Higurashi When They Cry: Demon Exposing Arc

It's been almost a year since Natsumi and her family moved from the town of Onigafuchi. Her grandmother, a native of Hinamizawa village, fears that they will be cursed for abandoning the mountains, but Natsumi has never been happier, making new friends and enjoying school life. When a terrible gas explosion in Hinamizawa wipes out everyone in the village, her grandmother is convinced it is the wrath of the village god, Oyashiro-sama. Natsumi's family has never taken Grandmother's beliefs seriously, but her devotion to Oyashiro-sama has taken a frightening turn. Have the old woman's fanatical convictions gone too far?

Though one of the side stories this particular manga is one of my favourites in the Higurashi series. It's short and the characters are just as messed up as the main story (though I feel this one is comparatively more understated, working to its advantage). Anybody who's enjoyed any of the instalments from the franchise should definitely give it a go!
