What if Takano spared Rena, Mion, Shion and Satoko's lives and instead had them kidnapped by Tokyo and used as guinea pigs in some creepy underground lab for a few months?

What if Rena, Mion, Shion and Satoko got their mouths sewn to each other's assholes and turned into a human centipede?

What if their friendship is so unbreakable that they still love and respect each other even after spending months swallowing each other's shit and hating every second of it?

Would they really remain good friends and never bring up the subject again after being released and forced to never tell anyone about it?

Or will Satoko remember those long hours, days, months she spent swallowing Rena's shit every time Rena awkwardly tries to joke around or be friendly with her?

Just how strong is their friendship? Are they really suchh good friends that they wouldn't mind swallowing each other's shit? This is a test. A duel between me and the reader.

I bet Satoko would go full mindbreak with Hinamizawa Syndrome and the creepy doctors would be forced to tie up her hands so she doesn't kill herself.

I bet Mion would cry herself to sleep every day as she hears a mindbroken Satoko convulsing and Rena puking inside her mouth-asshole closed room because she can't take it anymore.

Mion's hairy teenage asshole would be burned by Rena's gastric acid and Rena would have to swallow her own vomit enema straight from Mion's asshole.

They would probably develop a pseudo-language based on grunts and moans so they can tell the person in front to shit a bit more slowly because they are fucking choking on the shit.

Erika doesn't blamed everyone else for issues. In contradictory to Ange she proud of what she have been through and who she is. She acts up to "fit in" with her backstory. Represent herself as the detective that only seek for the truth. She learned to "enjoy" the abuse as self defense mechanism. Also self-aware of her role as a villain and enjoyed it. Keep in mind that Meta-Erika was influenced by Bern so that's that. Regardless of her way to deal with her owm insecurity, she's villain that how she should be written. Without her ep 5-6 would be pretty damn boring. Heck, without Meta-Battler, if Ange was influenced by Bern, she would likelily be the same with Erika as it sort of implied in trick ending to.

I felt that the manga said too much in its version of EP8. Some of the clarifications that were written in were great, but some of the parts that were in the original sound novel were butchered, so to speak. The whole feeling of a sad end to a long journey is sort of lost.
The part where Erika rants to Battler about how frustrated she was at not understanding/noticing the existence of Yasu in particular is one of the parts that I am not sure whether I hate or love about the extra parts that R07 added in the manga. In the original sound novel, Battler and Erika fought against each other in a race against time to the backdrop of the song lixaxil. The hollowness of the sound novel version of this fight is something that I feel is there to compound the feeling that the story is coming to a close.
Yet in the manga, I think Erika's revelations are dissonant to the actual meaning and intention of what R07 aimed for in the original.
But it does develop one of my favourite characters, so I guess that makes it somewhat OK in the grand scheme of things.

What did /seacats/ think of the new parts in the manga version of EP8?

I think manga improved Ep 8 in a lot of ways. i prefer the way it handle the relationship between Ushiromiyas since it gave some moreinteraction between Kyrie/Rudolf, Rosa/Maria, Natsuhi/Beato, Eva/Ange and Shannon/Battler. The story is a lot more impact when you know "how/whydunnit" in confession of the golden witch. The confront between Ange and Ushiromiyas in golden land was handle way better. I also don't mind Erika how Erika realised her own mistake in her confront with Battler to. It's a lot more detail and actually stay faithful to Erika character IMO

That being said beside soundtrack, one of the few thing I prefer in VN about manga is Ikuko/Bern interaction about book of truth in VN which IMO one of the most important scene of ep 8. https://lparchive.org/Umineko-no-Naku-Koro-ni-Chiru/Update%20146/

The manga butchered that scene a bit but other that i don't have much against it

As a reader who was actively working to solve the mysteries, I don't think I like it. While clarification and explanation of the crime can be important for a mystery, somebody who paid attention and dug only a little bit would have already realized most all of this stuff in episode 7. There was even a lot of drowning related foreshadowing in episode 5, which is an episode largely representative of Beatrice's true demise. I think All of the episodes are representative of some idea, and episode 8 was one that didn't live up to. expectations for a whole lot of people. But I'm glad it ended that way. If anything, episode 8 isn't the ending, it's an extensive epilogue made to celebrate and say goodbye, not an infodump for the tragic heroine.

I heard some people don't like how it open catbox but honestly I never understand why people said there's still catbox about Yasu being Beatrice. Ep 7 make it pretty damn clar even in VN that Yasu is the answer. I like how manga expand that part about Yasu a lot more. I don't really feel emotional connect with Yasu in Ep 7 if it was not for confession then I probably have a time understand her motivation.

