If you only watched the anime you could almost believe that it was based on a good visual novel. It's like someone sat him down and explained that he actually had to write solutions for all the lock door mysteries so he decided to give up.

The anime is garbage. There actually are solutions to all the closed room mysteries. The answers aren't directly given in the VN but if you go back and look at all the closed rooms with the canonical theory the answers become obvious.

I've thought about this a lot, and at first I thought the same thing, but after thinking about it there weren't many opportunities for people to notice. Who would have found out? The only people that really could've noticed were Krauss, Natsuhi, Gohda, and Jessica. All the servants besides Gohda already knew. It's almost certain that besides on the October 4th conference Shannon and Kanon didn't have matching work days, so Natsuhi and Krauss not noticing isnt too much of a surprise. Even if they had a slight suspicion, what would they have said about it? "Hey, I noticed you and this other servant of a different gender have a pretty similar face, even though I haven't seen you side by side. Are you by chance the same person?" It's unlikely that the people who live off the island would notice because, as I said, they'd have differing work days. The one person that probably should have noticed is Jessica, it is a bit baffling she didn't. She lived on the island in the first place and its a bit weird she wouldn't notice her best friend and her crush have the same face. Still, it's not like she'd call them out for it. If you knew two people who looked similar, would you seriously suspect they were the same person? It's just too ridiculous to assume without doubting yourself.

>>138723344
It's never outright stated sure, but there are a lot of hints that lead to the conclusion of Yasu being male and not many to the conclusion of them being female.

In the confession there are lots of instances where they use the term "boyish" and things to that effect, like pic related. I should also add that Kanon was made by Yasu to exemplify all of his traits that he perceived as negative. Kanon is a boy because Yasu dislikes the reality that he is male. Zepar and Furfur are opposing genders to represent Yasu's gender identity issues, which wouldn't even exist if he was female. He was raised as female even though he was male, leading to him being confused about his gender. Obviously his mutilated/missing dick didnt help either though.

It just seems to me that since there a plenty of hints to Yasu being male and not as many to him being female, you might as well assume he's male. I do get what you're saying about the cat box ambiguity though, it doesn't really matter in the end what gender Yasu is. That's just why I say he and not she/they.

>>138723582
I forgot to mention yeah Lion being male isn't confirmation that Yasu is male, but since the only difference between Lion and Yasu is Natsuhi's acceptance theres no reason they'd be a different gender.

I still think Yasu being a boy is stupid and I like traps.

>>138723778
Read my two posts above yours and tell me why. liking or disliking traps has nothing to do with this. I'm reaching the conclusion of Yasu being male based on the hints and leads presented.

>>138723582
did nanjo, genji or kumasawa even tell yasu what sex he/she had originally if not then yasu himself/herself think that he/she has boyish body because of flat chest but no proof whatsoever if he/she is a male for a fact

Fragments are just figures of imagination within the world of Umineko. It isn't Higurashi. There is only one truth of the incident hidden in the catbox. Rion is just Yasu's wish for a better life that she was denied by Natsuhi.

>>138729270
You're right, nothing you just said contradicts with the posts you were replying to.

>>138729270
Bernkastel just wanted to open the cat box.

>>138729672
One of those posts was a response to someone who claimed that Lion and Yasu's gender should be the same. Saying that with infinite possibilities that Yasu could be either gender. Lion is a representation of Yasu's ideal self. What would have happened to him if he had been accepted and hadn't lost his ability to love and were allowed to live as a human. Fragments that speculate what he would be like as a woman would be speculating about a different person altogether. The whole point of Beatrice's catbox is that there are endless possibilities within the set rules. It was Bern who took it a step further and imagined a world where Lion wasn't ruined.

MetaBeato is female but is still Yasu in every other way. It's only an illusion that allows her to maintain her femininity as seen in episode 3 where she is surprised to see she is still female after revealing the truth. Yasu doesn't see herself that way she just wishes for it.

Episode 3 is the epitome of fictional storytelling.

>>138731493
There was something good in every episode but 3 had the most consistent quality and the best plot. Music was top notch in 3 too.

>>138731626
Music was best in 5 imo. Court of Illusions just bombards you with amazing songs back to back. They're all fantastic of course.

