Higurashi n Naku Koro ni Kai Specials is a love letter to Higurashi no Naku Koro ni and Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai.
It takes little snips from those animes and changes the context into blooper scenes. It's basically Higurashi's outtakes and silly ideas on full display.

It consists of 24 episodes lasting from 20 seconds to 1 minute per episode.
It's not that long, and it will take roughly 12 to 20 minutes to watch it all.

Gonna keep this review nice and short, like these specials. Overall, not much to say. These short specials range from 20 to 40 seconds long and don't really offer anything in terms of value except for the jokes, gags and punchlines. Think of these as bloopers if you will. Unless you're a big Higurashi fan (like me) and want to get the most of what you can get out of this franchise or you're a completionist, I really don't see any reason as to why you'd want to or feel the need to watch these shorts. They're hardly memorable and some jokes didn't really land ...
