That's the thing, he probably while planning Gou/Sotsu thought the anime audience would have been happy just watching their characters going crazy (again) and the plot would be in the background and taking few episodes just to give some kind of message to the show. But it's clear in the end that people really weren't happy with their favorite characters becoming killers, and not only the throw away L5 victims, they couldn't sympathize with Satoko's plan or how her conflict was resolved, so I guess he now hesitates in pulling something like that with the club members again, being unsure what it'd take to convince the audience to go along with it.

I think he still easily can get away with just introducing a new cast around the club members', and then making these ones potential culprits and mastermind. That story structure should work without backlash. It's essentially what he did with Reiwa, but it was overstuff with characters due to the 2nd gen gimmick. Things really would have worked better if it had been a smaller timeskip, still starring the club from the beginning.

This part itself doesn't line up with early in the story where they talk like Keitaro was a stranger and getting closer to him would be useful due to his father's position. Not even ONCE they reference that Keiichi already works closely with Polaris and even talks with the Holy Mother.

I think R07 just threw in the new virus because he wanted an excuse for the crimes after the Gou/Sotsu backlash, and didn't think about how weird the situation was with its distribution/infection rules.

I do agree that the final arc was changed though, but I think it was more to make the old club more active and important thus Keiichi suddenly being involved with Polaris all along.

To be fair it could be possible that the kids have no idea of what's going on with the adults or that the holy mother is working with Keiichi.

Still this entire final arc has been a complete and utter disappointment I really hope whatever Ryukishi makes next for Higurashi just flops hard after this shit and his shitty gacha dies too

Execution certainly was the problem, but I think it's "execution" on the level that the entire story would have to be heavily changed to work. All Hinamizawa Syndromes cases in the original series said a lot about the characters and eventually led to development. That's completely missing from Gou/Sotsu; Either they're repeat or just shocking events with no real meaning for the person going crazy. The focus on someone who could be likeable was all on Satoko, but there I think his wish to make this a perfect ending combined with still wanting to give a message about not having everything, combined with clearly wanting this to be a Bern/Lambda origin even if he doesn't openly admit it, resulted in something that ends up making no sense thematically if you think about anything besides the St.Lucia conflict. Like how Satoko killing people made a final world even better for her (nice Teppei, Satoshi recovering, club seemingly not leaving Hinamizawa for now aside from Rika). Or how R07's attempt to justify her lack of guilty at end (the previous worlds are like illusions) are plainly her villain motivations in the first place, which is completely fucked up. You end up a story supposedly about growing up with a character who thinks consequence are for losers, not for her.

>>48339148
>Execution certainly was the problem, but I think it's "execution" on the level that the entire story would have to be heavily changed to work.
I'm really tired of the constant arguments about how only the actual execution was bad, but the ideas themselves could have worked with enough effort. While that's not exactly the case in your case, you do realize that you're not actually saying anything with this, because the ideas themselves could theoretically always work, because it will always ultimately depend on their execution. Even the most noble idea can be twisted to commit utter atrocities and vice versa. So is there even such a thing as a creatively bad idea for you? An idea that's not worthy of seeing ink on paper or developing alongside others? Because if not, you are proving that the entire discussion on this topic is pointless. But at the same time, if you have to change something heavily to make it work, you get into a situation where you have to change the essence of the underlying ideas, which rather proves that the original ideas were wrong and incompatible together.

>>48340831
Well, Gou/Sotsu still attempted to have a message, and give some analysis of Satoko/Rika and the passage of time, just mishandled most of that.

An actual really bad concept would be if they hadn't even bothered with that and just stuck to "rewatch slightly modified tragedies because Higurashi fans love their favorite characters killing each other" which WAS part of Gou/Sotsu's concept too and R07 even showed surprise people were bothered by those parts rather than enjoying their favorite characters "letting all out" and going on killing sprees. Now this part is something bad on a conceptual level.

I'm trying to find the original PC release of Higurashi with Eng translation. I used to have it on an old PC but the ones in the OP link and on nyaa are mangagamer or 07th mod versions with new sprites.

