It's from Umineko. Give me a second.

--Do you plan on reviving her (Beatrice)?

Ryuukishi: In the plot for Episode 6, which we're considering now, we're thinking of a way that we can revive Beato. But if too many other things pop up that we want to write about, who knows?(laughs) However, it does seem that Battler doesn't enjoy Beato being in low spirits all the time and wants the brighter Beato to come back. The thing I don't want you to misunderstand is that Battler doesn't want to return to a world where he and Beato are basically on the same side. He only wants to end this tale in a way that will make Beato satisfied. Shortly after Episode 5's release, many people pointed to Battler's acceptance into the ranks of witches and wondered "Hasn't Battler lost sight of his goal?", but that's not the case. As Bern said in the beginning of Episode 5, Battler has no chance of being released unless he defeats Beato's riddles. At the end of Episode 4, we learn that "Beatrice hopes Battler will win and end this game", so Battler must win. Furthermore, at the end of Episode 5, Battler reaches the fundamental truth behind "who, for what purpose, and why". If he can lay that bare, he will win. So, if we liken it to chess, Battler actually hasn't yet made a move to achieve checkmate. The process that will lead to a checkmate has only been formulated in his mind. So, according to our plans at the present, Episode 6 will be a tale about proving whether Battler actually did reach all the way to the truth. He will actually make and carry out the moves he has thought of. In other words, Battler becoming the Game Master "proves that he has understood everything about the world of Umineko".

ITT we come up with crackpot theories regarding Seacats.
