This is a list of episodes of the animated Japanese murder mystery series Higurashi no Naku Koro ni. Note that none of the English translations, despite the sound novels featuring the text "When They Cry", are official titles.

As should be obvious, in this list major spoilers there be, arg!

Not yet aired episodes have humorous "placeholders" which will be replaced after airing . . . or after we get to completing it.

First Season (2006)[]

In 2006, the first season, entitled Higurashi no Naku Koro ni, was produced by the Japanese animation studio Studio Deen and directed by Chiaki Kon. It was released in English by Geneon and later Funimation, under the title When They Cry - Higurashi no Naku Koro ni. The series contained twenty-six episodes, which aired between April 4 and September 26, on a number of Japanese television networks, including but not limited to, Chiba TV, Kansai TV, and Tokai TV. The series is divided into six chapters, which are the first six chapters in the original visual novel series. First is Onikakushi-hen between episodes one and four, followed by Watanagashi-hen between episodes five and eight, and Tatarigoroshi-hen between episodes nine and thirteen, making the series half over. Next is Himatsubushi-hen between episodes fourteen and fifteen, making it the smallest of the story arcs. The last two chapters are Meakashi-hen, between episodes sixteen and twenty-one, and finally Tsumihoroboshi-hen, between episodes twenty-two and twenty-six.

Second Season (2007)[]

In 2007, the second anime season, entitled Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai, was produced by the same team as with the first season, containing twenty-four episodes. The series aired in Japan between July 6 and December 17 on several Japanese television networks, such as Sun TV, TV Kanagawa, and TV Saitama. The story is similar to the first season, but what was left unexplained in the first season is explained over the course of three separate story arcs. The first is an anime-original arc called Yakusamashi-hen, which is followed by the last two arcs from the original visual novel series: Minagoroshi-hen and Matsuribayashi-hen. On September 18, 2007, a sixteen-year-old girl killed her father with an axe in Kyoto, Japan. The remote similarities between Kai and the incident were too strong. In response, Tokai TV replaced episode twelve on September 21, 2007 with a cooking show.

First OVA (2007)[]

Also in 2007, after the second seson was aired, the first Higurashi OVA named Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Gaiden was released. The OVA contains a one episode extra arc named Nekogoroshi-henNekogoroshi-hen was a light novel released in 2006, but when Studio Deen saw Higurashi's growing popularity, released a 23 minute long OVA.

Second OVA (2009)[]

In 2009, the second Higurashi OVA, entitled Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Rei was released. It consists of three arcs, taken from the epilogue disc of the same name and a light novel released with the PS2 game. These three arcs are Hajisarashi-hen, Saikoroshi-hen and Hirukowashi-henHirukowashi-hen is a story based on the PC and PSP game Higurashi Daybreak. Hajisarashi-hen was originally found in Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Matsuri's Soundtrack, and was adapted to this OVA.

Third OVA (2011)[]

In 2011, the third Higurashi OVA, named Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kira was released. The OVA contains four arcs. However, these arcs are mostly fanservice celebrating the tenth anniversary of the Higurashi franchise. The four arcs are Batsukoishi-hen, Ayakashisenshi-hen, Musubienishi-hen and Yumeutsushi-hen. Batsukoishi-hen was originally released on Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Rei fan-disc that was supposed to be Meakashi-hen's epilogue, but was dropped for being too silly and irrelevant, while the rest has original stories.

Movie (2013)[]

In 2012, the very first animated Higurashi movie, Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kaku was announced. According to Ryukishi07, the movie will be based on Higurashi Outbreak. Outbreak is a short story which it's script is included in the CD jacket of Higurashi Daybreak's Original Soundtrack. On the 11th of June, new information was revealed about Kaku. Unlike the original concept, Kaku will be a Pachinko-OVA for the new Pachinko machine called "Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Itadaki" and not a movie. The OVA will be released on DVD with the Pachinko machine at the end of July. The pilot aired on 15th August, 2013 and it is currently unknown if more episodes will air in the future. After the release of Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Hō, which has the Outbreak arc included, the OVA makers revealed, in an interview, that the Kaku ending would differ from the original ending.

