"Hill House, not sane, stood by itself against its hills, holding darkness within; it had stood so for eighty years and might stand for eighty more. Within, walls continued upright, bricks met neatly, floors were firm, and doors were sensibly shut; silence lay steadily against the wood and stone of Hill House, and whatever walked there, walked alone.”

From 1-4 easily the end of EP3. You spend the whole episode slowly getting sucked into Beatrice's lie and I fell for it hook line and sinker. Then you get to the end and Battler reads the contract and you think "oh fuck oh shit" and then nothing but ahaha.wav *cackle cackle*. Absolutely fucking amazing the first time round.

From Chiru basically anytime Dlanor is fighting, Kinzo's room in particular. How she spends most of the time being soft spoken and expressionless and it all fades away once she starts enforcing. She goes from no expression to a slight smirk to full on *FINISHEDFINISHEDFINISHEDFINISHEDFINISHEDFINISHEDFINISHEDFINISHEDFINISHED*
*DIE THE DEATH* *SENTENCED TO DEATH*.

Something that's worth pointing out is that the Greek firing code in the VN isn't actually Greek at all. It's just Japanese written with Greek letters. Maybe Maria tried to write it in Greek but fucked it up?

Also, in one of the anime episodes the text is in Russian, but that's probably just DEEN being DEEN

I finished Umineko Ep. 5-8 (with PS3 patch). I started in November 2015 and I finished today - February 2016.

I remember 4chan anons had some theories that showed up in Ep. 5-8. We solved the epitaph. We had a bomb explosion theory. We had a Battler Shannon pony theory. We had a Battler is Kyrie's real son theory. That's all I remember.

Meitantei no Okite.

It's a story about a detective knowing he is a detective story. Times to times he goes to his "thinking room/backstage" to talk, and think, with his sidekick while the story is suspended.

Probably a large inspiration for Umineko, even though it is unknown in the west.

So did Eva actually not kill anyone during episode 3?

According to the manga Eva killed Rosa, Maria, Rudolf, Kyrie, Krauss, Natsuhi and Battler
>>
>>14764414
Well, couldn't it theoretically be possible for Yasu to kill Rosa/Maria?

She was "dead" after all, so she had a perfect alibi. As far as Battler goes, isn't that after 12:00? So doesn't that mean the bomb went boom and everyone died except Eva?
>>
>>14764513
The VN shows Eva shooting Battler in the chest at the end, so that was probably her

Of course he's a virgin. Although Battler was a player like his father, he never went the entire way and just pretended to get with girls because he was both bored and nihilistic.
You have to remember one key piece of evidence though. Battler was 18 during the events on the island and Ikuro and Tohya released the forgeries 12 years later.
What's the name you give to someone when they remain a virgin past their 30s? A wizard.
So yeah, Battler never had sex.

They never specify, but she seemed pretty old, especially considering she had cancer and IIRC there was a line in the VN about how she could have been even more influential had she become popular 10 or 20 years earlier when she was still healthier and younger.

Either way, Ange's growth as a character really hit home for me. Becoming someone successful and generally content and in peace with her life is such a huge leap from the suicidal and depressed 18 year old she used to be, it's amazing. I know it's corny, but when I finished the VN a few years back, it definitely made me change my view on life to a more positive one, which is funny considering I only got into the series originally for the memes.

It's not possible. To quote their webiste:

Removing them will not revert them to their original sprites, you will literally have no sprites or backgrounds if you attempt this. This patch is NOT interchangeable.

He also talks about Rosatrice in another interview:

>I then would go on to ask about the fan theory that the character of Rosa Ushiromiya and Beatrice in Umineko are, in fact, the same person.

You're not.

Because first thing you would know is that she's not the things you mentioned but

2. Embodies "hardwork" and unwavering will.
3. Cake

You are neither of those.

>>
>>14772333
I like how Umineko's witch have interesting quirks far beyond what should be expected from their title.

Lambdadelta is a cake and the witch of Certainty. Bernkastel is a cat and the witch of Miracle. They each have a name, a personality, a secondary attribute, and a title. They don't match.

In other works, anthropomorphic personifications tend to really look like their theme. But in Umineko the witch of Death would probably be made of clouds, called Stephanie, and a huge eater.
>>
>>14772549
>They each have a name, a personality, a secondary attribute, and a title. They don't match.
Bern/34 don't match with each other because they are supposed to be opposites.
east v west, blonde v blue, light v dark, day v night, 99% v 1%, absolute power v unyielding possibilites, etc.

