| There's a thing i don't really understand. Professor Takano says he is not affiliated with any research institution. How can he than be a professor? Is he simply a teacher? Anyone know what is up with that? |
| I'd feel sorry for Takano if she took her rage out on the people that scorned her but she massacres a town of people who did nothing to her. And Hanyuu is finally in the fight. GAME ON! |
 |
| Ok, what was with the *grandfather* hanging up on her like that? This little girl is in obvious distress, crying to him for help, and he just hangs up on her? What an asshole, idc if he did change his mind afterwards, hes a dick. Also how the hell did he even know where to find her lol? It was nice to get some back story on Takano though, It made me feel pretty bad for her honestly. I'll also admit that I felt bad for the grandfather in the end there. That after credits scene was also pretty interesting, Takano called Hanyuu the resident *god* of the village. So I guess this confirms shes Oyashiro then? Oh, and has Hanyuu always been able to manipulate objects like that? If so why didn't she help out earlier, like idk, when Takano was killing all of her friends? Did she just conveniently forget she could interact with things in the real world lol? Well, at least shes finally starting to get involved. |
 |
| Great episode. Looking forward to more, good luck Hanyuu. |
| Hanyuu about to go full on psycho xD |

I think she ran out of money for the call, though I guess we can't definitely tell. Really, this episode goes to show that obsessive love is often more dangerous than hate. Too bad Takano never really learned how to properly love people again after her trauma. |
| Every day you can read a book or watch some anime is a good day! |
| I do feel bad for her and her "grandfather", and I also understand why she wants to avenge him and make him a "god" but that doesn't excuse her for killing the entire Hinamizawa. I still hate her. |

Just finished reading this part of the VN (been watching the anime as I go through it), and in the novel it states that the time ran out. Payphones need more money if you want more time, and Miyo only had a ten yen coin. And for your second question, he found out what orphanage she was sent to. |
| So... why exactly did she turn out evil? It seems like she did not really have a reason tbh, if anything she should be made about the people who trampled on her grandfather's research. Why kill the villagers??? |
| More of Miyo childhood is revealed... Also more info about Hinamizawa Syndrome Research... The after credit scene showing showdown between Hanyuu & Miyo are just amazing!!! |
 |
| Wriggling. What a great title to described these damn episode. The life journey of a little Takano Miyo in term of changing her dark fate awaiting her. Losing parents at the young ages. Tortured at the young ages by crazy people, until forcefully challenge the God, that led her into a determined little girl with a lot of grudges over her minds. The grandfather who cares her so much, got dumped by those researcher groups that couldn't accepted his masterpiece research. She finally made her minds up, determined herself until the limits, study well to pursuit her grandfather's dream, letting him to be a God that could stand above everything, even using the wrong path to overcome the situations. Yeah, by using Hinamizawa Syndrome as a stepping stone, regardless of all the safety of the villagers, regarding the risk of the parasites, regarding the risk to be a villain for the whole serialization. Thats a wriggling life, Miyo must be faces, at Higurashi's universe. What a deep meaning, she even didn't fear one millimeter against the local god. And, yes, its really happening until the next future of the others universe. Their oaths always became a reality, over the time and space, and became a massive headache sickness, for Rika and her friends at a certain parallel universe. Lol! |

 Hide and seek is the best offline games on this fatamorgana-called-world-thing. Please comment nicely. I am newbie here. I'm level  on mal-badges. View my badges  |
this seems a bit far fetched but ok then... |
| Takano, you damn pickle. How far Takano has fallen, what happened to making your grandfather God. I think originally she just wanted the world to know her grandfather's research but, along the way her goals became warped. That post credit scene though, let's fucking go. I am loving it when people stand up to Takano like Rena did. |
 |
| Okay backstory. I don't care much about her. I liked the end credits. Game on. |

| Hanyuu Rage Mode? Hoo that was something nice to see for ones other than Narazuya Hanyuu. I wonder when Miyo started going in wrong direction when her will was to make Takano be remembered through his research. |