Meguri is guilty of the same things though, most of it still wastes your time with pointless H-173 arcs. And Satoko's motivation is somehow worse and more inconsistent than Gou, she claims she wants to revive the good old times but somehow develops a murder fetish out of nowhere (and no, getting bad luck with your loops is not a good justification). The worst part is that she was already looping back to the past before she went crazy since she only had to kill herself, so her torturing her friends is completely pointless to boot and only happens because Satoko tells Eua that it'd be fun to do so as a sadistic challenge.

>>48353155
I don't even know why she killed Rika here, she seemed to be having a good time. It's like she enjoys killing more than spending time with her friends.

>>48353155
Isn't that the same as Gou though? It's the same nonsense motivation. Satoko is a lost cause either way. I guess they could've expanded on the weird bipolar thing to try and save her too but Meguri at least salvages every other club member.

>>48352692
Kokoroiyashi was always meant to be an alternate continuity. R07's write up at the end is about the world going in multiple different fragments after Matsuribayashi, mentioning Saikoroshi and Kokoroiyashi as two possibilities.

>>48353372
No, in Gou she specifically wants to mindbreak Rika so that she'll be easily gaslit into thinking that she and Satoko should stay in Hinamizawa forever. In Meguri, Satoko only wants to revive the Watanagashi festival with her friends (except the times when she doesn't and kills Rika early for some reason). Don't get me wrong, both are dumb, but one's hell of a lot more contradictory and inconsistent.

Well, they took until the final arc to explain it well but they did it. Her idea is that their bonds and friendship only flourished to a deep level due to the tragedy loops, which is why they break apart when the loops are done. So, she'd stay forever in the past causing tragedies so they continue together in all worlds. Meguri also explains why she's making the others go crazy and sin too, rather than just killing Rika herself, since she believes all of them being sinners and licking each other's wounds is part of their bonds.

Really, it actually justifies sticking to 83 than Gou ever did. Gou/Sotsu Satoko's plan would work much better if she caused St.Lucia tragedies. After all, Hinamizawa tragedies made Rika want to leave Hinamizawa even when she learned the cause came from the outside world. So, St.Lucia tragedies would sour Rika on St.Lucia even if she learned Satoko was behind them. In Gou/Sotsu, there was no reason at all to force Rika back to Hinamizawa specifically aside from setting up Satoko's own defeat.

Are there really people STILL trying to say Meguri was good?

Yeah, I like it. The only weak part to me are the Akashi arcs (even then they had some stuff I enjoyed like Rika trying to solve things with Tomitake, Satoko killing Takano and Shion/Mion bonding).

You actually have a dramatic final battle with personal stakes (unlike the joke that was matsuribayashi's final battle), the previous arcs do pay into the conclusion rather than being all throw away slaughterhouses and the ending acknowledges the heaviness of it all, unlike Sotsu and now Reiwa that leave Rika broken but try to play this off as happy.

That never made sense either though. Satoko barely even knows what's happening in the tragedies at times like in Wataakashi, and then the loops end and she moves onto the next one with nothing special happening. There was no unique bonding with Satoko in these heartless loops that only happen due to a plot convenient medicine instead of the characters developing HS on their own. That just sounds like an extremely forced explanation, and sure as hell doesn't justify or even explain Satoko's gleeful sadism.

>>48353600

It's not really dramatic when it's extremely predictable and you could tell from the get go that Satoko would lose to the power of friendship.

>In Gou/Sotsu, there was no reason at all to force Rika back to Hinamizawa specifically aside from setting up Satoko's own defeat.
Huh? Satoko forced Rika back to Hinamizawa because being with her back at home is how she lived the happiest time of her life and thinks leaving for St Lucia would ruin her. She's being selfish and possessive of her friend, her source of happiness.

>That never made sense either though. Satoko barely even knows what's happening in the tragedies at times like in Wataakashi
Well, in Meguri during Oniakashi and Wataakashi Satoko was kind of messing up and making mistakes, didn't have solidified methods yet. Her actual method is only solidified by Tatariakashi, which shows her step by step making the curse rumors and such to drive the infected person in the direction she wants to keep things in order, setting the model she followed in the later loops. Although it's true by this point they're all just quick montages so there's no real character moments, you just need to go by her words in the final arc.

