Line 22:
** Let's not forget her in Meakashi-hen, {{spoiler|refusing to cry as Shion tortures her to death, claiming that she's realized how much of a burden she was on Satoshi and not wanting to be [[The Load]] anymore}}
* Towards the end of ''Kai'' when everyone works together to outsmart the [[Mooks]] with traps and disguises. Pretty funny really.
** Also, Keiichi's [[Rousing Speech]] that inspired the [[Nakama]] to pull together for said outsmarting. I'd just finished watching ''[[Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann]]'' when I saw that speech, and between the sheer [[Hot -Blooded]] determination to [[Screw Destiny]], and the ethos of overcoming all the negative feelings that might drive them apart, I half-expected Kei-kun to whip out a certain distinctive pair of sunglasses and scream, "GATTAI!"
* Kasai, Shion's bodyguard gets one by pointing a gun at one of the guards and demanding fiercely to open up the door to Satoshi's room and proceeds to smack the guard with the gun.
{{quote| '''Kasai''':Thanks. Here's your reward. *smacks the guard, knocking him out.* }}
Line 36:
* Might be a little dark for some. But episode 23. Rena. One junior-highschool girl with no plan, premeditation, or prep time vs. two hardened criminals. Guess who survives the night unscathed and who winds up in several dozen bags?
** Also a little dark, but an application of [[Fridge Logic]] makes you realize it: In the atonement arc, {{spoiler|despite the fact that Rena has gone crazy from Hinamizawa syndrome and holds the school hostage under the delusion that aliens are responsible for everything, she still manages to remain relatively calm and clear headed when you realize that she is hallucinating and honestly believes that '''an unending number of maggots are pouring out of her skin'''.

* In what turned out to be a [[Chekhov's Gun]] about his future abilities in a comedic scene in the second episode of Kai, Keiichi, (after getting soaked by a [[Bucket Booby Trap]] involving a large water basin) is able to avoid and deflect all of the traps that Satoko, set firmly in [[Bratty Half -Pint]] mode, had spent hours setting up to attack him. He almost gets revenge on her for the prank, but since he is the shows [[Butt Monkey]] he gets hit on the head from behind with the basin by Shion.
* Episode 3 of ''Higurashi Rei'', when Rika strikes back against Satoko. Satoko is a bitch in this world and starts playing keep-away with an important document Rika was reading. Rika cuts her smirk off with a thrown chair to the face that knocks her to the ground. Rika walks over with another chair, starts slamming the curled up, terrified Sakoto (while the other two participants in the bullying watch in horror), and finishes with a deep-voiced lecture along the lines of "Shut up. I'm tired of your annoying voice. I was going easy on you, but if you come near me again I'll beat the shit out of you." ''Immensely'' satisfying.
** Don't forget that she ends her threat with "Nice to meet you."
