Goddamn that is a ton of text. Also a lot of ellipses. Is this common in visual novels (although this is more of a 'kinetic' novel?) or is this just normal for Japanese literature?

Are you going to transcribe every single thing said in this game? I hope not, that sounds like a really tiring thing to do :ohdear:

I am interested in seeing if the infamous Umineko really deserves its fame for allegedly trolling its readers.

A brief explanation of the titles. Umineko's translates to When The Seacats Cry, and Higurashi was When The Cicadas Cry. Generally, the titular animal crying is an indication of Bad poo poo.

Wait, Seacats :confused:

I thought it was "seagulls".

Good god, this is beyond abuse.

I really like the kind relationship between the cousins, but I feel like there's something wrong with Maria. She just felt off, to me. Maybe I just suspicious towards young girls with that kind of clothes.

Natsuhi's face when she admonished Shannon was just great. I imagine if she broke down later in the game (if this game had people breaking down) she would have plenty of that expression.

Just to confirm, there is no choice at all for this game, right? There is only one path?
