The boat captain.

He was hiding in the tunnels under the island every time it was declared there were only X number of people on the island, so he didn't count as "on" the island.

there is something i want to know, im sure people here have figured it out. how were beatrice games supposed to remind battler of his promise?

>>15174904
By having him figure out that Shannon faked her(or his) death and murderd his family so he could finally remember that he had something going on with her. What the point of any of that was or why she didn't just say so is yet another mystery.

>>15174675
With this level of reasoning can Erika skadoo too?

>>15175019
She wanted him to figure out on his own, also the family abused her significantly. So she hated most of them.

>>15175111
>>15175019

i feel like theres more to it. in the manga it says she "kept protesting to him" and he couldnt see the truth because of being incompetent. thats really are there is to it?

What if everything was set up by Bern and/or Lambda so that they would have a fun game to play with? In Episode 6, When Kyrie was talking to Jessica about Asumu's death, she said this.

"And I'm grateful to my master... for giving me that chance. My 'certain willpower' in not giving up on that man no matter what was rewarded with a 'miracle'."

>Bern and/or Lambda caused Asumu to die before Kyrie killed her.
>Kyrie doesn't commit murder, and is able to marry Rudolf.
>Battler gets into a fight with Rudolf over the remarriage and leaves the family.
>Yasu suffers.

Imagine Erika sitting down, her soft pantyhose against your cheeks, with one leg down on the floor and the other propped over your shoulder. She lets out submissive grunts while running her hand through your hair, a full face blush across her face as you eat her out through a hole in her pantyhose - one that she, just a few minutes ago, had been yelling at you for ripping.

After her orgasm, which you detect when she tightens her grip on your hair and trembles a bit, you withdraw your head from her warm pussy and quickly give her a kiss, your lips still wet from her slit. She gasps and struggles (failing) to escape your tight embrace. When you pull back, there's a trail of saliva mixed with her juices between the two of you. She is visibly embarrassed.

Erika looks up at you with puppy dog eyes, and you laugh to yourself that such a haughty girl is so nervous and submissive. You tell her to get on her knees, and she does so quickly. Though still visibly nervous, she gets a perverted look on her reddened face and runs her hands up your legs, staring at the bulge in your pants. She hesitates before rubbing her face against it, breathing heavily.

She bites on the waistband of your pants and pulls them down, quickly rising back up to the large, sweaty rod in front of her blushing face. Her eyes speak her nervousness, but her mouth is twisted into a pervy smile. You put your right hand on her head and call her a good girl as she starts sucking on your balls, never taking her eyes off of your face. The entirety of your sack fills up her mouth as she hungrily slips her tongue around all over it, occasionally pulling off with a pop before eating it up again. Her tongue is warm as it slides all over, and you feel the slightest hint of her teeth as she continues to churn it around in her mouth. Along with the sucking noises come frequent excited and squeaky moans.

Your cock is rock hard in response to her sucking, perverted squeaks, and cute little nose bumping up against the underside as she moves. You ask her if she's ready for the main course and she provides a muffled "mmhmm~", shaking her head with your balls still in her mouth. She sucks hard, drawing back slowly before letting them pop from between her greedy lips. She's now grinning like an idiot with drool all over her face.

Just as she closes in on it, you tell her to wait. She looks up confused and you caress her face with one hand, squeezing teasingly on her cheeks and forcing a pucker out of her lips. You tell her to stand up on her toes so you can give her a kiss. She leans in close, and does as commanded, putting her hands on your shoulders for a kiss. After making out for a minute or two, she withdraws, tongue out. Still pressed up against you, she slides down your body, the side of her face trailing your torso, until she reaches your cock again. You place your hands at both sides of her face, gripping the base of her twintails in your hands, and pull her in close.
Her eyes are closed and her mouth open, eagerly sounding out an "aaaah~" as her face closes in. For the first couple of minutes you just hold her at the head, where she hungrily sucks and licks at it. When she begins trying to move closer on her own, however, you guide her down your cock. You ease up on your grip and just gently run your hands through the hair on the very top of her head, as she's now eagerly bobbing up and down on her own, whimpering out sucking noises and muffled moans with every movement. Looking down at her moving so quickly, you find yourself about to cum and tell her you're going to give her a big facial. She looks up at you and pulls off quickly with a pop, looking at you with a perverted gaze and a wide smile: "Puah~ You don't want to cum in my mouth?~" Before she can finish saying "mouth", you unload ropes of hot semen onto her red face, which she gladly accepts.

>>15200155
As each was released in Japan, users would upload both real and fake screenshots and sprites, which made for fantastic chaos upon each release. Erika bride, Featherine, and Zepar/Furfur were the ones we were sure were fake because of how crazy they looked. There were fakes such as a chrome Bernkastel, and texts saying that Jessica committed suicide with and umbrella and that Maria was Rudolf's daughter with Rosa.

I had a dream today I was watching a R07verse kinda of Live Action. It was amazing and had Bern and Lambda as the Players.

