Ryushiki07 is a play writer and visual novels are quite an excellent way of presenting dramas in modern times.

Cutting out all the elements of the sound novel itself to just a play script is essentially gutting the game and removing many things that makes the series great. It would disturb the Six Aristotelian elements of drama. I quite enjoyed the pacing, pauses, sound effects, music, visual effects, and character expressions of the series. I loved the grin that pops out when talking to Shion on the phone.

Higurashi is also uniquely "otaku" and cutting out the non-serious parts would be removing Ryukishi07's personal touch and charm to the story. He's done 2D-related stories and jobs his whole life, he shouldn't change things just to appeal to a wider mainstream audience. Professional critics would balk at the series anyway, especially at the Hinamizawa Syndrome.

no but i had a rika dream a few days ago. at one point her bare thigh was lightly touching the side of my bare chest. we weren't the only ones in the room though, so, nothing further of note happened. it made me happy that at least i had been that close to her, but it also annoyed me because whenever i have lolis in my dreams nothing much ever happens.
