This scene was really heartbreaking. Keiichi breaking down after realizing what he done previously. Brutally murdering Rena and Rion. I almost started crying myself.
Considering she probably did try to stop it in the past, with tragic results, she's probably stopped trying at this point and just tries to enjoy the moment with her friends regardless.
@@galgus7647 I understand certain parts of that in arc one but your talking about every time Rena told him where he went he was just hallucinating? Rena made a creepy appearnce when she listened to keiichis phone call, and his dad brought up the 2 cups of tea. You mind explaining me if he hallucinated that?
@@poggsvandoops94 This video explains it. Rena was worried for Keiichi, he was the one acting weird and Rena just was trying to help Keiichi, he was paranoic.
I can totally relate to Keiichi. Even though he was infected he had other reasons for his paranoia. It's hard sometimes to trust others when everything seems so messed up. Maybe that's what the show was getting at...
It’s Hinamizawa syndrome. The symptoms affected the brain that make him paranoid and make him doubt his friends. It also makes him hallucinate and hear stuff. So no, there wasn’t a needle in the red meatball-looking thing he ate. No, maggots don’t come out of your skin when you bleed. And no, the marker Mion was holding wasn’t a needle. In the fifth level of Hinamizawa syndrome, you can hear Oyashiro’s footsteps. I think that’s why Keiichi thought there was someone behind him when he called Ooishi in the phone booth in the last episode of the first arc.
@Gciso10 I Gaming "Oyashiro Curse" wasn't even real anyways, it's just a lie made up by Takano when she killed Rika's parents... She made it seems like Rika's mom disappeared where in fact Takano kidnapped her and did the same thing she is always doing when she was killing Rika then dispatch her body to make it seems like she disappeared then poison Rika's dad and played it like he was having a heart attack
@@noonebossesthegarnet2890 For the ohagi (the meatball looking things) she made him, she actually filled one of them with tabasco sauce. He mistook the heat of the sauce with being pricked by a needle in his Hinamizawa syndrome wracked state. Just an interesting little detail I thought was interesting.
@@thelazywanderer_jt Yea’ and the crying part for Keiichi was just pure raw emotion! Makes me wonder if his voice actor was upset about something or had an argument with the director
@@mikedancoolguy4574 damn for real? i keep seeing people say they like keichi's voice, but he sounds like fucking Goofy. every line sounds forced and fake, like the "uso da" scene with Rena. he sounds like he's trying too hard to do a peppy anime protagonist voice.
cutesy rika is annoying, but serious-rika is great. The shmion actress was pretty good. Keichii is decent. Satoko is good, but her laugh makes my ears bleed, (but i'm pretty sure thats the whole point). Overall, decent. Not the best due to the stinted and somewhat restrained delivery of most of the cast, but overall it shows that they took their job seriously and enjoyed their job. Although random things like "hugging weird" and that little "huh" that shion did right before satoko's speech is actually pretty freaking amazing. XD
I think Rika's annoying cutesy voice is intentional. Considering she's lived through many deaths and probably doesn't even try to maintain some sense of realism in it anymore. Before Keiichi's Miracle, she was at the point where she stopped giving a fuck about everything and just let it happen over and over again.
I always thought this was so funny sjxjshchdh. "Hmmm okay.... So why did you tell us all this?" "Yeah keichii you don't have to tell everyone this kind of stuff." Lmao
....Speaking of this weird 'deja vu' thing... Even in the 3rd season, and still seemingly with no explanation given, Keichi is still the only character who has consistently shown the ability to recall bits and pieces from other fragments. It's rare, but it happens. This is very different from Rika and Satoko who both have had direct interference to let them keep their memories across Fragments. I kinda wonder if something is lending him some help. It'd be kinda interesting if it was Battler or someone.
i know the english dubbed rika even in her cute kiddy mode sounds too much like an adolescent... only her serious "go back to tokyo" mode should sound teen/adult-esque. but not her kiddy voice!
@@Leviathan762-zh4lq also relatable as to WHY keiichi did what he did. its hard to have a clear head when youre paranoid and it feels like everyone is out to get you.
