Someutsushi is one of the arcs from the PS3 version of Higurashi. There are 10 arcs in the PS3 version that were never released on PC, so they are unlikely to ever get a proper English translation. I've started a project to translate these arcs and port them to MangaGamer's new PC version of Higurashi. Someutsushi is the first of these, and hopefully the rest will come in the future.
Someutsushi tells the story of Natsumi Kimiyoshi, who moved away from Hinamizawa a year ago. Unlike most arcs, it's set entirely after the Watanagashi festival. It's intended to be read after you've finished Chapter 3 Tatarigoroshi.
Installation requires a copy of the Steam/MangaGamer version of Higurashi Ch4 Himatsubushi. Download links and installation instructions can be found on the Higurashi Console Arcs project page on GitHub:https://github.com/07th-mod/higurashi-console-arcs
I've never translated anything before, so the translation quality isn't perfect. If anyone is interested in contributing, I'd really appreciate it! I'd like to get a more experienced translator working on the remaining arcs, or fixing any issues in the existing translation. It would also be nice to have an editor.

Wait a second, I think I've already seen that girl.
Isn't she from Onisarashi Hen?

Yep, that's her. Someutsushi is an expanded adaptation of Onisarashi.

I see, interesting.

I'm not really familiar with the extra arcs for Higurashi, what is this one about? It seems kind of odd if none of the original characters are in it.
Also, is it possible to use this patch with a different chapter than Himatsubushi? that's the only one i didn't get.

Thanks for this. The whole licensing thing with Alchemist made me think these would never be translated.
If you plan on continuing, which arc do you think you'll do next?

It's about this girl Natsumi who moved away from Hinamizawa a year ago. She's trying to live a normal life, but things start falling apart after word gets out about the great Hinamizawa disaster.
I had some difficulty getting the patch to work on top of Onikakushi, but you can try installing it on top of one of the others, there's a decent chance it will work.

I put together a poll to figure out which arc to translate next. Vote here: https://strawpoll.com/ee8gge6