But their personalities match with their titles.

Lambda is the witch of certainty. Her power is "absolute power". She represents the 99.99%. She supports those who work hard and have absolute resolve (like Miyo) because in reality that's what you need to succeed with CERTAINTY.

Bernkastel is the witch of miracles. Her power is "endless reset". She represents the 0.01%. She supports the weak who fight in the face of impossible odds (like Rikka or even Ange) because in reality a MIRACLE is that's what you need in the face of impossible odds.

The characters.

Ryukishi may be a shit writer, but the man knows how to tell a story. None of the characters are good and none of them are evil. A lot of the characters in Umineko, are greedy and selfish and do despicable, horrible things, but Ryukishi somehow manages to make you empathize with them. He writes in a way that you understand where each character is coming from, and why they act the way they do.

It's what I appreciated the most in umineko, and something that I try to strive for when I write my own stories.

Play it vanilla. The old sprites are far more expressive and they'll grow on you.
The first 4 chapters are question arcs. Once you read 1-4, look up a guide on the order of the answer arcs.
It takes a while to get into, but once you get hooked, it's hard to stop reading. Have fun and good luck solving the mysteries!

Funnily enough, although this person obviously takes it a bit too far, I think that I too got some religious vibes from umineko. I can't help but wonder whether or not Ryukishi himself is a religious person.

In a way, I think she's right. I think it'll help people who think only in logical terms see the importance of faith.

>The book has some scenes that are very familiar to my own experiences with Jesus. For example, there's a girl who is unhappy, but becomes happier when she makes friends with someone who can only help her if she believes.

Really? I thought Maria was extremely pitiful. True, believing in Saktarou helps her from the reality of having no friends and an abusive mother but you can clearly see how she takes these childish delusions too far and ends up becoming a wreck.
>>
>>14774472
Actually, I just thought of something else. It actually really makes sense if Ryukishi was a christian considering a major theme of Higurashi was the idea of recognizing your sin and atoning for it, which falls in line with the Christian doctrine specifically.

I don't know, maybe I'm grasping at straws here.

I think she means Ange, not Maria, since she says that the girl carries around a book

It's just escapism glorified. Yes you can sugar coat things for people who can't handle the truth, like giving solace to Maria, but in the end humans become stronger by facing the truth and dealing with it. Ofcourse you still need white lies here and there, but in general I feel like magic is overglorified. Then again I rooted for Erika to win so my opinion might be biased.

I thought that too but I personally think that the only reason he made Buttler look like Battler is to use Ange as an important unseen character in Last Season. It made the tragedy more personal somehow because you knew that if Butter was like Battler, there would also be an Ange, and it was funny that she was actually included in the story.

I also find it somewhat funny that the actor of Rika actually grows up as the story continues.
In Higurashi, she's about 10 years old.
In Umineko, she looks like a teenager.
In Higanbana, she looks in her early 20s, pretending to be younger, like those old tv school sitcoms where adults pretends to be teenagers.
In Rose Guns Days, she looks to be in her late 20s or in her 30s?
And in Hotarubi, there's a Rika character that looks to be in her mid 30s or early 40s.

I swear, Rika is endlessly growing up as Ryukishi keeps writing stories.

I convince people by simply saying it's a masterpiece and to start with Higurashi. There's really nothing else like Ryukishi.

>>14775480
For starters, ask if they played any adventure games, like Ace Attorney. See if it's something they already have experience with and if they enjoy at all or not.
Visual novels are still largely like books, but with pictures and sounds that can enhance the experience. I believe sound is an important element in horror and suspense, so a horror genre visual novel done right can exceed a normal horror story in plain text.

I agree with the other anon, start them off with Higurashi. They only have to read the first episode and they can decide for themselves if it's something they should want to continue and get into.

Both Miyo and Lambdadelta can be written as 34. It's just a reference to Higurashi

Lion's a dude.

It's been suggested that yasu/lion/beato isn't a full woman nor man, which ever one he/she was before doesn't matter because genitals were destroyed when Natsuhi pushed the baby and maid off the ledge.

