**Make sure you have the Consolas font installed or else the font patch won’t work. (Kai arcs only) Kaibrid applied to all appropriate arcs. (Arcs 1-4 only) Editorashi already applied. Sounds replaced with those from the original Japanese version. Make sure to check the Options menu and hit “Call Box” for the right-click function if it hasn’t already been done. All music tracks replaced with those from the original Japanese version. Sprites and backgrounds replaced with those from the PS2 Matsuri version. The patches and fixes for the sound novel arcs are as follows. ※This post contains ALL EIGHT Higurashi arcs fully patched, but until I find a working DL link of the sound novel minigames from the Japanese version, they will be omitted from this post. The good thing about the new host is that the volumes don’t have to be split into parts anymore, so there shouldn’t be any complications this time over so-and-so not extracting like there was in the past. Since MediaFire literally sabotaged half the stuff inside my account (Matsuribayashi-hen, the first four arcs, and the minigames were unfortunately part of the victim list) and gave me a bunch of strikes, I had to re-download and re-patch a lot from scratch, plus move everything to a different file host. While it seems impossible to tell their delusions apart from the mystery of Hinamizawa, slowly the truth is revealed.Happy Watanagashi to everyone!! This is such a late post I’m sorry Usually, the crime involves the murder of one of their own friends. In each story arc, he or one of his friends become paranoid, and a crime is committed. Keiichi himself soon becomes drawn into the strange events surrounding the Watanagashi Festival and Oyashiro-sama. Keiichi learns that every year for the past four years, one person has been murdered and another has gone missing on the day of the Watanagashi Festival. However, the tranquility abruptly ends after the annual Watanagashi Festival, a celebration to commemorate and give thanks to the local god, Oyashiro-sama. Keiichi joins their after-school club activities, which consist mostly of card and board games (and punishment games for the loser, usually him.) Hinamizawa appears to be a normal, peaceful, rural village to Keiichi. The main character, Keiichi Maebara, moves to Hinamizawa and befriends his new classmates Rena Ryugu, Mion Sonozaki, Rika Furude, and Satoko Hojo. Higurashi no Naku Koro ni takes place during June 1983, at a fictional rural village called Hinamizawa, which has a population of approximately 2000.
