I don't understand this. Chapter 0 clearly says Showa 58, which is 1983, so does that mean only the part with Miyo is in 1983 and the rest is in 2016? But she's talking to NotRika in chapter 0, so that doesn't make any sense. And in chapter 0 they talk about the phone lines being cut, but why would that matter if they have cell phones? I'm confused

Those backgrounds are either traced photographs or CG, right? At least they look like they are. In a way I guess that ties pretty well into Higurashi and Umineko, since they used photographs for backgrounds as well

Is this really how tabasco is supposed to look? The Onikakushi manga has good art in general, but I always thought this part looked a bit too much like actual blood. But then again, I'm not really sure how else they would do it, without being too obvious

Well, yeah, but most fanart not interprets her as preteen or around there, ever since Alchemist and DEEN made her look like that.
Also, loli is really just a young girl-like attitude/figure, which is pretty much what Bernkastel was made to look like. At least in DEEN and Alchemist's adaptions.

The easiest way to explain it is that the accomplices in those two games were just pretending that people had died, to fuck with Natsuhi/Erika. But then Yasu/Erika killed them for real afterwards, without anyone else knowing

That's why Battler is an accomplice, even though he would obviously never agree to being involved with killing anyone

well Rudolf was a shitty husband and a rather bad dad to Battler, but at least he seemed to be a pretty OK dad to Ange. Kinzo wasn't a decent father to anyone. And Rudolf never showed any unhealthy interest for his own daughter.
Both Kinzo and Rudolf killed lots of people for the gold.

Kinzo fucked his daughter and then forced the incest child onto one of his sons' wife.
Then she threw it off a cliff. Then ignored the child until a few hours before his death.
Don't forget cheating on his own wife with his mistress AND their daughter.
And the 900 tons of explosives hidden under the island.

On the other hand, Rudolf switched around his two girlfriends' babies at birth. He gave his wife's miscarriage to his lover, and the lover's child to his wife. But, after that, Rudolf was a decent father who cared for both of his children, Battler and Ange, while Kinzo abused his children.
Hard choice, to be honest familia

I've already accepted that Sayo Yasuda is a boy. But why does everyone assume that Lion is the same gender as Yasu? Lion's alternate universe already has a few differences. Natsuhi accepts the child, Kinzo lives longer, Battler never returns, etc. And according to the manga, Lion doesn't even have the same appearance as Yasu. So why does everyone assume that they're the same gender?

If you want to go with official explanations, the tweet about gender equality pretty much spells it out.

In-universe, there's no reason for him to be a different gender since he's the exact same person. An in-game explanation is kind of pointless though since he doesn't even exist--unless you've made the mistake of accepting witches and fragments as real.

I am taking the heart into account when I say Yasu is a boy.

Yasu is a boy who thinks that he is a girl at first, then later knows hes a boy and just wants to be a girl. If you were trying to argue that the personalities of Shannon and Beatrice were female that I'd agree with, but biologically Yasu is male, and thats pretty much the bottom line.

There were several incarnations. Basic premise is that Jessica is either Beatrice, the culprit, or both.

Nanjo's entry explains pretty much everything. It says that he would have survived if more time had passed, which pretty much confirms the theory that Yasu didn't know Eva solved the epitaph. If more time had passed, she would have found out, and wouldn't have killed him

No, it means he was unlucky and got killed in the end.

''he would have returned'' means he would have returned back from the island. Nothing more. Not that he would have survived he wounds.

I don't see anything that says that shows that Yasu could have known about the epitaph being solved after Nanjo's death. Just as there's no evidence that Yasu didn't know that the Epitaph was solved.
>muh Yasu isn't omniscient

An alternative explanation is still a 3rd party murder, other than Yasu, such as George or Kyrie, whichever theory you believe in. He was going to survive and got killed, the end.

Also, to expand since I think I poorly explained it, Nanjo would have survived just a bit longer, if the killer was either George or Kyrie, as both had been wounded. Two possible theories (Rosatrice, and Kyrie being the one who killed everyone in ep 3) easily fit the description presented. Either George was bleeding to death after being shot by Nanjo, or Kyrie, who was also bleeding to death after being shot by Eva. Though I prefer the cynical theory that Eva had nothing to do with the murder of Rudolf and Kyrie and it's Hideoyoshi who defended himself and shot both of them. It's funnier that way.

