Higurashi When They Cry Anime Trailer Teases Hanyu

A new Higurashi When They Cry promotional video has been uploaded, this teasing the inclusion of Hanyu. While Hanyu had made an appearance in the original anime adaptation of Higurashi When They Cry, she hadn’t been introduced until the second season of the anime. [Thanks, Famitsu!]

Near the end of the promotional video, we see her interacting with Rika. The promotional video also includes other scenes from the new Higurashi adaptation. Additionally, the new opening for the anime “I believe what you said” can be heard in the background.
