The issue wasn't the character designs, it's the writing. The best thing R07 could do is have no meta plot whatsoever. Just show us old timelines we haven't seen before.

Realistically speaking, Rena must have some nasty skin infections and parasites from scaveging in the trash all day, everyday. Her puss puss must be filled with pus too. Maybe her skin worms were real after all.

I don't think anyone has brought this up, but the new show still uses the Higurashi Gou logo, rather than the original's. I guess it's probably just production committee BS though.

Is there an interesting premise of a Higu spinoff that would actually be worth it?
Assuming it's actually written well, what's the best case scenario here?
>>
>>288883897

I think something like those crazy Gou speculations people had would work the best. As in, reality itself is unreliable and the cast would eventually have to break the illusions somehow to stop the tragedy. It'd harken back to the original Hinamizawa Syndrome delusions, but likely tied to some other new plot device.

It'd allow some great horror atmosphere moments too.

>With the main female cast (plus Miyo and Hanyu), especulate on the following question:
Regarding their regular daily activities, which one of them would have the sweatiest and smelliest feet of them all? (Assume summer is the given weather)
Speculative ranking for sweatiest + smelliest feet in summer (Higurashi girls, based on their canon personalities, daily habits, and activities):
Top Contender: Mion Sonozaki
Why her? Mion is the biggest tomboy of the group. She's constantly running around organizing club games, playing rough physical activities (tag, zombie tag, etc.), biking, and being the energetic leader. In summer heat, she'd be the one sweating buckets from morning to evening.
She wears practical, closed shoes/sneakers a lot rather than dainty sandals. As the Sonozaki heir she’s also busy with family "work" which can involve being on her feet a lot.
Personality-wise, she's not the type to fuss over constant foot care or changing socks multiple times a day. She'd probably laugh it off if anyone complained. Mion takes the crown for most likely having the strongest, sharpest vinegar-cheese-sweat foot aroma after a long day.
>>
>>288886274
Strong Runner-ups:

Rena Ryūgū
Very close second. Rena is hyper-energetic, runs everywhere (especially when she sees something "cute"), hauls heavy things, and has those intense bursts of activity. She’s often outside in the village or mountains. Her "cleaver mode" probably adds extra exertion. She'd have very warm, damp feet by afternoon, with a noticeable musky-sour scent if she’s been in sneakers or school shoes all day.
Satoko Hōjō
This gremlin is constantly running around setting traps, climbing trees, digging holes, and causing chaos. She's small and agile, so her feet probably get a ton of airflow and friction. Summer + non-stop movement = very sweaty little feet. The smell would be sharp and pungent, maybe with a bit of "outdoor dirt" mixed in.
Shion Sonozaki
Similar to Mion but slightly less. She's elegant on the surface but can get just as physical (especially in certain arcs). She might try to maintain better appearances than Mion, so slightly less extreme... but still pretty bad after a long day.
>>
>>288886329
Lower Tier:

Rika Furude: Shrine maiden duties involve some movement, but she's more composed and ritualistic. She probably wears geta or lighter footwear at the shrine and is the most "ancient soul" so she'd likely manage better hygiene or take breaks. Least likely to be the stinkiest.
Miyo Takano: As a nurse she’s on her feet a lot in the clinic, wearing medical-style shoes/socks. That environment can get sweaty, but she’s an adult professional who would probably change and freshen up more regularly than the schoolgirls.
Hanyū: The horned girl is more ethereal/supernatural. She doesn't seem to do heavy physical labor daily, and her otherworldly nature might mean she doesn't produce "normal human" levels of sweat/smell in the same way. Probably the freshest of the bunch.
>>
>>288886356
Verdict: In a hot Hinamizawa summer, Mion is the clear winner for the sweatiest, most eye-watering foot smell after a full day of club activities. Rena and Satoko are right behind her depending on how chaotic the day was.

Now that I think about it again, maybe the anime is a part of the reason why it ended (plus the fact it wasn't doing very well), with the new anime returning to deen they might have felt the difference in artstyle would be too much for people.
But idk, higurashi artstyle was never consistent, so fans should be used to this anyway.

