alwaysbored said: Yeah, maybe the "Shrine God" is manipulating them?When Rena's and Mio's eyes change they become somewhat possessed . o_O |
| Yeah, I'm guessing too that the girls are possessed or otherwise controlled somehow. Their eyes change, and when they have their normal eyes they seem so much different and friendly. I'm hoping Keiichi would just ask about the needle, that might reveal that they don't remember putting the needle there or something like that and they would find out that it's not the girls who are doing this but someone controlling them. I feel bad that Keiichi is blaming the girls for this when it to me seems that they just want to be his friends. I might be wrong, of course, but the possession theory seems to be probably correct. Also, to me the previous episode was more creepy than this, the part where Rena and Keiichi talk about them having secrets and stuff, especially when she shouts "That's a lie!". This episode was just continuation to the behaviour that began in the last episode, I'm getting used to it already, in the last episode it was still a new thing. The part where Mion shows her eye and says she does not want Keiichi skipping school the next day still creeped me out, I admit. |
| i love this anime. And its best watched at night. which is why i only watch it at night time. Awesome! Oh and wear headphones. It really intensifies it. |
     |
| Jesus Christ this is turning out to be much more than I'd expected. There were moments that really gave me the shivers, which considering the art style of the anime and the way it started is a tremendous accomplishment. Can't help but wonder just how sick it's about to get in the later episodes, considering it's already this intense at 3/26. |
 |
| AHH its so creepy!!! poor dude is gonna "Transfer" DX oh no he took that girls bat!!! that sucks!!! and wow the needle!!! owy that must have hurt!!! i would be so freaked by then i would probably cry then go out and kill them or something haha im glad hes taking action though. . . |
 |
| Holy snap.... This is probably the first anime that has induced fear into my heart. I guess this is to say: be nice to the little girls.. or else.. YOU GONNA BE ****ED UP. lol I really like it. can't wait for the next episodes. I'm also watching this at night around midnight...ugh lol. |
| This anime is getting to a point where i hope it doesnt get repetative and the keichi kid is a dumbass |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| OMG!!! This is so scary. If i was Keiichi id run far far far away |
| I'm loving the suspense in this. The needle in the ohagi totally freaked me out ;o |
 |
| I loved the whole scene when Rena was comparing Keiichi to Satoshi on the way home. 'And then?' 'And then he...transferred.'

Why would he even eat that stuff? I would be suspicious, and think that they poisoned it. ^ THIS. |

| Hooray! This ep just hit the doom apex! QUITE bloodcurdling. Cat eyes FTW!!! This ep makes all the other horror anime soil themselves. |
| Oooh, cliffhanger. Nice :-D My god, that needle...how was he not even slightly suspicious of a 'gift' from his psychotic neighbours that he already thinks are after him???!!! Never did find out what that alphabet was for...oh well :-/ Have to wait till tomorrow for next ep...taking it one day at a time XD |
| "Ah yes, the demon drink...'Nature's Alzheimer's' they call it" |
| Whoa. |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
| They look lke manpulated when their eyes turn to cat's-like.. or maybe that could be the way of showing they're talking evil.. I like creepy lolis xP |
| God, I'm going to die of a heart attack. 23 episodes to go... I bet if Near and his guys are going to read the Death Note, they will find an entry "animehobbit - tries to watch higurashi no naku koro ni at night" ukonkivi said: That's exactly what she came for, I'm pretty sure now. ;)"she's here to get you". when i put this anime into my list just now i noticed it is flagged "comedy"... there seems to be someone with a very dark sense of humour around. did rena write that or is the comedic part still coming up?? |
| Why do I get the feeling I'm gonna regret starting this anime? |
| Damn, the needle, that was messed up. I can't believe this episode actually got me all uneasy lol must keep watching. |
| Ok so I just finished the 3rd episode and this anime is really starting to get on my nerves. Just the fact that the psycho killers are these tiny little girls is ridiculous. I mean why is this damn Keiichi so scared of them you could take them out with one punch. I hate how the little girls talk like they are so tough you know like talking all slow and everything. What's with there eyes changing when they act all crazy and everything, like is that supposed to emphasize how friggen psycho they are? It's so stupid though mainly because it's just a bunch of little girls who you could easily put a stomp down on. And yea I know it's only an anime so anything is possible but it just gets on my nerves... sorry I'm done now. |

| how... scary |
| that needle. /shakes head. and what was up with the ABCDE letters? |
 |
| The closing door scene was great. |
| My heart was beating so fast. DON'T OPEN THE FLIPPIN' DOOR! PLEASE KEIICHI! D: |
| Well I got legit scared from this, especially since I'm alone at my house and it's midnight. Ahah. |
| Let me guess : It's like they have double personality ? I love this kind of horror . |
 |
| He's about to die of fear..I guess there's a demon or something in the girls and controlling them at will..We could know that from the fast changing mood..And why is he acting like Saturo..And this is the first Anime in which I feel heart pounding fear there..And could that needle contain some kind of poison?? Now the great question is who rang the door |
-------Only God will judge me -------- iSignature |
| Getting interesting. I hope Keiichi uses that baseball bat on whomever rang the bell |
 |
| Oh my gosh. It makes me not want to be around any of them. I don't know who to trust anymore. They scare me. If that was me, I would have killed them all to save myself. I don't care what negative impact it'll have on me. I just don't want to see them anymore. |
| The change in the eyes and personality of the girls is really creepy. O_O |

| That scared the shit outta me and I am alone in my house. |
 |
| gaaa.. what a mind fucked!! maybe the reason why Keichii killed Rena and Mion at the first episode is because he's getting scared about everything.. Scared of disappearing. Scared because of those 2 girls. He looks scary now with his bat. and there's so many guesses.. what if that old police man is the real killer and he's just toying Keichii? |
| I´m actually enjoying this, big time. But I don´t know if the girls turn yandere all of the sudden, or if Keichi is losing his mind. That needle scene as well, priceless. I´m thinking Keichi is actually going mad and the girls are just sweet cute school gals. |
 |
| Don't get me wrong, I am enjoying the SHIT out of this anime, but honestly if this was happening to me, I would have been gone, left town, like last episode would have left. I would have acquired money somehow, and would have been gone. Fucking out of town, possibly out of the country. But the main character is just like," well......time to go to school I guess". No! Fuck that! Time to call the FBI and get a new identity.......who the fuck would go to school at that point? |
 |
| The woman who was with Tomitake when he died was Takano. Apparently, all the girls are connected to the crimes, especially Rena. And they're all trying to kill him. So far, they used a needle, and then a van. So Keiichi is walking the same path Satoshi walked. With that awesome bat. Those eyes and personality switch are really scary... I shouldn't really watch this during the night... But I will press on! |
I’m always searching for something, for someone. This feeling has possessed me I think, from that day… That day when the stars came falling. |
Blackdragonwar said: I have already seen the whole series, but I can't remember why Mion was acting as fucked up as Rena. SPOILER QUESTION ... Please put it under spoiler =) |
| This entire town is messed up, not just Rena and Mion! And I have the feeling that Rika the cute and little one is the craziest of them all. Talk about paranoia lol. It's always the quiet ones man!!! |
| So close to shitting my pants now. Maybe another episode will do it... |
 |
| Okay what is wrong with this stupid cop? He scares this kid to death, pretty much tells him that his friends are involved with these murders, then when the kid tells him something is happening to him, the cop offers him nothing and doesn't help him back. Put the kid in protective custody or something, or better yet don't use a kid to do your investigation, put yourself on the line. |