Third Season (2020)[]

When They Cry Wiki will leave the following original description as a testament to how fans were fooled by the releases and first episode:

In January, 2020, a new anime project was announced titled Higurashi no Naku Koro ni just like the original series. On March 21, 2020, the first trailer was released. The new anime will be a complete remake of the original series, made by Studio Passione with the help of Ryukishi07, featuring new scenes, new character designs by Akio Watanabe, but retaining the original voice actors.

In reality, the first and subsequent episodes of the first arc Onidamashi-hen demonstrate that this is a new series with a new set of arcs.

The new season was expected to be aired in July, 2020, but the COVID-19 forced its delay. On August 21, it was announced that the anime's new premiere will be October 1, 2020 and will consist of 24 episodes. The new anime airs every Thursday on TOKYO MX, BS11 and SunTV channels (except for December 11, 18 and 25, 2020 airing on Friday). On the 7th of October, information was leaked from Amazon's video service that the new anime's title is "Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Gō" (ひぐらしのく頃に業), featuring Onidamashi-hen as it's first arc, implying that the new series are not simply a remake, but a new set of arcs. As noted, subsequent arcs bore this out.

April 4, 2006
Having recently moved to the rural village of Hinamizawa, Keiichi has befriended four girls—Rena, Mion, Satoko, and Rika—and joined their after school club. Life is initially peaceful until Keiichi learns from a visiting photographer named Tomitake about a murder in Hinamizawa's past. He also learns about a dam construction project proposed by the government five years prior which was met with protest from the villagers until the project was withdrawn. When Keiichi asks Rena and Mion about any incidents relating to the project, they refuse to speak about it, making him suspicious.

The next day, Keiichi is interrogated by a police detective, Ōishi, and learns that Tomitake had committed suicide by clawing out his own throat, while Takano has gone missing, apparently as part of the curse. Upon becoming Ōishi's informant, Keiichi notices a change in Rena and Mion's behavior, suspecting them of hiding something from him, though he too is accused of keeping secrets for his ties with Ōishi, which he denies. Keiichi delves deeper into the history of the curse during a phone call with Ōishi, learning that one of the victims is Satoshi, a boy who had apparently transferred out of school in Hinamizawa before Keiichi arrived.

That night, Rena and Mion visit Keiichi visit him and give him a box of ohagi as part of a club activity. They also interrogate him about where he went to eat, and menacingly ask what he talked to "the old man" about. One of the ohagi contains a needle, convincing Keiichi that Rena and Mion are trying to kill him.

Later, Keiichi finds himself being followed by Rena and demands to know who caused all the murders and disappearances; Rena simply replies that it is all the work of Oyashiro. Escaping from Rena, Keiichi finds himself being chased by a mysterious group of men, who knock him out. When he awakens, he is subdued by Rena and Mion, who attempt to inject him with a syringe. In self-defense, Keiichi beats Rena and Mion to death with Satoshi's bat and flees. He calls Ōishi from a phonebooth and tells him the murders were caused by Oyashiro that the murderer is not human as he previously thought. At that point Keiichi, who was sure that Oyashiro was behind him, clawed out his own throat. The next day, Keiichi is found dead and the police also find the bodies of Mion and Rena, and they find out that Keiichi was the one who killed them.

She takes him to the underground caverns of the Sonozaki estate where Shion is being held in one of the prison cells. As Keiichi tries to comfort a distraught Shion, Mion knocks him out with a rock from behind. Mion says that the demon inside her has taken over, but Keiichi states that the Mion in his heart will never change. He says that if she must torture him, at least let Shion go, and implores Mion to fight her inner demon. She remarks that both requests are impossible, but she decides to let Keiichi go.

Realizing that he forgot to pack his bathing suit while rushing to meet his friends at the pool, Keiichi borrows a pair of trunks from Mion's uncle, who claims that these trunks have the magical ability to make women attracted to whoever writes their name on them and wears them for three hours.

Not wanting Keiichi to become a narcissistic jerk, the girls try to talk him out of taking the trunks off, though Keiichi thinks it's a trick so they can force him to wear an embarrassing pair of trunks they provided. Knowing Keiichi won't go down without a fight, the girls rally everyone at the pool to chase him down and retrieve the trunks by force, even going as far as turning Keiichi's only supporters (Tomitake, Ōishi, and Irie) against each other and fight over wearing the trunks for themselves.

