I remember the first time I watched Higurashi: When They Cry. I admit I didn’t know what to expect. And each episode had me in shock as the story began to unfold.
Not sure how I heard of Higurashi, but I’m glad I did as it’s now one of my top Anime shows.
The reason? Not just the great episodes and how it all plays out. No, it’s not just the music either. It’s the quotes!
It’s what made Higurashi slightly more entertaining and enjoyable.