So, again, had Nanjo gotten a bit luckier, George or Kyrie would have died of blood loss, as confirmed in red later by Beatrice, since they were on the verge of dying.

This does not prove that Yasu did not know about the Epitaph being solved.

>>14987913
There is no evidence that Yasu ever found out that the Epitaph got solved. There is equally no evidence to suggest that Yasu did not know from the start that Eva solved the Epitaph and found the gold with Rosa.

>>14987913
No, he would have been saved with Eva and Jessica.
The plot hole is that the red states that once the Epitaph is solved, the murders done by Beatrice ends. People try to get around it saying it was a different persona, Yasu didn't know about the Epitaph being solve, etc. But the fact stills stands that the red is a promise, solve the Epitaph, and no more murders by Beatrice.
This is why it still makes no sense for Yasu to kill Nanjo without going ''muh omniscience'' bullshit, as though Yasu couldn't monitor the only small house where everyone was hiding and didn't notice two potential victims leaving alone one by one.

>>14987976
I miswrote that. The red only states people being dead. Not when they died.

For example, the events show that Hideoyoshi, Eva and Kyrie were found dead but they aren't confirmed dead on the spot. Beatrice states in red that all three people are dead. You make the assumption that all three are dead at the moment that they were found, since you trust the red, but it doesn't guarantee that all three had died at that time, only that they were shot.
There's nothing stating that someone, say Kyrie, could have survived her gunwounds and then stumbled upon Nanjo, killed them walked away then died of blood loss. The red was done at the end of the game, so, by that point, Kyrie is considered dead in red. Battler never examines the bodies and they cannot be considered dead, only Nanjo checked their bodies and he could have lied or been wrong.
Rosatrice proposes a similar proposition concerning George, that he was waiting for Shannon to be revived, got furious at Nanjo who defended himself but didn't kill him. So George woke up later, found Nanjo, killed him and then died. Thus, the red confirmed that George died but not when he died.

This is basically how you get around the ep 3 red web. The only possible candidates of who killed Nanjo are Yasu, Kyrie and George.
Concerning Yasu, had Yasu 'known' about the Epitaph being solved a bit sooner, Nanjo would have been alive. Concerning George and Kyrie, had either died of their wounds earlier, Nanjo would have been alive.

This does not confirm that Yasu had not known about the epitaph being solved.

>>14987994
>Ok, so you can just make things up.
Just like you can make things up like Yasu not noticing Eva and Rosa leaving the guest house.
Not much is known about what happened in ep 3, so it really is up to your interpretation.

No, it's a plot hole because Yasu shouldn't have ever been allowed narratively to kill Nanjo, nor does she have a reason. You have to bullshit by saying Yasu didn't know about the Epitaph being solved somehow when Beatrice confirms it in red.

>I don't care about your personal interpretation
See image >>14988009
It's possible to show a different truth by using different interpretation. Just because you put your fingers in your ears doesn't mean it's not a red truth.
The authenticity of Yasu being allowed to kill Nanjo, when the red explicitly states that it's impossible is a plot hole.

I've seen it disputed from all side, that Yasu isn't omniscient, that Yasu is a separate entity that somehow is above the meta and meta-Beatrice, that it doesn't matter and that Yasu just wanted to kill for fun to be with Jessica because fuck logic.

Again, this >>14987882 saying that Nanjo would have survived had more time passed does not prove that Yasu solved the epitaph. The plot hole is still present.

If it sounds like I'm saying that there isn't a plot hole, you are mistaken, I am simply laying out all the plausible theories. If you accept one of them, good for you, I don't care. Rosatrice, Shkannon, theory theories theories. All fun and games. Make up your own mind on what happened, either through me, discussion or the manga.

But I'd still argue that it wouldn't count if she didn't know. She doesn't directly say that the killing will stop, just that she will keep the promise. My point is that she can't necessarily keep it if she doesn't know that the conditions for it have been fulfilled

Juju, you truly don't understand human arrogance concerning discerning theories. People are truly biased and ignorant concerning alternative viewpoints. We have this naive feeling of wanting to be optimistic, that we can change the mind of someone else, simply by show them they're wrong, make them see your side of things. But more often than not, the other side doesn't want to hear it.
The history of scientific progress is very similar. It's filled with a ridiculous amount of biased condescension, rejection of opposite ideas and theories until it's proven right, even the smartest of men in human history have been unable to get out of this biased view. It's pathetic and sad, and the fact that no one can get beyond this is sadder. There's a weird sense of smugness.
This is the true message of Umineko, in my opinion. We search for the truth, but we're so biased and arrogant that we're unable to accept opposite viewpoints and must look down and ridicule others.