Satoko receives a phone call summoning all members of The Club. When they meet, Rika's depression is obvious, and Mion offers to cheer her up by allowing her to choose the game. Rika choses hide-and-seek where the rest try to find her before nightfall. She goes to the Saiguden where she searches for the sword. Meanwhile, the rest try and fail to find her. As day becomes night, they decided to continue to search for her even though they lost since she is their friend.

To her initial hysterical disappointment, Rika does not find the sword in the statue of Oyashiro-sama as promised. She does find a shard which she decides she can use to cut her throat. Before she does, she hears her friends calling to her from outside. Rika holds up her hand, spreads her fingers, and decides to try five more lives.

Keiichi reacts stunned during a meeting of The Club when Mion proposes him as host of the Watanagashi Festival's auction. Convinced by the flattery of the rest, Keiichi accompanies them to the Da Vinci game store run by Mion's uncle Yoshiro. She promptly cajoles him into donating to the auction. They notice a mahjong game, and Yoshiro explains that someone set it up to demonstrate a complex trick. Satoko tries to perform it, but she fails. Ōishi arrives and is revealed to be the person Yoshiro mentioned. With him comes, to Rika's delight, Akasaka Mamoru, who returned as he promised to help her. He even agrees to risk upsetting his wife by staying in Hinamizawa through the Watanagashi Festival rather than stay with her at a spring. This, of course, means Rika has her final piece in place, and . . .

. . . the scene cuts to her home where Akasaka has stabbed her repeatedly while scratching out his neck! He pours gasoline everywhere and sets fire to the home. Before she dies, Rika looks up at her bloody hand, curls down her index finger and snaps . . .

. . . only to find herself wounded with Akane dispatching members of her own family to destroy the "demon blood." Before being beheaded, Rika folds two fingers and snaps . . .

. . . to find herself dragged to Onigafuchi Swamp by Kimiyoshi Kiichirō who happily proposes to sacrifice her to appease Oyashiro-sama. As she sinks into the swamp. Rika folds three fingers and snaps . . .

. . . and she stares in resigned disbelief in Angel Mort as Keiichi has dispatched various waitresses, customers, then Rena with a baseball bat. Rika laments that she wishes she could return to her dormatory at St. Lucia Academy. She convinces Keiichi to bash her head in and eat her brain to cure him of the parasites that ravage him. After he does so, there is heard a finger snap.

On Sunday, June 12, 1983, Rika wakes up to find Satoko looking down at her. Satoko explains that Rika has had bad dreams and a fever, and she promises to stay with her. To Rika's horror, she discovers that Satoko is performing the Watanagashi upon her. Satoko explains that Oyashiro-sama has made her his new miko and cursed Rika for attempting to leave Hinamizawa. After a finger snap, Rika has a conversation with herself as a young teen and child regarding her status in Hinamizawa. While it is her cage which she wished to leave, it also contains her friends. After a series of flashbacks of both fun and death, Rika declares that she loves Hinamizawa.

Rika experiences a happy sequence of events, which include Keiichi and Rena never consumed by paranoia, and Teppei never returning, that culminates in the Watanagashi Festival. She sees Jirō skulking away after her dance. She follows then stops him stating that she wishes to talk to him. Takano appears to celebrate the coincidence since she would like to speak with her.

February 4, 2021
The Prologue consists a flashback to End of Matsuribayashi-hen or a similar time fragment with more detail and some subtle differences. Then Satoko removes a page from the calendar that reveals it is June 8, 1984. Her hair is longer, and she and Rika wear "sailor" uniforms which are hand-me-downs from Mion. Rika is tired, and Satoko remarks on the fact that she has been spending late nights doing something. Rika refuses to reveal what it is since she is scared that Satoko will laugh at her.

At school, Keiichi is now the class representative. Mion attends high school in Okinomiya, and the rest have lost touch with her. Keiichi and Rena run The Club which now includes more students but forbids traps and cheating. Satoko finds this frustrating. Rika leaves early with the excuse that she has to practice her dance. Satoko follows her and suspects that Rika just finds the games boring, and Rika allows her to believe that. Both note the changes in the village, with Satoko admitting that she is a bit sad to see some of the changes.

