Nice to know.

Just for reference:
>Umineko and Higurashi didn't start picking up until 2.
>Those started getting good around 3-5 usually peaking at 4-6.
>7-8 really just closing loose ends and running on nostalgia of earlier arcs.
>Folks online usually solve it by arc 2-3 but don't get confirmation until 4-5. Only retards don't realize answers by 7-8 and that's why I say it's mostly for nostalgia and finishing the story.
No point in getting into Ciconia if it's still in arc 1 only to get blue balled for 2-3 years.

Previous post was just messing around the real answer is Nasuverse witches don't age but they die when the love or have kids. Not that different from R07's really...

Knox wasn't really against Chinese or Asians per se. For all we know Chinaman might not even have been offensive back in the day of non-PCness.

The "no chinaman" meant mysteries shouldn't have an unexplained, unknown, or not commonly understood shit in it (often in the case back then the orient). Not literally no Chinese people.

R07 completely ignored that because Beatrice (the italian) IS the Chinaman (foreigner) of the story and magic/witches are the (unexplained/unknown bs). R07's promo for Umineko did say Knox/Dine won't save you. Also he did clearly foreshadow Beatrice's Italian roots as well as explain the magic/witches.

OFC by the witch meta canon, Dlanor couldn't use that since witches are literally Chinese men, the game she played wasn't built with that rule in mind (you can think of the other 10 wedges working only because Beato built a mystery that allowed Battler a chance to win and thus said mystery would likely have said rules too), or 34 just put that restriction her.

TL;DR it's up to you to discern for yourself if R07 made a flux pass.

p.s. Only real Chinaman in the story is Kinzo and he's more Taiwanese. Also not a Chinaman so much as a Chinacorpse.
