Hinamizawa, a small, seemingly idyllic rural village in Japan, circa 1983. The village is known for its annual Watanagashi Festival, which honors the local deity, Oyashiro-sama.

"Higurashi no Naku Koro ni - Kai" continues the story from "Higurashi no Naku Koro ni" and focuses on providing answers and resolutions to the mysteries and questions raised in the first series. The narrative delves deeper into the true nature of the events in Hinamizawa, revealing hidden truths and the real cause behind the series of tragedies.



Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai is the second set of stories, the "Answer" arcs, comprising:
-Meakashi
-Tsumihoroboshi
-Minagoroshi
-Matsuribayashi
