== Trivia ==
*Rika Furude is strongly connected to [[Frederica Bernkastel]], the mysterious writer of each poem opening ''Higurashi no Naku Koro ni''.
**Frederica and Rika Furude share a similar appearance and name.
**Both Frederica and Rika Furude are voiced by [[Wikipedia:Yukari Tamura|Yukari Tamura]].
**The name "Frederica" is derived from "Furude Rika".
**There is a theory stating that Frederica was born from Rika's despair and hopelessness following {{tsumihoroboshi}} (The evidence for this being a quote from Frederica during this chapter: "Eventually, she started giving up, and lost interest in those worlds. That's how I was born..."). This theory has been partially confirmed by [[Ryukishi07]].<ref>{{cite web|title=ACen 2015 07th Expansion Panel #3: Ryukishi07’s Latest Work TRianThology Unraveled for the First Time|website=Wordpress|url=https://seaoffragments.wordpress.com/2015/05/17/acen-2015-07th-expansion-panel-3-ryukishi07s-latest-work-trianthology-unraveled-for-the-first-time/|archive-url=https://archive.fo/mOKum|archive-date=18 August 2016}}</ref> However, this took place during a Q&A session whose transcription leaves it ambiguous as to whether Ryukishi07 is referring to Frederica Bernkastel or the witch [[Bernkastel]]. Furthermore, the Official Character Guide to ''Higurashi no Naku Koro ni'' explicitly claims that Frederica Bernkastel and Rika Furude are completely different.
*Rika's appearance and name bear great similarities to [[Erika Furudo]] from {{umineko}}.
*It is implied in {{meakashi}} that Rika has yet to have her first period.
