Line 1: {{work}}{{Heartwarming}} * During the Atonement Arc, the support Rena's friends give her after they find out that Rena {{spoiler\|killed the people who were coning her father out of a substantial amount of money}}. They tell Rena that she could have and should have come to them for help, and they make themselves come to terms with how Rena responded to her situation. Lastly, Rena's friends help her {{spoiler\|hide the bodies.}} Of course, they should have {{spoiler\|reported Rena to the police and made sure she got psychological counseling}}, but they got most everything else right. * In Minagaroshi Rika has finally found out who killed her. In a CMOA she refuses to be drugged so she"ll remember who it is that kills her this time, and as she's being butchered alive the spirits of her friends who died protecting her in this arc surround her and promise to help next time. This troper was in tears watching this. * The end of the last arc, as it is the only arc where {{spoiler\|[[Everybody Lives\|nobody dies]]. It's very rewarding after having sat through many arcs in which people die in pretty horrifying ways.}} ** Rika really puts it in perspective in a way that warms this tropers heart evey time he hears it. {{quote\| '''Rika:''' {{spoiler\|Takano and Hanyuu}}, were you listening to what Mion said? We don't play Old Maid. Just Old Geezer. {{spoiler\|Takano}} laughed it off as being the same but it is a completely different game. After all, if one adds the missing card that is taken out in a game of Old Geezer, it becomes a game without losers.~~<br />~~ '''{{spoiler\|Hanyuu}}:''' Rika?~~<br />~~ '''Rika:''' After adding {{spoiler\|Hanyuu}}, our missing card, the world became a world free of losers. It is the height of folly to purposely take one card out of the game. This world doesn't need a loser. }} * At the very end, when {{spoiler\|Rika finally turns the calendar to July 1.}} The relentless tension of the entire series to this point makes that simple act very satisfying. Line 19: * In Meakashi-hen, although it is an early sign that Shion has Hinamizawa Syndrome, when Shion first hears the extra step and belives that it's Satoshi, after a mental conversation with him saying that he'll stay with her and lend her his strength. I couldn't help but think how heartwarming that was, [[Mood Whiplash\|even after thinking "Oh shit, Shion's going insane"]] * Rena confessing her feelings for Keiichi in the last OVA. Rival shippers may not find it cute, but the scene certainly is both cute and funny (Rika shows her dislike of romance), with all the blushing. * The last episode of ''[[Higurashi no Naku Koro Nini]]'' has {{spoiler\|Rena prepared to kill everyone in the school because she's suffering a delusion about an alien invasion. Keiichi disables the makeshift time bomb she set up and challenges her to a fight (his baseball bat against her billhook), and although she's clearly willing to kill him, [["I Know You ~~Are~~'re in There Somewhere" Fight\|he peppers the duel with friendly banter reminiscent of their water gun fight earlier in the series]]. When she disarms Keiichi and pins him down, he tells Rena to finish him off, and instead she breaks down and cries at the realization of what she's done. He hugs her and tells her everything's going to be okay. It was enough to bring [[Creepy Child]] Rika to tears.}} * There was also, in Minagoroshi-hen, where {{spoiler\|the ghosts of Rika's recently-slaughtered [[Nakama]] try to comfort her as she is being disemboweled by Takano}}. [[User:The Adversary\|This troper]] still [[Tear Jerker\|tears up a little]] every time he remembers it. * The alternate ending, Miotsukushi-hen also has this really sweet scene where Keiichi, in answering an interrogation by Rika, recounts how he gained forgiveness from {{spoiler\|one of the girls he shot at with his model gun}} and then goes further and lets Rika know that he remembers when {{spoiler\|she forgave him for what he did in Onikakushi-hen}}. The scene that ensues brought both Rika and [[User:Clevomon\|this troper]] to tears. * Speaking of Tsumihoroboshi-hen, there's two of these within the same episode: when Keiichi confesses to his [[Nakama]] about the toy gun incident (to which Mion tells him that there's nothing wrong with hiding embarassing parts of your past and Satoko reassures him that he's a great guy with nothing to be ashamed of), and when he apologizes to Mion for {{spoiler\|killing her in Onikakushi-hen, despite her not remembering}}: {{quote\| '''Keiichi:''' "I will never distrust you, no... I will never doubt a friend, ever again."}} * There's a part towards the end of Matsuribayashi-hen where the group thinks that {{spoiler\|Shion}} has been killed {{spoiler\|(she hasn't)}}, and Satoko calls her her "Nee-Nee", admitting that she thought of her as a surrogate sister, which causes Mion to embrace her and break down. The effect is enhanced by the knowledge that in Watanagashi-hen and Meakashi-hen, {{spoiler\|Shion killed Satoko in a particularly bloody and sadistic way}}. * I'm only putting this here because there's no "Crowning Moment of Cute" page: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ycwByy67HDc Akasaka first meets Rika]. "Nipaa~" [[Cuteness Proximity\|SHO KYUUT!!]] Line 33: {{reflist}} ~~[[Category:Useful Notes/Anime and Manga/Heartwarming]]~~ [[Category:Higurashi Nono Naku Koro Nini]] [[Category:Heartwarming]]
