Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni 22 - Rena
I’m so glad that the Shion arc is over! And this is so much fun. But I have to confess: I have also homework, so this is going to be a quick review. This episode was in three parts. We see in the first part Rena with the ‘treasure hunting’ and that she has killed someone. Everyone was sad about it and it was a bit vague. I’m so looking forward to the moment that we’ll find out.^^
The second part was about a watergun fight with the club. It was so great to see Rika being cute, and Mion being defeated, Satako and her traps, and Rena and her guts and Keiichi. I’ve laughed so much about it. Rena and Keiichi won the game and the penalty game was even greater! The losers had to serve in the Angel Mort in the weirdest costumes ever and it was so great to see Irie and Rena fangirling about Rika, Satako and Mion. Really, it was.
The third part was the more serious part. I had so much pity with Rena when she was in that bus convincing herself that she was happy. Her parents seem to be divorced, and her mother had the nicest way ever to tell her: ask her who she likes the best and with who she wants to live and if she remembered some guy and that she was pregnant of him. Her mother wanted her to live with her but Rena was so angry that she didn’t want to and so she stayed with her father. Her father has a new girlfriend, Rina. Later in Angel Mort it appears that Rina is a slut, and that Satako’s uncle is her pimp. They live from blackmailing and cheating and with force. They plan to blackmail her father. Rena really got angry about it. Next episode should be a bomb in it. I want to see.^^
