Jun 4, 2022 Vallants Recommended I doubt anyone filters to recent reviews but i'm writing this just in case. I know MAL and it's marketing makes it SEEM like a reboot to the Higurashi anime but to keep this short THIS IS NOT A REBOOT. It is a continuation of the higurashi Visual Novel and some post content from there and also a prequel to the Umineko visual novel that comes after Higurashi in the When They Cry series. So in short do NOT watch SotsuGou if you have not completed the Higurashi visual novel and imo if you have not read the Umineko visual novel as that helps with ... Read more Open Gift Report
Apr 16, 2021 EDOSHINRATENSEI Recommended Don’t even think about leaving Hinamizawa. Just caught up to this Winter 2021 anime. I watched the first two original seasons of Higurashi, and I wasn’t too impressed with the horror aspect of it. The first two episodes tricked me into thinking that the new version was just a retelling of the original anime, but with better animation. However, when shit hit the fan, I was in for a gory and brutal horror sequel to the first two seasons. I saw people reacting to each episode and there were certain gore scenes that they had to skip because of how horrific the gore was. For ... Read more Open Gift Report
Sep 29, 2021 i-like-this Recommended June 1983 Youtube Rewind. THIS IS NOT A REMAKE. DO NOT GO IN BLIND. Watch at least the first two seasons of the original 2006 series made by Studio Deen. You have been warned and have no excuse. No complaining about not understanding what's happening. Now that that's out of the way... I couldn't quite believe that in the year of our virus overlord, we'd be blessed with a new Higurashi anime. The original is one of my favourite psychological horror anime/pieces of media so to have it be revived with a sequel was heartwarming and terrifying. At first, the show comes across as a remake. ...

Mar 23, 2021 chessgale Recommended I will discuss spoilers in this review. I'm going to preface this review with one thing. I believe this show was made more for people who read both Umineko and Higurashi, and enjoyed both, rather than those who watched the original Higurashi anime. And I respect that people will not and do not like many things this anime chose to do. Very likely, this will be a polarizing entry as it challenges many of the ideals that made the original Higurashi so appealing to a wide variety of people. That being said. I loved this so much more than I expected I would at the ... Read more Open Gift Report

Jul 3, 2021 Kiiroyuzu Recommended At first i found it difficult to decide if i liked this new season or not. It does alot of things right, but at the same time i found myself not liking the direction it was heading at times. It builds on alot of things one would be curious about after reading the original visual novels or watching the original anime, and brings you new stories that are honestly great. But at the same time also has plots that make the original feel obsolete in a way. While some characters are built upon and made alot more interesting, it also happens that some characters that ...

Mar 21, 2021 AnimeApproved Recommended Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni Gou is the fourth season of the Higurashi (not counting spinoffs) disguising itself as a remake upon its release to catch old fans off guard we were introduced to an entirely new story following the same characters we've known since Kai so sorry new fans but this is not a good starting point for the series. The first thing most people will notice is the overhauled art style which goes of this glossy, almost plasticly character aesthetic which made characters appear even cuter than past seasons to contrast to the dark and gruesome scenes to come later. Overall I think ... Read more Open Gift Report
Apr 21, 2021 Raffy_Mars Recommended Now, I gave this show a 10 overall because I did not just watch the anime in the past but I as well played the visual novel and for me, it is indeed a masterpiece because Higurashi in general gives the audience that kind of ride with excitement and thrill that you will beg to have more when it is ended. The story is unique and excellent because it has that mystery vibe and combined with gore and a bit of a touch of horror just makes it excellent. The characters are also good and unique and have its big role in each arc. The ... Read more Open Gift Report
Apr 3, 2021 quistal Recommended People leaving bad reviews haven't read or appreciated Umineko - I definitely recommend reading Umineko (because the anime doesn't cover the whole story) in manga or novel form before watching this series. If you love Higurashi and Ryukushi's writing in general, this is a must-watch. The story's style will be familiar to fans of Ryukushi07. I admit I was very disappointed in the story for the first half of this show, but knowing him, I held out hope that it would improve with a twist later - that hope was fulfilled and then some by the end. If you know your Umineko lore, this series becomes ... Read more Open Gift Report
Mar 19, 2021 VivavideoUser2x Recommended One thing i can say is that,despite the art changes and whatnot, this show does feel like i'm watching Higurashi all over again,it has some fluffy moments that don't take up too much time and there is always some form of uncertainty looming in the background Read more Open Gift Report
Aug 21, 2021 lucita_prk Recommended WARNING FOR SPOILERS KIND OF? After episode 15 is when it gets good IMO. Until then it's played out to be just like the first season of higurashi but it really isn't. Just like a lot of people, I thought this was a remake of that but I do not mind at all that it isn't. Because for me, higurashi (the main storyline that is, all the fanservice spinoffs are gross) had been enjoyable but really nothing special. Read more Open Gift Report
Jan 12, 2022 Nuke_Gunray Recommended First of: This is NOT just a remake of the original series. That's only what the series wants you to think... and by the time you have noticed what's going on, you're already trapped! ^^ But for real, I think this season has been the best one yet. It's a great feeling to see some of the most iconic scenes of the first two seasons rendered in this superb animation quality (especially when you compare it to the og) - yet at the same time, all these familiar scenes have a dreading, uncanny feeling of strangeness to them. It is the perfect mixture of old and new, ... Read more Open Gift Report
Aug 25, 2021 miksanz Recommended his is the third season of the Higurashi saga. In order to watch this, you don't need to go over all of the OVAs and the movie that were released between season 2 and this one. But I highly recommend to watch the first two seasons first. Now, this season goes back to the horror genre, and we separate from the masterful Thriller aspects from season 2. We are back again to gore and blood. Some of the violent scenes are so graphic than even the uncensored version has some censorship using black squares. This season revisits some of the arcs from previous seasons, but ...

