*The phrase "That is my only wish" in relation to solving a mystery is used frequently throughout the franchise, by [[Keiichi Maebara]], [[Ooishi Kuraudo]], [[Mamoru Akasaka]], [[Rena Ryuuguu]], and [[Maria Ushiromiya]].
*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".
