"APGNation: The character of Sayo Yasuda in Umineko is interesting. What were your thoughts in Sayo’s creation? Additionally, what were your thoughts on her expansion in the Umineko manga?

Ryukishi07: The secret of the character of Sayo is the core of Umineko’s story, so her inner workings and development were designed carefully and with the utmost complexity.
In the original version, in order to leave room for imagination for the reader to solve the mystery, I chose not to draw Sayo’s secrets in great detail (of course, it’s still possible to grasp, but I didn’t show things in a way where everyone would get it.)
With the manga version of Umineko, however, we considered the work to be a “period” to the “sentence” that is the world of Umineko.
Because of this, when I met with Natsumi-sensei [Kei Natsumi, the artist of the manga adaptation of Umineko’s eighth episode], I asked her to show all the secrets in a way that can easily be understood by anyone.
Thus, all of the episode of Sayo that appeared in the EP8 manga is the official answer to the world of Umineko.
By no means is the manga version a individual interpretation. It is an official answer from me, Ryukishi07."

I don't know.

After Umineko ,it feels like simultaneously everything is possible and nothing is. You can't go crazier than Umineko. You can't play with metafiction worse than Umineko does.

If Ryukishi wanted to surprise us, I think he should do zero metafiction in WTC 5. But then, what would he do instead?

Also, what would the genre of WTC 5 be? Higurashi is horror. Umineko is mystery.

>>17397392
That's not what I was referring to. Ryukishi has a habit of putting child abuse in most if not all of his works to some extent. It's similar to his tendency to go on tangents about stuff like politics, economics, or culture. It's just something he often writes about. And it's not always there to be creepy or for shock value. Rosa and Maria's relationship for example was one of the most realistic depictions of abuse I've seen in fiction.

>> No.17397542

>>17397424
Sorry, I didn't mean to be harsh, and I think the same as you about Maria and her mother heartbreaking relationship. It just that any kind of cruelty towards children is unbearable for me, makes me somewhat anxious. He's really obsessed with that topic in particular. Also it's not a secret Ryukishi is a lolicon, and excuse me for saying it, but that's makes it more unseting and more difficult to think that he doesn't have some ulterior motives behind, nevermind how well might be depicted.

mind, it's boring.

Actually, Ryukishi is a oppai lover at heart. See battler but also the huge cast of girls with cup size ranging from D cup to F-H.
This trend is also quite noticeable with Rose Guns Days.

I'm not that familiar with Rewrite, other than the fact that Ryukishi did one of the routes. Did he continue his usual trend there?

>> No.17398265

>>17398247
Pretty much, although the highlight with Lucia's route is that it is the most romantic one of the bunch. I was quite surprised because the romance there felt like your usual galge/eroge to the point it could induce diabete as Lucia is a "old tsundere" (meaning she doesn't go back and forth and once she is in here dere side, it is borderline criminal).
Although yeah, the creep mystery stuff is still present for the early part of the route, so there was no way for anyone used to Ryukishi to not recognize him (Key didn't disclose which scenarist wrote which route until few weeks after the game release).

But yeah, breast rubbing mentions and all.

Game at large is pretty good, very not-key like (so people harping KEYAIDS can give it a try), although Ryukishi influence is mostly regarding Lucia and her route. It is mostly Romeo Tanaka and Tonokawa.

All men love big boobs. Most guys I've been somewhat romantically involved with have been obsessed with boobs as well. I also have spoken with some lolicons on this website who have no problems with them either. I'm not saying that just because Ryukishi, or anyone, likes pedoshit means they're just going to go for that.
I just dislike it, that's all. I'm not throwing other implications or going further with the subject. I don't like it, he might like it, I don't care. I dislike a few parts of him, still like him a lot. Let's stop now.

I actually meant to say about clues and mystery plot related content.

The info and hints are all over the VN, the Manga only either extended the scenes answering explicitly most of the stuff, or actually added new relevant content that further expands what was already determined in the VN.

No worries, all that I'm saying is that, regardless of the tweaks (and bittersweet fanservice, like Ange in Battler's grave) and extensions, the VN provided everything from start to finish.

It's kinda bothering for me when people sound like "the manga has all the rest, as the VN did not"... though that probably wasn't your intention, I think?

Nah, I digress. In any case, I really loved Chiru's manga as a whole, besides preferring the VN approach of leading the reader to discover the answers by themselves.

So what's the ZTS track ranking for /seacats/?
After all those years, I'm settling with this:

1) LastEndConductor (absolutely fitting for the last boss and conclusion of the series)
2) Dreamenddischarger (hype train)
3) The executioner (anathema of destruction)
4) Goldenslaughterer (shit has hit the fan)
5) Worldenddominator (Beato in action)
6) Resurectedreplayer (last chance for any reasoning)
7) Miragecoordinator (Mastermind move)
8) Liberatedliberator (Night club party)

Mirage was only effective for episode 3 to me, then it is practically Lambda theme left and right. But I think Liberatedliberator is really the one track that sounds really out of place in umineko.

Sayo was retarded for being so dramatic about it when she could just have given him a call, but Battler was pretty retarded to instantly accept getting cucked by George without saying a single word to Shannon when he finally got back.

I'm watching him, but he seems more and more a faggot by the day. It is infuriating because he is actually thinking and very close to the truth on several points, closer than Narnith ever was, but then he rants for ten minutes on how Jessica is a great character, how Kanon should die in hell for letting her down, how Maria is annoying, how Beatrice is a bitch, etc. He's the worst type of goat.

