| ive just started the 2006 show, but i noticed there are a bunch of sequels, yet theyre not directly labeled as a new season. i know gou and sotsu are the newest ones, but are they linked to the original story? if i finish rei, do i need to watch anything past that? since nothing after that is labeled as like "season 4" or anything. and also the art style looks entirely different now ... cant find anything specific about the watch order online so i figured id ask here..the rating is pretty low lol |
| Release order is usually the correct other. Juet like in this case. Saimatsu_Fan said: can't wait for the clowns to Complain about gou and sotsu IMO Gou and Sotsu was fun and good watch. 👍 But that Dragon Ball fight at the end was just so out of place. |

I'm not expecting realism in a story about time travel and shit Of course, but that was still out of place. |

| The correct watch order is to not read the VNs and not watch the animes. Hope I've helped. |
| Just go with release order: Higurashi Nekogoroshi-hen Kai Rei Then watch Kira and Outbreak if you're interested, they're just fan service and alternate stories respectively And then you just forget Gou and Sotsu exist, trust me |
| Uhhh... What was the last 2 episodes of Sotsu again??? 2006 then Kai!!! Simple as that!!! |
" Kindness can sometimes lead you to trouble. "  |
| release order for everything. Also, don't let other people tell you gou and sotsu are bad without trying it yourself. You'll know soon enough whether it is for you or not, and it's not like you'll hate life and everything about the series if you didn't like it. |
| Main Series: Higurashi no Naku Koro ni (Main Series Part 1/3) Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Special: Nekogoroshi-hen (Season 1 OVA. Not cannon. I say skip.) Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai (Main Series Part 2/3) Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai Specials (2nd season specials that edit and redub scenes for comedic effect, but I don't recommend watching them at all because IMO they're painfully unfunny) Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Rei (Main Series Part 3/3) Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kira (Specials meant to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the series. Not cannon. Watch if you liked episodes 1 and 5 of Rei. I really liked these, though) Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kaku: Outbreak (OVA mini-movie. Not cannon. I say skip.) Sequel Series: Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Gou (Sequel Series Part 1/2) Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Sotsu (Sequel Series Part 2/2) Sequel series is largely seen as undesirable. I say skip it unless you are really invested in the series. The manga counterpart is still publishing and is supposed to have a less disappointing ending. It's better so far but not by much IMO) My recommendation is just to watch these three: Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Rei And only consider the sequel series if you really, really want more. |
| Main entries: Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Rei Secondary entries (if you enjoyed the characters): Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Special: Nekogoroshi-hen Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kira Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kaku: Outbreak Sequels (watch at your own discretion): Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Gou - Go watch Episodes 18-24 if you want to see the important parts of the story Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Sotsu - Skip to Episodes 14-15 to get the bare minimum of what's important |