>>138731944
Yeah but the scene is too long. The tracks are all by the same artist if I remember correctly and by the time the scene is over I didn't feel attached to the music the same way. Music was still strong overall in 5.

>>138732045
>Yeah but the scene is too long.
It was completely fine.

>>138732063
Well it's been awhile so I don't feel too strongly about it but that's how I felt on my first read at least with regards to the impression the music left. Honestly if you think that scene wasn't too long then it's easy to rank 5 right up with 3 in just about every way, is it your favorite?

>>138732045
It was long yeah but I enjoyed the entire scene, one of my favorite parts in the VN.

They weren't all by the same artist. As for the ones that play first in the court of illutions:

Girls Witch Hunt was by -45
Smile-less Soiree was by Luck Ganriki
Kuina was by -45
Patchwork Chimera was by -45
Resurrected Replayer was by ZTS
Final Answer was by Dai
Discolor was by ZTS
Promise was by Dai
Tomorrow was by Dai

So yeah lots by the same people but those 3 guys are pretty much the best composers on the whole OST so not too surprising.

>>138732280
I was thinking mostly about only the first half of what you said. Thinking back on it the scene must be even longer than I remember but the music is definitely good. The -45 songs were just going back and forth in the first part of the trial too often if I remember correctly.

>>138731182
>Yasu doesn't see herself that way she just wishes for it.
But Beatrice, the persona of Yasu, sees herself as female. Yasu doesn't see herself as female. Yasu wish she was Beatrice, who sees herself as female. The distinction is subtle, but important.

Being a wishful thinking does not prevent Beatrice from existing in the meta-world, and meta-Beatrice is, for all intent and purpose, her own character with her own needs.

>>138732447
At the very least Yasu definitely did at one point want to be blond with big boobs to fit Battler's ideal woman. Obviously that got complicated down the line but its not too much of a stretch to say that Yasu desired to look like Beatrice.

>>138732447
Personas aren't personalities. They're just fronts or masks that Yasu uses to play out how she wants to live/thinks she should live or how she thinks a witch would act. The Beatrice we see in meta scenes is an act Yasu puts on. That was a big point in episode 6. I'm going to sleep right this moment so I don't have the time to defend my point thoroughly but you can tell from the way Meta-Beato acts that she is just a 'persona' for Yasu in the same way Shannon and Kanon are. The way the VN is written you never get to see what Yasu is like and feels really underneath all the lies (barring Claire in 7 and some other small scenes) but the manga makes it clear.

Ah, melting away, thanks, I was looking for this one.

Also, I know The great detective knows is supposed to be Erika's theme, but I can't help but think about her when I hear Resurrected replayer. It fits her character so much.

Ep 5 overall has the best songs, Patchwork chimera, Justice, Totem blume, Proud dust, Discolor, Hello your dream.. So much emblematic soundtracks.

>>138733666
>Erika's theme
I'd say Erika has more than one theme. Resurrected Replayer is one of them. Then there's discolor, the girl's witch hunt. liberated liberater and maybe even LixAxil. Whenever I hear these I think of her, even though they're not specifically her themes.

>>138733862

>LixAxiL

I don't remember when exactly resurrected replayer plays except for course for the ep 8 bern riddle, but it always seemed more of an erika theme. I'll check this later

>>138734140
>Liberated liberater
>Arguable, but somewhat more a featherine theme (with Look back) for me

I hear people say this a lot, but does Liberated Liberater even play during a Featherine part? I don't remember that ever being the case.

>Natsuhi's despair
Brought up by Erika.

>Dlanor's theme (along with Aci-L)
Fair point, but still closely related to Erika.

>Arguable, but somewhat more a featherine theme (with Look back) for me
The only place where it could play that comes to mind is Featherine vs Lambda. I think Erika's fight was a bigger deal than that.

>Erika X Battler, not really erika herself
Yeah, but guess who made a comeback.

As I said, they're not her own, but very closely related.

Meta!Beatrice is not piece!Beatrice. Piece!Beatrice is a persona of Yasu with a very clear role on the gameboard, but meta!Beatrice is the collective conceptual existence of all the Beatrices spurned by Yasu's tales through the age. She's a composite character, a concept, a waifu, and she's also most assuredly female.

