>I think he is married
Is he? Huh.

I don't know if Ryukishi is a lolicon but he absolutely has a maid fetish. Or at least he's well versed in basically every fetish possible. When you're in the otaku market, I guess you need to know it to get as wide rage. His rape fetishes are top tier. He knows his shit.

He's also great at fujo fetishes. He pleases both sexes equally. I'll never understand why girls like yaoi but holy shit are they insane for that shit, and Ryukishi really caters to that.

Reminds me of that /sp/ image ''we're talking about sports, right guys'' with a totalitarian background.
Umineko has egalitarian and feminist themes? Can't talk about that shit and its relation to humanity as a whole, this is Umineko ONLY.

Everything except maybe the OP was fucking great. The OP is a bit forced but meh. Plus it was produced by Ryukishi (the ED too, as well as the music) which is probably why DEEN accepted to make Kira, since Ryukishi paid a decent chunk of it.

Ep 1 was hilariously fanservice-y but in a good way. A lot of people complained that watching Rika wash the window made them completely uncomfortable and I understand since I also felt like shit. Watching a character you like being sexualized like that felt weird but whatever.
The greatness of ep 1 is that it shows complete fanservice then, in the typical Ryukishi fashion, he offers fanservice to the women as well by the girls going full fudoshi.

Ep 2 was a great parody of mahou shoujo, like you said but the genius is that Ryukishi knew that Rika has the same voice as Nahona and used that as a joke. And Satoko's seyiuu used to be in Sailor moon which is also funny. The fact that their special attack is 07th Explosion is always funny. I just wish there was a mahojou series of that, I'd watch it.
Ep 3 might have been forced, like you say, but it does answer the question as to why K1 doesn't go for his harem. I found it hilarous, especially Rika and Satoko just not giving a shit and making everyone uncomfortable just to fuck with everyone.
Ep 4 was cute as fuck and possibly the best way to end Higurashi on. The contrast between pure Rika and older Rika was hearthbreaking for me and cute at the same time.

What's great about Kira is that the anime of Higurashi is mostly meh to shit. DEEN missed out on a lot of what made Higurashi good. They removed too much but this time around, they got everything right. If you only watch Kira after reading Higurashi, you'd swear it was simply extended stories intended for the VN. A great example is Chie-sensei. She barely gets any focus on her curry obsession in the original anime. She gets some focus in Rei but it's completely joked upon in Kira. A person watching the anime wouldn't have cared or noticed but a person who read the VN would laugh at it.

The anime should be avoided but Rei and Kira are must watches for anyone who loved Higurashi.
