An English patch for "Higurashi no Naku Koro ni" has been released by Sonozaki Futago-tachi. The patch only covers the Onikakushi Arc, but for fans of the Higurashi series it's a start. I just recently read the first two volumes of the manga and liked them a lot. I've also started watching the anime, but have only watched the first two episodes so far.
Sonozaki Futago-tachi also has a walk through on how you can legally download Higurashi no Naku Koro ni for about $15.00US from Melonbooks.com for those who can't read Japanese. I plan on picking it up when I get paid Friday.
