As the eerie fantasy When They Cry continues, a second story follows the first, like a variation on a theme. Keiichi Maebara arrives in the tiny village of Hinamizawa and befriends four cute local girls: Mion, Rena, Satoko, and Rika. The murders and disappearances that take place during the annual Cotton Drifting Festival remain at the center of series. But what causes those events: Is it the wrath of Oyashira, the local protector-deity? Is it demonic possession? Or are the deaths the results of all-too-human activities? The girls and detective Oishi present differing accounts of what's going on; Keiichi doesn't know whom or what to believe. After the first story comes to a grisly conclusion, he starts over, knowing no more than he did before. When They Cry is more subtle and unsettling than Ergo Proxy, but it's another example of the "murderous moppet" genre. (Rated 16 and older: violence, tobacco use, grotesque imagery) --Charles Solomon
