about Kataribanashi-hen manga (I finally? read it)

I've never read Kataribanashi-hen before, since those stories were not written by Ryukishi and I thought they might not be really good (how mistaken I was!), but I have a paper to write so naturally I'm doing litterally anything else, sooo I started reading it and while there are those stupid fanservice type of stories there are some cute ones too and some that are silly in an enjoyable way, if you haven't read it and don't plan to, here are some things I found stupid/weird/cute/sad

Punishment Games are a Silver Bullet: I liked this one, as a punishment Keichi has to go on a "date" with every girl from the club, he sits with Rika and holds her hand while she's resting, he goes to Satoko's old house with her to clean it for Satoshi's return, he finds some marbles with Rena in the garbage dump and at the end he spends time with Mion showing her that it's okay to be girly sometimes even if some may say it doesn't match her boy-like personality

Minaitoshi-hen: this one had some sad moments. it's basically a world in which Keichi is not in Hinamizawa and girlies team up to fight Takano and there's this badass Rena panel

but then they are all killed and Keichi get's the syndrome while in Tokio

Little Demon: what the fuck was that even...

The Melancholy of Stir-Fried Vegetables: girls going crazy for Keichi, not for me but we have a yassified Rena that looks like she's 30 and a cute satorika page

Nienagashi: Keichi has his own Beatrice arc?

Hinageshi-hen: THIS ONE IS SO GOOD AND SO SAD GO READ IT YALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (I'm not gonna spoil it for you, just know it's crying for Mion chapter)

Satokoishi-hen: oh so Teppei's redemption arc wasn't a new thing and it wasn't even Ryukishi's idea...

The Butterfly's Dream -Endless Nightmare: all of Rika's nightmares come to life (also Hanyuu is umineko-style witchfied), the chapter ends with Zhuangzi's butterfly quote

Usomabushi-hen: Satoshi wakes up and he doesn't remember Shion yet she's willing to protect him at all costs (I CRIED GUYS, you know how I adore satoshion)

Rika-Sato Wars: aka satorika marriage crisis, I think that someone posted panels from that chapter here lately (witch of illusions was that you bestie?) and I wanted to read it since

The Cuckoo Clock and Dreams of a Loving Home: Takano (not)girlbossing chapter

Omorashi de Naku Koro ni: while this chapter starts as a stupid haha story it takes unexpected turn and it's actually good??

Limit: a different take on Meakashi, I liked this one, it's sad, it's scary, just how Higurashi should be

Welcome Home, Goodbye: Satoshi comes back (again!) and Rika is jelous...

it is really I'll make Rika stay in Hinamizawa forever but it's Rika keeping Satoko in her home now

Fans (even back then!) really saw how codepended the girls were and how hard saying farewell would be for Rika espiecially. I loved seeing her trying to stop Satoko (though she's spilling water to acomplish that, not blood hahah) and how devastated she feels to be left behind (ohh the pararels to gousotsumeguri!)

and after Rika got jealous of Satoshi, Hanyuu got jealous of Satoko and maaaan the girlies were FIGHTING

that's gotta be one of my favourite chapters (along with Hinageshi and Usomabushi)

Thank you: Hanyuu disappearing chapter (I cried again)

Yukiwatashi-hen: it's winter, Rika has problems but they have nice winter outfits tehee (and it's also a satorika chapter!)

girl yes

this post is getting too long so I think I'm gonna try to at least start my assignment, till something cries again, guys!

Higurashi: Kataribanashi-hen Chapter 11 - Butterfly Dream

Higurashi no Naku Koro Ni: Kataribanashi-hen Comic Anthology Ex

[escarlatafox]

Honestly I hope they get more love in Gou. Ichirou Maebara is one of the highlights of the manga. An off-the-wall bonkers artist who gets some of the funniest scenes. And I always thought Aiko was pretty cute. It's not exactly canon, but in one side story in Kataribanashi-hen she has this adorable bonding moment with Satoko. It's one of the only chapters that got an English fan translation. You can find the link on miiraclebreakers Tumblr. Page 5 I think.

Awwww that sounds awesome, actually! :D From what I’ve seen in both animes Keiichi’s dad seems like a pretty interesting dude, I love this description of him ahaha certainly makes me curious. I think I might try and check out the Satako bonding moment you mentioned too, I feel like she might be my favourite character simply because I love all of the sometimes contrasting different sides of her that we see and the different story perspectives we see her through as an audience.

This is going on a tangent but I think about this a lot;

at different times in the series, we see her as

-the unflappable prankster

-a badly abused child

-a bully

-someone herself being bullied.

We see the exact same act (her crying + crying out for her brother) through entirely different eyes too. That same crying sound can come across as incredibly annoying when it’s filtered through that specific Shion lens... but then in a different arc it is completely effective at making us feel sorry for her. It’s the same character. But the story and its portrayal are setting us up to view her from different angles and entirely different lights. Not to mention the fact that she’s, of course, multifaceted.

I love Satoko and my heart aches for her because she didn’t/doesn’t deserve anything that she’s had to go through. I love her confidence and pranking abilities and animegirl laugh. And I guess there’s a lot I could go on to say about the scene where her crying enrages Shion because there’s just, so much going on there, aaaah.

This turned into a more Satoko post than anything, whoops. XD

Remember when I posted my video translation of the Hundred Year Old Sickness (from Kataribanashi-hen Vol 5) all those years ago? Also sadly youtube took the annotations out so rip that.

Well have the manga version!

Found someone to typeset and had @isae-amane to look over the translation!

Now Keiichi's days are spent having fun and playing games with his new companions, and his life couldn't be better. However, one day he sees one of his friends, the tomboyish Mion Sonozaki, working at a maid café. Deciding to tease her about it, his initial joking quickly turns to shock as the girl reveals that she is actually Mion's twin sister, Shion. As luck would have it, both girls want to spend the annual Cotton Drifting Festival by Keiichi's side. But when Shion breaks the town's sacred rules and sneaks into a sealed shrine during the festival, dragging Keiichi along with her, things take a turn for the worse. Now, Keiichi and Shion find themselves in fear of being spirited away due to their mistake and must find a way to atone before it is too late.