The one addition that I find dumb in hindsight was was the mass infection that ended up having no plot relevancy and only showed up again in one part of the quick montage though. Tomato -really- just wanted to draw the visuals of the climax of Mei's first arc once even without the story to sustain it.

In Gou/Sotsu, she's forcing her there to break her mind though, not to have fun and leave peacefully. At least not for now, the idea is that eventually she'd break Rika's will and then she'd stay and they'd have their fun normal life in Hinamizawa.

But it's counterintuitive because forcing Rika to stay in Hinamizawa is explicitly why she wants to leave according to Sotsu. Yeah, at one point she almost "gave up", but I don't see how Satoko translated that into "she'll love her life there!". Causing tragedies in St.Lucia so Rika disliked that place would achieve Satoko's goals much more efficiently. Even if her identity were discovered like Takano's was nothing would change. Rika still would associate St.Lucia with tragedies and want to avoid it.

>>48353784
>you just need to go by her words in the final arc.
I just can't buy that explanation when none of the actual loops have a hint of it at all. That's why I call it forced, it's almost insulting.

She had mentioned early on too that the tragedies were a necessary element for their bright days in Hinamizawa, the reader just doesn't get a full explanation until the Satoko/Rika confrontation.

Well, and I guess there's the brief Shion/Satoko confrontation? But, if the lack of explicit bonding scenes over the new tragedies bother you that much, then, yeah, there really isn't much in the story.

>>48353816
She was breaking her mind with the artificial tragedies with H173. Forcing her back to Hinamizawa is Satoko's final goal, she did so by making her think that the was cursed and that the sheer desire in her mind of wanting to leave the village despite being the shrine maiden was causing the tragedies. It's when Satoko was ripping Rika's guts out remember? Rika even agrees with this afterwards and falls for the gaslighting in the scene where she talks with her taller (but similarly flat) self. Then when Rika follows through, no tragedy happens and the festival goes off without a hitch, proving that theory right. Thing is, Rika wasn't as mindbroken as Satoko thought she was, so she started getting suspicious and asking questions.

>>48353879
>She had mentioned early on too that the tragedies were a necessary element for their bright days in Hinamizawa
Which we know for a fact was false, we can clearly see her genuinely enjoying herself with her friends prior to tragedies happening. She already had the perfect 1983 forever and could just kill herself to go back to it, but then she proposed the whole Rika murder challenge to Eua to make things less boring, and we're supposed to accept this blatantly false explanation at the end for it? Nah. I think this is just Tomato changing his mind about the story halfway through adapting Gou, which lead to a nonsensical mess where the final answer doesn't match the setup.

That's what I'm saying. I'm just pointing out the plan was senseless from the start. "Giving up" doesn't somehow translate into "loving her life". Forcing her to stay because of a curse or whatever wouldn't solve the cause that made her want to leave in the first place, and you'd just get a depressed Rika eventually (which clearly wasn't Satoko's goal otherwise she could just cause an outbreak with a random person in the later years and then Irie wouldn't allow Rika to leave Hinamizawa).

Her actual goal should have been causing St.Lucia tragedies, since Takano showed so well how that works, to the point that even the culprit's identity being revealed (and the culprit being an outsider group unrelated to Hinamizawa) didn't make Rika's trauma be redirected to Tokyo or something.

Satoko causes St.Lucia tragedies for a while and then Rika wouldn't even think about going back there even if she learned Satoko was behind them.

>Which we know for a fact was false, we can clearly see her genuinely enjoying herself with her friends prior to tragedies happening.
She attributes the bonds of those friendships to the numerous loops and their tragedies though. We know this is true up to a point too (like Shion bonding with Satoko, and there's always the sense Keiichi has been with them together longer than one month), it's just a fucked up moral reprehensible action and reading of the series, which is why she has to be stopped.

It's also why Sotsu's ending bothers me so much, since she's just gifted by her crimes without any insight into it all (nice Teppei, Satoshi's recovery, club still in Hinamizawa by the time Rika is leaving to high school rather than leaving to high school one by one) or acknowledgement of the weight of those things.

