Pretty much.

I highly suggest picking up the manga, as there is an enormous amount of material left out of the anime. And you really cannot simply skip to :Re, since there's a lot of things that won't make sense without reading the prior series. (Like, the anime just plain cut out two arcs and left out huge amounts of stuff from others. The Aogiri Arc is really long, but was condensed down to basically 4 episodes of the anime.)
