New kid Keiichi Maebara is settling into his new home of peaceful Hinamizawa village. Making quick friends with the girls from his school, he's arrived in time for the big festival of the year. But something about this isolated town seems "off," and his feelings of dread continue to grow. With a gnawing fear that he's right, what dark secrets could this small community be hiding?

Gou takes what already makes Higurashi a gem, and expands upon it with new new ideas all while retaining the core

Ryukishi fumbled on this sequel. What a disappointment to the franchise.

Gou has some writing pitfalls here and there, but it still is a very enjoyable experience,mostly.