Other episodes ideas would be pointless without Ep 8. IMO Ep 8 live up what other episodes set for. It give the perfect closure to most of character that leave incomplete

>> No.18948641

Unpopular opinion but I think ep 8 is best Umineko episode to be honest. It pretty much capable of what Umineko are all about. All the theme and message are tied each other and actually gave a meaning to other episodes before beside being anti-mystery vs. anti-fantasy mind game

These are just part of why reading other stories is important, since by just reading Umineko you're only exposed to one particular foray of its themes and ideas. By reading other stories, you realize subterranean attack is possible, or that you can take this specific route, or strike with bizarre weaponry to create the most unexpected vantage point, or that you can even win by changing your win condition altogether through a change in perspective or the strategy at large, or any other ways. As you can see, your thinking is currently one dimensional and conditioned for a discipline where flexible thought is paramount (the arts).

Also, don't forget that originality is a meme! Something does not have to be original to be good.

As said by William Gaddis, "That romantic disease, originality, all around we see originality of incompetent idiots, they could draw nothing, paint nothing, just so the mess they make is original . . . Even two hundred years ago who wanted to be original, to be original was to admit that you could not do a thing the right way, so you could only do it your own way. When you paint you do not try to be original, only you think about your work, how to make it better, so you copy masters, only masters, for with each copy of a copy the form degenerates . . . you do not invent shapes, you know them, auswendig wissen Sie, by heart . . ."

So don't stress about originality per se, okay anon?

>>18948641
I agree that 8 is the best part. It's the total culmination of the rest of the story's ideas, subplots, themes, etc. It really is the heart and soul of what Umineko is about. Oh, and of course it has a lot of Lambda which is definitely the best part of the best part.

Writing is just a matter of will. And no one cares if a work is “original”, there is nothing new under the sun.

Where a writer shines in my opinion is in the execution of their idea - in their written word. You DONT need a good idea to make a good story.

Grammar and styles are good to keep in mind(and definitely an area I lack in), but above all else - JUST WRITE

Well it's synthesis. No good writer was also not an avid reader, and it's precisely because of this (and what I said above). The writer reads the greatest stories and takes them in, and only then, will he have finished walking the staircase of human ideas so that he might synthesize all those previous ideas into the next step for the posterity. Going off the beaten path for its own sake is almost sure to get you lost, but once in a while, someone with a glimmer in their eyes sees something that nobody else has, and they choose to construct the end of the path this unexpected way, or create a worthy fork earlier on. Should the sage be remembered, those after him who could peer into his profound image (through literary scrying, which is truly rare) will find his fork or new direction and build on it further, so that those after could follow....
It's all synthesis, so I agree of course.

>>18950355
So this, too. While all great writers read studiously, all great writers also wrote incessantly, and they certainly didn't create masterpiece after masterpiece from the start. You can't expect to attain excellence without learning thoroughly the taste and look of defeat, so that you may avoid it forever on (and make fun of it if you can back your ability up). There's a degree of willpower in all things, and getting up after falling down is the truest exhibition of it.

People with gender dysphoria should have their mental disorder treated until they feel comfortable in their own bodies, instead of fucking up their perfectly healthy genitals with surgeries, becoming ugly trannies that look nothing like their preferred gender and losing most of the sensitivity in their mangled clits/dicks.

The only way to look good as a tranny is getting the surgery as a kid, before you develop too many male/female characteristics. But even then it's an atrocious practice. It's pretty insane that kids are not considered mature enough to get their bodies lewded but are perfectly capable of choosing to have a fucked up surgery that will destroy their genitals and replace them with fake ones that barely function at all. Just because some feminist lady convinced them to do it. Whatever happened to lolis simply being tomboys? Nowadays, those girls are encouraged to get a fucking sex change at age 9. Fucking SJWs.

Its not the only example though, its just the most well known one. Also you wont be finding thousands of examples.

nope, but he approved and checked the whole material. Even if they introduce a plot hole or two, they would tecnically be canon.

The point of the furniture complex is that she's neither, you fucking mongoloids.

She can't be a woman because despite having female looking genitals and being raised as one, she doesn't any female organs.

She can't be a boy because she lacks of any male characteristics, Kanon can't fulfill the male role for Jessica. He's never going to get bulky, grow a beard or have an erection.

That's why she consider herself sub-human who needs love to be complete. Because if there is love her fucked up body doesn't matter.

This isn't to say that children always revert back to their original sex if they were raised trans. This is just to show that nurture, how they were raised, isn't the determining factor on how children perceive their own gender. You seem to be acting like its black and white, but its not. Also its not called backpedaling, its called I'm lazy and didnt want to have to spend time gathering shit for you that you could look up on your own.

Some of the translation choices that UmiProject have made are actually quite good. Example:
復唱要求
Originally translated as "repeat that/this" by Witch Hunt in their original translation. Literal translation: "repeat of statement requested".

The kanji characters themselves are seldom used in normal conversation in this way by modern Japanese standards, with the near complete usage of kanji harkening back to the early days of Japanese as it split off from Chinese but Chinese characters were still used on old legal documents. The probably intended idea of the usage of these characters is to make it seem like a courtroom definition, hence UmiProject translated it as "Repetition requested." instead.

