Where to Watch Higurashi: When They Cry - NEW in the UK

Higurashi: When They Cry - NEW has been quietly earning a loyal audience, and right now it's all available in Australia on Crunchyroll and Crunchyroll Amazon Channel, and in the US on Hulu and Crunchyroll. Soichiro Hoshi leads a cast that brings something genuine to every episode.

Originally commissioned by Tokyo MX, Higurashi: When They Cry - NEW quickly became exactly the kind of show that viewers rearrange their evenings for. New kid Keiichi Maebara is settling into his new home of peaceful Hinamizawa village. Making quick friends with the girls from his school, he's arrived in time for the big festival of the year. But something about this isolated town seems "off," and his feelings of dread continue to grow. The series ran for 2 seasons (2020–2021), building a story that gave its audience time to invest properly.

Crime and mystery fans will find exactly what they're after here — if Rounin is in your watch history, Higurashi: When They Cry - NEW belongs there too. It works equally well as a long binge or episode-by-episode over a few weeks.