Jun 16, 2021 SinCrow11 Recommended Introduction: First of all I want to clarify for any unsuspecting person that this is not a 100% Remake of the old "Higurashi no naku koro ni" but rather a summarized version of all its previous seasons with an alternative / original perspective entering from chapter 16 (but bad I remember) and this is important so that they do not consume this title before all their old seasons, because they are spoiled a lot and it would largely lose the charm of suspense, plot twists and other things that were seen here far above or even They showed them, having said that, let's now pass the ...

Apr 19, 2022 RONIN90MC Recommended just finished watching this one. it's a very fun anime to watch. i really praised its story about Rika and Satoko, this is a reboot/remake of the 2006 version (even though this one has about 24 rather than 26eps.) the only thing that disappoints me in this anime because in some episodes the characters seem to not taking seriously about what happens to surround them however i like the animation and the focussing on Rika character about what she is? or who is she? or what is her purpose to be alive?

Mar 14, 2022 Godslayer27 Recommended Well afters years have passed from watch higurashi no naku koro ni (the one of 2006, kai and rei of course) i encounter with the fact that were released two new season for this franchise which are higurashi no naku koro ni gou and sotosu, after some controversia at the begging in which people was questioning if this would end up being an readaptation of the old one or actually an secuel to the previous ones, it actually stayed more than clear that actually newcomers that dont have any kind of previous knowloadge of the previous seasons cant ( or shoouldnt) watch this one firts ...

Jul 25, 2021 Emina-chi Recommended FOK SATOKO I already hate her in the old Higurashi, now I hate her more. The mystery and horror part of this anime has already gone because if you already have watched the first 2 season you already know what going to happen, but since the time got back again that means there still a problem. The animation and the character design got improved and that is very nice. Story-7/10 Read more Open Gift Report
Apr 5, 2021 Tgiby3 Recommended Fuck Satoko. It was a fantastic continuation of the story, gives us more mystery, destroys our happy ending and leaves us itching our necks for more. I hope sotsu delivers. Brand new art style, picks up right at the end of Kai/Kira and brings us brand new arcs. potential tie ins to other WTC titles and just sets up for a more expansive WTC universe. Answers some unfinished questions by giving you 100 more questions for whats going on now DO NOT WATCH THIS IF YOU HAVE NOT SEEN THE ORIGINAL, IT IS NOT A REMAKE, IT IS A SEQUAL. And it's fucking great. except it made me hate ... Read more Open Gift Report
May 26, 2021 Mist878 Recommended Higurashi Gou... the latest chapter in Homicidal Lolis: The Reckoning. If you've looked at my score of the 1st Higurashi, you'll see I'm a bit biased... towards the original. It was my first horror/mystery anime, and few shows have compared to the complexity in its story, characters, and art IMO. But this isn't a Higurashi 1 review, but a Gou one, so I'll digress and get to the point. My first impression was bad, like you tasting a meal them vomiting it but try to savor the flavor by swallowing the vomit bad. I had hope for the modern art style ...
