Discovered this LP a few days ago, binge read it and I was reminded of the fact that I got like, to episode 6 or 7 before I just lost momentum.

:allears: Rediscovering Umineko was/is real fun.

Seconding Viola by the way, the sudden shift from Napstablook to Beato was super jarring.

I super don't remember if this was in like, the original bubble people version of Umineko. Am I just forgetful, or is this a legit new addition? :saddowns:

... Rosa has a firearm. If she can't kick the door down because of gohdas superior strength, she can shoot him through it. Then she can kill Shannon and George.

So what, then, are George and Maria doing during my hypothetical version?

Well, George is probably busy being dead.

Heavy objection. Assuming that the Golden Land is exactly what it is at face value (also assuming that it even exists), i.e., Heaven, where everyone's happy and all things are good, and so on, then all the kids deserve Heaven. Sure, they're a little lovely/weird, but that shouldn't be a bar, since being lovely and weird is all they've known due to their parents.

Does anyone know if there are particularly famous or interesting rivers in Shandong, Taiwan, or Kwantung? (If we're talking about maps, it seems more likely to be an actual river.)

I don't know about famous or interesting, but I remembered something my mom once said kinda in passing about Taiwan, so I went here and tried to find the river she was talking about. I ended up here. and this place is called out as being literally named "freshwater river." Granted, I don't think Kinzo accounted for Wikipedia, but... :v:

Either way, I got fuckin' nothing because this doesn't make any sense to me. Maybe someone else can pick up off from here?

...Is Battler magic?

Battler is magic, but as witches don't exist, he must be something else. I am pretty fond of the theory in this thread that says all the Rokkenjima murders were caused by a unicorn. Maybe he's a unicorn.

Everybody who calls themselves furniture has shown supernatural powers. No, everybody but Genji, I think. We even just got a line that implied that Kanon wasn't human, which would mess up several red text assumptions. Could be a difficulty in the translation, of course.

a) Genji has supernatural powers, I may be misremembering (and it might just be Ronove, but I think he did his thing by just snapping his fingers and having someone (likely Genji) just fall over like their puppet strings were cut) but he kills either Shannon or Kanon in a previous episode by placing his hand over their neck and then using furniture wizard powers to puncture it, to give them a quick and dignified death and to avoid them getting hit with the Beato train.

b) "Furniture" don't see themselves as "human".

It is very real.



This move is hilarious because you can use it against Ronove, and if my recollection is correct, Battler is horrified.

Battler's sin is described as a "cog."

So it's likely not the sole cause of these events, but simply one of many issues that lead to this.

Battler's sin is liking steampunk.