Just look at that arrogance and distaste at the mere mention of my personal interpretation. >>14988024 He doesn't care, he just wants to prove me wrong, mixed in with an optimistic and naive sense of possibly changing my mind. But this could be, of course, blind projection on my part.

But sometimes, even through that cynical viewpoint, progress and understanding can be made. People aren't complete fools, ignorant and refuse complete evidence.
I'd like to think people are better than that.

>>14988087
Why wouldn't it count? It's stated in red. Does the fact that Yasu didn't know matter? This raises so many question and why I think it's a plot hole.
Narratively, if Yasu didn't know about it, how could it be said in red that Beatrice keeps her promise that if the Epitaph is solve, the murders end? How can truth not be truth?

Meta-Beatrice is the embodiment of the rules and game on the island. If she says in red that the game ends when the Epitaph is solved, it makes it so. Unless directly mentioned that there are secondary conditions.
Another point to bring up is is the Knox 8th, that all clues must be presented. What clue is there that conditions have to be met for the red not to apply?
This ''condition'' is going to be, of course, that the family members ''had' to tell everyone that they found the gold and only then would the murders end. But where is that mentioned by Beatrice or a rule? The rule is simply to solve the Epitaph and the murders by Beatrice end. That's it.

This ''conditions'' bullshit is just a way to keep the same position by weaseling out of the answer.
It's a plot hole. Solve the Epitaph, and the game ends. It's that simple. In ep 3, the game ended, Yasu shouldn't have killed Nanjo.

There's also the bullshit someone might bring up criticizing the red, saying that the red only says that she fulfills that promise, not the entirety of said promise. Or some other bullshit to get out of the red truth.

Truth brings a greater understanding of the world around us. The explanation of causality, although messy, has a greater benefit than accepting nihilism or denying cause and effect correlation. The journey to finding the truth being more important than the destination itself, but never accepting that the destination itself is meaningless?
Just because humans are flawed in their pursuit of the truth and their view of the truth does not make the pursuit invalid in of itself. To me, it just means that humans are flawed idiots.

I'm always reminded of that proverb where a bunch of people look into a vase through a small holes under different angle. All of them see something different but neither is wrong. And everyone claims that their view is accurate and that everyone else's is wrong. That, to me, is the core understanding of human nature. Different interpretation of the same source we call life, arguing over the same damn thing, killing each other and arguing endlessly over it.
Heh, now that I think about it, I guess that's what Umineko is about. Except we're reading what people wrote when they saw through the small hole of the vase.

Is that quote from Umineko or did you make it up?

>>14988158
Yes, and your interpretation that the manga is more accurate than my interpretation is perfectly valid. Sorry if I misunderstood you, I assumed I couldn't have personal interpretation, as you didn't care for it. Or maybe I stupidly correlated not caring with not being allowed to have an interpretation.

I still think that it's a plot hole, unless it was George or Kyrie that killed Nanjo not Yasu. But that's my interpretation. Yours is that the manga tells the truth completely without fault. Without red herrings or falsehoods.
Or perhaps, you're missing a small piece of a puzzle, that you think that small fragment of a page, that Nanjo was killed by Yasu to be the only part where the manga lies. As you say, if it's all truth, why would there be one small lie? A chessboard switching could provide answer perhaps, who knows.

Ok so I had a theory about Ep3 that might explain why Yasu keeps killing.

What if Eva never actually did solve the epitaph? Was it ever stated in red that she actually did? Maybe instead she was just bribed by Yasu and she agreed to kill to complete the ritual? This page in Ep7 saying they were bribed confused me but I think my theory would explain it. Also as shown in Ep1 and Ep4 Yasu has no problem killing after the ritual is over so there's nothing wrong with killing George and Nanjo

Still there are a couple of things it doesn't explain. Why did only Eva survive in the end? Maybe Yasu failed in killing her and she escaped, but how did she know about kuwadorian? It still doesn't explain the 07151129 written on the wall. Also what about that scene where Rosa met Eva at the gold pile? Did that even happen?

