You definitely need to see both seasons before you see this, and I would still recommend you to see nekogoroshi-hen as well to understand a little more about the fragments of reality.

Absolutely. Higurashi gou is not beginner friendly in the slightest

It's a sequel to the previous 3 seasons, so I'd say yes.

Engaging with those so clearly beneath you achieves nothing but lowering yourself to their level.

I think they presented it in a way you don't *have* too, though it certainly helps. It's simultaneously a sequel and a reboot, so as long as you understand the gist of how the worlds of When They Cry work, and understand this is both a reboot and a sequel at the same time, you'll be able to enjoy it.

That said, I do think you'd get more out of it if you did watch the previous seasons. And participating in fan theory discussions would also benefit with watching "Umineko" as well. Umineko is a different story altogether, but shared universe, so if you want to get deep in discussions on the show, you'll need to watch that.

Gou will also spoil the main mystery of the first two seasons so...
