Ryukishi didn't give a fuck about Umineko's real world, Chiru has been all meta, all the time. It seems all he was after was getting meta Battler his fictional waifu, fuck Ange and the others.

The genre is not dead, and I just feel lied to when it comes to Umineko.

If you read any mystery of decent quality, you will realize how mediocre this one is. Hell, it's barely a mystery, considering how badly Ryukishi concluded it. It's quite the sin to build up the who/why/how dun it, and then leave it up to the reader to decide. That is simply not how mystery stories work, there is a definitive answer that can be ascertained through the story, where no other possible truth can exist. It's like being given a puzzle board that has a myriad of different end results, there is no fun in that.

I am fine with it being a romance story by itself, but it should have never even made the attempt to add mystery to it, because the man has no idea how to properly utilize the genre. I feel like the only people who attained joy from the Chiru episodes were the ones who said fuck everything and blankly watched the trainwreck.

EP1 was the best, fuck the haters.

dat ambience
dat music
dat general unease
dat mystery

It all went to shit with LOL ROMANCE DRAMA. I now realize why most mystery novels do not delve into romance, the two genres are in opposition of one another, Ryukishi tried to defy that, and failed.

The entire goddamn story was screaming for wincest, that Ryukishi couldn't even provide that is proof that he vastly overshot his abilities.

God, Umineko was so much better when it was a murder mystery.

I at least have to thank Ryukishi for one thing. If your mystery doesn't have established rules, it is going to be fucking retarded. I did not quite grasp this before reading Umineko.

It's just pot calling the kettle black.
His mystery is pure shit and he stole most of the story from another VN yet he tries to play the "you readers are the bad guys, you lack love" shit.
