Rika Furude
Background[]
Rika is the main character in Higurashi no Naku Koro Ni Kai. She is a younger classmate in Keiichi's school, and is the same grade level as Satoko. Naturally, she is great friends with her, as they live together in the same house. She is revered by the villagers as the heir of the local shrine, and plays the role of a miko in the annual Watanagashi Festival. She has been the head of the Furude house since her parents died, but rarely attends the town meetings due to her young age. While she does not speak a lot, she likes to say nonsense words such as "mi~" and "nipa~", which inflame Rena's passion for cute things.
Fighting Style[]
- Rika is a very slow and fragile character, lacking of melee options. However, she is extremely at ease whilst airborne, being a very versatile aerial fighter.
First Weapon: Ceremonial hoe
Second Weapon: Anti-cleaver girl mop
Third Weapon: Scythe from the ritual tools shrine
Additional Notes : When you use Rika's third weapon, the scythe, she will speak in her cynical-about-life, possessed way.