Pic related. One of the many scenes with the aforementioned set of kanji.

>> No.18955342

>>18954863
The kanji are strange, but the sentence itself doesn't sound stupid in Japanese.

It's one of those things that are better lost in translation for the sake of not making Battler sound retarded in English. I mean, who the fuck speaks like that? Why would he say "repetition requested" to a fucking witch, as if he was in a courtroom?

It just doesn't translate well to English and the UmiProject translation hurts the experience.

As a piece of music, Yoru no Himawari is slightly better. Hope is really damn close, though.

The difference is that the first speaks to me on a personal level, while the second is strongly associated with Sayo Yasuda. It's hard to choose one over the other, because I love both.

I considered Sora no Mukou to be Higurashi's main theme, though. I'm not sure why, since it makes me think of Miyoko when I hear it and she's not exactly my favorite character in the story. I associate You with the main Higurashi cast, but I don't like the melody itself nearly as much as Sora no Mukou. It's still pretty good, though.

I finally finished Subahibi after it was so heavily recommened here as similar to the WTC series and specially higurashi
I agree that it feels similar to the WTC series with all the bullying,crazyness and the overall optimistic viewpoints that the ending had(even if I did never notice the Higurashi reference someone mentioned)
I really loved DtRH2 and the wild ride chapter(even if some sex scenes were so overly edgy that I felt nothing) but the second half of the VN being explanations of things that most people would easily figured out with the first few chapters made the second half very boring even if it had nice moments since I already knew what was going to happen, and also the Ayana's identity is up to your own interpretation thing was lame

I did enjoy the first half the most, because it kept me guessing and making crazy theories. Yuki is an awesome protagonist and Takuji is entertaining as fuck. I used to be just like him and it was absolutely pathetic. Obsessed with fictional characters, wishing normies dead for having girlfriends and generally fapping my life away. This character hit close to home and it brought back some bad memories. I used to be Takuji, the masturbating ballerina.

But he was also really hilarious and had the most quotable lines in the entire novel. I specially like that part where he's fucking one of his delusions and he carefully adjusts the speed of his savior hips because "otherwise the shock waves would destroy the building". It's comedy gold.


That said, I really enjoyed the second half too. In fact, Jabberwocky 1 is my favorite chapter. I really like Tomosane as a protagonist and Hasaki is the cutest imouto I've ever seen. Once again, I have to congratulate SCAぢ for not giving a fuck about breaking taboos and doing whatever he wanted with the story. The idea of Tomosane finding meaning in his life by having an incestuous relationship with his traumatized loli sister is exactly what many of us would consider a wonderful everyday. It's far from a healthy relationship, but it's still beautiful.

I kind of guessed some of the anwers before the second half, but I was too focused on my theory about all three of them being separate manifestations of God that I failed to figure out most of them. So I didn't find it boring at all.

I also enjoyed how the last chapter took place in the Japanese countryside. The similarities with Hinamizawa made it very enjoyable.

I think that focusing so much on what is real and what is a delusions is kinda missing the point. Each protagonist sees the world in a completely different way and that is their "truth". Takuji and Zakuro die believing in crazy bullshit, but it's real for them. Comatose Yuki2 lives a perfect life surrounded by waifus in DtRH1 and you can choose to never wake up again. I think that's one of the best parts of the novel. I still root for Takuji when he becomes a superhuman and beats the shit out of his "bully". I still find Onikakushi scary as shit. If you ignore the truth and put yourself in the character's shoes, reality doesn't matter.

The concept of the fragments in Higurashi and Umineko is a really fascinating way of explaining parallel universes. And it kinda ties into some of the philosophy concepts that Subahibi deals with, if only barely. A human in the WTC universe can walk to the end of the Earth, to the end of the universe even, but he'll never find out what's "outside of the world". The universe is infinite and has no end. And yet, this infinite world is contained within one of the quadrillion fragments that these so-called "witches" play around with and can hold in their hands. Mindblowing.

In Watanagashi, did Mion know that Keiichi wasn't fooled by her pretending to be Shion? If so, why did she seem sad after he gave her the candies while returning the lunch box, and clarifying that they were for 'Shion'?
Why does Mion have copies of her sister's clothes?

She's an okay character, but doesn't deserve to have so many arcs devoted to her while the main cast gets ignored.

Probably reminded her of the fact that her crush is a dumbass who can't actually tell the sisters apart and that that's the only reason he didn't buy the act.

>That said, I really enjoyed the second half too. In fact, Jabberwocky 1 is my favorite chapter. I really like Tomosane as a protagonist and Hasaki is the cutest imouto I've ever seen. Once again, I have to congratulate SCAぢ for not giving a fuck about breaking taboos and doing whatever he wanted with the story. The idea of Tomosane finding meaning in his life by having an incestuous relationship with his traumatized loli sister is exactly what many of us would consider a wonderful everyday. It's far from a healthy relationship, but it's still beautiful.
What taboo. It's a VN, that's normal in VN.
