I’ll be honest. I don’t like the fact that might be coming the next episode. In fact, I can’t even pronounce it. Episode 17 showed me that Higurashi can be pretty disgusting. Episode 19, it’s going to be worse. Much worse. We know how Shion and Keiichi and Rika and Satako and just everybody ended? Well. Eehm. Yeah. I don’t want to know. But, the next episode will be watched with a bucket, my wonderful bottle full of water (it helped me a lot with episode 17… great defence of the horrors..), tissues, an empty stomach, and earplugs. If anyone has a great idea that I’ve missed, please feel free to tell me about it.

Anyway, before I already get disgusted out before I’ll see that episode, let’s talk about this suprisingly, pretty quiet, nice, cute, and also fearing episode. Shion continues to go crazy. Mion got by as well, because she felt guilty. Shion said that she forgave her, but the moment when Mion begun about Satoshi, the demon inside Shion woke up. Wait? Wasn’t Mion the one with the demon?.. Ooh dear, this going to be pretty confusing with the time we’ll find out. Even so, Shion had killertensions and almost killed her beloved sister. Untill she saw Mion nails.. Well eeuhm. Yeah. Mion said that it was unfair and she did the ‘***’ as well to please her grandmother and so Satoshi and Shion could live together. Satoshi ran off. WAIT! Wasn’t Mion the murderer of Satoshi?! Appearently, not. Who then? That old hag? A well. We shall see.

One year later, dejavu with the dialect punks. And who’s coming to the rescue..? Satoshi # 2. Oh no, this guy name is Keiichi. Baka. Keiichi showed that he can be really funny.^^ Shion got more information from Mion. Mion is in love with Keiichi. Duuh! And of course, she talked about the notorious-to-Rena-given-doll. That did hurt, and Shion teased her a bit and it was really funny to see Mion so giddly about it. But meanwhile, Shion didn’t forgot about Satoshi. Oh-oh.

The scene after that, was hilarious. Keiichi had mistaken Shion for Mion and Mion saw them holding hand in hand. We saw Shion pulling one arm of Keiichi, and Mion the other one. Shion was so funny and she let go because otherwise her sis would start to bite her. Keiichi thanked her and patted her on the head, and Shion while having flashbacks run off. Mion was just GREAT then, giving everyone tasks like Rena should stand on guard duty, Satako should do the traps, and Rika should throw some salt.^^

Shion, was too upset and for the first time, said she hated Keiichi, she heard the notorious footsteps. I keep on wondering why on earth she is loving Satoshi so much. I mean, how long did she know that guy? I guess 2 weeks. Not more. Adolescent.
Oooh! Also btw, she met Takano in the libary, that gave her more information about the festival. The Wanatagashi was about to start, and Takano already informed her that she went to the Shrine storehouse. Shion already knew what was inside, but she thought that it would be good to see what happened to Satoshi. But she didn’t dare to go alone, and so Keiichi came along as well. We know what happened after that. Shion kept hearing the footsteps, panicked, and at home, she heard Mion and the Old Hag talking about the new victim, Mion looked scary and Shion scared.^^

Will be continued. I fear for the coming episode. This will include what happened to Shion or Mion and it doesn’t look to well. We all know what happened back then. Well. Euhm. Let’s say that I’m a little scared for a episode 17 flashback.  

Yeah. I’m afraid of this episode. The reason should be clear. I’ve seen this episode one week ago, and I just couldn’t blog about it. This means that this review is going to be short. And yeah, I have to blog Higurashi 18 as well so I have no chose. Well.^^

In summary of this episode: Shion felt still down because what happened in Higurash 16. Mion called her to say that Satoshi called her, to apologize to her and said to Shion that she had to call him. So she did and they both apologize for what they have done. Satoshi started to act strange, just like Keiichi before did. We know then, Satoshi is going to kill his aunt. Just like Keiichi killed the uncle. And yeah, he killed her, with the bat. Of course. Satoshi asked Mion/Shion to take care of Satako during the Wanatagashi.This makes me wonder, because how did Mion know about Keiichi? Unless he called to Shion without realising it. Or something like that.

After Satoshi killed his aunt, he didn’t run off. Shion hears from Mion that the aunt was killed. Shion dressed up like Mion and she run into Satoshi. He looks really bad. Like he hasn’t slept in ages. Then, things look bad when Oishi comes by. He wants to ask Satoshi some questions about his aunt and we can all see the direction this is going. Shion stands up for him and reveals her true indentity. They go to the policestation, later Shion is picked up by some maffiaguys of the Sonozakifamily. This is going to be troublesome.

Their grandmother is in a rage, and Mion takes Shion to the special basement and we can see that Shion was never been there before. Let’s not talk about the following scenes. Shion revealed her love for Satoshi, and said that she didn’t care for everything. The family was outraged. She had to tear out 3 fingernails because of her mistakes and that she would been forgiven. If not, the people that helped her would see some trouble. Including Satoshi.

Ouch.

After that, Satoshi dissapeared. If he had fleed, or Mion got to him, I don’t know. In fact, I don’t want to know. I was totally disgusted out by this. Naah, I can’t handle this scenes too well. Apologizes for the late review and the quality of it.
