Rena striked again.

The person must be infected by the Hinamizawa Syndrome.

But why not write Oyashiro-sama?

Well, as long as nobody got hurt...

Is Higurashi still a popular around middle school kids in Japan?

I guess weird stuff still happen wherever you are.

So people just right up blame Higurashi series because it's written Higurashi and similar incident happened in the series?
I mean, Higurashi ended like 10 years ago even.

I don't think age has anything to do with anything though the last anime OVA for it was only 4 years ago. But they also have live action episodes that was only last year. There was also the game on PS3 and Vita that was pretty recent too.

Yeah, no crap. I'd love to know exactly how mainstream Japanese media is presenting this story..."Otaku vandalizes middle school"

This made me laugh. Very Happy

I would love another season/arc of those crazy eyes, especially after not having to import your B/2 releases for Rei and Kai, my friend. Wink

Despite vandalism being an issue, better for vandalism than someone to get hurt/killed by a "Higurashi"-influenced attack.
