GOU’s last episode ended on a major cliffhanger, and fans are happy that they don’t have to wait for an unsolicited amount of time for Season 2.

Studio Passione is ready to hit us again with the mystery series, and we can’t wait to know the plot of the upcoming season! Will the gnawing fear and the mystery become overwhelming for the characters?

Higurashi: When They Cry – SOTSU is the second season of the Higurashi: When They Cry – GOU anime and it will premiere in July. A new trailer was also released for the anime.

All the main characters are shown in the trailer, with hints of a new chapter. The mystery deepens even further as Rika and Satoko seem to have been caught up in a dangerous situation.

The words “Sotsu” and “Gou” together make the word “Sotsugou”, which means graduation. It is possible that both Rika and Satoko will graduate in the second season.

Or it might be the last season altogether. The possibilities are endless.

A new visual for the upcoming season has also been revealed. The visual has a menacing aura that perfectly suits the anime series.

About Higurashi: When They Cry

Keiichi Maebara has just moved to the quiet little village of Hinamizawa in the summer of 1983 and quickly becomes inseparable friends with schoolmates Rena Ryuuguu, Mion Sonozaki, Satoko Houjou, and Rika Furude.

However, darkness lurks underneath the seemingly idyllic life they lead.
