Sry dude, WTF?!?!?!?!?!?!
I mean, the animation in Suzumiya Haruhi rocks. The quality is superb. Higurashi is a nice series and all, nice plot, but the animation sucks.
;>.>
lol im not saying it's bad
i didn't mean that at all
i was just saying that i'm sure there is better, even if suzumiya haruhi does have awesome animation :P

This sounds like something gamers like to argue about (good graphics vs not so good graphics. To give a simple example: Newer Final Fantasy vs older Final Fantasy.). I mean, yea the animation was pretty bad in Higurashi no Naku Koru ni, but it's about the story, not the animation that we should be conserned about... well, until you get to the gruesome parts; then they should try to be a bit more realistic :twisted:

And has anyone heard of that Higurashi PS2 game? I really want it, but I seriously doubt it will hit American stores, let alone Canadian T.T

PS: Suzumiya Haruhi is awsome! (Though I do like Higurashi better).

Geneon to Release When They Cry - Higurashi
Geneon Entertainment will release When They Cry - Higurashi on June 5; there will be a regular edition and a limited edition with box release. The 26-episode series was originally known as Higurashi no Naku Koro ni when it was released in Japan, however the creators have always referred to it as "When they Cry" in English. Higurashi no Naku Koro ni 2 is set to be released in Japan this April.
Geneon Acquires When They Cry (Higurashi no Naku Koroni)
Mar 6 2007
GENEON ENTERTAINMENT ACQUIRES ANIME MYSTERY THRILLER SERIES “WHEN THEY CRY (HIGURASHI NO NAKU KORONI)”

LONG BEACH, Calif. - Geneon Entertainment (USA) Inc. announced today the acquisition of the television anime series, “When They Cry (Higurashi no naku koroni).” Based on the popular visual novel series created for PC and video game consoles, “Higurashi no naku koroni” was made into a 26-episode anime series which first aired April 2006 in Japan. Reminiscent to the likes of Director David Lynch's “Twin Peaks” and “Blue Velvet,” with psychological shades of Director Satoshi Kon's “Paranoia Agent” mixed in, this rivetingly suspenseful and disturbingly bizarre series is animated by Studio DEEN (Fate/stay night, Read or Die, Fruits Basket) and scripted by Rika Nakase (Bleach) and Toshimfumi Kawase (director of Tenjho Tenge).

Synopsis:
It's tough being the new guy in town, having just moved into the small rural village of Hinamizawa, but when Keiichi joins an after-school club and befriends four cute girls, life doesn't seem too bad. That is, until he learns about demonic cults and a failed dam construction project, plus the grisly murders and disappearances that have occurred every year after the town festival. As shocking past events are unveiled through different viewpoints, Keiichi learns that things and even people aren't what they appear to be. How many of his club “friends” are involved and what are their plans for him?!

The first volume of “When They Cry (Higurashi no naku koroni)” is scheduled for a domestic DVD release on June 05, 2007. With the English language version to be handled by audio post production studio Bang Zoom! Entertainment, volume 1 will contain five complete episodes (125 minutes) and will be available in two formats: DVD and also a DVD in a slipcase collectors box, with room for the remaining five volumes.

R u shur? I've heard rumors about July, but no official announcement...
EDIT: Nvm, I just saw the announcement. xD

The anime will be 24 episodes long and'll contain three, yes three (Unlike last season's six arcs) arcs:
Minagoroshi-hen
Matsuribayashi-hen
Yakusamashi-hen

The two last answer arcs from the original game (no Matsuri arcs) and an anime-exclusive arc.
... So 8 episodes per arc? That's PERFECT, the first season felt really rushed with only 4 or less episodes for each arc. D:
