You neither need a C nor a CPP background to learn D.
Before starting to learn D I was only (and barely) reading C,
just because of the few times I had to deal with C headers file
when using bindings in another lang.
You can start D from scratch. This is not because there are
comparisons (such as the wiki sections: comming from...) that
it's mandatory.
For example with
http://ddili.org/ders/d.en/index.html
you can start from scratch, at least the book is advertised so.