>what if NOTHING actually happened?
This image is you. You obviously can't trust anything that isn't red, but at the same time, you need to trust something. You have to put *some* measure of trust. The keyword being some, which people always equate that to basically trusting literally everything. Nor am I implying that everything should be doubted. Equality of duality creates stability. Absolutes on both ends are unhealthy, and absolute skepticism and absolute trust should be seen as such.
As for whether or not Eva solved the Epitaph, she likely got the ring immediately after finding the gold, as it's shown in ep 3. In ep 1 and ep 4, killings continue because the epitaph was not solved. You are confusing the ritual with the epitaph. Killings only stop for Beatrice, not for the entire game.

See, for example, two can play the game of the whole ''where does it say in red that'' when I could ask ''where does it say in red that Eva and Hideoyoshi were bribed? I personally think that everything that isn't meta happened in ep 3 except for Eva being with Hideoyoshi.
Also, do not equate ep 3 to be Prime. It only shows a slight truth of what happened on Prime but not its entirety. And I don't mean that Kyrie killed everyone, the end, sort of truth either.

Narratively, I think most things shown in ep 3 are truthful to a certain degree. Ep1 was mostly true narratively except for when Kinzo was around, but it was not caused by magic. Ep 2 adds a big more untruthfulness, but only when the meta is involved. The same is true for Ep 3 but more cannot be trusted. Ep 4 is where nothing happened, literally.

The plot hole, to me, is a possible step to see a large theme of Umineko, which is why I don't mind discussing it.

that's not what I'm saying you idiot

My understanding of the rules is that a scene can be fantasy if it involves the culprits/accomplices or someone is about to die, which means the Eva finding the gold scene could be fantasy if Eva was an accomplice all along (but that doesn't explain the Rosa + Eva seeing the gold which is why I brought it up)

Also about the ring, do we even know if Eva had it in EP3? I don't remember if it showed her having it or if there was a red truth about it. I know she had it in the real world but we all know EP7 tea party is was really happened and EP3 was just a forgery.

>you need to trust something
In this case I'm just putting my trust into the EP7 statements instead of what Eva claims happened. And I'm putting trust into Beatrice's word that she would stop the killing after the epitaph is solved. (I honestly have a hard time believing she didn't know it was solved and found out later)

Not that I think this is really what happened, I'm just thinking up alternate theories to try and explain Yasu's actions in EP3, which is one of the only parts of umineko I just can't think up a good explanation to.

I had another theory that maybe Yasu is acting differently to all the other games because EP3 was written by Tohya and maybe he didn't have a complete understanding of Yasu's motives yet? Still that's probably just me overthinking it and there's probably even some red that contradicts it that I'm forgetting.

>but that doesn't explain the Rosa + Eva seeing the gold which is why I brought it up
The only explanation I can think of for that is that Rosa could have been an accomplice as well, and that none of that really happened, kind of like in Episode 4. And then Eva killed her afterwards anyway, because she's a cunt

That's kind of a stretch though

Anyone else read RGD? It's a bundle of fun. Season 3 might be up there with ep 6 of Higurashi and ep 5 of Umineko.
Jewish Chinese culture warfare keikaku shenanigans was ridiculously good. Though I wish that the whole thing wasn't centered around one move. RGD was so anti-nationalist despite Japan being the underdog that it felt weird cheering for them to win.
The ending was rushed shit, though Ryukishi was sick for a few weeks so I guess it's understandable?

Wang was such a good fucking villain. I love him so much. His bullshit of going from mockingly joking to dead serious at the drop of a hat was great. You really couldn't get a good feel for the guy and it was great. I think his best moment was the image you posted, where he tells that the Japanese will gladly eat shitty Chinese toxic food because they're without backbones and then the businessman thank him for it. It was surreal. Also that part during the Ocean 11 part where he just tells Hotarubi ''me, you, in my room, in an hour''. Ryukishi is usually very touchy about mentioning sex but goddamn was that so blatant and despicable. I loved it.

Ryukishi also drew Wang himself, which is pretty cool.

>Slow start but after that the way it kept building up with the antagonists kept me on edge.
Yeah, it has a slow start, but like I say, when the mini boss is defeated and the first 'real boss' shows up, it gets good. RGD is absolutely worth reading for the villains alone.

I honestly still can't stop crying while listening to that music. I can literally see Gabriel's smug ass face smirking at me through the music itself.
I have very strong feelings for Rika and my imouto, so watching Stella die was like being stabbed twice at the same time. Season 4 was like watching a massacre of imoutos and it was horrible to watch. The pudding scene was such a low blow. I don't think I've ever screamed that hard since ep 3 of Umineko.

