Alliance to prevent the Higurashi no naku koro ni movie from being made
After the Higurashi live action movie was announced a week ago, fans of the original have gathered together in an online protest to stop the movie from being made. Currently they are encouraging fans to sign a petition or email their concerns to Ryuukishi07, the creator of Higurashi.
The petition they’re using is “letter to the chairman”. The site owner will take action depending on the amount of support for each petition and send their concerns to the chairman of the organization that they’re petitioning against.
If 20 people support the notion, a letter is sent to the organization. If 50 people support it, a phone call is made. And if more than 100 people support it, they will arrange for an interview with the chairman. Currently support for the petition against the higurashi movie stands at over 350 people.
Though, Ryuukishi07 had written in his diary that the movie is already being made, so they have changed their notion to let the makers know how the fans feel instead, so they can try to make a successful movie production.
(Not related, but Letter to the chairman was also being used to petition for Hunter x Hunter to start again with over 800 supporters, the site owner is still making preparations for the interview)