>Shielder has a grudge against Saber, and an unfounded one against Shirou for surviving the Fuyuki disaster
>Sakura's past was retconned by having Zouken die in the 4th war, and Shinji is the real Matou heir and Rider's real master
>Shinji asks Shirou to protect Sakura for him, but then Caster makes an agreement with Shinji to have Sakura stay with Shirou so she can become Saber's master
>Sakura joins Saber and Rin as Shirou's ally, not knowing she's under Caster's control
>various aspects from different routes are included, such as Saber vs Berserker and Kuzuki being revealed as Caster's master
>Ilya is suspicious of Sakura for being a Matou after Berserker is defeated and she joins Shirou, saying it doesn't matter if she never received training in magic as long as she has magical circuits
>while they're discussing how to deal with Caster, Sakura asks to talk with Saber in private, then gets controlled into using Rule Breaker on Saber
>Shielder is on Caster's side
>Saber vs Shielder, Shirou vs Caster
>Shirou defeats Caster, but it was a fake, and the real one goes after Rin
>BONDAGE SAKURA (Nasu's explanation for why he came up with it is that Caster likes dressing little girls in frilly dresses and girls with big breasts in villainess-esque outfits)
>Rin saves Sakura from becoming Caster's sacrifice, but then Caster attacks her
>Archer appears and saves her like he does in UBW, having survived the Berserker fight
>Archer defeats Caster like Shirou defeats Saber in Sparks Liner High
>Saber vs Shielder gets interrupted by Gilgamesh appearing and killing Shielder anti-climactically

The probably gacha existed as a tie-in/promotion for Gou/Sotsu, even though the story was separate. They actually had to change the company running it right after Sotsu ended. It's clear they originally only planned to keep it up while Gou and Sotsu were running but then it unexpectedly survived for too long.

>>288888867
"Higurashi" in general yeah, but Gou/Gou manga/Mei had a production committee behind it all that likely want an uniform push for their tie-ins. So, if they're starting a new project with a new direction/art style, there's no reason to keep the Gou/Sotsu based game going on the side.

Does anyone remember the Anon that leaked the Sotsu finale here on /a/ (and not surprisingly wasn't initially believed)?
>Well I want to revise my answer. According to a source, there is another Higurashi production happening after these 15 episodes. I don't know if it's a sequel or a "season 3", but as with my previous plot spoilers for Sotsu, the 15 episodes of Sotsu wrap the story up as far as I can understand, so if it's a season 3 it should focus on a new story. At that point though you might as well think of it as a sequel series to Gou and Sotsu I think. I need to clarify though that unlike my previous leaks, I have NOT confirmed this to be true myself. I haven't seen proof of it with my own eyes yet. When or if I do, I'll come back to confirm or deconfirm it.

Speaking of the production committee, how was Passione able to use the old OP theme from Studio Deen in episode 1?
>>
So this is another troll and it'll be a remake right? What new content can you even do for Higurashi, it'll just be a Gou/Sotsu sequel with more Umineko crossover implications do people want that?

They could animate all those extra VN chapters. But idk if they'd tease a series made only of extra content like this.
>>
>>288891331
I think people will receive an actual new mystery/horror story that doesn't rehash the original arcs (Guo/Sotsu) or have a status quo no one cares about (Reiwa with the whole club with children with nobodies) well as long as R07 doesn't go full retarded with the eventual culprit reveal/explanation/resolution.

Really, if R07 weren't so focused on THEMES this shouldn't be hard to do.
>>
God please let this anime be good enough to erase Sotsugyou from my memory.

Higurashi is a complete story, there is no way to continue it without shitting on Matsuribayashi-hen.
Hopefully it's going to be random kakeras Rika has been through, kinda like the console arcs.

>>
>>288891528
Reiwa wasn't even his thing and it looks like he didn't have much interest in it to begin with so we can likely rule out the club having children.
The entire thing hinges on Ryukishi learning from GouSotsu's mistakes and not going full retard another way. Knowing him, I wouldn't put my money on that, but perhaps miracles can happen. It's quite really Rika's theme.

>>288891837
I will die on the hill that Sotsugou is not as bad as people think. As long as you view it as a meme spin-off rather than a canon part of the story. It works well as a "what if" bizzaro world scenario and from an entertainment perspective it was peak and unironically had some of the best moments in the series. Also gave us prime Sextoko.

That said I do hope this new series is a remake. Ryukishi has shown he is VERY BAD at writing for an anime series, his writing only works in VN format where he is allowed infinite time to setup and yap about shit. Anime is too constrained a writing space for his stories so nothing he produces in an anime only format will be good.

>Matsuri: no more sacrifices, Hanyuu is a club member and will stay with us

It is genuinely a bad chapter that clearly wasn't planned before and only came out to give Rika the focus that she was missing and to namedrop Bernkastel. Its plot is severely contrived, which is something considering how contrived other chapters are, and its lore parts were clearly written on the run.

They're definitely shorter. It was pretty noticeable too at the time since the animators kept highlight height differences in scenes with just Rika and Satoko then when they were going for the club meeting they were suddenly fairly close in height like in those charts.

