Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Matsuri

Got another vid for you guys: this is the opening sequence for the PS2 port of Higurashi no Naku Koro ni (ひぐらしのく頃に/"When Cicadas Cry"), which is pretty much the most acclaimed doujin soft product since Tsukihime. The PS2 version, dubbed Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Matsuri (ひぐらしのく頃に祭/"When Cicadas Cry Festival"), contains the first seven chapters of the intense murder mystery (Onikakushi-hen/鬼隠し編/"Demon Hiding Chapter", Watanagashi-hen/綿流し編/"Cotton Drifting Chapter", Tatarigoroshi-hen/祟殺し編/"Curse Slaying Chapter", Himatsubushi-hen/暇潰し編/"Time Wasting Chapter" [nothing says "filler" better than this title], Meakashi-hen/目明し編/"Eye Opening Chapter", Tsumihoroboshi-hen/罪滅し編/"Sin Expiating Chapter", and Minagoroshi-hen/皆殺し編/"Wholesale Killing Chapter"), as well as three new chapters meant to resolve the storyline (Taraimawashi-hen/盥回し篇/"Tub Spinning Chapter", Tsukiotoshi-hen/憑落し篇/"Haunt Dispelling Chapter", and Miotsukushi-hen/澪尽し篇/"Channel Marking Chapter").



The opening theme, Nageki no Mori (
嘆きノ森/"Lamenting Forest"), is performed by Ayane (彩音).
