Higurashi no Naku Koro ni - When they cry:
Meet Maebara Keiichi. A newly moved high school boy who spends his days blissfully playing games with his newly made local friends. Without that superficial look on his life, his life becomes much worse with every turn of a corner. Where friends are not as great as they seemed, and where it seems like everyone's out to get him. Just for reference, the anime does skip around time a bit. Also, it may get a bit bloody.