Funny thing is why only penis/vagina was destroyed. Maybe maid was holding baby and rock pierced her from the back also pushed through her into his nuts or some shit?
Umineko so crazy.
>>
>>14779319
>Lion's a dude.
There is no evidence to prove this. It's simply more ironic if it were male.
>>
>>14779326
There is plenty of evidence. Re-read episode 7. Pretty sure R07 out right said it too.
>>
>>14779326
In Episode 5 they say that the baby was male. The only reason Yasu isn't male is because he/she was pushed off the cliff, but Lion wasn't. I don't care what Ryukishi says about cat boxes, Lion has to be a guy
>>
>>14779330
>There is plenty of evidence. Re-read episode 7.
Evidence you cannot provide.

>>14779336
The baby's gender was never given. The voice on the phone was male, but you cannot prove that the voice on the phone belonged to the baby who was now grown up. What proof do you have that it wasn't Rudolf fucking with Natsuhi?

Again, no proof. I've even seen people use Ryukishi's twitter when he said that Lion should be more in the kitchen for gender equality something something, as if it were proof, when it also doesn't confirm anything concerning the gender of the baby.

The baby is genderless and it's perfectly fine like that.
>>
>>14779354
Why do you think the ambiguity existed in the first place? Kanon and Shannon, Zepar and Furfur. You're in denial.

Again, no proof. I accept the ambiguity and leave it at that. Cat box and all that.

>>14779373
I take it that you cannot provide proof?
I have read the manga and I can confirm that nowhere does it state that the baby was male.
>inb4 you post manga images of Yasu lamenting that he/she doesn't have breast inferring that only dickless men can't experience puberty

I've had this argument many times. There is no proof. Doubting whether or not I have read the manga will not make the proof appear.

The ambiguity exists as a reflection of confusion. He was raised female before figuring out his birth gender. There would be no reason for any of this if she were just born female. Again, you're in denial.

No proof of this either. Yasu only laments that he or she cannot have children. As I've previously stated, it's only more ironic and tragic if Yasu were male. And more or less irony does not make something fact.

>>14779395
Tape recorder or someone using another name. It's really simple. Or a person using another name, calling themselves the baby, as Erika suggests in the next page. Saying that it wasn't X doesn't provide proof either.

The manga confirms that there is no personality disorder, only one person playing roles. So that does not make Yasu special in that only he or she can do that.

The blue truth is not a red truth.
>>
>>14779451
Also not that because Erika says that only one person can have many names does not mean that others cannot have many names as well. Hence, the blue truth is not a red truth.
>>
>>14779453

I know, but it's never suggested at any other part in the story that anyone else has multiple names. And as Dlanor always says "all clues must be presented" and so on
>>
>>14779475
Nor is it ever suggested that only one person can have multiple names.
>>
>>14779481
That's not the point. They say all the time that clues needs to be presented beforehand, and there are no clues that anyone else has multiple names. If anyone else did have multiple names then there would have to be clues for that, but there aren't

There are clues that Shannon has multiple names as early as Episode 1, but not for any of the other characters
>>
>>14779491
>There are clues that Shannon has multiple names as early as Episode 1
Hmm, I don't recall that. Regardless, while I am arguing that many people could have different names, I do only think that only one person in the game had the ability to change names. And I don't think that there is any proof there was proof that only the culprit could have multiple names. If anything, it's simply evidence that anyone could have different names if they felt like it. It's more of a theory of how the culprit did the murders and evaded the red rather than foreshadowing proof.
>>
>>14779507
I think he's referring to Shannon's other name "Sayo", which is what George calls her by when proposing to her.
>>

>>14779451

That's a blue truth. It's nothing more than a suggestion.

Just because Battler didn't bother breaking it because it gained him nothing to do so at that point, doesn't mean it's golden truth buddy.
>>
>>14779524
Just like how Battler used the Blue truth at the end of ep 4 even though Lambda said that he was wrong on nearly everything.
>>
>>14779326
>There is no evidence to prove this. It's simply more ironic if it were male.
No, there is evidence to prove it.

1. Lion's reered as a male
2. In Ep5, Natsuhi remembered the baby was male and thought the androgynous caller was a "male"
3. Yasu's history mentioned his torment about his genitals being destroyed and not being able to reproduce. It's much more likely that a baby suffer penile/testicular damage and survive rather than irrecoverable vaginal/ovarian damage and survive.

I also think she said the baby was male, but I can't remember when. But the caller definitely said "I'm your son". If the caller got the gender wrong then she probably wouldn't be so shaken up about it
>>
>>14779547
>1. Lion's reered as a male
No proof. Lion doesn't want to be called a guy or a girl, and is thus neither while both.

