* '''When They Cry 2: [[Higurashi no Naku Koro ni]] Kai''' (''When The Cicadas Cry: Solutions''). A direct continuation of the previous, which answers the many questions raised by it. Although some of these arcs appear in the first season of [[The Anime of the Game]], they are considered part of ''Kai'' in the games themselves. Keiichi is replaced by Rika as the main character, but as with ''Himatsubushi-hen'', some arcs are told by other characters.
** ''Tsukiotoshi-hen'' ("Exorcism chapter"). A PS2-exclusive arc that resembles ''Tatarigoroshi-hen'' in that Satoko's uncle Teppei is the main threat. Keiichi still takes matters into his own hands, but this time, he is accompanied by Shion and Rena, and all of them start to hallucinate afterward.
** ''Meakashi-hen'' ("Eye Opening chapter"). The "Shion arc". Shion relates her life story and why she is the way she is, culminating in a retelling of what really happened during ''Watanagashi-hen'' (although note that while this arc serves as a POV Sequel to ''Watanagashi-hen'', they are technically different--justdifferent—just nearly identical--timelinesidentical—timelines).
*** ''Utsutsukowashi-hen'' ("Reality Breaking chapter"). A manga-only chapter, and a prequel to ''Meakashi-hen''. When Shion is sent Off to boarding school, she investigates the murder of a teacher. Cancelled.
** ''Tsumihoroboshi-hen'' ("Atonement chapter"). The "Rena arc". Rena becomes incredibly paranoid and feels forced to kill, threaten and hide away in order to save the people she loves, but for the first time, others are able to get through to the victim of paranoia. This also reveals the truth about the events of ''Onikakushi-hen''. This arc acts as the end of the first season of the anime.
*** "Reunion". An anime-only episode, set years after ''Tsumihoroboshi-hen''. This raises many new theories about the Hinamizawa Disaster, only one of which is correct.
*** ''Yoigoshi-hen'' ("Overnight chapter"). A manga-only Alternate Universe to ''Tsumihoroboshi-hen''. Twenty-three years later, a new group--includinggroup—including a woman claiming to be Mion Sonozaki--meetsSonozaki—meets in Hinamizawa. This Chapter is appears in a third Higurashi DS-port game, with a new character added.
*** ''Tokihogushi-hen'' ("Untangling Chapter"). A DS-Port Prequel chapter that involves with Tomoe Minai in a case of Rena Ryugu 1982, one year prior to the event of the story.
** ''Yakusamashi-hen'' ("Disaster Awakening chapter"). An anime-only arc personally requested by the game's creator to fill in the plot holes left by the first season. Along with new character Hanyu, Rika hints at her true nature and why she is at the center of the mystery, and Satoko attempts to solve it on her own.
** ''Minagoroshi-hen'' ("Massacre chapter"). The "Rika Arc". Rika and Keiichi band together with the rest of the club, all having realized everything about the time loop and what they had done in the past. They do their best to get past the one hurdle that Rika has deemed impossible to beat--Satokobeat—Satoko's abusive uncle Teppei--butTeppei—but are stopped by the real murderer, who is revealed after having been hiding all this time.
** ''Matsuribayashi-hen'' ("Festival Music chapter"). The "Hanyu Arc". The real murderer's heartbreaking motivations are revealed. The club, plus Hanyu, the police and other adults of authority, mobilizes to save Hinamizawa once and for all.
** ''Miotsukushi-hen'' ("Canal Drying chapter"). A PS2-exclusive Alternate Universe ending arc in which Rika and Keiichi stand alone instead of with the others, as the Hate Plague goes into overdrive and the events of ''Watanagashi-hen'', ''Tatarigoroshi-hen'' and ''Tsumihoroboshi-hen'' hit them all at once. Several deviations occur from the ''Matsuribayashi-hen'' ending.
