The VN is great. I still need to play Umineko, which I believe is regarded to be even better.

Enjoy the third chapter, it was my personal favorite.

i read it years ago, its a top tier VN IMO
Umineko is also great, it's more memorable and has higher highs but drags on a bit more

Loved the original anime when I was in middle school due to the dark horror theme. Enjoyed the new anime they made a couple years back too, it's a weird sort of sequel with a tie-in to Umineko and other works by Ryukishi07.

Personally can't wait for Silent Hill F since Ryukishi07 is the Writer.

No experience with Higurashi, but Umineko was a stellar read. Even the parts generally regarded as drags, I was enthralled with.

Umineko probably has one of my favourite openings of any anime. The anime itself is alright, nothing to brag about.

I've seen the anime and read the VNs. The anime is a bad adaptation of a great story and there's really no reason to watch it now that the visual novels are fully translated and easily available in English.

Great story with great characters. Conclusion is satisfying and makes sense, as long as you stop at chapter 8. Don't read or watch anything else after that. Especially not Gou and Sotsu which completely shit over the ending.

Chapter 3 is my favourite and has one hell of a ending.

If you're not already, I'd recommend using the 07th mod to get improved sprites and music, as well as the additional console only arcs.

Umineko has a fantastic first half but I felt fumbled the second half and I found myself underwhelmed by the ending. Notoriously has one of the worst anime adaptations of all time.