When Keiichi realized that Rena and Mion were trying to help him, I knew how that felt. I was often suspicious of some people because I was taken advantage of for my own kindness, which some soulless fuckers saw as weakness. Then I meet people, both friend, family and even now, lover alike, that are genuinely kindhearted and wanted to help me in their own ways, but I never appreciated it at first. A mistake I will never EVER make again. This anime was an eye catcher for me, but now it's a lifesaver.
The whole dub is just... Okay-ish when compared to the original sub This dub was done in a time where dubs weren't treated as respectfully as they are today 🙍
I'm rewatching this as the new series is happening and I really hope that Keiichi is gunna realize before the Onikakushi-hen arc finishes playing out or something similar. It would make sense, seeing as how he seems to be the only other person who has been able to recall a previous loop. Similarly it seems like he subconsciously remembers loops sometimes like when he gives Mion the doll after promising in previous loops if he ever had a chance to do it again he'd give a doll to her. Maybe this is just wishful thinking, but like after watching these poor kids die over and over for years I kinda just want them to live for once. But I'm sure it'll loop at least a few times first. I don't want to spoil too much about the new series for people who haven't watched it yet but of Rika had a plan of any kind she sure is letting this loop go pretty far before chosing to do anything about it, which seems like an odd choice to me seeing as how the last few times they had to go through the loop she was loosing more and more time so I don't know why she would waste any time unless something big is going to happen.
It’s crazy that like 2 or 3 days afterwards everyone besides Rena end up dead still. This whole miracle and Keiichi remembering a past life still was a dead end, but it was a start for Rika leading up the events of Kai
@@Shanethefilmmaker or yknow to criticise something with major flaws, such as the dub. it's also funny to watch bad english dubs, you don't need to take it as a personal attack.
Many of them, including myself, may have never heard the dub until now, meaning that by the time they knew they didn't like the dub the episode was already over
There is one YT comment that is right, the dub's decent because the VAs are at least giving legit effort but the problem is some of the performances can range from hit or miss average to actually good(JUST good) especially with Keiichi's actor but the worst performances for me has to go to both Rika Furude's English VA actress and Rena Ryuguu's too. One thing's for sure, this ain't the worst dub but it ain't something to write home about either. Mion's? I am going to give props to her performance because for me she sounds like she improved in this version. Overall, the dub could've been better but it's okay at best. There are some parts where the dub can sound pretty good especially on the first season if my memory serves me right.
God.. I remember uploading this.. I have since then made a new account and haven't uploaded anything. Also I was a really stupid fuck as the copyright isn't for Funimation but Sentai film works. It really makes me cringe looking back at this.
i will just say this as a fellow japanese anime watcher: i watch just cause its great to hear an english version of the original japanese dub version. I mean seriously unless you can read japanese or even understand the kanji for japanese language without subtitles you really arent entitled to even talk down badly on dub actors. But then again it can be another thing like you guys HATING cause you didnt get that role or you wanted someone else better to be voicing said person. Grow up kids unless you get into the film/acting career keep on hating and being salty. OH also pro pro tip: DONT WATCH THE DUB IF YOU DONT LIKE THE VOICE ACTING PERIOD! OH AND PS: Dont go correcting my words you no life grammar police nerds :) Have a nice/good day
***** My logic might not make sense but did you direct and hire the so and so person to voice these dub roles? Did you get the role yourself or even try to audition for it? Just cause we fully understand english doesnt mean we gotta bash on the company that hired people that dont have very good dub acting out the roles properly compared to its japanese counter-part. Who gives a load of crap about that fact of the matter is i hate/dislike people that bashes so hard on dub acting when you probably just hating cause you wasnt the one hiring these actors or you wasnt given a chance to prove you can voice it better. Lastly before i end this rant i'll say it again all you people that bash on any anime that is licensed and brought over to the US to be dubbed need to just get off of youtube and go be productive and do something else besides criticizing and degrading bad dub acting. Grow up little kids.