I also just lost my mind when pic related happen. The only thing I could think was ''Oh, fuck. Nononononono. FUCK FUCK FUCK.''
You could really feel Leo's disappointment when he came back and saw that Richard could easy do actual threats when he couldn't do it at the beginning of the story.

Ryukishi's villains are very memorable and entertaining, even when they're exceedingly cruel. Worth it.

Godammit just when I thought the worst was starting to pass, he threw that at me. Even after losing his arm, I thought he really would still have a second chance at life when it was all over. And then Gabriel had to pull that before I could relax again. Even when he did meet his end, it was at the cost of whatever happened to Ange. It being vague only made me assume the worst and left me uneasy.

It's really the fact that Ryukishi gives you hope, a very small amount and then just shoves it in your face while laughing at you. And you just can't stop crying. All while Axelle-ratio plays.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k1GJ6b3yczE

It's just too cruel.

And it's not only that it was cruel, but the way it happened. The kid just died out of fucking nowhere, with bubbles foaming out of his mouth, mixed in with blood, as he's held by Richard and Keith.

You think that the worst might have been prevented and then BAM, out of fucking nowhere. It really reminds of that CHOMP scene from Muv-Luv.

I think it's because it's different from his usual work. No supernatural elements and if someone dies they're gone for good and won't be showing up in the next episode where everything will reset.
In the earlier episodes, you have everyone surviving with few casualties with half of the 1st episode having a very light tone and Leo being untouchable. Even Caleb and Miguel are revealed to still be alive. But once one of them dies followed by another and then another, it hits you that any one of them could be next.

>Even Caleb and Miguel are revealed to still be alive.

I really felt that both of them should have actually died. I understand narratively that both had to live, since Ryukishi likes to remain optimistic despite being a cynical sadistic bastard, and to make Rose alive at the end, but seeing them fight in the fight battle was really bullshit. Not having him would have made things harder for Rose's team, an almost fair fight imo. At least make it so that Caleb is the only one who dies or something. I really felt he shouldn't have returned in the story, along with Amanda. She too should have died. You played the wrong team, you're dead. This is arguably one of his biggest strength and flaw. He understands that being optimistic resonates more with his readers rather than being cynical or giving a downer ending, (see Higurashi) but when you're too optimistic, it comes off as both naive and disingenuous (see Higanbana Second Night with the demon story)
I was honestly expecting Miguel to survive though, go do insane murder shit after being released by Caleb during his final moments. Instead, Miguel just calmly stays with him hidden? That's just bullshit to me. It would have been better, imo, if Caleb was killed and Rose actually ended up dying at the end. Following through with what she did to him at the end of Season 1.

I was also expecting literally EVERYONE to die by the end or something. A literal complete bloodbath. It somewhat got there but I didn't get the bloodbath I was expecting. I'm not sure if I should blame it on Ryukishi being sick and being out of time or him being too optimistic.

>>14998346
>if you feel something for them
That was another big problem with RGD. Although the villains were great, the main cast was more meh overall, with the exception of The Wandering Dogs, but that's only because they got a lot of time in Season 2, and even then, most didn't die by the end and we still don't know what the fuck happened to the survivors. Zel honestly shouldn't have come back in Season 4 but it felt like Ryukishi cornered everyone and didn't know how to get out with only Leo.
A good example of the cast being mostly meh is that strong guy (forgot his name) being mostly irrelevant in S2 to S4 and only being brought up a bit by the end. Ryukishi tries to give him some characterization, saying he's too shy around women but I felt it was a little too late for that when he turned with Richard. The murder of Tomitake was brutal as fuck though.
That Lambda girl was also pretty absent for most of it. Like, she bitches she's an idiot near the end then when the plot demands it, she just bullshit that she got money on the side from working hard doing accounting, YAY!
What bullshit.

The only characters I really cared about personally in RGD, other than the villains was possibly Keith, Stella and Richard. The rest were somewhat meh.

I like it that way personally juju. I really find it weird that people, including myself, want to know more about the author to understand more about the work the author makes. As though knowing the past and history of Ryukishi will somehow give a greater insight of his stories.

Did he read too many shoujo stories and understood love? Did he read a lot of romantic novels? Did he read a lot of LNs shit and figured out love? Did he simply read a lot of scientific journals concerning gender roles and figured out love?
With Ryukishi, I think it's all of the above but I just don't fucking know.