>2. In Ep5, Natsuhi remembered the baby was male and thought the androgynous caller was a "male"
Which cannot be proven that the two are connected as it could be someone else.

>3. Yasu's history mentioned his torment about his genitals being destroyed and not being able to reproduce. It's much more likely that a baby suffer penile/testicular damage and survive rather than irrecoverable vaginal/ovarian damage and survive.
And it ends up being ironic, since you had to add ''much more likely that'' rather than provide proof. It's more ironic for it being a baby suffering testicular damage and pretending to be female while being male ''rather than'' etc etc, because it's more ironic.
The reality of Yasu is simply that she was unable to bear children and could no longer love. Lacking a penis and losing overies are both plausible ways of not being able to have children, and there is no proof that sides one over the other. Nothing except irony.
>>14779558

Not only that, but she calls him "the man from 19 years ago", suggesting the baby was male. Unless she really didn't know the gender, which seems a bit far-fetched, considering she was his adoptive mother

>>14779714
Natsuhi was given the baby and threw it off the cliff basically within the hour.

Was it really the same day? I don't remember that. But even then it would be kind of strange for Kinzo to give her a child without telling her the gender. Things like that are kind of important

Natsuhi had the child for a while, and would have known its gender. Unless of course due to mysterious trick X, Kinzo concealed its gender by using a plaster baby dick or something.

In Episode 8 Nanjo says that Yasu suffered "large laceration" to the genitals. If he/she had a vagina then I don't think that would necessarily make it unusable, unless it was a really deep wound

Source required.

Also remember that umineko's massacre occurs in 1986. When Shannon/Yasu was 19. So technically it's some time between her birth in 1967 and 1976 when she was already shannon and made the promise with battler.

Don't apply Nanjo/Japanese 1960's medical knowledge to 2016 American/European medical knowledge especially with all the openness to female hormone use now.

>>14772264
The characters for sure, especially the antagonists. The way he can make them so cruel and do and say despicable things while still being entertaining and memorable is my favorite part about reading his works. There are times where I'll want to root for them like in Erika's case or be disturbed and horrified like in Gabriel's case for Rose Guns Days. And then it gets satisfying to see the protagonists finally get a good strike back after all that build up and smugness.

Spidererika, Spidererika,
Does whatever a rapist can
Spins some tape, any size,
Catches witches just like flies
Look Out!
Here comes the Spidererika.

Erika killed the thread. Let's revive it, shall we?
Do you think it's possible to solve Ryukishi's fist few question arcs without reading further? I can never solve without reading most of the arcs. He says that they can be fairly difficult, but they seem more like impossible to me. How does everyone else do on their early playthroughs? Does anyone else take notes or draw out floor blueprints?

I managed to solve most of the ones on ep 2 and 3. Some of them were wrong though. Ep 4 was quite hard, at least for me, to remove the illusion of magic. And I wasn't really thinking about ep 1 when I played it.

I guess if you tell someone who really like to read mysteries to read and try to solve the first for episodes, it's definitely solveable.

It's definitely possible. All the clues you need are there, you just have to find them and piece them together, which can be pretty hard

That being said, I didn't, because I'm stupid. But looking back on it there were so many hints I missed the first time

Did I "solve" (as in set a culprit) it? Yes, the earlier episodes (1 & 2) are easier to "solve", but not to answer. Maria and Kinzo in ep 1, Jessica in ep 2, and Rosa and Eva in ep 3. stopped doing this in ep 4. But I wasn't close to the "answer", except for certain parts like Sayo committing suicide or the first twilight in episode 3.
I tried taking notes during episode 2 but decided against it.

Anyway, to stop the blogging, yeah, it is possible to get the right answer. Back when Umineko was getting translated some people had the right culprits about episode 3 or 4.

The voice on the phone for at least the call regarding her favorite season was shannon because of natsuhi's red truth about "I have only told shannon my favorite season" or something like that. She says that after she tells the voice on the phone her favorite season therefore, that voice must be Shannon.

Shannon could have told someone else

You are right about it being Shannon on the phone though. That was confirmed by the manga. They screwed up in the PS3 version and used Battler's voice actor for the voice on the phone.

It's definitely possible to at least understand how the fantasy and mystery scened work and how they parallel each other which in itself presents a lot of useful hints. I remember I needed at least episode 5 to understand more of the mystery side though but I'm not clever anyway
