References in When They Cry: Difference between revisions

*The character [[Okonogi]] is present in both ''Higurashi no Naku Koro ni'', as the leader of the [[Yamainu]], and in ''Umineko no Naku Koro ni'', as president of a company with ties to [[Rudolf Ushiromiya]] and [[Hideyoshi Ushiromiya]].

*[[Frederica Bernkastel]] is known in ''Higurashi no Naku Koro ni'' as the author of the poems that each arc opens with. In ''Umineko no Naku Koro ni'', the character [[Bernkastel]] appears to be the same character. Furthermore, Bernkastel is revealed to be a version of [[Rika Furude]], as seen in their similar appearances and their supernatural abilities. Bernkastel herself references this fact by using Rika's catchphrase "Nipah~" in {{turn}}. In addition to this, there is also a character named [[Erika Furudo]], a character Bernkastel created in her own likeness who bears a similar name and appearance to Rika. The name "Furudo Erika" is phonetically similar to the name "Frederica".

*[[Lambdadelta]], while not referenced in ''Higurashi no Naku Koro ni'', is speculated to be [[Miyo Takano]] due to their similar appearance. Furthermore, Lamdadelta refers to Miyo Takano as "her other self" in the ''[[Hotarubi no Tomoru Koro ni]]'' prologue, ''[[The First and the Last Gift]]''. However, [[Ryukishi07]] has directly refuted this theory and refers to it as a red herring.

*[[Ange Ushiromiya]] and [[Shion Sonozaki]] both attended [[St. Lucia Academy]].
