IT WAS SO DISTRESSING (but some of the stream comments were pretty great; I liked the one that said something like 'bored now, go back to the normal stream'). I've just properly met Arimura, yes!

The Higurashi manga is definitely worth checking out! It's a good way to remind yourself of the story and the mysteries and also to see Keiichi's many expressions of emotional agony and/or wide-eyed terror.
