Higurashi When They Cry had one of the most satisfied endings i've seen in an anime so i was incredibly shocked to hear that they're making yet ANOTHER OVA series to commemorate the series' 10th anniversary - Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kira (When They Cry Glitter)

So far, all i have is a MAL link :- http://myanimelist.net/anime/10491/Higurashi_no_Naku_Koro_ni_Kira

What are your thoughts on this? Disappointed? Excited? Meh?

The OVA is slated for 4 episodes which'll release over the course of July 21 to Jan 25 so I hope they can do a good mystery short this time rather than what they did in Rei.

It'd be nice if MAL would actually load so I could check more into it.

From what I see there is no mention of, nor any picture confirming that Keiichi will be in this OVA however it does show Satoshi Houjou. I figure this OVA more than likely will either be some sort of prequel of what happened with Satoshi even though they have pretty much explained it or it'll be a sequel to the last OVA and show how everyone is coping after the events of what took place now that everything is back to normal and no longer repeating. Though if it's the latter I wonder why Keiichi hasn't been shown yet.

*edit*

Never mind I take that back. Apparently Keiichi is going to be in it after all. So I guess that marks out the former option, and makes the chances of the latter option even higher. Then again it could just be some mid-series filler everyday slice-of-life nonsense though too just to 'bring the characters back together' for the anniversary of the series.

That's what i was afraid of. Still, I'll be sure to check out the first episode when it comes out in July to see if they make a good story or just another pool episode filled with meaningless fanservice.

The thing about just checking the first episode.. the last ova the first and last episode was filler crap while the heart of the ova laid within episodes 2-4.
