On one hot summer day in 1983, a transfer student named Maebara Keiichi comes to a peaceful rural village in Hinamizawa. There, he befriends his classmates Rena, Mion, Rika, and Satoko. Accepted as a full-fledged member of the "club," Keiichi and the gang plays all sorts of activities ranging from card and board games to hide-and-seek. But just as Keiichi was beginning to be assimilated in simple rural life, he stumbles upon the dark history of Hinamizawa. As Keiichi dives deeper into the mystery, he finds that his new found friends may not be all what they claim to be. |

I do not even know how to begin. This is such a great beautiful brilliant anime!
I have to say, if you just watch the first season, you will understand nothing. Probably you will think most of the story does not make any sense and that the anime has a weak plot, and that there is nothing more to it than random horror stories.
However, believe me, you couldn’t be more mistaken! To fully appreciate the brilliance of this amazing anime you have to watch Higurashi no Naku koro ni Kai too – any doubts you might have when you finish seeing this first season will be erased in it, I promise you.
All I can say (without spoiling it) is that it is very rewarding to see this anime until the end. Believe me, this is one of the most complex and intelligent anime I have ever seen. It is a masterpiece. *.*
I recommend it to everyone - except those who are easily impressed by blood or violence.
