About the Anime: (by Wikipedia)
The main character, Keiichi Maebara, moves to Hinamizawa and befriends his new classmates Rena Ryugu, Mion Sonozaki, Rika Furude, and Satoko Houjou. Keiichi joins their after-school club activities, which consist mostly of card and board games (and punishment games for the loser – usually him). Hinamizawa appears to be a normal, peaceful, rural village to Keiichi. However, the tranquility abruptly ends after the annual Watanagashi Festival, a celebration to commemorate and give thanks to the local god, Oyashiro. Keiichi learns that every year for the past four years, one person has been murdered, and another has gone missing on the evening of the Watanagashi Festival. Keiichi himself soon becomes drawn into the strange events surrounding the Watanagashi Festival and Oyashiro.
My Review: I haven't got to watch it all, but I will review what I have.
So far the show is pretty good and the plot is pretty clear, yet it seems to be very slow paced - yet I assume it will get a lot more paced soon enough.
It's really enjoyable so far and I'm looking forward to the rest.
Rating: 8/10
