Immediately after completing the fourth episode of Higurashi: When they cry, the new Anime of Passion available on VVVVID, announced the official website with a note that the series is in fact not a true remake of the 2006 anime, but rather a makeover that will make the public think “a Hinamizawa yet never seen “.
Fans had already speculated that it wasn’t a 1: 1 rework after the events of Episode 2, as the anime had already shown several scenes, locations and characters that were only supposed to appear at an advanced stage in the story. The work is described by the website as “an entirely new work”.Hence, some key differences from the events of the first Studio Deen adaptation are to be expected.
Unfortunately, it has not yet been confirmed whether there is a need to restore the 2006 anime before watching the new series The author has stated several times that this new season will be enjoyable for old and new viewers alike. However, to check the accuracy of Ryukishi’s words, we have to wait a little longer.
