Higurashi When They Cry Available On iTunes Store

By Ishaan Sahdev July 31, 2010

While MangaGamer publish Higurashi digitally for PC, but did you know that the translated version is also available for the iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad?

Higurashi on iTunes is published by another company — named SEAMS — that use MangaGamer’s translations. Chapter 2, “Wataginishi,” is on sale right now for a special price at $3.99, while chapter 1, “Onikakushi,” is temporarily free.

If you’ve got a compatible iDevice and the PC versions are a bit of an expensive proposition, this sounds like a great alternative, especially considering you could read it in bed.
