The series became very popular and was later made into a set of drama CDs; the first, based on the Onikakushi-hen part of the story, was released on May 27, 2005. Later, a manga series adapted from the games began serialization in March 2006 in the Japanese manga magazine Gangan Powered, illustrated by Japanese artist Karin Suzuragi. Following the manga's release, an anime series by the Japanese animation studio Studio Deen aired in Japan weekly, starting on April 4, 2006, and adapted six of the original eight chapters. The second anime series, Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai, began airing in Japan on July 6, 2007; it was animated again by Studio Deen. A live action movie adaptation of the series, to be directed by Ataru Oikawa, has been announced for 2008.
The naku (???) of the title has a double meaning. Firstly, naku can mean "to make sound" (???), specifically referring to those sounds made by non-human organisms. Secondly, naku can mean "to weep" (???). It so happens that the English verb "to cry" carries the same double meaning as naku. According to the original creator, Ryukishi07, the red Na (?) in the logo is an official part of the title.
