I am suffering. This is "We have Higurashi at home".
Congratulations, they finally managed me to give 1/10 to a full series... most likely, I have one episode to watch but damn.
Damn, that's not the case for the majority then


Higurashi no Naku Koro ni (Season 1) - 2006
Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai (Season 2) - 2007
Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Gou (Season 3) - 2020
Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Sotsu (Season 4) - 2021
First and second seasons are masterpiece. I then saw 3rd and 4th seasons existed... and that's what happened. Season 4 is the worst disgrace I had to witness, turning a complex and well-done plot with excellent character development into peak cynicism.
You can also note there's a difference of 13 years between S2 and S3. Higurashi already adapted all of the visual novel in the first two seasons and had a perfect ending, nobody needed another season, nobody asked for it. Yeah, Higurashi S3 and especially S4 is the "nobody asked" of anime imo. The problem that happened is that they advertised S3 as a remake just to lie the audience because if they said it was a sequel everyone would have gone irate.

There's a reason why sotsu has a low score.
