Well tough shit I guess. Welcome to the real world where people have responsibilities and friends you've hardly spoken to over the past year can't on a whim drop everything to take care of your little temper tantrum. But I guess you should just lock that friend in your basement and torture them as long as possible since we unfortunately can't reset time here. |

| I have no idea what's going on. |
| This anime becomes really good in the last few episodes since around 19. I don't think all the stuff before was necessary material to include and most of those weren't especially well done, but now it's very interesting. Rikka really begs for getting murdered, she became a ... Why would she cut her connection to Satoko just like this. She is so indifferent now, you might think she became possessed. It was cruel to put Satoko into a cell for weeks, because of one accusation, but ok she did that. Still hard to watch when she was mentally unstable already. In some schools they should install prison cells today but is a different story. Meeting with the old friends was odd, while the others were fun like always. Rika and Satoko became strangers. I didn't know about Featherine, but reading previous threads gave me so much information already, her appearance scene was so cool. I don't know if I should look forward to the next episode, with this Rika version I have no pity at all, but when I remember that previous infamous scene with all the icky stuff, I don't think that is the right punishment either. |

| I feel the drama is exaggerated. Satoko could just ask Irie she wants to drop out or transfer schools.. and that would be the end of her problems with St. Lucia. dropping things from that high is not a good joke.. I was laughing when Satoko got jailed. Rika finally have her dream come true. Respected by many, and living a life of comfort in a high class school for rich people. |
| these past few episodes have been pretty good, probably because it is a brand new arc that wasn’t in the previous anime adaptation |

| I can't believe Mion didn't make a single progress about her crush on Keiichi after all these years. Disappointed but not actually surprised XD I can't believe they butchered this game so much. This is actually one of, if not the funniest batsu game in the whole Visual Novel. Idk if ppl are pretending not to see it, but their house was destroyed. Satoko had thoughts of returning to her old life, but it was too late. Sure, she could still return to the Houjou's house, at the risk of Teppei showing up at any moment, and I don't think it'd be the same thing. She's not fond of the memories she had in that house, contrary to when she lived with Rika. |

They were together in this but it seems like Rika gave up on Satoko even tho they promised that they will go together trough this and just transfering would mean that all of her efforts were in vain and also get separated from the one that is closer to her like a sister. Not cool Rika....not cool at all. |

Syureria said: THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- The jealous Satoko is now starting crazy for now. June 1987 Rika really became a princess on school. Satoko's reason for entering St Lucia is because Rika asks Satoko to go with her and spend time with Satoko. However, Rika ignores Satoko. Satoko seems to be jealous and in trouble. After all, Satoko is very good at trapping so you have to be careful. Still "I Believe what you say" i hope there's new OP but this op not bad either. Rika prefers her reputation so Rika can't side with Satoko as a whole. Satoko studying in the dorm at night is so scary. What the heck, is that a joke for a trap? That is to bleed, will Rika hate Satoko? So, Rika chose to protect Satoko and lied about the chandelier pot trap. However, the girl with brown hair, told the truth. So it is prison as punishment? Is there no counseling room at the academy? Satoko mistakenly concluded that Rika didn't actually tell the incident, but Rika's friend gave the truth. Even though Satoko was free, darkness still covered her. Satoko regretted his decision to take the St Lucia entrance exam. Was it during Satoko's monologue, did the desire for Loop to return to the past peak and did Satoko succeed in restarting the world? Mion sent a letter and Mion wanted the whole club to come together. Mion, Rena, and Keiichi are in same university. I was a little surprised when the car flew, I thought the car was going to fall into a cliff, lol. Rena is so cute and Mion too s sexy. This card game is hard to understand. It was a card game with the penalty of cosplay, idk of this called cosplay but idfc. I hope with this game Satoko's mentality will recover but yeah, swimsuit more the best than nekomimi. Is that Satoko and Rika's house? Hold on sec, did Rena and Keichi are hhhmm...  What? Where's the onigarinoryuou? And also what the heck is that Hanyuu Milf ver? Give me ED Visual ... And hey wtf, really??? Satoko entered the world of pieces? someone please answer... What horn is that? I got the answer earlier but I forgot, can someone please answer who is that milf Hanyuu? Most likely Oyashiro-sama. |

| I survived 20 episodes of this trash |
| Who are those degens voting this masterpiece down to a mere 7, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh |
| Holy shit was that Featherine at the end?! Didn't expect Umineko to get involved at all!! xD I've been getting much more interested in Gou ever since the two latest arcs and this episode proved it. I knew Ryushiki07 wouldn't disappoint! |

| All this reminds me of those stupid American movies where some new girl(protagonist) comes to school and pretty much destroys the snobbish girl's life, steals her boy friend, house, friends and job just by existing and the snobbish girl is made to be the bad guy for merely being angry at all that. They arent the bad guys(girls) but the audience is against them. This is what you all are doing to Rika. No matter how snobbish she became, if at all, Satoko's bullshit are her own fault and way worse than what Rika is doing. |

| Poor Satoko. And grown up Hanyuu? B-but... I'd thought she disappeared. EDIT: Ok, people said is some "Featherine" from Umineko. I never watched Umineko, so... sorry for I didn't notice that |

I never watched Umineko, so... sorry for I didn't notice that The Hanyuu who faded out was just a fragment of Hanyuu. We haven't really seen the real Hanyuu in Gou outside of a quick flashback. But Fragment Hanyuu mentioned the real one didn't want her meeting Rika, which explains that. Either way, effectively this character probably will be basically treated as a changed Hanyuu/Oyashiro-sama here anyway. She already had some connections to Hanyuu in Umineko and one of them had even been teased in Gou before this episode (the damage on Hanyuu's horn was shinning during the last appearance of fragment Hanyuu, with a shot even just focusing on it. In Umineko, it's said Featherine used to have a different appearance and personality while her horn-like "memory device" was damaged, with the Umineko manga adaptations outright showing her as Hanyuu in flashbacks). Then she pops up here wearing a Miku outfit like Hanyuu rather than the outfit she wears in Umineko. |
| I don't like the fact that Rika's suffering could be partly because of a misunderstanding too. Satoko doesn't know it was not Rika who ratted her out to the teacher about the prank that went wrong. Anyway this series at least somewhat makes sense now that we got enough background context. I am not all familiar with Umineko but it seems this new godlike character is a very big thing apparently. |

| Okay, it's finally here! Milf Rika-chama? How very interesting... Prison in the school though, what the heck? And for more than one entire day? How useless is the child agency in the world, lol? We already got the image from past events but this took it a little too far, I reckon. Anyways, Satoko wanting to redo from Hinamizawa and actually coming to that temple as well. Rika-chama, the jokes on you really. It was really tough to see what transpired this episode, I was a little more understanding to her but I don't seem to have much empathy anymore. |

ToshiroIto said: Feel free to dislike the show, but just stop complaining about all the people who do like it. Kinda hurts that they seemingly Killed off Hanyuu and invalidated her backstory completely. she is probably the most interesting character from Higurashi. She's a bit like Kinzo. Different people saw her from different perspectives. Welp. |
| i watched umineko anime and i am almost in the end of the manga and couldn't make a connection to the higurashi about featherine and someone point me if the connections is in the games or any champter of the manga or if is in the novel? |

| Shiki is the best anime and unique with his style design, you can't change my mind from it |
| Wait, Featherine IN Higurashi?! O.O Now this is awesome. Looking forward for any links to Umineko now! Also, Keiichi got Yamchad by Rena:  |