>>17413859
He'll probably start to come around to Maria in episode 4, but I agree it will be painful before then. A lot of people have this reaction to Maria. Only reason Narnith didn't is because Maria reminded him of himself.

Beatrice it might take that long too now that I think about it, he is going to be really pissed after the "betrayal' in ep3.

I kinda hope ep3 puts some thorns in his whole Kanon did it theory. Not only is he too close but it's making him see Kanon in that bad light.

>Only reason Narnith didn't is because Maria reminded him of himself.

Narnith always thought before actually talking. He put a great care into understanding the characters, and while he sometimes ranted, it was always good natured.

In comparison, Newt just seems to have a great difficulty understanding basic people traits. I watched his Higurashi videos for my information, and he is almost autistically unable to understand human subtleties. He didn't "get" Satoko in Tatarigoroshi-hen. It's almost comical to watch. He just couldn't understand Satoko and simply gave up after a while.

Umineko has some pretty deep characters with complex interactions, and I think he'll probably get lost somewhere along the way.

I think Rika is the only flat girl he's ever drawn. All the Higanbana lolis seem to have cute preteen tits like Satoko. Ryukishi definitely has a boob fetish.

>>17413257
The Rika we "play" as in the human world has been trapped for 100 years, but that's only because she can't remember everything. She went through a lot of traumatizing crap that is best forgotten and many repeated events that merge together into one in her memory.

When she temporarily merges with Bernkastel in the meta after each death, she is free from the limits of the human brain and can remember clearly everything she went through, which is A LOT more than 100 years.

For those who know Japanese... I've been trying to learn it for a while so I can read eventually read Higurashi in its original language. I have some questions.

Is it true that the kanji for vagina 膣 (ちつ) is formed by the radicals ⺼ (flesh/meat, radicalized form of 肉), 穴 (hole) and 至 (climax)? Climax flesh hole. Japanese is such a perverted language.

Also, what's the deal with the verb 好き (to like). Why does the kanji use the "woman" and "child" radicals? Does it have something to do with lolis being inherently likable? Seriously, what's the deal with this kanji? Why is a character that basically means "female child" used for that verb?

I cant believe you're such a goat anon-kun. Seriously. Did you stop thinking always through episode 1?

>Ikuko is rich. Yasu is rich.
>Ikuko loves detective novels. Yasu loves detective novels.
>Ikuko's past is weird and uncertain, and her interactions with Battler are under another constant layer of weird. She's trolling him continuously while trying to make him remember.
>In the tea party of EP8, Ikuko's true age is either implied to be young, or a timeless witch. Do you fucking believe in magic you moron? Fucking goat I swear to god.
>Ikuko wrote EP 3/4 before Battler could remember. EP 3/4 uses Yasu extensively. Where did she get that info from? Magic? You dumbass.
>Ikuko's fucking name mean 'raised child'. It's in the name you absolute doubleplus shitter.
>Ikuko "found" the bottle containing the confession of the Golden Witch in the manga. Sure. By magic I guess?

There's a ton of other small clues littered everywhere. Beatrice effectively died on on that boat along with Battler's memory, but Yasu continued on under another personality. It's the final fuck you mystery of Umineko, one goats such as yourself can't even grasp.

Instead of whining about people not experiencing things the way you believe they ought to, you really need to step back and ask yourself whether you aren't being unreasonable.

With a massive, intentionally deceptive work of fiction like Umineko most people will never experience it in the way you think it was intended the first time through, because they'll be unwilling to engage in certain aspects emotionally, have a blind spot for characters that turn out to be more important than they initially seem, or because there's some other incompatibility between their thought process and the one needed to solve the mystery "the right way".

Also, someone who isn't that bright obviously isn't going to come up with any worthwhile theories even if they try, and if two people are doing a let's play together they're obviously going to turn it into more of a fun get-together and use the story primarily as a vehicle for that.

R That’s right… Well the discussion is getting a little out of hand, but in the case of the Umineko anime and PS3 version I did not tell Battler’s voice actor Ono Daisuke or even Shannon’s voice actress Miss Kugimiya the truth. When we did the scene where he said the line „I will come for you on a white horse!“ I said „If he’s killed now, it’s his fault!“ and Mr. Ono replied with a simple „Why that?“ *laugh*.

K Just like Battler. He doesn’t notice his own sin *laugh*.

R That’s why I didn’t tell them anything. But to Miss Ohara who played the role of Beatrice I told the whole truth, so she would know what lies behind her words and so she could base her acting on that knowledge. That is why both Battler and Beatrice deliver such a solid performance. And the reason for not letting Miss Kugimiya know anything, was because the Shannon personality herself was not the culprit.

No. She could have easily smuggled out ton of gold before the event.

We have a little more than that.

Like the fucking name of Ikuko, which is incredibly meaningful. Or the fact that she knew about Yasu before Tohya/Battler knew about it. Or the fact that she, magically, got the confession of the Golden Witch bottle. Or the fact that she is magically young.

So much magic. It is boggling the mind how anons are like 'MAGIC DON'T EXIST FAGGOT' for like 7 episodes and when episode 8 says 'Ikuko is a witch, don't think about it', anons are falling for it.

Between the name, the trolling, the habits, the money, the battler fixation, the too much knowledge, the youth? There is only one human that has all of this.

Also, everyone in universe that reads EP 3/4 agrees that is has some indefinable resemblance to the EP 1/2 (who were written by Yasu).

Theory 1: A rich connoisseur of detective novels with a fixation on Battler wrote EP 1/2, died, and then another rich connoisseur of detective novels with the same knowledge as the first rich connoisseur of detective novels and the same fixation wrote EP 3/4 using knowledge she magically summoned from the astral seas.
