Onisarashi-hen[]
Natsumi's Family (Aki, Touji and Haruko)[]
Natsumi's family moved from Hinamizawa to another city (Kakiuchi City) despite the complaints of Aki, Natsumi's grandmother and a fierce believer in Oyashiro-sama. Shortly after the Great Hinamizawa Disaster, Aki begins performing bizarre rituals involving the death of animals and placing charms all over the family's house. Haruko and Touji, Natsumi's parents, do their best to keep Aki under control and hide the fact they're from Hinamizawa.
One day Natsumi sees her mother stabbing Aki to death, and a crazed Haruko encourages her family to chop up her body and hide it. The police soon discover Aki's body however, and Haruko assaults Touji for botching the disposal. Touji suggests to Natsumi that they turn themselves in to the police, but Haruko kills him by stabbing him in the throat. Haruko then attempts to kill Natsumi and they wrestle over a knife, leading to Natsumi killing her mother with it.
It's then revealed that Natsumi actually killed Aki. She pushed her down and accidentally killed her when she hit her head on a table, and Natsumi forced her family to chop up her body and hide the parts. She then attacked her dad for messing up the corpse disposal and later killed both of her parents. Haruko managed to call Akira for help when he called the house however.
