I Highly, highly, highly recommend Higurashi to anyone who watches anime. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Higurashi_no_Naku_Koro_niI'm usually not one who enjoys the horror anime genre, but Higurashi has a different spin and it's just too interesting to pass up. The whole killer loli concept seriously doesn't get old. If I could summarize the anime in one sentence it would be... "Cute girls end up going insane and start killing people." I suggest you guys check it out at the very least, it's being fansubbed at the moment. One season is complete, and the second season is sill running. It's somewhat in the same league as Elfen Lied, so if you enjoyed that show, You'll probably enjoy Higurashi.

Veoh? Never heard of them. I even checked Fry's Electronics, and they have almost all the obscure anime stuff along with the mainstream crap. War.

Veoh is like youtube, without all the bullshit. Veoh mostly has fansubs, so its a good source for anime.

So I'm watching Higurashi... and the main cast dies, like, 4 or 5 times in different ways. What the f**k is going on here? Am I missing something? Is there point to all thi-- oh, Keiichi died again. Big surprise. War.

It consists of 'question' and 'answer arcs'. The question ones are usually where Keichi is in the middle of the plot trying to figure out what's going on, why it's going on, and killing some people himself sometimes in the process. the answer arcs are where the view point of the other main characer (usually one of the girls) shows there side of the story and why certain people suddely turned up dead and stuff like that. Not all of the question arcs are answered in the first season which is why one must watch the second season which has just started to come out (i think they're only up to episode 4)

And its only getting more awesome. I'm starting to finally tis in the differences between all the murders.

I had trouble doing that, i had to watch the arcs somewhat simultaneously to understand the whole deal.

Yeah, but the first three episodes have, like, NOTHING to do with the entire rest of the series. War.

Endless June It's a pretty big spoiler, but if you haven't finish the first season you won't get it. I'm just praying to god when everything connects it will be worth it, I almost gagged when Rena hypothesized that aliens are the cause of Oyashirio-sama's curse, which is still a possibility. I hope not.

I saw the whole season. The first three episodes still have literally no connection to the rest of the series except for a flashback scene in the second to last episode. Seems sort of contrived really. Weakened the show in my eyes. War.
