This week, WESabi! is showing the first arc of a series called "Higurashi no Naku Koro ni", or roughly translated "When the Cicada Cries". It's something of a horror mystery about murders that seem to be related to supernatural powers.
It is the 58th year of Showa and summer is early. It is only June, yet one is able to enjoy the serenade of cicadas at noon and the buzz of higurashi in the evening. Our story takes place in Hinamizawa Village. It is a small village with a population of less than 2,000, a place cursed by Oyashiro-Sama. Every year, during the festival of Watanagashi, one person dies and another disappears. It is a cycle of death which started with a fight over the construction plans for a dam That incident was covered up by the police and has now come back to haunt the village. Is all this due to a plot or a coincidence... or a curse? Is this tragedy inevitable? Is there nothing you can do but accept it?Name: Higurashi no Naku Koro ni, First Arc (4 episodes)
This week, WESabi! is screening the Hellsing OVAs.
Vampires exist. It is the duty of Hellsing, an organization sponsored by the British government, to hide that frightening fact and protect the blissfully unaware populace. Along with its own personal army, Hellsing also has secret weapons. Alucard, an incredibly powerful vampire, has been controlled by Hellsing for years. It is unclear if he dislikes being a servant to the Hellsing family, but he certainly enjoys his job as a vampire exterminator. Seras is a fledgling vampire and a former police woman. Although reluctant to embrace her new self, she is still a valuable member of the organization. Integra Hellsing, the current leader, is usually fully capable of fulfilling her duty, but lately, vampire activity has been on the rise. Unfortunately, the cause is more alarming than anything she could have imagined. A group long thought dead has been plotting in secret since their apparent destruction over 50 years ago. Plotting to plunge England, and perhaps the entire world, into war.Name: Hellsing OVAs
