Is the new “Higurashi” something more than a reboot?

Amazon Prime Japan’s listing for the new “Higurashi” anime had titled episode one as “鬼騙し編”, or “Onidamashi-hen” (meaning “Deceived by Demons”), rather than “鬼隠し編” (“Onikakushi-hen”), which hints to the possibility of this new series being more than just a reboot/remake.

Earlier in the day, the characters were removed from both the title ひぐらしのなく頃に業 (“Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Gou”), and the episode, as per a mistake on Amazon’s part. Ano, @in_earthbound on Twitter, has posted the screenshots before said wipe.

Furthermore, in this interview with Ryukishi and series director Kawaguchi from October 4th, Ryukishi had been hyping up this next episode, with “you’ll start to see what the new Higurashi: When They Cry is all about.”

“We’d been casually talking about how great it’d be to see a remake of the anime, and I’d mentioned if that ever became a reality, I’d totally write another script for it immediately. And what I ended up with looked like a phone book,” Ryukishi says, back when the team wasn’t sure if their wishes would come to be.

“With episode one, this is a new Higurashi: When They Cry done with a new staff with a new world view, so I hope you enjoyed that. But starting with episode two, you’ll start to see the little things here and there that I mentioned before. So I hope you all, er... I really can’t say anything right now,” as he laughs with frustration, continuing with “things are finally going to start moving with the next episode, so I hope you watch carefully from episode two on.”

Episode two premieres on the same channels/services from last week. Don’t miss it!

Not too long ago, the Tamil TV news landscape was a mockery of journalism, with channels like Sun TV and Jaya TV being just party mouthpieces. Puthiya Thalaimurai, and the many other channels which followed, changed that by putting the viewer first and giving them better journalism. The journalist ecosystem in Tamil Nadu, which once had heavy Brahmin dominance - and still does in many ways - has seen more diversity in the last few years, and that is thanks to the politics of social justice espoused by Tamil journalists who are under attack now, and their peers. Even so, there is valid criticism against Tamil TV journalism, like any other media ecosystem. There are pressures of TRP, self-censoring, authoritarian team leaders, interfering owners, and personal agendas. But what’s being attempted now is a hostile takeover of the Tamil TV media so a right-wing lobby can control the entire ecosystem, and that can be considerably worse than anything the Tamil TV media has ever seen, as evidenced by what we see on English and Hindi news channels today.