It was a story that looked like it was related with the latest manga and Umineko story and had Umineko characters. It had nice camera angles and so on.

With this I ask you if it would be possible to do a great Live Action, if we had Unlimited Bugdet Works etc.

Question, did the original japanese version have the Metal gear and Hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy references or did the translation team add them?

Krauss was the mastermind.

So what is everyone's personal rankings for each chapter? And what did you like/dislike about the series as a whole? For me it goes 5>3>1>4>8>7>2>6. I absolutely loved 5 and 3 for their clever mysteries and great character moments. Chapter 5 especially for having my favorite scene in all of Umineko. 6 and 2 are pretty slow paced and tend to beat you over the head with their themes, although 2 really only has this problem in it's first half.

>>15213456
I actually really liked 6, but it seems like I'm in the minority there.

>>15213456

4>8>5>7>6>3>1>2

It seems to be a really unpopular opinion for some reason, but I really enjoyed Chiru far more than I did the first four episodes.

>>15213538
Yeah 6 seems to be pretty polarizing. I actually really liked Battler having to deal with all the challenges that come with being the game master, but having to deal with Zepar and Furfur got old pretty fast. I also didn't like chick Beato's character very much but at least that had a nice payoff in the wedding scene.

>>15213610

In case you haven't finished the series yet:
It was only George and Jessica getting the test, correct? That's because of how Sayo (Kanon and Shannon) loved them and wanted to see their answers. Probably to decide if someone would live or who to kill or first.

Episodes 1 and 2 were some murder scenarios Sayo Yasuda wrote and then released as message bottles. The later episodes were written by Tohya Hachijou. Upon regaining his memories as Battler, Tohya initially thought that Eva was the culprit, hence her role in Episode 3. After Tohya released Episode 3, Eva read it and realized who he was. She met with him and told him the truth, which he used to write Episodes 4 and on.

Wait, if Battler thought that Eva was the culprint, then how come Yasu is the culprint in Episode 3? Episode 7 clearly says that Eva and Hideyoshi were bribed by Yasu in Episode 3

>>15222047
The way I see it, Meta World Beatrice probably repurposed Tohya's story to fit her gameboard. Since Yasu must be the culprit on the gameboard, Eva and Hideyoshi were turned into accomplices.

Here's my thought. Featherine is described as a witch who reached the realm of Creators. Creators are supposedly all-powerful beings free from any and all restrictions. However, this means that anyone who becomes a Creator ceases to exist, since even their own form is a restriction.

I always wondered if Featherine's memory device was maintaining her existence by preventing her from fully becoming a creator, acting as a sort of limiter.

So many beautiful himecuts in this VN. Truly wonderful.

I still find it pretty amazing that they bothered doing a whole new set of sprites along with ton of bonus drawings and stuffs for the whole cast of Umineko, just for a fucking pachinko game.

Though I guess copying te ps3 sprites and panels of Kei Natsumi's manga did clearly speed up things.

>>15232237
>just for a fucking pachinko game.
Anon, I don't think you understand how big the pachinko industry is

http://www.economist.com/news/business/21620248-legal-gambling-and-changing-tastes-threaten-huge-pachinko-business-balls-air
>Pachinko has been in decline for years, yet its revenues last year were put at 19 trillion yen ($175 billion). To give some idea, that was almost twice the Japanese motor industry’s export revenues. About one in seven Japanese adults play it regularly.

It's pretty much guaranteed that the pachinko game made tons more money than the PS3 game did, so it isn't that strange that they would make new art for it

>>15232301
Well, they sure didn't for the Higurashi one.

>>15232307
The Higurashi pachinko's art was based on the anime, but it still has lots of new stuff, like these shitty cutscenes

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CFAdObnXKFs

Oh man, this new live action series sure looks great!

https://twitter.com/sptv_higurashi/status/730437050520887296

R07 really lucked out into getting so many top tier composers to like his VNs with shitty sprites
How did they even handle the composition of songs that fit so perfectly in some segments having so many different composers?
It seems really hard to coordinate all of them

>>15233108
I hope they find success over in Japan because there is no reason musicians that good should live in obscurity.

When I read Umineko for the first time, I was really focused on the "mystery" side of things, so I got the whoddunit and whydunnit right and pretty much all "howdunnits" as well.

However, when I re-read it, focusing less on the "mystery" and more on the characters, I realized how really tragic Umineko is, so much that I was tearing up during almost all of ep 8.

>>15256954
To me the sedatives part just felt like the Ushiromiya adults being kind of shitty at taking care of children, but who knows. Maria does show some signs of a possible disability, but it's kind of hard to tell considering you never get to see her grow up. Some kids can be weird as hell and then turn out completely normal once they grow up, so...

>>15256954

There are lots of little quirks in the early arcs that you can pick up with that aren't just her acting like a kid. She remembers and obsesses over little things and can write in Hebrew, and she typically doesn't show emotion on her face despite what Deen and Alchemist decided to exaggerate to shit. Rosa wasn't prepared as a young mother to handle her issues. EP4's deal where she screams that she hated her might have been awful, but you have to look at it from Rosa's perspective. Maria was a true burden that took away her youth.