At the Irie Clinic, Irie reveals that Satoko is cured of the Hinamizawa Syndrome; a surprising result confirmed by repeat testing. Irie reports similar improvements in other villages that started a year ago. Rika meets with the other two heads of the Great Families to ask a favor. It is unseen, but Kimiyoshi quickly agrees, but Ōryo remains stubborn, implying that they may do what they will but she will not change. Nevertheless, at the end of her dance, both appear with her on stage and Ōryo does agree that the Dam War is over and all of the scars must heal. Satoko blushes at this.

Walking home from school Rika ask Satoko if she will go shopping with her in Okinomiya. Satoko excitedly asks if there are special sales; however, to her surprise, Rika takes her to a bookstore. She takes Satoko to the section containing entrance examination preparation guides. She pulls out one for St. Lucia and hands it to Satoko. She confesses it has been her dream for a very long time to leave Hinamizawa and attend St. Lucia's. She adds that she wants to make that dream come true with Satoko.

Satoko appears stunned and emits a shocked, "Eh?!"

Rika explains her dream to leave Hinamizawa and attend St. Lucia Academy to Satoko, a dream she hopes to share with her. After much reluctance, Satoko relents, but she suspects that Rika will eventually tire of the study. In school, Rika explains to Keiichi, Rena, and Mion that Irie will pay for her and Satoko to attend. They agree to help them study. Later, that night Satoko discovers Rika studying at 2 A.M. Satoko gently scolds her for doing so without her.

A Happy, Happy, Joy, Joy Montage follows with the two singing as they study over the ensuing years.

The calendar reads "Monday, March 1, 1987": the day of the results of the entrance exam. Rika quickly finds that her exam number listed; Satoko requires a dramatic moment of uncertainty before she finds her number.

The young teenaged Rika and Satoko enter the academy. Rika is enthralled by the Academy, particularly the formalities; Satoko finds it stuffy, false, and boring. This carries over to their studies with Rika becoming a favorite of the other girls, while Satoko is forced to spend her afternoons in remedial study.

As the higurashi cry, Satoko observes from outside Rika in a salon with her new friends doting over her. "Hey, Rika (ねー梨花・nē Rika)," she asks out loud as she watches Rika happily chat, "do you remember what you said to me? You said you wanted to experience this life together with me."

Her left eyebrow twitches.

In June 1987, Rika enters the main hall at St. Lucia's followed by friends and admired by all. Satoko confronts Rika and asks her to dispense with her façade. Rika demands that she be silent and learn to act properly. After Satoko walks away, Rika does defend her as having saved her life hundreds of times.

Very late that night, Satoko stops her sole studying and returns to the main hall. As if talking to Rika, she admits she understands why a girl who grew up in the countryside became entranced by all of the sophisticated trappings. She rationalizes that if Rika is reminded of the fun they had in Hinamizawa, she will return to the rika she knows.

The next morning, in the hall, Satoko snaps her fingers and the chandelier releases cooking pots on Rika and her trio of admirers, but one of them becomes injured to Satoko's shock and regret. The Teacher confronts her with the fact that one of the girls informed her of Satoko's history with traps, and there is security footage. She locks her in a detention room and advises her to reflect on her actions and study so she may return to class sooner. Crying with a flashback to Rika asking her join her dream, Satoko wails why she did not respond, "no." She begs to go back to the that time.

After her release, Satoko is informed that she will be moved to the Special Class. The Teacher encourages her to work to regain her place in the Regular Class. Satoko returns to her room to find a formal letter from Mion that invites her to return to Hinamizawa for a day with The Club.

Rika and Satoko are picked up by the now college-aged Mion. She attends the same university as Keiichi and Rena.

