Higanbana no Saku Yoru ni: Difference between revisions

(update links)
Line 5:
Marie Moriya is a rather timid girl, who is frequently bullied by her classmates. On top of that, Kanamori, her homeroom teacher who initially defended Marie, has begun to molest her at night in the [[Old School Building]]. When some of other students start talking about the seven mysteries of the school and that she may be a [[Youkai]], Marie desperately wishes to become one in order to kill everyone who makes her life a living hell. That wish is about to come true...
 
'''''Higanbana no Saku Yoru ni''''', officially translated as ''"The Unforgiving Flowers Blossom in the Dead of Night"'' (literally translated as ''"On the Night the Red Spider Lily Blooms"'') is a horror manga series, created by the creator of the ''[[When They Cry]]'' series, Ryukishi07, and drawn by Ichirō Tsunohazu (the actual character designs are by Nishieda, though), that started in 2010. It is published in the Monthly Dragon Age magazine from Yen Press, who also published the manga adaption of ''[[Higurashi no Naku Koro ni]]''.
 
Ryukishi07 has adapted the manga as a two-part [[Visual Novel]] series, with each game being released on August 13 and December 31 of 2011, respectively. Unlike ''[[When They Cry]]'', each game is a [[Genre Anthology]] and contains up to seven self-contained short stories. Each of these stories follows a different protagonist, though Marie and her youkai companion Higanbana always show up as the central characters of the series.

* [[Adaptation Distillation]]: The manga goes into detail while showing us the cruel bullying Marie has to put up with, Kanamori's perverted obsession with Marie, and the [[Mind Rape]] Higanbana puts Marie through to strengthen her resolve in becoming a youkai. This is all downplayed in the VN adaptation; Marie and Kanamori's backstories are merely mentioned and hardly shown, and Higanbana's interactions with Marie are much more restrained yet still effectively creepy.
