Since People are still asking whatever they should watch first:

Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni Gou and Sotsu are Not Remakes,
They are Sequels and a Continuation of the old series!

Here is the Order beginning with the first one to watch:

Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni (2006)

Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni Kai (2007)

Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni Rei (2009) -
For some User recommended to be as Optional except Saikoroshi-hen

Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni Gou (2020)

Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni Sotsu (2021)

Everything else related to Higurashi is Optional, if you want to see them as well, you can check them on MAL in Related Anime!

If you worry about bring confused as well, to newcomers I can guarantee you that you will get them answered later on in the Anime! It is a common thing in this series to have 'Question & Answer Arcs'

Umineko No Naku Koro Ni is in MAL to be considered as an Alternative, they do indeed have some few connections and belong into the same Expansion from Ryukishi07 BUT it is still not entirely similar and can be considered as their own series as it is and also the Anime is not recommendable, if you wish to know about Umineko, check out the Manga or play the Visual Novel both Higurashi and Umineko are based off!
This is just a Recommendation, if you wish to still see the Anime of Umineko, you surely can.

Thanks for Reading and I hope you will enjoy the series!

Its really sad how many of these forums and comments need to be made, it seems a lot of people now are watching the new one and not the old one and people just brush it off cause they don’t understand it. I really wish gou and sotsu weren’t labeled as remakes cause they’re far from it

I watched everything except Rei. Higurashi
rei just destroyed the proper higurashi feels and really isn't even much important.

Saikoroshi-hen is the only thing important in Rei, the rest are fanservice arcs.

Ngl, i was almost making a huge mistake by watching gou first instead of their original 2006 anime
Thanks to the google of course for leading me into the right way by watching the originals first 😂

I'm confused as to what you mean when you say Higurashi Rei destroyed the proper feeling of the series after stating in the first sentence that you didn't watch it. How can you say you feel it destroyed something or dislike it if you haven't seen it? Do you mean you just watched the first episode and were turned off by its superfluous and disposable nature? Because the first and last episodes (episodes 1 & 5) are like this, but episodes 2 - 4 are a canon arc.

No. She is a very important character. Altho a bit over the top, but i hope everything works out in the end. Watching SOTSU now.