Also as bad as the dubbed voices were they have grown on me over the years. The dub was the first way I watched it so now it kinda has that old ADV like nostalgia to it for me
Alright I know this is a decade old and nobody sorts by new but cmon, how is nobody losing their shit over Mion's (Shion? I dunno) arm at the end ~5:21. Shits got me weak and I can't stop giggling
It sucks that they changed the English VAs for Higurashi Gou and Sotsu, I rewatched English after the Japanese one, but I prefer the English cast of the original series over the new English ones. The JP VAs were the same which is great for consistency, I wonder if they just couldn't get the original English voices to come back or what. Would've been nice, especially for Rika and Keiichi.
I know this is an old comment, but I think Rika's voice was done "annoying" on purpose. In the second season, when she's alone she speaks in a very deep voice since she's supposedly been doing this time loop thing over and over so I'm guessing she had to act like she was a little kid still yknow....Just my opinion, I do agree it's a lil annoying
Also, while I think anime did a great job. This lone scene was made better in manga. The reason is Rika. In anime she takes it like this is normal. In manga she is as shocked as Keiichi, because this is the first time she sees person remembers past beside her. I kinda like manga for making Rika more emotional.
One of the best works of fiction I've ever experienced. With how goofy, fanservicey, and hollow most animes tend to be, it feels strange to say that. But it's true. The translation here is in my opinion way better than the straight subtitled version, as it better shows how thankful Keiichi was that his friends tried to help him. Keiichi's voice acting is great. Rika is such a weak link, though. Her voice acting is...pretty bad.
came here after finding out that his eng va is the same as shuichi saihara’s. of course i wouldn’t have noticed this before, cause i only watch my anime subbed
You mean when she said, "What, you don't believe me?" That's the first question Arc Keiichi remembered. Rena and Mion seemed evil back then and as it turns out they were trying to reach out to Keiichi because he'd gone insane. Rena was trying to snap him out of it and it didn't work.
I dunno, things just got out of control by that point. Keiichi apparently got this disease that's been going around which is why he freaked out like that. The worst stages lead to you clawing out your throat.
Okay, when I first watched Higurashi, it was the dub. I didn't think it was bad, until _now_. Holy fucking shit, it's bad. Is it seriously that hard to find good voice actors/actresses? Obviously that's not the case since plenty other less-known anime have way better dubs than this. Rika sounds like some girl going through the awkward stages of puberty, while Keiichi sounds like a generic super hero, and Mion... I don't even know.
I'm in the same boat, I originally watched the dub when I was younger because that is all I was still used to just watching anime on TV.. I've been rewatching the whole series subbed now and just.. my god.. horrible. Not all dubs are horrible, props to anyone who even tries, but yeah. I know its easier for the Japanese because there is no localization or translating, the animation is tailored to the voice acting there, so I appreciate dubs but.. many of them are awkward.
3:34 Bernkastel is such a bitch, why manipulate people in such awful situation like that one, first Keiichi kills his friends and then himself, and now this witch acts like she feels bad about it ? If this was real like a war or something from pure reality then I'd feel there isn't anything else wrong than the Hinamizawa Syndrome that causes all the tragedy inside people, but damn, everything is just part of a girly human-toying game ? That really scrambles all my feelings towards moments like this one where I can feel empathy towards Keiichi and Rika, well, most for Keiichi, but I feel like Rika isnt even real, just Bernkastel. I wonder about the true relation between Rika and that unhuman witch Bernkastel.
This apparently is getting a remake with a new animation. I haven’t watched this yet but know it’s screwed up. I’m not sure if their gonna change up some stuff and hands off some of the possible exceedingly brutal scenes.
ITS BAD TO ME. maybe because I’m use the they style to much but honestly a lot of the voices don’t fit in but at least they did rikas voice some justice or however you say it.
I think I figure it out I believe that they are reincarnated only do not reincarnated in the sense of past lives instead it's like they're in alternate universes but they're not basically there reincarnated in the same time frame which is kind of weird but this anime is so awesome I just watched the entire series well season one I don't know if this is season 2 I'm going to look it up myself and see if there is this anime is so awesome
+Johnathan Mason I agree, I definitely think there was an allusion to reincarnation in this series, that you couldn't fully enjoy it unless you understood it as well.
