3rd Higurashi Series Planned For OVA Release
Submitted by Alafista on Thursday, 1 May 2008No Comment
The latest Megami Magazine released today has news confirmation that the 3rd Higurashi series will be released in the form of an OVA. The series will be titled Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Rei.
Apparently this name is based on the fandisc that was released in 2006 that contained 2 story chapters. However, nothing is confirmed as to whether the plot of the 3rd series will be based on those stories.

Seems like losta bad press around the anime series has influenced the producers to shift the franchise onto OVA instead.
Nonetheless, I’m looking forward to hearing the reviews about the live-action movie adaptation which is opening on the 10th May.
