bewilderment

man what



I read Umineko and after the first few bits (maybe all of 1-4) I did the rest playing the game and then 'reading along' with the archived LP thread at the same time.

I think my expectations for it were raised a bit too high because while the concepts and characters are fun, the prose isn't great and a whole lot of concepts and scenes drag. Still, reading it 'along' with the thread was fun, and seeing some people get proven right.

Reading the whole thing at once with focused readers certainly seemed to go better than the people waiting 6 months in-between episodes with fan theories constantly throwing off the trail.

Spoilers for ep7 end in relation to Rockman's questions (do not read this if you are Rockman):
The 'Illusions to Illusions' scene at the end of ep7 is pretty interesting in how it answers most of these, and ZiegeDame did a good post explaining the meaning of each of the exchanges. Definitely a highlight both of the game and of reading that LP.