He went to art school, dropped out, worked at a clothing company for women's clothing and underwear, worked with social services, released some stories on the side along with some theater plays, released some card games with his brother, and then made Higurashi.

This is basically all that's known about Ryukishi as far as I know. Not knowing more about his personal life creates more intrigue about what sort of stories he'll create.

>>14998394
In one interview, he talked about Akihabara where he released Higurashi and he seemed to know a great deal about it, not to mention all the stuff concerning anime, etc from his works, so yeah, no shit.
And not to mention he lived with his parents for an undetermined amount of time before Higurashi got really big.

I also want to know. I honestly have no clue. Did he have relationships, was he ever in love, etc?
I just don't know.

I've been reading his interviews and I'm not even sure I believe him anymore. In one interview, someone asked him about his method of writing stories, and Ryukishi just says it's like seeing characters like pieces you push a certain way to see how they'll react and it's how he wrote Higurashi overall. But then you reread certain parts of Higurashi, like the USODA scene, and you can tell it was absolutely deliberately written to the very moment of the execution. He puts a lot more thought into his writing than he lets on in his interviews and it's really confusing me.

Or how he says that he cries while writing certain scenes, so that he gets the full emotional impact as the reader. In one way, I can actually believe that, but in another, I think it's complete bullshit. Ryukishi once stated that his personality was similar to K1 (I personally see the schoolboy aspect and the hardworking literate side) and Beatrice (the giggling portion is like K1 but also the sadistic side of Beatrice is very present in his writing). Whenever he writes bullying scenes or sadistic moments, I only see a Beatrice side to Ryukishi but then he wants to also get the most optimistic endings like for Higurashi or that demon story for Higanbana Second Night.

So which one is he? Is he a sadistic bastard or is he the naive optimistic fuck? I just can't place him in a box and it's frustrating me. Most writers, I can easily get a feel for their personality, what they think, trying to emote and what sort of person they are. But with Ryukishi, I just get pure duality.

His vision of love is very simple to me, I never understand what you treat it like some kind revelation. It's the truth, yes, but you don't really need too much to understand all that. Only time and a little of heart. I already thought that way long before reaching ten years. It's common sense, to me.

I don't see his vision of love as being simple. If anything, it's very complex and detailed. Many writers have tried to accurately portray love but very few have tried to explain it. You always get this bullshit of ''love is irrational'' which has some basic truth to it, and you do fully see it played out in Umineko, but it only feels like a surface level explanation. And it's more often boring. Umineko actually gives a large buffet of variations on love. The main point being that people fall in love for selfish reasons but once they become in love, you cannot deny their love, even if the way they found each other is bullshit. It's actually something that is seen across nearly all his stories except RGD, which has personally a more realistic view on people finding love.
In Rewrite, Lucia falls in love with Kotarou because he's the only person who can touch her, something I can relate to honestly, and then loves him one he shows he cares for her.
Tomitake only loves Takano because she's been alone for basically her whole life and uses that to his advantage, and Takano just feels so alone that she falls for any man without anything interesting.
Eva marries to Hideoyoshi to have a child and bare an heir, but then falls in love with him.
George and Jessica fall in 'love' so that they can reaffirm their gender role and not feel lonely.
And probably more I can't remember. Too tired. It's always centered about people lacking something to be in love.

One of the best views on love in this poem.

Love is an illusion, a misunderstanding.
Mutual love is a mutual misunderstanding of being mutually loved.
And engagement is a vow to not wake up for your whole life from that misunderstanding.

It's so cynical it's perfect. But I was once told that I was wrong. That it's actually optimistic. Both sides understand that love is an illusion, so the vow isn't to cynically remain in love but to hold that love truthful. I just don't see how anyone can think of this as anything optimistic.

Children are simplistic at the start of life. Adult are complex. Some people don't lose their inner self, they are still children. I think Ryukishi is like that. He is both cruel and nice, because he's childish. He's just playing with you like a damn fiddle, you dumb dumb.

>nice and cruel
>like a child
Hmmm, you might have a point. Children are asshole, but they are also nice. Featherine does talk about that in ep 6 of Umineko somewhere. About not losing your child side and being able to write extensively, with boundless imagination. It's something I've read many authors write about. Weirdly enough, I was much more of a writer when I was a kid then I am now, so I always assume there's some truth to it.
But childishness? As the reason why he's both optimistic and sadistic? That's a bit too bold for me to accept.

