Mirai Nikki is really good, but it wasn't even that scary. Higurashi is a lot more scarier and mindfudging. To me Higurashi is the best horror anime I've seen even if it does mindfudge you. I mean little girls going psycho and killing other people? Disappearance of people and no one knows what's happening.

The animation is a little dodgy...I didn't like it at first, but you get use to it.
Entertainment is really enjoyable, you'll want more on every episode, wondering what is going on

:D Everything else is perfect. But yes, Higurashi is scarier than Mirai Nikki. Though I don't find it that scary either. o.0
