The little exchange claire had with will supports this imo. It seemed pretty clear that shannon was beatrice, she had help from some of the servants possibly including Kanon, Kumasawa, Genji and Nanjo (probably the latter's part was to give inaccurate checks eg saying someone is dead when they're not) and committed the large scale crime. So the question is "What happened during those days?" It seems numerous "truths" or perhaps theories are what we've been viewing, but apparently Eva released her own truth using a message bottle at some point? So if we follow that, it's possible Shannon didn't commit the crimes even though she's beatrice? Basically, Eva is the sole survivor of the tragedy, the fact that there's no evidence or anything to be found implies the bomb attached to the clock must have gone off. I said once that I thought that was probably the real game, but you denied it nii.Am I missing something? Also, the game shown in the tea party which was proclaimed to be the truth by Bern (even though she didn't complete the sentence) mirrors the game where Eva survived. My observations, so it seems Shannon is Beatrice? But didn't actually commit the murders or would have committed them anyway. Tbh, I felt I got a pretty good grasp of everything and then it's once again taken to shit XD. That's why those manga chapters help immensely and are 10/10 in my eyes And yes they're canon, because the VN author gave his approval before those chaps were published.Īgain, I recommend stopping for a bit after EP7 to read those chaps, because I'm pretty sure there will still be some things you're not sure about (most likely ), but my personal belief is that you can enjoy EP8 even more if you know about everything. You can pretty much figure out everything once you're done with EP7, though some stuff still remains difficult to fully understand. You're still missing some crucial stuff Anyway, tell me once you're done with the whole of EP7, that's when we can talk about most of this for real and I will link you to a specific bunch of chapters that go into a lot more detail than the Visual Novel, because the Visual Novel will remain somewhat vague on a number of things. If you want something concrete, you're not wrong about a whole number of things but you aren't quite there yet.

Lol there isn't much I can comment on Holt, I don't want to confirm anything until you're done with EP7.

It seems like this is essential to understanding Umineko (and I think I've forgotten enough of the anime I could be surprised again) since it didn't get as much adaptation as the Higurashi series, and there hasn't been an anime of Ciconia either.Lol there isn't much I can comment on Holt, I don't want to confirm anything until you're done with EP7.

Visual novels interest me but the "choose your own adventure" format with "different choices - different endings" somewhat overwhelms me because I don't know what to choose and am afraid that while I might replay to get new endings that I might not discover all of them.Īre the Higurashi/Umineko/Ciconia games near enough to linear that I wouldn't be too overwhelmed by choice and get to discover the content pretty easily? I mostly want to just enjoy the gradual telling of a story (like the anime) and not get lost in too much choice/replay.

#Umineko anime unsolvable series
Does that seem like it's worth doing, or should I finally get around to reading the visual novels or manga of the Higurashi/Umineko series