>You just need to blind yourself a little
How can I blind myself from the truth staring me in the face? I very much enjoy life. I'm just weary and cynical of it all.

Nice try but I actually connected the KnK movies to Umineko about a weak ago. I kept bitching, again, how much of a faggot George was, and complained that he looked a lot like that faggot from the KnK movies, Mikiya Kokutou.
I mean, just look at him, he has the same glasses, somewhat the same hairstyle, a completely boring personality (seriously, his imouto fell in love with him because he looked 'determined' one time when they were young, how boring of a personality can you have?) and was just a shitty character.

And then, someone told me that, somehow, George and Mikiya Kokutou have the EXACT same fucking VA.
The realization to have isn't that Shiki is Yasu, but that Shiki is both a male and a female, just like Yasu, and that George is literally a faggot like Mikiya Kokutou.

The origin gave her a reason to, doesn't mean its just an excuse, she couldn't be lying about the origin she was learning magics with Touko and I think you need to understand the origin or something to properly work with the circuits I don't know.

She just eventually clinched to the idea of incest because its a taboo.

There's actually an explanation for that. According to Nasu a persons Origin doesn't take full effect unless that person knows what it is, which she didn't.

If someone doesn't know what their Origin is they'll only be somewhat effected, like falling in love with your brother for instance

>>	Anonymous Wed Mar 30 14:38:41 2016 No.15000739 >>15000725 I'm still skeptical, since she hasn't done anything taboo, even after finding out her Origin. She just has the same mentality to love her brother and nothing else. It really just seems like an poor excuse to push for incest.

No, I'm pretty sure she never found out. At least that's Nasu's explanation for why she's so normal
>"Also, Shiki, who seeks death, has an Origin of Nothingness. Azaka, who struggles to deviate from the norm, has an Origin of Taboo. Although Shiki trod too close and is drawn by that impulse, isn't Azaka still pretty normal? After all, Origin is merely a cause, it is not something that dictates an individual --- provided that the individual does not become aware of it."

I'm too lazy to translate the whole thing but from what I can gather at the bottom,
>２０１６年夏 - Summer of 2016
>AVG - abbreviation for Adventure Game (Visual Novel)
>コミックマーケットにて頒布予定 - Distribution scheduled at Comic Market (Comiket)

Hopefully we're finally getting it soon.

Let's clarify this a bit. The English tagline for the game, as can be seen in the videos from this panel, is "When the 3 worlds become 1, Alice awakens". The Alice in Wonderland thing is not one of the three stories, but I thing it will be what connects them in the end

>>	Anonymous Thu Mar 31 12:44:12 2016 No.15005298 >>15005277 I have a cat that think he's still a kitten and licks everyone. It's nice for the first few seconds but it quickly gets painful.

>>	Anonymous Thu Mar 31 12:45:58 2016 No.15005307 >>15005288 Possibly. I don't think she's been in the Country Girl manga yet though, but it only has 4 chapters so far, so who knows

>>	Anonymous Thu Mar 31 12:54:01 2016 No.15005340 >>15005259 But is it actually Trianthology? The name looks different, assuming the thing at the top is a title

As someone who actually understands the Schrödinger cat I can't help but to get annoyed every time someone mentions that phrase.

It's not supposed to be philosophical, but to actually describe the absurdity of quantum mechanics on how photons affect things at quantum level.

It's become two seperate terms. Philosophy adopted the term as the results of the thought experiment posed an interesting question philosophically, ignoring its purpose in mechanics. I see the philosophical and mechanical definitions to be different things.

What >>15005489 says is not the most accurate way to put it, at least in this context. The truth is that /jp/-/a/-related niches adopted this in a memetic way. It's an "interesting" trope any hack can use to "spice up" their story without much effort. They don't have the first idea of what quantum mechanics is, and they don't care. At this point if you ask a random consumer of these products, they'll most likely have seen it used at least once, but have no idea of what quantum mechanics are.

Kind of how everybody uses the Robin Hood card when talking about somebody stealing from the rich and giving to the poor, when the fact is that what went on in the story was stealing back the taxes that were taken from the commoners.
This has reached a point where such a thing as the "Robin Hood tax" has been proposed. Tell those people what was actually going on in the story of Robin Hood and they won't care, more or less in the same way otaku won't care about the actual relation between Schrödinger cat and quantum mechanics. There's the actual concept, and then the bastardized trope.
