i agree with the virgilia thing but it was very late in the story so to speak. You are only given that hint, assuming 10 hours per ep, 20+ hours into the story and by that point, the whole story then becomes in contention as whether all the events was true or not.
Great for a die hard mystery fan, but knowing that the first murders in the shed was unreliable narration right from the get go really just saps a lot of motivation when how they did it isnt really important in my opinion for umineko, especially when you can already know who it was and loosely why they did it and just capped it off at that. "They did, heres why" - that has way more importance in the plot.
i think ryukishi even wrote that as a passage in umineko. metasplaining that mystery novels go on about who and why but never why and it really shows.
