In the summer of 1983, Keiichi Maebara and his family leave the noisy city for the tranquil town of Hinamizawa. There, he befriends Satoko Houjou, Rika Furude, Rena Ryuuguu, and Mion Sonozaki, who become his loyal group of friends. As they spend their days enjoying carefree fun, Keiichi gradually realizes that things in Hinamizawa are not what they seem. While attending the Cotton Drifting Festival, Keiichi discovers that the town has been plagued by murders and disappearances in the aftermath of the celebration. The locals attribute it to the "Oyashiro's Curse," which claims that anyone who angers the town's patron god will be cursed with death or disappearance. Initially, Keiichi dismisses it as a scary myth aimed at disciplining naughty children. However, when his friends refuse to speak about the strange occurrences in the village and a murder and disappearance happen after the festival, Keiichi starts to suspect his new friends' involvement in the gruesome events. He fears he may be the next victim of the mysterious vindictive force.
Maebara Keiichi enjoys his days in school, playing games with his local friends, after moving to the peaceful town of Hinamizawa. However, the tranquil environment turns out to be a facade when Keiichi discovers news of a murder that occurred in the town. From that point on, Keiichi's life takes a gruesome turn as he realizes his close friends may not be who they seem to be. The story, based on the amateur mystery game by 7th Expansion, is told through various scenarios. Tsumihoroboshi is the sixth manga in a series that explores different scenarios in the Higurashi games, and the second one that attempts to answer past puzzling questions. Focusing on Ryuuguu Rena's sudden distrust of her friends, the story answers some lingering questions revolving around Furude Rika's mysterious death.
A year ago, Natsumi Kimiyoshi and her family left the mountain settlement of Okinomiya, which was haunted by the local folklore of Oyashiro's curse that befalls those who leave Okinomiya or the adjacent hamlet of Hinamizawa. To their surprise, their life remained calm and peaceful until gas erupted from the swamp beside Hinamizawa, causing numerous deaths. Unfortunately, Natsumi was unaware that the catastrophic "Great Hinamizawa Disaster" would soon lead to many terrifying misfortunes. After the incident, Natsumi's grandmother, who had previously lived in Hinamizawa, began exhibiting extremely suspicious behavior. She believed that Oyashiro's curse was imminent and tried to quell it by placing talismans all over their home and killing puppies. These terrifying and erratic actions caused Natsumi and her family to fear for their safety, leading her mother to commit an unspeakable act.
After breaking the chains of fate and achieving the ultimate world, Rika Furude and her comrades can finally enjoy ordinary lives in Hinamizawa's mountain village. Rika believes her hardships and heartaches are over until she is involved in an accident that proves her wrong. Upon waking up, Rika realizes she's in a different world than the one she knows. This new reality contrasts her original world, with her once loyal friend Satoko Houjou becoming cold towards her, her longtime friend Keiichi Maebara never moving to Hinamizawa, and her parents still alive. Though this world may not be perfect, it still appeals to Rika, leaving her with a tough decision: stay in this new world or return to the world that she struggled to improve.
Despite being a newcomer to Hinamizawa, Keiichi Maebara has already bonded with a tightknit group of friends that includes Satoko Houjou, Rika Furude, Mion Sonozaki, and Rena Ryuuguu. Their after-school club is a happy haven of games and laughter, yet behind the smiles lie hidden sorrows and painful secrets. Curiously, these unsettling events seem eerily familiar. As one astute observer watches in anticipation, they are determined to intervene and avert the tragic outcome they foresee. As preparations for the annual Cotton Drifting Festival gather momentum, a sense of unease gnaws at them. It becomes increasingly apparent that someone within their ranks is manipulating events to ensure a disaster unfolds.
Moving to peaceful Hinamizawa, Keiichi Maebara spends his days happily going to school and playing games with his friends until news of a vicious murder in town disrupts his contentment. As he delves deeper into the mystery, he uncovers unsettling truths about those closest to him. The story draws inspiration from 7th Expansion's amateur mystery game and is told through various scenarios. Himatsubushi, the fourth installment in the Higurashi manga series, explores alternate scenarios of the game. It follows Tokyo police investigator Mamoru Akasaka, who visits Hinamizawa years before the murders occur.
