The ending just great, best ending that i have ever seen for a while. Especially after read Frederica Bernkastel's poem

Spoiler for Frederica Bernkastel's poem:

That’s because
I’m gonna become much much more happy from now on.

I’m not gonna compromise with just this.
We are gonna take back all of our happiness that we lost.

For me, that’s about a hundred year’s worth.
For you, a thousand year’s worth.

-Frederica Bernkastel

So i guess.....

Spoiler for Ep 24 part C:

Miyo Takano have to experience a thousand years failure in all world, with hundreds fails before she can experience the happiness that she have in part C. The 20th flag is hard to get in fact.

I think

Spoiler for thoughts:

The poem is for Hanyuu/Oyashiro sama . Cause knowing that Takano is twenty years older than Rika . Oyashiro-sama's curse would have started much earlier. I don't think ,it took 900 years to takano to Follow her Grandpa's plans. And Hanyuu (or should i say

Spoiler for .:

Oyashiro-sama

have one thousand years of failure

Spoiler for Higurashi Matsuri:

Starting with Ouka.

[Ithekro]

Well there is another main arc still in production. A sort of aftermath if you will.

[Ithekro]

Rei is still in production.

[Risa chan]

I See . Well , I'll be Waiting ( But does that mean that there'll be another OVa too ?)

[Ithekro]

There will be five OVAs.

The last episode ends on the morning of July 1st and focuses on Rika finally making it to that goal of getting past June. It ends with her, Hanyuu, and Satoko getting ready for another day of school, thus "Life goes on". We don't really get answers for the other characters and how things turn out for them.

Rei, much?

The 3rd disc was meant to include an epilogue for the series. Kokoriyashi-hen also helps to serve as an epilogue arc.

That leaves alot open. I would guess Rena gets Keichi and Satoshi never wakes up.

It's not clear who gets Keiichi. Satoshi presumably wakes up eventually considering what Irie says about his condition.

[Ithekro]

Rena seems fine with Mion getting K1, but then Mion seems fine with Rena getting K1 as well. Rika just likes to watch and Satoko has no idea what they are talking about.

Shion's got her man...assuming her man returns the feelings, but with Satoko considering Shion her nee-nee, things should be fine.

[typhonsentra]

Mion's fine with Rena getting him? She was crying over the idea of that in one episode, and Rena doesn't seem particularly interested in Keiichi outside of his "Fur Seal" and apparently that one story where she's under the influence of a spell.

[rogerpepitone]

She was crying that Keiichi didn't see her as a girl.

[typhonsentra]

Yeah but her crying continues into her conversation with Shion about Rena being a "Rival" (It's played off as funny this time though, she's still teary-eyed but chewing at a hankerchief) so it counts.

[Ithekro]

Yeah, but she als can't get mad at Rena because she's cute (or something like that). Shion has other ideas.

But as noted Rena seems fine with Mion having K1. The basic issue is what does K1 want? He's got the final call really.

Rena does care, as evidenced in Watanagashi-hen.

Is that info that was in the game only. I felt like in the anime Dr Irie was telling Shion that Satoshi was a hopeless case. This gives me another excuse to watch the last episode again to see if I mis-interpeted it.

As far as Mion and Rena geting K1, the reason I say Rena is that K1 sees Mion more as a rival. Also Mion's Grandmother really wouldnt like yet another Sonozaki girl marrying someone she didnt approve of. That just seems to much to overcome for Mion.

How is (paraphrasing here) WE'VE TOTALLY MADE A BREAKTHROUGH AND ARE ON THE VERGE OF A CURE telling her that Satoshi is a lost case? That is one heck of a misinterpretation.

Also Mion's Grandmother really wouldnt like yet another Sonozaki girl marrying someone she didnt approve of.

Oryou was certainly impressed with Keiichi in Minagoroshi-hen, so you never know. Although WHO HE ENDS UP WITH is not really something I feel was important enough for them to disclose.

I checked it out on youtube, Im wrong your right

Thats one of the thing that drives me nuts about anime or other works of fiction. I get so into the characters I want to know how things like that get wrapped up.

[Ithekro]

Well, one of those things about Higurashi is that K1 can end up with both of them, either of them, neither of them, die (usual result), or someone else entirely. Just depends on which world it is.

I definitely like this addition, and... just checked it's by the original author!? Awesome, is Kokoroiyashi him too?

What endings have him actually end up with anyone?

Spoiler:

The closest I remember is at the end of Shion's arc and that wasn't really her. I don't remember ever seeing him pursuing Rena.