Drakila 94 Due to Featherine giving up on the game, the characters had to figure out the way to victory on their own, so as Rika kept going deep in the Multiverse, the deja vu's for certain gifted characters kept getting stronger, as Bernkastel's power depends on low probability, the deeper she dived, the more low probability events started taking place, the more she got stronger.

Oh now I remember, Rika's the reason I watch this is English Subbed
And then soutsu :,(
am i the only one who likes rika's voice
Yes. She sounds like a bootleg Misty.
I love Mion
Also as bad as the dubbed voices were they have grown on me over the years. The dub was the first way I watched it so now it kinda has that old ADV like nostalgia to it for me
I think he remembered because their bond was stronger than he thought That could Remember the loop he was in.🤔🤔🤔
Alright I know this is a decade old and nobody sorts by new but cmon, how is nobody losing their shit over Mion's (Shion? I dunno) arm at the end ~5:21. Shits got me weak and I can't stop giggling
The cycle repeat
This is hilarious!
It sucks that they changed the English VAs for Higurashi Gou and Sotsu, I rewatched English after the Japanese one, but I prefer the English cast of the original series over the new English ones.
The JP VAs were the same which is great for consistency, I wonder if they just couldn't get the original English voices to come back or what. Would've been nice, especially for Rika and Keiichi.
I really like Keichis voice acting,
but Rika's voice ruins the english dub for me..
I thought it was the other way around 😅
Oh, never mind...
Doyal Nitai yeah they ruined the image of rika to me
I know this is an old comment, but I think Rika's voice was done "annoying" on purpose. In the second season, when she's alone she speaks in a very deep voice since she's supposedly been doing this time loop thing over and over so I'm guessing she had to act like she was a little kid still yknow....Just my opinion, I do agree it's a lil annoying
@@RachelAnnTaylor
But her original japanese voice is sweet without being annoying.
Shuichi!! 🙀🤍
aaaand monomi (rika)
keiichi wonders why he didnt trust his friends but then he sees this face in the other world 2:54
also can someone closely observe this scene 3:09
He is just hallucinating everything up to that point though
@@alexiscando5709 can u clarify?
Why do you guys hate dubbed?!?! I think it is good!!!!!!!!
me too
I only hate Rika's voice but everyone else is fine. Keiichi's voice is my favorite voice.
Madi Delgado tue
Madi Delgado I know!!!!!
Madi Delgado is season 2 dub coming out?
miown.. satoekou and rica two..
1:30
i dont know anything about satoeshe! cuz nooen will tell me the truf abot it!
so many endings
Camryn Leach indeed!
My fate is mine to carved
God that rika voice lol
Rika sounds like Monomi.
Also, while I think anime did a great job. This lone scene was made better in manga. The reason is Rika. In anime she takes it like this is normal.
In manga she is as shocked as Keiichi, because this is the first time she sees person remembers past beside her. I kinda like manga for making Rika more emotional.
In which arc of the manga?
Which chapter?
nah the VN is what matters
One of the best works of fiction I've ever experienced. With how goofy, fanservicey, and hollow most animes tend to be, it feels strange to say that. But it's true.
The translation here is in my opinion way better than the straight subtitled version, as it better shows how thankful Keiichi was that his friends tried to help him. Keiichi's voice acting is great. Rika is such a weak link, though. Her voice acting is...pretty bad.
No, is just Moeshit.
the Japanese voice acting also sucks.
Kilik and Iok brought me here.
Kilik aside, Shuichi brought me here too
Also Keiichi has Kilik's VAs, I ended up liking him for that fact alone 🤩
@@tmma1869 😂😂😂 ikr
came here after finding out that his eng va is the same as shuichi saihara’s. of course i wouldn’t have noticed this before, cause i only watch my anime subbed
cause were friends
yeah friends that kill each other
If you watch the whole show, it makes sense. Its a tragic tale
Is that...shuichi?
I still don't quite get what happened at 2:10 What did Rena mean??
You mean when she said, "What, you don't believe me?" That's the first question Arc Keiichi remembered. Rena and Mion seemed evil back then and as it turns out they were trying to reach out to Keiichi because he'd gone insane. Rena was trying to snap him out of it and it didn't work.
