A new movie trailer has been released from Phantom Film for the upcoming Higurashi movie due for theaters this summer, which you can watch below (coming soon) or at Phantom Film official site. It is more in-depth than the previous teaser that was released and I've developed more positive feelings towards the movie so far. Phantom has also released a promotional poster (chirashi) for the movie as well, which you can see to your right. (And in case of inquiry, the text on the paper is Keiichi's hidden 'suspicion letter' he placed behind the clock.)
It has been decided that Higurashi will be released for the Nintendo DS! A quote from the official site as follows:
"The original software is very popular. With manga, anime, novels, live-action movies and other various media. The PS2 version has accumulated more than 20 million copies sold, that it was just a matter of time Higurashi on the DS would finally come. Please enjoy it on the new system and stay tuned!"Title: Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kizuna (first volume) Model: Nintendo DS Players: 1 Price: 3990 yen (or 3800 yen including tax) (approximately US$25) Developer: Alchemist Source(s): [1], [2] Read more...
For those of you who will live in or will be in Japan around the time of it's release, by buying your ticket before or on 3/29/2008 (Saturday) you will be given a gift with your ticket (they are apparently wrongly announced before). You can get either
(1) Higurashi material collection
(2) Injection syringe type mechanical pencil
The last of the character CDs! (for now) The third Higurashi no naku koro ni Kai cd has released, this time Satoshi and Keiichi's CD. Aside from the hilariously disturbing cover, the single is actually really good, and the drama is pretty funny as well. The song titles are YellowsicKING (Satoshi) and 'Cool ni nare!~Keep on our love~' (Keiichi). You can download it below!
The title of Eiko Shimamiya's upcoming album has been confirmed to be Hikari Nadeshiko (ひかりなでしこ). If you would like to purchase it, you can do so at these links: Yesasia - Limt. Edition | Reg.