The members meet and play numerous games. Keiichi wins numerous games forcing the girls to suffer various penalties until, ultimately, he loses and must submit to all of the penalties. At the end, Mion invites them to have dinner at Angel Mort where her sister is. Satoko asks if she can walk a bit on her own. Mion tells her when she is done she will come and pick her up. As she walks, she learns that things are changing: they are tearing down the school, and the home she shared with Rika collapsed. She turns to the Saiguden whose doors are cracked open, and she smiles as she wonders if Oyashiro-sama has forgiven her. She hears a ringing and the air between her and the doors pulse. When she enters she sees the statue is different. When she touches the statue to see if the sound is coming from it, it starts to crack. A horn falls, and when Satoko touches it, it emits a bright light that engulfs her. She finds herself in the Realm of Time Fragments where a woman stands in front of her. The woman smiles as she observes that it has been a long time since they men, "child of man."

The woman repeats her greeting to the confused Satoko and calls her by various names. Satoko does not understand, and the woman does not explain. The woman finally suggests that Satoko will achieve her dream by looping through time, though it will take a very long time. While credulous, Satoko demands that she grant her that ability. The woman explains that all Satoko has to do to enter a new loop is to die. Over Satoko's shock the woman explains that, unlike "the cat's ability," Satoko will retain her memories. Over Satoko's protests, the woman adds that there will be a price, but if Satoko's efforts are sufficiently entertaining , that will be enough. Satoko tries to flee, but she is engulfed in the light of a fragment . . .

. . . and awakes in 1983. She stares at her reflection in the mirror, recalls Rika's behavior towards her, and concludes it must all be a nightmare as she cries. Rika appears to console her and confess she changed the calendar even though she knows Satoko likes to do it. She apologizes, and Satoko embraces her crying Rika's name, which leads to Takano embracing Jirō while calling his name at the conclusion of Matsuribayashi-hen. Satoko watches with horror.

On Monday, June 18, 1984, Rika takes Satoko to the bookstore to explain her dream. Satoko tries to laugh it off, but Rika is insistent and resolves to study on her own. Satoko inwardly resolves to simply prevent her from studying.

At school, Satoko convinces Rika to put down her study guide to enjoy "Endless Fractal Baseball." After they enjoy the game and walk home, Satoko explains to rika what will happen if she joins Rika in her dream. Rika promises her that will not happen, and Satoko agrees, "one last time," to trust her . . .

. . . which naturally means Satoko finds herself in the same situation as she was at St. Lucia's. She confronts Rika in the main hall. Rika insists that it is Satoko who put herself below her. Satoko embraces Rika as she regrets that this was not the response she wanted. "So, let's begin!" she says into Rika's ear. She then vows that, next time, she will not let Rika deceive her. This shocks Rika. When she tries to ask Satoko what she means, Satoko interrupts to offer the traditional St. Lucia greeting to "my traitorous Rika." She raises her left hand, snaps her fingers, and the chandelier falls upon them.

Eua watches Satoko's murder-suicide by chandelier. At the bookstore, Satoko refuses to share Rika's dream. To Rika's protests that they will remain best friends at St. Lucia's, Satoko screams back that they she is lying. She demands that she choose between her and her "fancy school." Rika cannot. Satoko stands on a guard rail, then falls back into the path of a truck as she snaps her fingers. Satoko wakes up on June 16, 1984. She drags Rika to a forest at sunrise to show her Hinamizawa. Rika excitedly starts to explain her dream which leads to Satoko cutting her own throat with a finger snap.

At school, Satoko tries to prevent Rika from studying from her preparation book. Thwarted, she drives a pencil into her own throat with a finger snap.

At the water wheel, the two argue, then fight, then they both fall into the irrigation stream. Satoko wakes holding her head in the Realm of Time Fragments declaring Rika "stupid." Eua, who had delightfully watched all of this, explains that Rika lived through endless years which has only strengthened her resolve to leave Hinamizawa. In response to Satoko's confusion, she invites Satoko to experience it in one of the fragments, and she relives Keiichi killing Mion and Shion with her brother's bat. Satoko suggests that she needs more education to understand Rika, and she resolves to experience all of Rika's past lives. When Eua warns her that it will take a hundred years, Satoko responds that that is not a problem.

After a montage of such lives, Satoko concludes that she must break Rika's will again. To do this, she asks that she and Rika share the same fragments, then asks if Rika remembers her lives. Eua explains that the "horn" that granted Rika the power to loop was "damaged" which prevents Rika from remembering the events just prior to her deaths. Satoko declares that she will not let Rika win, since her love for her is so great.