Manga outright states Yasu never got a period, never growed breasts, and even Lion says he cooks because he believes in gender equality. Oh, and R07 also mentioned Lion's hair is not necessarily blonde in-story and is just an artistic choice, so don't even bring up the sprites because aside from Yasu having none, Lion's is not an accurate depiction of him.

Appearance doesn't matter at all because Yasu is confirmed to use breastpads and wigs to change her image, and is safe to assume she also can change her voice according to who she's acting as.

>lion being male is no proof cause he looks nothing like yasu
They're the same fucking person, Lion being male confirms Yasu was born male. Also Yasu is very strongly implied to be androgynous looking just like Lion, and the fact that people can't tell whether Lion is a guy or a girl connects at how Yasu was able to easily play both a girl and a boy without raising suspicion.

>>138724140
>did nanjo, genji or kumasawa even tell yasu what sex he/she had originally
Yes, they did. See pic related. Yasu is deeply disturbed she was raised as a girl, and the whole conflict comes from the fact that by the time they told her the truth, she already spent pretty much her entire life living as a woman and oh, now has a boyfriend. And even if she tries to live as a man, she can't be a full man because she can't fully function as one because of the cliff accident. Of course she becomes terrified of not only having to explain this shit to her boyfriend but also knows that she's fucked either way, and well, shit goes downhill from there on.

>>138724140
>then yasu himself/herself think that he/she has boyish body because of flat chest
Remember that part in the second game where George says that if he's going to die he'd rather spend his last moments with Shanon?

Remember how they were both found dead after that?

George tried to have sex with Shanon, and Yasu freaked out and killed him. This shit doesn't happen just because she might have a boyish body or flat chest. The whole dialogue between Beatrice and Shanon is an allusion to Yasu's fear of being seen naked or have sex.

ignore that fact that yasu is born from incest

>>138724171

That's because any hint of Yasu being female would make it too obvious that he/she were female. Giving Yasu a female appearance and some male traits evens it out so you can't tell the gender.

Remember when there was also another allusion to Yasu being scared of people seeing her naked? And how Jessica was freaking out during the whole thing? Yeah, no shit, having a boyish body or flat chest doesn't get this reaction out of anyone.

Have you guys been reading any good mysteries lately?
I just finished Murder on the Orient Express. It had some interesting implications if you look at it through a seacats mindset.
He created two possibilities at the end, and chose the one he thought was "just" not "right".
I loved that reveal, it's the kind of crazy solution you stick at the back of your mind but don't come to because it's too out there. 12 suspects, 12 knife wounds.
Otherwise I've been reading lots of Christie lately.

Remember: is all George's fault.

Battler is in the room because he metaphorically trapped himself in that room with his reasoning. He has to find a logical way to escape the room to continue the game.

I'd say the episode gets more interesting around the time the "love battle" starts.

>>138736593
>Discussing other novels that aren't by Ryukishi is derailing the thread, not to mention.
If you had atleast read Umineko, you'd know how closely related the Tokyo Zodiac Murders are. The book is even mentioned in it, alongside others. Stop being such an autist and pretending you know shit, you're the one derailing the thread.

>>138736646
The Crooked House was decent.

>>138736593
Except for the fact that these novels were directly mentioned in the novel and are of significance to the plot.
So best girl wars, Rika-fag shitting up threads in the past and roleplaying is not considered thread derailment?
Either way, I really don't know why you would care about somebody derailing the thread since you obviously haven't read Umineko and are here probably just to shitpost.

>>138736724
Tokyo Zodiac Murders were just namedropped in Umineko, that doesn't mean they're relevant to these threads

>>138736724
It was decent but the conclusion was underwhelming mostly because I viewed the culprit as the detective since she was the only competent character, which sorta contradicts with Knox's 7th in a way
Either way, I never said her works were bad, just not great.

>>138736742
He's obviously new, otherwise we would've seen more of him in the past.

>>138736820
One of Van Dine's rules says there should only be a single detective. I didn't assume she's going to be the culprit either, but the main character was obviously the detective.
I haven't read many of her works so I can't really judge yet, it's just that I didn't particularly hate the works I read so far.

>>138736891
True, although she pretty much acted like the Watson in the story, imagine if Doyle made him the main antagonist of the series.
I started reading Van Dine's Philo Vance series and I'm liking it a tad bit more than Christie's Poirot, although that's highly arguable.

