Higurashi WHEN THEY CRY: Demon Exposing Arc

Finished

ひぐらしのなく頃に 鬼曝し編

Natsumi Kimiyoshi's family moved away from the mountain town of Onigafuchi almost a year ago, leaving behind the superstitious fears of her grandmother, a native of the nearby village of Hinamizawa. The old woman believes that abandoning the mountains will incur the wrath of the local god, Oyashiro-sama. Natsumi, however, has found happiness in her new life, making friends and enjoying a peaceful existence far removed from those ancient beliefs.

That fragile peace is shattered when a catastrophic gas explosion devastates Hinamizawa, wiping out the entire village. Convinced this tragedy is Oyashiro-sama's curse upon their family for leaving, Natsumi's grandmother descends into fanatical devotion. Her attempts to appease the god become increasingly erratic and horrifying, plunging Natsumi's household into a suffocating atmosphere of dread where faith twists into madness, and the family's safety is thrown into question.