I tried to get stuff from this blog a while ago, but I couldn't seem to find any way to get English translations with original sprites. The HIG.rar which is linked contains updated sprites (if I recall correctly), the formats between the mangagamer release and the japanese release are different enough that copying data from one to the other is trivial. Am I forgetting/missing something?

>>15259209
>is trivial
*is not trivial, of course.

Does the official English manga use coloured text for Red and Blue Truths? I've been reading the scanlations and I just realized that their use of colour is something the official product might not even be able to pull off.

Pretty sure that's because they're redoing the entirety of Higurashi's translation but only tweaking the fan translation Umineko already has so there's a lot less time and effort required for the latter, but I agree that it's kind of dumb even when taking that into consideration. They could've just taken their sweet time with Higurashi and released all the Question arcs together (same with Answer, obviously) even if it meant having to wait longer.

What is the fucking point. The Umineko Project version has the sprites, backdrops, and CGs that are given, along with voice acting, native 1080p, and tons of special effects. At least they aren't releasing it in parts like Higurashi(Full game never) so people can actually see it.

The only good thing to come out of this is that they may put Ougon Musou Kyoku on Steam, which with Steamworks would be great so you can actually play with other people. Otherwise there is nothing "Ultimate" about it.

If you have Umineko installed you can unpack the archives with these tools:
http://nscripter.insani.org/sdk.html
The images are not encrypted, so fortunately using Susie is not necessary.

Alternatively, if it's only some certain ones you're after then you can grab them from here:

I want to tittyfuck Eva.

Does Umineko even count as a mystery? It's barely solvable at all and requires huge leaps of faith, and then the end of the story is all about scolding you for treating it like a mystery novel.

>>15276414
>It's barely solvable at all and requires huge leaps of faith
Not really, all the answers are hinted at. It's possible to solve it with just the first couple of Episodes, even though it would be very hard

>>15276445

You can figure out the epitaph starting from whenever Krauss and Natsuhi talk about the areca nuts but good luck figuring out the whole Natsuhi/Yasu thing and whodunit with just the question arcs.

>>15264906
where can i get these sprites?

>>15276731
According to Ryukishi in Answer of the Golden Witch, some people actually figured out the Taiwan thing early on

>R: The mystery of the epitaph is such an example. Even though the correct solution in form of the Taiwan theory surfaced at quite an early stage, it didn’t gain many followers back then. There were some people who noticed it as “Awesome”, but there were at least as many voices claiming it to be “definitely wroooong!” it became just one of many quite soon. To be honest, I followed some of the message boards live back then. When I typed the F5 key to refresh the page, things like “Taiwan has trainstations” popped up… and I thought, “Nooo, I’ve been found out!”.

>>15276769

Sounds more like a case of throwing shit at a wall and seeing what sticks rather than a conclusion that readers could reasonably draw.

>things like “Taiwan has trainstations” popped up

kek

>>15276731
>whodunit with just the question arcs.
Wasn't the Shkanon theory the most common theory back then? I remember people figuring it out after Episode 2 because the way Shannon killed herself was the same trick as in And Then There Were None.

They wanted to give you a (You). Have another!

>>15276731
In Episode 1 (I think?) when the cousins talk at the beach, Jessica mentions that Odawara might not actually be Kinzo's hometown, and Shannon says something about him possibly living outside of Kanto. What's important to remember is that Taiwan was part of Japan until 1945, so it was all the same country when Kinzo was a child. It's very hard to figure out, but it certainly isn't impossible. Episode 3 gives even more hints, with Eva looking at the map and all that.

The biggest problem with the epitaph is that it isn't really solvable in English, due to the amount of Japanese words with double meanings. Either way, it's still a very impressive riddle, and I wonder how Ryukishi even managed to come up with it.

>>15276731
You can find out there is something up with Shannon and Kanon by the first four episodes alone easily, you just have to pay attention to the magic scenes. Most people who read umineko for the first time tend to just write these scenes off as unimportant, however they are crucial as to solve the 'whydunnit'.

When Battler learns about the unreliable narration and structure of the story in Episode 3, you can go back and re-read the previous episodes and previous scenes applying that knowledge to pinpoint what you know for sure is real and what isn't.

The story doesn't take forever going over in-depth Ange's and Maria's flashbacks in episode 4 for no reason, the story wants you to think about what magic is and why Beatrice would use it, and once you see the reasons that Maria uses magic, it can give you the tools necessary to go back and re-assess the magic scenes in the story, to truly get to the 'heart'.

I think the reason why most people never solve it, its not completely the fault of the reader I do agree that Ryukishi purposefully makes you focus on the wrong things, is that most people who read it on the first time are just riding along with Battler, solely concerned about what is 'real' and what is 'fake', and aren't really focused on why scenes are shown for their narrative purposes.