Please explain something to me: how are we supposed to interpret that scene at the very end of EP8, where Battler is welcomed into the golden land, with regards to the meta world? Is it supposed to be the scene in EP5 when Battler realizes the truth? Is it set after all the meta stuff happened, and now there's two Battlers in the golden land, this one and GM Battler? Or something else altogether?

Well it's partially the parent's fault for raising such an entitled brat.
But is the implication in ep7 that he just straight up murders his mother in a karate fight because she wouldn't accept Shannon?
That's fucking brutal.

>>138739260
*ep6

>>138739135
I dunno. Eva really had it hard overall but she was still at fault in a large part. You can empathize with her but still hold her accountable for a good portion of the bullshit, especially concerning George.
On the one hand, George is likely shit due to his father's shit genes but it's Eva's constant need to protect and shield him that really fucked him over a new one.

Something I was wondering recently is why didn't George just start his own business instead of working at his father's company? He'll never expand his wings if he just keeps being protected by his father that way. I just assume that Eva was too fearful of letting him be his own man and convinced him to work at Hideyoshi's company.

>>138739260
I think it's more nature and nurture fucking George up.

>But is the implication in ep6
Not to mention he's the only one who would kill the entire family for Shannon in ep 4.

I still find it hilarious that women refuse to marry into a rich family because of how much of a faggot George is.
At least Jessica has the excuse that everyone's afraid of her because of how wealthy her family is but George is just a complete faggot.
It's funny how out of both sexes who lament not being loved, the guy is seen as being more pathetic. I wonder, why is that so?
Would anyone call Jessica pathetic concerning not being loved?

>>138739377
Jessica is a teenager, teenagers are stupid about love.
George is an adult.

>>138739414
Yeah, I guess that's true.

>>138739260
>>138739293
Parents with single children tend to do that shit, you can't really blame her for everything. Sure, she might have made mistakes, but guess what? People make mistakes out of stupid reasons and having a kid after trying for years would make all rational people love them to a scary degree. Even so, she did not deserve that kind of fate, she had it the worst in the group.

What is the track that plays in EP8 before the Erika vs Battler duel begins?

>>138739552
I think she tried too hard? I dunno, I can understand what George felt, since I was a single child for a long time and my mother acts almost the same way as Eva but I feel that she tried too hard. Mère poule, as we call it.

But yeah, Eva had it the worst. I just think that because she gave everything to her son to be what she could never and saw it slowly crash was just terrible for her. You always want your child to be good and having a child growing up to be George must have been the worst.

Marrying a goddamn servant girl. Jesus, what an embarrassment.

Jessica has friends. And I respect her for being rebellious and trying to find her own way, being unsure about herself. George I don't know, but he's off. He's completely sure about himself, he's been taught one certain way to live from his parents and he follows that "monarch" way of life without question. There's no heart there. And Jessica is all heart.

I can understand Jessica's rebellious phase but it's probably what makes her alienated from others. Maybe it's the culture? I always get the feeling that women, especially before the 90s in Japan, had to be clean, diligent and womanly. You know, the typical idealized silent woman who's only good for sex, bearing children and cooking? By being a tomboy, Jessica doesn't act that way and is probably not seen as a woman, the same way no one saw Mion as a woman in ep 2 of Higurashi.
What's worse, being a pathetic man or not being seen as a woman?

>>138739787
It's a weird vicious cycle.

I'm glad it's universally accepted to hate George. I used to afraid I was the only one.

Higurashi is a masterpiece. So is Umineko but for different reasons.
It's not fair to compare both. Umineko is large and more ambitious and depending on who you ask, fails or exceeds those expectations.
Higurashi is more a linear story to an extent where more and more questions keeps building up until everything makes sense in the end.
The SoL makes you relate to the characters before they get killed. But it's not like the SoL is just there to make you care about the characters, it also serves as amazing foreshadowing of all the events and themes of the story.

deredere is probably the idealized perfect woman in moonland though. It's the perfect womanly state and I always feel that asking women to be subserviant that way is ''sexist''? Not entirely sure how to phrase it without sounding like an idiotic feminist. deredere always lacks personality imo.

Hey, it's fine, you don't need to share her. She can be *your* whore. I mean, it's also fine if you don't want to think of her as a whore. Just think of her as ''your woman''. That's good enough, right?

