Pt.1 of the EPIC Poca Jr. Higurashi readthrough
So a couple of days ago when i decided to reread higu, my little 9yo brother got absolutely PUMPED to have a new game on the pc.
Last year he watched me read umi, and actually made me translate the anime for him, and in 2020 he watched like 5 episodes of gou. So he has some idea what WTC is about.
Basically, he saw me reading it and decided to join. We're maybe 4/5 hours in Onikakushi, and the blud wants to present his thoughts.
1. Keiichi keeps looking at things from the way he sees it and is a hypocrite because he also has secrets
Surprisingly accurate blud! I'm really, really liking how well he understands the things we read, and it might kinda sorta make me proud.
2. He saw the Frederica Bernkastel poem and absolutely flipped out. He really, really liked Bern. So when he saw Furude Rika, he got like,,, rly happy.
3. He actually really dislikes Satoko. Why? Because he says that the OG sprites look like balloons and Satoko's steam sprite has 'evil red eyes'.
4. Because he saw the first gou arc, he thinks that he knows what will happen, so he's pretty distrustful if Rena
5. He likes Tomitake. He calls him Đura Tomić. Balkanification at its finest.
6. He saw the gousotsu OPs and knows that 'Zoe's alpha lizard' (eua) is there. He's really excited about seeing her at some point.
Honestly I'm really enjoying reading it to him! I think that his comprehension is much higher than mine was at that age. I thought about letting him watch the anime adaptation, but then realised that it would just sabotage his enjoyment of it.
Also. He won't let me read it without him, and he can't read it alone because he doesn't understand English. So he wakes me up to read it🥺🥺🥺
