No Higu Kai this week. *screams*

[Nice Food]

If you are wondering where did the episode preview of Higu Kai this week went to…well..it turned to nice food.

Yes. and I am pissed. *zzz* as if a boat ain’t enuff.

What are her motives ?

[Impressions] - 皆殺し編 - Massacre Chapter

Truly an amazing episode in Higu Kai, the mastermind is revealed in this episode and Satoko’s chapter is over, now we get to the main course of this arc - the master plan of the Yamainu and what are the intentions of doing so. This whole collaboration between Yamainu’s men, Tomitake, Irie and Takano remains unknown yet and will most prolly be revealed in the next episode. There is no doubt that this arc will end in another tragic way but I hope Rika wont bow down yet, the pieces of the puzzle will now be pretty in place in the upcoming episodes and it is up to her to piece them up and obtain the miracle to break free of the chains of fate for Hinamizawa 1983.

Evil as it seems, Takano is definitely not an ordinary woman and poor Rika will prolly realize that soon for Takano ordered the men to keep a close watch on Rika.

Rika, giving up hope…

[Impressions] - 皆殺し編 - Massacre Chapter

The 2 episodes in Higurashi Kai indicates a very big change in this arc, hopes were high as Rika is confident that she will overcome the chains of fate and break free of the cursed circle of fate. She even plans something that will might make a difference in the events that is gonna happen in Watanagashi but ep08 shows a complete change in the arc as if the hopes were shattered and dives into an unknown pit of misfortune. Yes, Satoko’s uncle is back and Satoko is living with him. Of course, if you recall from the 1st season, she was mistreated and suffers greatly. Rika tries to deploy the Yamainu (the unknowns) to kill Teppei (Satoko’s uncle) but was unable to as the police are watching him closely. The police suspects him to be involved with that pink haired “bitch” who was cornered by some thugs and of course, killed. It was revealed in this episode too that Rika was working with Irie and Takano for a “research” on Satoko as well.

The others got news as well eventually and each has a different approach towards Satoko’s fate, Shion wanted to kill him. Keiichi decides to approach the Child Care Council and the others agree as well. Each of them has a deja vu feeling that something that happened from the past (due to the parallel worlds) deicdes that a peaceful method is needed rather than unnecessary killing. Luckily for Shion, Keiichi’s interference averted the fate of Teppei’s death.

Ep08’s impressive, not because Rika went “berserk” or because Shion went “mad” but rather how Rika handles the situation from the beginning. From that confident approach to a pretty cornered situation, Rika seems to lose all the options available to her and Hanyuu could only observe. It is like driving a car and making a sharp turn, you wont know what is gonna happen if that brakes fail on you. I am expecting something big in ep09, the kids are gonna fight for Satoko and no way they are giving up but definitely, the mastermind behind this is gonna be revealed. Who will it be ?