>>138740742
I dunno, I always felt that Jessica and Kanon had zero chemistry. She wanted to be loved and he simply didn't want to feel inhuman, so he returned kindness with kindness.
With K1 and Mion, you felt there was good chemistry between the two, even if K1 saw Mion more as a bro than a girl.

>It seems almost innocent and schoolgirly the way she only confided in Shannon.
I think it's because they grew up together. They're like childhood girlfriends. Jessica also laments to her school friends concerning love but doesn't open up because she doesn't want to look weak and get teased. I can't even imagine Jessica asking her friends if they have a brother she can hook up with.

I know this post is old as hell but I only just got back to this thread. If you're going to write off that interaction between Battler and Yasu because it never happened, why shouldn't you also write off Kyrie not noticing it was Shannon? That never happened either, it was a message bottle story written by Yasu.

>>138741170
Yes, it did. But that was probably because of HYPE. After that, it died down and only really really hardcore diehard Higurashi fans bought it, and maybe even those didn't buy, waiting for the rest to be translated before buying.

>>138741198
He is a feminist in the correct sense of the word. I don't know how you could read his work without seeing that.
Hell, I even felt that Higanbana was Ryukishi saying
>oh, it's hard to write good women in your stories? Well here a collection of interconnected short stories consisting mostly of only women!
I hate feminism as much as the next guy but Ryukishi does it the right way.

I always felt that the male characters are rather less developped than the female characters.
Look at Higurashi.
Irie, Tomitake, Satoshi, K1, with the exception of Oishi, don't hold up well against the female cast of Rika, Mion, Rena, Takano, Satoko.

Same with Umineko.
Other than Kinzo, Battler, Rudolf, Hideoyoshi, George (he's a good character but he's still boring, even if written intentionally that way) Genji, Nanjo, don't hold up to all the female cast.

>Rikafag shits up another Umineko thread
This is why we need Trump.

>>138741424
Just because a story contains well written female characters does not make the writer a feminist, it just makes them a good writer.

As for comparing the male and female characters, despite how great the witches are I'd still say Battler is my favorite character. And Keichi was definitely developed enough to hold up to the female cast in Higurahsi, except for like Rika who obviously stood out more.

That's true. I dunno, it's just the feeling I'm getting out of his writing and I can't put in correctly into words. Saying his female cast is more well written isn't conveying my point across correctly.
>Ryukishi saying on his twitter that Lion should destroy genderroles and be in the kitchen more
I always get that feeling that Ryukishi's cracked the code to write good female characters and hinted at it in Higanbana and Umineko a few times.

>>138741552
Well, yeah, who doesn't? But I always feel it's more than that.

It's all negated by the fact she hid what happened on Rokkenjima (which is pretty bad already) and, sadistically, thoroughly, and fully destroyed Ange's life by hiring dozens of people whose job were to make sure she'd never be happy, before happily telling her she'd make sure she dies a horrible death -which she did, in EP4-.

Fuck Eva, fuck that game's double standards for trying to make her look ok after what she did.

What happened with Ange isn't completely her fault as well. It's not like Eva didn't try either.
Also, ep 4 never happened. Well, the way Ange died in ep 4 never happened. The rest did.

How do you deal with an ungrateful little brat who blames you for her parents death and declares she will never smile.
Can you really blame Eva for acting like Rosa? How can Ange not act as well as the idealized dead George at his age?

>>138742114
6 years old actually. Ange was smart enough to not be an idiot. I'm not really victim blaming, only saying that the blame is passed on both sides with neither admitting that they're both at fault.
They both acted like asses to the other but I like to think that Eva was welcoming to Ange until she started acted conceited.

But everyone can't handle the truth!

>>138742284
Because Ange took it so well when she learned the truth, didn't she?

>>138742182
>How do you deal with an ungrateful little brat who blames you for her parents death and declares she will never smile.
By not actively trying to destroy her life? Do you realize that Eva responded to Ange's criticism by HIRING MANPOWER to ensure she'd live the shittiest life, because Eva alone couldn't make it shitty enough?