Oh so they wern't evil at all? He just thought they were? Huh. So... why'd he claw his throat out??
I dunno, things just got out of control by that point. Keiichi apparently got this disease that's been going around which is why he freaked out like that. The worst stages lead to you clawing out your throat.
Ugh. That's brutal. But interesting. And I thought Rika counter-acted the disease.
+Brett Buchinski Not in the first arc.
Rika and Sakoto are kids I won't be too hard on them
Rika’s voice sounds like a character from Megaman Legends, although I checked the voice actor list for both Higurashi and Megaman and found no matches
Can someone fucking explain how they still each these I’m serious it scares the hell out me
Okay, when I first watched Higurashi, it was the dub. I didn't think it was bad, until _now_. Holy fucking shit, it's bad. Is it seriously that hard to find good voice actors/actresses? Obviously that's not the case since plenty other less-known anime have way better dubs than this. Rika sounds like some girl going through the awkward stages of puberty, while Keiichi sounds like a generic super hero, and Mion... I don't even know.
I'm in the same boat, I originally watched the dub when I was younger because that is all I was still used to just watching anime on TV.. I've been rewatching the whole series subbed now and just.. my god.. horrible. Not all dubs are horrible, props to anyone who even tries, but yeah. I know its easier for the Japanese because there is no localization or translating, the animation is tailored to the voice acting there, so I appreciate dubs but.. many of them are awkward.
The Japanese is just as bad
I like the dub but I've seen so many clips in the sub so it's really weird when I hear.
bro keiichi was in a other world where rena rion was killer man i feel bad but he had to kill them
3:34 Bernkastel is such a bitch, why manipulate people in such awful situation like that one, first Keiichi kills his friends and then himself, and now this witch acts like she feels bad about it ? If this was real like a war or something from pure reality then I'd feel there isn't anything else wrong than the Hinamizawa Syndrome that causes all the tragedy inside people, but damn, everything is just part of a girly human-toying game ? That really scrambles all my feelings towards moments like this one where I can feel empathy towards Keiichi and Rika, well, most for Keiichi, but I feel like Rika isnt even real, just Bernkastel. I wonder about the true relation between Rika and that unhuman witch Bernkastel.
Rika is the human form of Bernkastel while Rika's witch form is Bernkastel.
He is just like Nobuaki Kanazawa However He's very crazy than Nobuaki
Well I want to know where did you found the english dub clip? I want to do videos of Higurashi without the sub. So please tell me
Thewatchcartoon there ya go
I really wanna watch this but it would probably break me
圭一の演技いいな。まあ日本ならおれは保志さんでいいけど
This apparently is getting a remake with a new animation. I haven’t watched this yet but know it’s screwed up. I’m not sure if their gonna change up some stuff and hands off some of the possible exceedingly brutal scenes.
Not a remake
ITS BAD TO ME. maybe because I’m use the they style to much but honestly a lot of the voices don’t fit in but at least they did rikas voice some justice or however you say it.
I think I figure it out I believe that they are reincarnated only do not reincarnated in the sense of past lives instead it's like they're in alternate universes but they're not basically there reincarnated in the same time frame which is kind of weird but this anime is so awesome I just watched the entire series well season one I don't know if this is season 2 I'm going to look it up myself and see if there is this anime is so awesome
+Johnathan Mason I agree, I definitely think there was an allusion to reincarnation in this series, that you couldn't fully enjoy it unless you understood it as well.
Dafuqs up with Rikas voice?
Mee own, Sat oh koe and ree kah, too.
I hate the dub
Ughhh... My ears it hurts!!
Is rikas english va nunally from code geass
Yes!
If only passione used the OG VAs....
Old version is much better than the new one 🥲
I do like passionne but not for higurashi
4:47💙
Mature Rika sounds like Jennifer Tilly
I still can't figure out how he could remember something that technically never happened since time rewound itself.

Due to Featherine giving up on the game, the characters had to figure out the way to victory on their own, so as Rika kept going deep in the Multiverse, the deja vu's for certain gifted characters kept getting stronger, as Bernkastel's power depends on low probability, the deeper she dived, the more low probability events started taking place, the more she got stronger.
