"The detective has a right to investigate all crime scenes" - is that true of golden age mystery fiction in general? In terms of genre expectations, I mean.

Qrr posted:I would just like to note that I'm very disappointed that Dlanor is so happy to have helped murder 5 people. Why is she even still helping Erika? Isn't she supposed to aid the detective? Dlanor is just the literal embodiment of Knox, which is impartial. I don't think she's particularly "happy" about the murders, she just... gets really excited about her job.

witchcore ricepunk posted:Hahaha I'm OK! Thanks though. It's rare that I get to talk about this kind of thing, so I'm grateful to this story. It's certainly helped me articulate stuff that I haven't considered worthy of putting words to til now.

resurgam40 posted:it'd be fine if they were one offs or one note, but nobody's proved to be that. resurgam I'm laughing, not at you, but the idea that this complaint about Umineko basically boils down to "oh my god, so much character development! too many seemingly gimmicky characters that grow into well-rounded, three-dimensional people! it's too much!" EagerSleeper posted:However, judging by ShKannon's situation, it's possible for multiple characters to be tied to each thing. You can finally have a dissociative mackerel with multiple personalities. You can have as many characters on this one island as the eye can see. You can fit even more on top of that too because vision is a nonobjective perception of reality. Infinite characters. Infinite anime. Infinitely ahahaha'ing. Imagine. I can imagine it and it is GLORIOUS.

Hopeford posted:Please tell me that's not right. I can't be that old. It feels like I was reading this yesterday as it was coming out. It ca-can't be that old. RIGHT. Umineko's 10th anniversary is August 17th, 2017! We should do something to celebrate! I know Mangagamer is releasing hardcopy versions of the Question Arc (on the 18th, weirdly enough).

That is a kickass avatar/text combo. Good job to the witch who did it! witchcore ricepunk posted:Sweet Valley High foresaw S=K Hah, nice. Welcome to the land of seeing seacats everywhere you go. Seriously, nowadays I feel like I relate everything I consume back to Umineko. (Also I follow Shing Yin Kor too! So nice to see a fellow fan.)

This is us, isn't it? Listening to her long, long story, long after she finished telling it. As long as there are people who read Umineko no Naku Koro ni, as long as there are people who understand her, the massive applause will never end. Rest in peace in your cat box, our most beloved witch.

Thank you so much for this LP, Prof. It's been so incredible to follow the discussions and slowly develop a greater understanding of Umineko and well, life. I can't emphasize enough how grateful I am that the magic of this thread exists. You brought together a bunch of people who Umineko touched in so many different ways and I'm so glad that I got to meet all of you <3

Happy birthday, our beloved witch, Beatrice. Completing this thread, full of people trying to understand and reach her, is probably one of the best presents she could receive. Thank you again prof for planning this out so perfectly.
