I don't imply they are gaijin haters. But I can understand if they prefer a setting more familiar to them rather than something unfamiliar.
In my own opinion Higurashi had considerably less relationship stuff. Then again these are just lolopinions and it's pointless to argue over that.

Most of the negative comments talk about things being boring, poor pacing, and just not living up to the expectations left by Higurashi.

The tone of the comments start to change at ep3, which most seem to have found a significant improvement. Ep4 suffers from the long "Ange's past" bit, but overall retains positive reviews.