Also, I guess you can accuse Tomato of making up this plot midway during the Gou serialization, but even during early Meguri Satoko mentions the tragedies are necessary, we just don't get an elaboration until the confrontation with Rika. So, this was definitely not just thrown in for the ending.

>>48354010
But the reason Rika wanted to leave Hinamizawa was because it was a source of tragedies. She changes her mind when she's gaslit into thinking that tragedies would stop if she simply didn't want to leave, which was proven right, and she was shown to be happy about it. There's no signs that Rika would be displeased by staying in Hinamizawa after that in the anime, so Satoko thought she had won.

>Satoko causes St.Lucia tragedies for a while and then Rika wouldn't even think about going back there even if she learned Satoko was behind them.
That's more of a "why didn't the character do this instead" which we can apply to every story ever, but the point here is that Satoko's plan worked for a while, Rika was happy, and the reason it fell apart was because Satoko didn't mindbreak her enough to prevent her from getting suspicious.

>>48354048
>She attributes the bonds of those friendships to the numerous loops and their tragedies though
But that had already happened in the original VN and transformed her friends into their final forms that would never develop HS naturally, hence why I said that she already had the perfect 1983 forever (Teppei got memory leak'd on his own so he would have turned good after enough loops, which he did). There's no reason to keep the tragedies going at that point, don't change what isn't broken.

The anime itself shows her angsty shortly afterwards though (and if it didn't it would have been just bad writing). My point is more that Satoko's plan was self-defeating and senseless the only reason it exists is to reuse old arcs and make her lose, not because it makes sense as a motivation in-universe. There's no logical line from "she almost gave up" to "she'd be happy if she gave up".

>>48354151
The issue is that she sees their bonds breaking without the tragedies/loops in the post-83 years, thus everyone distancing themselves in the later years. Which is why she feels she has to continue causing them so their bonds persist in future loops. Yeah, obviously she was wrong and just fearing change and the future. Even if they were away they were still friends, the club reunion.

But that's exactly the main conflict with Meguri Satoko, it's really just her fearing the future (a characteristic that was highlighted even before Eua broke her, although obviously it only become homicidal due to Eua's interference). In the end, she is still uncertain about how the future will turn out, but decides to face it day by day rather than running away.

Because she was getting suspicious. By "displeased" I was talking more in regards to you claiming that she'd have gotten depressed over time because she didn't like Hinamizawa, when the whole reason she dislikes it is because of the tragedies, and this gaslighting convinced her that the tragedies would stop, hence why she was happy at first. She almost gave up because she had zero idea why bad things kept happening, so she was very relieved when she found out the "truth" and the tragedies stopped, until she started getting suspicious of course.

>until she started getting suspicious of course.
She started getting angsty exactly because no tragedies weren't happening in spite of her doing nothing though. It wasn't about suspecting Satoko or anything. It was always going to happen as a consequence of Satoko's plan as it was once the "peace" came.

>>48354159
>>48354151
>The issue is that she sees their bonds breaking without the tragedies/loops in the post-83 years
But she said she just wanted to relieve 1983 since she was convinced that "fate" had cursed the following years to have tragedies no matter what. There was no indication that she wanted to end it at some point back then or that there was some kind of objective to reach, she flat out said she "needed a tragedy to relive those fulfilling days", which we know was a lie. 1983 will always be fulfilling no matter what at that point.

Also when I meant "halfway through Meguri" I actually meant halfway through the whole manga since I just assumed that's how we refer to it rather than "the manga adaptation of Higurashi Gou, whose latter half is referred to as Higurashi Meguri", that's why I said that Tomato had a change of heart by then.

>>48354219
>She started getting angsty exactly because no tragedies weren't happening in spite of her doing nothing though.
Yeah? I didn't say otherwise. But we know as per the scene with her clone that she was happy at first. Like I said, the reason the plan fell apart was because Satoko didn't mindbreak her enough so as to prevent her from getting suspicious. Satoko just had a lapse in judgment and thought Rika was sufficiently broken by then, not to mention she was really giddy about finally winning. Shouldn't have hurried things and set the stage to make things less suspicious, then she might've won for good.

