Hanyuu

Hanyuu, also known as Hanyuu Furude, Hainiryuun Ieasomuuru Jieda and Oyashiro-sama, is one of the main characters from the Higurashi no Naku Koro Ni series.
== Charactah Account ==
The mysterious "transfer student" in Matsuribayashi-hen. She has appeared to Rika all her life, but only in Matsuribayashi-hen does she choose to interact with others. She is very meek and often makes the noise "Au au au" when she is nervous or uncomfortable. She dislikes alcohol and spicy foods like kimchi, which Rika uses in large amounts when Hanyuu is being particularly annoying (Hanyuu's and Rika's senses are linked together).
Hanyuu is a goddess, specifically a manifestation of what the villagers refer to as "Oyashiro-sama." As a goddess, she possesses several super-natural powers. The most heavily featured among these is her ability to manipulate space-time to create alternate dimensions, parallel to the original Hinamizawa, but with reversed time lines.

== Trivia ==
* Her ghost form has a more adult appearance in the manga, making her considerably more busty.
* Hanyuu uses "boku" as a first-person pronoun, despite not being tomboyish at all. According to her, that's because in her time (she is 1000 year old after all) boys and girls didn't speak differently.
* Hanyuu appears in a single panel in the manga version of Episode 6 of Umineko: When They Cry as the game master who trapped Bernkastel/Rika in a hellish unwinnable game.
* At the end of Matsuribayashi-hen (the conclusion of the main storyline) and in the later Yumeutsushi-hen, Hanyu stays as a physical being... but in the in-between chapter Saikoroshi-hen, she's suddenly a spirit again. This is never explained, though the visual novels have implications that she can willingly transition between being physical and being incorporeal.
* Hanyuu's leitmotif "Over the sky" represents the "Goddess" part of her character and the human part is represented by "Air Pizz".
* Most people call her Oyashiro-sama, people who know her call her Hanyuu, but her real name is Hainiryuun Ieasomuuru Jieda. She got the nickname of Hanyuu because her husband could not memorize her full name.
