Tatarigoroshi was a good chapter. It had a great amount of mystery, drama, and emotion. The last several hours were a trip, and I want to uncover more.

This one is less focused on lore and worldbuilding and more on some very real traumas that happen in real life. Definitely the saddest of the three episodes so far (though it does get very weird towards the end).

Jan. 2025
one of the most horrifying depictions of child abuse I have ever read. the way my fucking stomach dropped during that tips screen showing domestic/family abuse statistics with satoko in the background, the music sting when it showed THAT particular statistic next to satoko's defeated and broken sprite. the ENTIRE scene where satoko breaks down sobbing and vomiting at lunch just from keiichi touching her head, and the way rena holds her and sobs apologetically for not being able to help her. fucking christ. I believe ryukishi07 or someone close to him has said that he used to do social work before he got into writing or publishing higurashi, and I 100% believe it. this was written by a man who has seen the depths of depravity, the worst of humanity and saw firsthand what it can do to a child forced to endure it. the scene of mion, rena, and keiichi arguing and discussing what could be done to help satoko out of her situation is one of the most impressively voice acted scenes in higurashi as a whole, ESPECIALLY rena. hearing her tear into keiichi for his well-intentioned but horribly insensitive comments towards mion and her assumed ability to "save" satoko was both incredibly gratifying and mildly terrifying. it's clear how much this little group of friends care about each other, but at the same time they only have so much they can really do with the tools at their disposal. it's a sad, real commentary on the difficulties of getting people to actually listen and help and the state of child welfare at the time in japan (though sadly it still remains pretty relevant today). So yknow I'd love to be able to give this chapter a perfect score but unfortunately we were introduced to a new character by the name of dr irie in tatarigoroshi. and in the chapter that otherwise teaches the subject of child abuse with the respect and gravitas it deserves, we have to listen to irie making weird-ass comments about wanting to marry satoko and have her as his maid. i get it, it was the early 2000's, it's meant to be comedic and we're supposed to sympathize with irie in the end because he too also wants to help save satoko from her abusive home life but it's kinda hard to do that when he spends the first third of his screentime being a total fucking creep. if it weren't for the fact that he has a pretty important role in the story going forward, I'd be happy to completely excise him from the whole thing and call it a day it really does suck because the rest of this chapter is just so good. I was right there alongside keiichi seeing red when it was revealed that satoko's situation was not improving and nothing at all had been done to help her despite their efforts. and in spite of the circumstances, I was kind of rooting for him when he began to crack and decided to take matters into his own hands. I just wish that irie and his prior comments didn't exist and didn't risk undermining what is otherwise such a real and respectful depiction of abuse with satoko's story 9/10, best chapter of the question arcs by far! just make sure to ignore higurashi gou/sotsu to not retroactively ruin this chapter in particular

This is definitely one of my favorite chapters throughout the whole series. Without spoiling, it depicts something that is very real and visceral and grounded compared to the more super natural and "out there" elements of the first couple chapters. Don't worry though, because it still has moments that make you go WTF. I thoroughly enjoyed a lot of the characters in this chapter and think this is where the writing really carries imo. I cannot recommend this chapter enough and I give you my word that if you played the previous two, this will probably be your favorite by the time the credits roll.