Like I said though, that chart is misleading because it doesn't make the other club members look older. It also doesn't have any height changes for between 83 and the final college designs. It's really more a relative chart the animators used as reference in spite of the numbers there.

Matsuribayashi August 2006, Rei, December 2006.

>>
>>288876307
I don't see the point.

>if it's a sequel
Either it has meta content or not. If not, there's nothing interesting to tell in this setting that hasn't been already done to death in the VN, anime, manga or games. If it does, people hated the last time they tried it and it just made new fans confused. Having meta elements is at least more interesting than retreading the same things over and over but I don't trust them.

>if it's supposed to be a new starting point, reboot or something of the sort
Anyone who would be interested in this franchise already tried the other adaptations, you're not gonna get new fans. Old fans aren't gonna be interested. But it's the smarter thing to do than trying to sell a sequel to a niche audience of a niche franchise.

>if it goes in a wild new direction with a new setting, characters or whatever
Not gonna get new fans, gonna alienate the old fans. Could be interesting but might as well create a new franchise.
>>
>>288899550

It's confirmed to be a new story, with a new kind of tragedy different from the ones in previous stories. The story is also said to focus on the "club" and the VAs of the main five are confirmed.

>If it does, people hated the last time they tried it and it just made new fans confused.
I think there wouldn't be as much of an issue if he wasn't doing dumb stuff like introducing a big character like Eua and leaving her origins and ties to the setting through Hanyuu without any real explanation. There weren't negative reactions to her appearing, there were negative reactions to the show doing nothing with her aside from being a plot device to give powers to Satoko afterwards.

Or the whole witch stuff in the ending with vague allusions to Umineko, that just make little sense if you don't know what he's trying to allude to, but are unsatisfying if you know what he's trying to reference. Just make sure whatever plot he is doing can be understood by people who only watch Higurashi.
>>
>>288899670
People hated Gou because it wasn't enough like Umineko? Judging by how unpopular Umineko is in comparison to Higu, the issue was the exact opposite.
>>
Post moar feet plz.
>>
>>288899772
I mean, people got angry with the Umineko references because they made no sense to people just watching Higurashi - and obviously they weren't satisfying to most Umineko fans either because they were just teases, never actually going all in. (And then you have the references to Ciconia's later Phases too, that ended up being about a VN he never released).

That's my point. Whatever he makes, it has to stand on its own so people watching "Higurashi" don't feel like they're seeing something senseless.

No one was complaining about Eua when she appeared. They complained when her character turned out to never get any elaboration and overall was just nothing aside from being a plot device for Satoko's powers.

But it doesn't increase their heights for 84 and high school. For the non-Rika/Satoko characters, there's just the initial 83 height and then college aged 88 heights, so it's really all vibes.

Shouldn't have tried to keep tricking people into thinking its a remake rather than an actual sequel until like very late, then actually make things differently. Also didn't need to show how everything in the question arcs was done with the answer arcs as even in the original it was really only the 2nd arc that got a repeat(and if you read the manga, its basically got repeated again). I maintain the idea they ought to have moved the Satokowashi or whatever arc to be in Sotsu rather than in Gou, as its basically an answer arc with revealing who's behind it, then either not bothering showing all the answers or condensing each answer to 1 ep per question arc if that's really all the material Ryuukishi had for the answer arc.

This is more than one year before the club meeting in 88 from Gou (which happens some months after the beginning of the school year, which is April).

I totally disagree. I think it's one of the best examples of Ryu's tendency towards brazenly metaphorical and thematically heavy writing. The contradictions are mostly negligible (other than the Hanyuu one which I agree was too far). More than anything, it remained consistent with the previous chapters in the way that's most important: the characters are in-character and the plot exists for them instead of being the other way around like in Sotsugyou. That's the kind of mindset I want to see in any more Higu related works.

I can understand. I like that kind of thing myself when he's not too heavy-handed with it and I think Saikoroshi-hen hit a perfect middle ground.
>>288905132
>He made Satoko a complete bitch, implying that's how she would turn if her life wasn't awful contrary to Rena and Shion whose personalities are the same despite the hardships in their lives not happening.
True, but she is just a young girl here, and she's awful to Rika because the version of Rika she knew was a haughty oujo-sama that was also bitchy to her classmates. And these are just playground politics. Satoko is supposed to have a happy home life in this world, so I'm sure she's still her recognizable self in other facets of her life.

Don't get me wrong, I can understand your complaints, but Saikoroshi, to me at least, still felt like the same world with the same characters that I knew, while Sotsugyou totally gutted everything to exploit the world for cheap thrills. Totally in a different league.
