Third Higurashi Anime Series to be OVA

Japanese anime store Animate revealed last December that a third Higurashi no Naku Koro ni anime television series would be produced. The Moon Phase Diary now reports that the third series, tentatively titled “Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Rei,” will be produced for home video release instead of television broadcast. The new series is tentatively scheduled for release later this year.