On June 12, 1983, the gang gather at Mion's uncle's gaming store for the game tournament. With finger snaps indicating new lives, Satoko wins the memorization card game to the admiration of the rest. Back in the Realm of Time Fragments, Eua compliments her for being more resourceful than Rika. Satoko replies that Rika merely hopes the dice will land in her favor; she takes action. Satoko asks for her name, but Eua refuses to reveal it to her. She invites her to give her one, then takes Satoko's confused stammering to create "Eua." With flashbacks, Satoko asks about how other characters can remember events from other lives. Eua explains that looping causes small changes that accumulate over time.

Teppei experiences "bad dreams." In one he is discovered dead in his apartment, while in the other a gang beats and murders him in his apartment. This leads him to wonder what he is doing with his life. He goes to a pachinko parlor, and watches a father with his very happy young daughter. He then sits alone in a park. Finally, he decides to travel to Hinamizawa. He encounters Satoko, who stares back at him stunned. He offers her some treats he obtained in exchange for his winnings and asks if he should win more, if he can see her again. That night, it is Satoko who remains awake staring out of her window as she looks at the box of treats Teppei gave her.

On July 4th Satoko finds herself blocked by a group of delinquents. They threaten her, but Teppei appears to defend her. At the police station, he is surprised to learn that Satoko vouched for him. When he sees her outside, he admits that he has been having bad dreams where he relives his "shitty life" over and over. He promises to never hit her again, but when he holds out his hand, Satoko experiences a flashback of him beating her. He apologizes. As he walks away he notes that should they encounter one another again, he hopes they can have another nice chat. Satoko stares at him as he leaves, then looks at her shaking hand.

In the Realm of Time Fragments, Satoko admits she did not expect the change in her uncle. Eua reminds her that memories will accumulate over loops. When she asks if this will prove a difficulty, Satoko explains that she needs to deal with one particular bird in a cage.

Takano experiences a flashback to a Matsuribayashi-hen world where Okonogi reveals to her that it is Nomura who has ordered her suicide. She places his gun in her mouth, screams, fires, and wakes up at her desk. Her phone rings and Nomura informs her that their plans have reached their final stages. When Takano appears reticent, Nomura reminds her how her grandfather will be seen as a laughing stock. Takano experiences a flashback to the rejection of his thesis. Her point being made, Nomura reminds her that it is critical that she inject Tomitake with H173.

Takano retrieves a briefcase that contains a picture album. She looks at some of the pictures of her as a child with Hifumi and starts to cry. She then notices a letter addressed to her. Meanwhile, Rika accompanies Satoko on the way to the clinic, with Satoko complaining about having to have an exam on her day off. Rika plays this off as well as deflecting Satoko's question regarding what is the medication she must take. Satoko mutters to herself, "You're such a liar." In the exam room, Takano compliments Satoko's test results and suggests that she may be able to cease her medication. She then reveals that she may quite her job. She flashes back to reading the letter that was written by Hifumi to her when he was suffering from dementia. He declares how proud he is of her pursuing his studies, but he does ask if it prevented her from enjoying a wonder life, and if it did, his joy would turn to sorrow. Back in the present, Takano confesses to Satoko that some are using her.

At the night of the Watanagashi Festival, Satoko sneaks away to observe Takano talk to Jirō at the Saiguden. The next day, the Banken have arrived to secure the area, and the scene shifts to the Realm of Time Fragments where Eua remarks on the end of Rika's cycle of tragedies, and Satoko responds by promising to unleash a new cycle. The scene shifts to Takano in the clinic leaving Jirō to get his "prophylactic" shot. She decides against it, but Satoko follows her and, when Takano has left, loops repeatedly to crack the combination to her briefcase.

She leaves the clinic with a box that contains a syringe and ampule of H173. Back in the Realm of Time Fragments, Eau notes that Satoko now controls whether or not a tragedy strikes and asks her if she will not feel guilt. Satoko denies that she will, as she dismisses the existence of worlds she leaves. She calls out to Rika madly that they will live together in a perfect world as a fragment shows them together as children.