>1983 will always be fulfilling no matter what at that point.
The point is that from her point of view their bonds were undone post-83 because they weren't in that tragedy loop anymore. So, going back to 83, to keep it as she wanted, it had to be a tragedy loop too to keep their bonds together there in the future loops.

All the time she talks about causing tragedies to keep them united, she's shown talking about 83, not keeping them together in the future. She clearly talks like they're only united right now in 83 due to the continuous tragedies.

>>48354318
Rika is shown giving up though, which is what Satoko thought she needed for her counterintuitive plan to work. There's no breaking her more than that if she wants a living functional Rika.

It just would never solve the core of the issue. Rika knows Hinamizawa had nothing to do with the tragedies and it was Tokyo and Takano. It's really more about feelings. So, making up some story about a curse won't suddenly resolve things even if Rika rationally realizes Hinamizawa isn't at fault, she still will be uncomfortable in that situation. Like shown in the anime itself.

But again, we know that's not true since she had just finished looped a trillion times and the Final Destination-tier events only happened in the years after 1983. So where's the logic in messing with 1983 if it was always perfect no matter what?

That might have just hurried up Satoko's actions though with the gut spilling scene though, so maybe she just didn't get enough mindbreaking because she literally had no more time.

But we know Rika was happy at first, those feelings had clearly been dispelled since they were due to uncertainty, and this gaslighting fixed that.

Satoko should have worked on making things less suspicious, but she was too excited about winning. She's also not exactly the smartest, high school dropout and all that.

can someone leak long28's fanbox thanks

>>48354475
Pretty sure these are cases of Satoko messing with things herself to change the future, similar to the anime, rather than tragedies. But either way, mangatoko clearly only gives a shit about June 1983 Watanagashi festival (even though she sometimes kills Rika earlier than that for some reason, or sometimes in the middle of a happy moment, so she's very inconsistent).

>>48354476
>That might have just hurried up Satoko's actions though with the gut spilling scene though, so maybe she just didn't get enough mindbreaking because she literally had no more time.
From the start she talks about bringing Rika to the point of giving up like she almost gave up in the previous loops. That wasn't Satoko rushing to her goal, it was her goal all along. The point where Rika gives up.

But it obviously doesn't work because the whole plan just exists to fail so they can still have their ending where Rika leaves. Even though Satoko herself mentions being inspired by the previous loops and should know how to manipulate Rika's feelings even if her identity was revealed, like with Takano's example.

>But we know Rika was happy at first, those feelings had clearly been dispelled since they were due to uncertainty, and this gaslighting fixed that.

It's the other way around though. She rationalized that she was happy due to Satoko's gaslighting, but it was all surface level which is why when Rika realized she really wasn't dying in Hinamizawa this time she started getting angsty about it even though there was no rational reason to be unhappy about that.

>>48354502

Also, when she does learn Satoko was behind it all, she promptly leaves. Exactly because she was just rationalizing things, it weren't true feelings, unlike the trauma Takano left on her.

>>48354502
>>48354514
Yes, but Rika giving up out of sheer rationality is different from her being mindbroken enough to fall for Satoko's utopic scenario forever, the latter of which is what Satoko wanted. The sheer fact that she wanted to destroy her mind shows that she was thinking selfishly and conveniently from the get go rather than caring about Rika's mental condition for the future, her plan was childish and idealistic but that's kind of the point for her motivation: the unrealistic desires to live in your happy past for all time. And of course Rika leaves once she learns she was being gaslit, you generally revert to pre-gaslight mentality when that happens you know. Even in Matsuribayashi's epilogue, Rika was already talking about wanting to do things she'd never done before.
>Even though Satoko herself mentions being inspired by the previous loops and should know how to manipulate Rika's feelings
That's just referring to tricking Rika that a loop is just a repeat of one from the VNs, then pulling the rug under her to make her lose, is it not?

> she started getting angsty
Cause she thought she was being manipulated and wanted to sniff out the truth, rather than anything else.

I'm talking about her speech about how one time Rika was about to give up and she wanted to bring her to that state again, but make her give up for real.

