Spoiler-free review
At first, I was somewhat happy to hear of this remake (sequel) but as said I was also scared of this from the experience of the first anime it looked too bright and from having a low studio but boy I was wrong this remake wasn't a remake at all It had an everlasting impression on me just like Kai did and after my problem with the first on, this one finally solved the flaws.
Story: 8/10
The unraveling story was given to us by the same person who created the when they cry series that took everyone by out everyone by surprise adding this story
...
with its outstanding storyline and solving some minor plot holes from the first anime was made up for the people who don't have the time or don't want to read the visual novel or manga version.
Art: 10/10
It finally gave us something that wasn't meant to stand out from its name but from the hard work and effort given by Studio Passione with some references to Umineko fans. It also has almost perfected character designs following the pace of the original visual novel with better character designs and flawless outlines.
Sound: 9/10
The Music for both Op's and Ed's very well suit the animation and gives us minor clues without noticing it even if you try to find some, the sounds they use for every situation really suit it most well and also stand out with making it very noticeable picking up the pace of a certain situation making the mood perfect.
Characters: 8/10
Together back with its lovable and unforgettable cast, one of this season's flaws is the lack of the other characters and their roles in the story in the 2nd half of the story which lost the sole purpose of Higurashi Kai.
Enjoyment: 10/10
Watching this had me with a lot of feelings, some episodes were relaxing and fun and some also had scenes that kept you on the edge of your seat which made it very enjoyable as the show paces towards its climax
Overall: 9/10
Despite having a few flaws in terms of characters and plot differences this was still very admirable and enjoyable in a lot of aspects with its outwitting pacing that was certainly unforeseeable with the clues given piece by piece in each chapter, the masterful story, mystery unraveling, and outstanding voice acting skills were outstanding added to scenes that kept you at the edge of your seat.