>Can you really blame Eva for acting like Rosa?
Rosa had anger issues. Eva deliberately destroyed Ange. She gave her death treats, and put her in a a situation where she had a big chance getting murdered.
In real life, she'd get jailed for child abuse.
It wasn't Ange's responsibility to act nice to Eva. That's her life, she doesn't have to befriend someone she doesn't like, even if the reason is petty.
On the other hand, Eva didn't have the right to destroy Ange's life, because it's not just her life, it's someone else's. She savagely attacked a 6 year old kid, who had absolutely no way of defending herself. She invaded her life.

>>138742341
Ange actually never read the diary. The red and that scene was just what Tohya thought would happen to Ange if she did find the truth.

Woah, look at all that Ange defending and Eva bashing.
I'm pretty sure Eva didn't decide to do that shit when Ange was 6. The resentment accumulated over time on both sides.

>It wasn't Ange's responsibility to act nice to Eva.
It's not about responsibility but being fucking grateful. Being resentful to the only living person in your family is just being a dick.

>>138742486
>Woah, look at all that Ange defending and Eva bashing.
That's actually the definition of child abuse and there's a reason why we jail fuckers like that in real life but degenerates pedophiles like you probably wouldn't understand that.

Eva was objectively, morally and juridically wrong and deserved all the shit she got in her life. Trying to redeem her is shit writing at its finest.

>>138742486
Please leave. PLEASE.

>>138742535
I don't think she was supposed to be redeemed, just understood.

I wish I could get as much attention as Rikafag-senpai.

>>138716150

I don't know how i should feel about the series.

On one hand i love the setting, and the whole system of red truths which by itself has plenty of potential for spin-offs and games. The characters all have their charms, which makes you become attached to some of them. The music drives the series home with many of the pieces getting your blood pumping over the smallest of events and shed tears every time something by Dai shows up.

However the writing at times is inconsistent and falls flat on itself when pressed. I do understand about making the VN readers figure out the true end but without a canon answer by word of god it just leads to pointless arguments.

>>138742371
Also, Eva could have retired whenever she wanted, just by letting people take care of Ange. She just had to not do anything and everything would have went well.
Ange didn't have any choice in the matter. She was also too young to take responsibility for anything.

>>138742608
Ange goes "oh yeah Eva wasn't that bad man she was kinda nice" in EP8.

>>138742535
Try to understand Eva, you don't have to forgive her. I think that's what Ryukishi wanted for most of the characters. They almost all do terrible things but understand where they're coming from.
Eva was a wreck after she may or may not have had a small hand in the loss of the entire family. She lost her husband and son, and the one kid who survived would always look at her with suspicion and hate. Eva always had a bit of a child inside her and that child came out in full after the incident. It was that child that treated Ange like another child might.

>>138742659
Shkanon is basically confirmed canon. Acting like it could be something different after the manga is just delusional.

The manga is written by Ryukishi and confirms ShKannon, you're late.

I wish he were dead and rotting already.

>>138742693
>you don't have to forgive her
According to EP8, you actually have to. She doesn't only gets away with it, she also somehow secured the moral high ground.

>>138742694
>>138742748

I know that much and i have my own theories. Is the manga completed and how does it work? 8 different parts to it, so do i read them in the same order?

I agree, yet there are still retards that can't infer that stuff on their own and act like it doesn't make sense when really they don't understand it, so you kinda just have to push it on those people.

Wow that's kind of weird.

I think they would get along, and it would be a guilty pleasure of the super serious Bern. She would visit the HInamizawa kakera as a "sister" every once in a while afterwards and Lambda would tease her for it.

>>138743109
That was just an analogy, I naturally don't actually expect them to say something like "Eva is a nice person" in red. I was just saying you can think about it however you want.

But if you're going to say you can't use red like that, then what about "you are incompetent"?

Out of all your opinions I think the Bernkastel hatred is most interesting.
Why would you hate what was once Rika? She's not evil. She's the worst part of Rika but that's still a part of her. If the two met then I'm certain they would be friends. Bern solved Rika's problems and cast herself off into the lonely kakeraverse. This is coming from a Rika waifufag.

I'm not that Bernhater anon but for Rika, Bern is just a burden that she had to carry because of the timeloops she went through. It was both a consequence of, and a way to deal with them. When the timeloops got irrelevant, she threw Bern away and that's good for her, because no one wants to have a Bern