>The sheer fact that she wanted to destroy her mind shows that she was thinking selfishly and conveniently from the get go rather than caring about Rika's mental condition for the future

Like I said, she compares how Rika was meant to feel from her plan with how she felt near the end of the original loops. She doesn't want a brain dead Rika.

And, yet, in spite of seeing how Takano's loops worked, she chooses to do a insane work around, hoping empty lies could just erase Rika's original trauma and new traumas she was about to add on top, rather than just using the same logic to make Rika hate the place where she didn't want to go.

>Cause she thought she was being manipulated and wanted to sniff out the truth, rather than anything else.

Because she couldn't just accept no tragedies happening in Hinamizawa for no reason. Which would always happen at the end of Satoko's plan. There's even that conversation on the cliff where Satoko says Rika should just take happiness as given rather than questioning things.

Note Rika wasn't specifically suspecting Satoko at all. The box trap turns out to be a complete coincidence. She just couldn't take that scenario as it was.

Bernkastel jogging while wearing a sports bra and yoga pants.
Bernkastel completely winded after about 50 meters because of her fat tits and unkempt body.

Bern has no cat ears, meaning her tail is a buttplug.

It's amazing how so many problems in GouSotsu cease to be when you flip their roles and have Satoko be the one who wants to succeed where Shion failed and LARP as a full ojou in St. Lucia while Rika seethes and keeps rerolling for another miracle where she can make Satoko give up, even if that means turning into an abusive monster forcing her to relieve the nightmare of 1983 until she gives up and becomes a witch.

I preferred the alchemist sprites for Umineko but for some reason in Higurashi they don't feel as polished

>>48360678
Higurashi's everything is inferior when compared to Umineko!

>>48360702
Obvious bait is obvious

>>48360678
Different artists, after all. Rato did the Higurashi console sprites, while Umineko had 2 different artists (Question arcs, Takahito Ekusa (portrait artists in the OG VN), for female characters and FFC for males (although there were a few exceptions in both sides, FFC also did the sprites for Zepar, Furfur, Ikuko, Cornelia, and Gertrude).

Stinktokofag is always desperate to kill his thread around the same time.

>>48353607
This is a well known and most consequential rule of the WTC universe: Umineko ruins everything.

Kill their thread? What the fuck are you schizos on about now? Is this a discord thread thing?

Higurashi would've been a better story if it really was a time loop and not different fragments

>>48362631
Shit take, you would take out stakes from the story.

>>48362750
How? You can still have it so memory leaks happen only in certain loops and have Rika come back sooner and sooner each time she loops. What exactly would be taken from the story besides making it so characters stay consistent?

>>48354622
>I'm talking about her speech about how one time Rika was about to give up and she wanted to bring her to that state again, but make her give up for real.
Yeah that's what I meant, there's nothing about being able to manipulate her beyond making her give up.

>And, yet, in spite of seeing how Takano's loops worked, she chooses to do a insane work around, hoping empty lies could just erase Rika's original trauma and new traumas she was about to add on top, rather than just using the same logic to make Rika hate the place where she didn't want to go.
>Because she couldn't just accept no tragedies happening in Hinamizawa for no reason. Which would always happen at the end of Satoko's plan. There's even that conversation on the cliff where Satoko says Rika should just take happiness as given rather than questioning things.
See you say the plan is self-defeating but it's not like we had any idea how it was gonna fail exactly. We didn't know how hard Rika was going to be mindbroken so it was unclear if she was going to be sane enough for a comeback or completely and utterly gone. They could have perfectly made Rika fall in line with the gaslighting and instead have, for example, Rika becoming so unrecognizable from the trauma that Satoko herself slowly realizes that her efforts were all for naught because the friend she knew is nothing but a looney bin patient. But either result doesn't change that we know and understand why Satoko's motivation: she wants to stay in Hinamizawa forever and convince Rika to stay because that's the only time in Satoko's life that she experienced happiness, it's pretty simple and straightforward. The flaws in the plan come from her personality and lapses of judgment, not because it doesn't make sense or is vague.

>>48362769
Nothing that happens matters anymore, I have no reason to feel emotionally invested in events that effectively never happened, Rika can just reset everything with a snap of her fingers.
This is the exact same gay reasoning that gave us the master piece of shit that is Gou.
