Higurashi no Naku Koro ni : The Movie(?!)

Posted by Shin

Not to be confused with the live action porno (don't ask) there will be an actually feature length movie in theaters next year, directed by Oikawa Otaru. With additional information courtesy of Famitsu, all the actors playing the main characters have been announced. As history has shown, game/anime to movie transitions never turn out well, and sure enough, fans have already gathered together to protest against this. Below are the list of the actors and the characters they will be playing as:

Maeda Gouki(16) as Maebara Keiichi

Matsuyama Airi(17) as Ryuugu Rena

Asuka Rin(16) as Sonozaki Mion

Ono Erena(13) as Houjo Satoko

Aika(15) as Furude Rika

What can I say? Well, for one, no matter how the movie turns out to be, I guess the consolation is that the actors here look way better than the ones in the pr0n I guess ^^; Also, how they can compress so much of the story in a 2 hour(at best) movie is beyond me. In any case, this is something to look forward to, regardless of the outcome. Nii~paa. Shin out.
