Yet again, various lines in the visual novel states 'kanon loved her as a sister'. I believe it would be better to leave it to person interpretation.

The fact Shannon commented that 'he just consider me as a older sister' and the explanations behind the servants of the Fukunon House are kinda pointing to the non blood relative status. I don’t think that’s something I’d expect a mundane weapon to do.Can we really extrapole they are siblings?Ĭonsidering their origins as orphans explained in episode 1, it might be a simple 'sibling like' relationship, but absolutely not blood relative wise. I also think it being Miyoko’s bullet which injured Hanyu’s horn is significant. Meanwhile it seems like while Eua/Oyashiro initially empowered Hanyu, Hanyu managed to surpass Eua by injuring her in battle, chipping her horn, just as Hanyu’s horn was chipped prior to her leveling up and managing to repair it. LD is the one who is finally able to challenge Featherine (reduced “Eua” aka True Oyashiro) and seems to be a merger of the witch versions of Miyo and Satoko. >Does it mean they can appear on the other “no naku koro ni” such as uminekoĪlthough she resembles Miyo too so I think there’s some Miyo/Satoko interplay we’ve yet to see in another Higurashi sequel that finally leads to the birth of Lambdadelta The real fans of the franchise deserve that much. It won’t be a masterpiece – none of them are – but I just hope it expands the mythology in a more meaningful way than Sotsu and Gou have. Given how popular the franchise remains to this day I can’t imagine we won’t see yet another incarnation of the anime sometime down the road. I watched a lot of Higurashi during the period when I was transitioning from a casual anime fan to a real fanatic, and those are good memories.

In the end I did enjoy having Higurashi back in the TV landscape for a while. That was unexpected and executed pretty well, actually. As for Sotsu, though, the only remotely notable thing about it – and it was fairly notable, to be fair – was the Teppei redemption thread. Lucia stuff was handled in Gou was kind of interesting. I liked certain elements of Gou a lot, even if the guro stuff soiled the bed pretty badly. Which I’m sure Gou and Sotsu are doing, what with their attached manga spinoffs and VN modules and BD/DVD sales and merchandising. That’s all fine and good I suppose, but it reinforces that nagging question – just what the hell was the point of all this? Along with that a happy ending for pretty much everybody as far as I can tell, even Nii-Nii and Uncle Teppei. Basically this was just Rika and Satoko in an analog cat fight, Hanyuu and Eua in a digital one, and the aforementioned BS reconciliation.

Let’s set aside all that wink-wink stuff teasing the other facets in Ryukishi’s golden goose of a franchise – I don’t have any experience with any of them but Higurashi, I don’t really get the references, and I don’t care. And all of this could have been avoided if they’d just had one honest conversation about it in the first place. She deserved a hell of a lot more than a few punches in the kisser from a little girl, but the most offensive thing about this was that Rika – after all the suffering Satoko put her through over and over – was perfectly willing to declare her love for Satoko and leave it at that. Satoko got off beyond easy, as you knew she would. That is what it is, and anyway I’m still here, so how much of a sucker am I for that? As for the finale it was in the main exactly as it was telegraphed.

This entire show could have been dusted in 3 or 4 episodes with ease, and the fact that it was bloated to 15 is no less than a fraud committed against fans of the franchise.

I’m hard-pressed to think of a series that has less real reason to exist at all – at least in its final form. Where I think Sotsu really stands out, however, is pointlessness. But there have been better anime with worse sequels – Higurashi isn’t something to take all that seriously in the first place, and this definitely hit the “so bad it’s good” note a few times. I’m not going to suggest that Higurashi no Naku Koro ni – SOTSU wasn’t pretty bad.
