Battler has a surprisingly good evil laugh.

Battler is a good boy.

I've heard it said before that Ryukishi is apparently christian. Is there any truth to this, or is it just a mistaken rumor?

Posting best girl

>>17539739
Might be a bit of a stretch, but was Featherine inspired by Glinda from the Oz series?

Glinda has a magical book containing literally everything that happens in her own world and basically can't be defeated. Okay, a huge stretch but both have witches so it was interesting to think about for a second.

>>17540061
Well that didn't last long.

>>17540085
I mean, I suppose it's possible. Ryukishi does seem pretty familiar with western stories after all. But I doubt there's any real connection there. I've noticed he usually gives little shout-outs to the things he references, like with Higurashi, And Then There Were None, and the Bible.

What would 19 year-old Maria have been like? Would she have followed through on that promise?

Beato

I've been wondering about this for a while. Let's suppose Kinzo's black magic research actually paid off and he found a way to revive Beatrice; Which one would he have chosen to bring back? What was more important to him, seeing Bice one last time, or apologizing to his daughter for what he did?

>>17540369

In short, it's like Higurashi but worse. The similar small village, mystery, same phrases like "he/she is transferred", murders, relationships and an insane walkthrough to boot. It was my first VN with using of text-hookers, so i think it was rewarding

Seriously. I'm shocked that Witch Hunt isn't working on this.

>>17543058

They are busy with Mangagamer

>>17543188
Speaking of which. They're still working on ougon musou kyoku

>>17543255
What are they even planning on doing for that anyway? I mean, for stuff like the spoken dialogue during fights; Are they going to try adding subtitles or something? There's no way in hell they'd actually go through all the effort of hiring English VAs to dub it over. Or are they just going to leave it alone entirely and only translate the text?

ryukishi said he doesn't want to reveal the next wtc's name cause it might give stuff away, but he did post teaser art. has anyone come up with a theory yet for what it'll be called?

They could be holding off on it until they release Chiru because of spoilers. They've also been working on "new and improved multiplayer" and testing it. Something about netcode and rollback, I think.

A fighting game without a good netcode is not a fighting game. Just look at melty blood on steam. Everyone's still playing on CCaster because the steam version has a shitty netcode.

Who is better: Battler or Keiichi?

>>17545581
They're both good, but I prefer Battler. He feels a bit more fleshed out as a character, and I liked his development over the course of the series.

>>17545519

Man, Narnith's LP of Umineko is such a good way to re-experience the fun of theory-making. Why are all the other LP'ers so poor in comparison in that regard?

>>17548407
Imagine being this delusional.

>>17553505
Seriously, who the hell would watch a let's play of Umineko? I can understand the fun of watching Markiplier or Jacksepticeye, but a VN???

>>17553535
Normally I would agree, but with Umineko it's different, since it feels like something that was specifically made to be enjoyed multiple times. I find LP's to be a great way to go through the series again, seeing things from someone else's perspective while simultaneously noticing things I hadn't seen before. The comments section is also a good place to discuss things. There's even a coding system in use that allows the viewers to discuss foreshadowing and other spoiler related things they notice without spoiling the reader.

It's sort of like how Featherine was able to enjoy seeing Ange's reactions to her story. LP'ers are like mikos for those who have already finished the series.

>>17553512
Do you think Lion stayed a guy even after becoming a resident of the Meta World? Beatrice (and presumably Shannon as well) seems to become a proper female when manifesting there, but that's likely due to an identity thing. Lion's androgynous, but doesn't have any noticeable issues regarding gender, so would he just remain as he was in real life?

was there any relation between her and lambda? besides just similar looks and personality

>>17553652
There was that one part in Episode 8 during the banquet where Lambda mentions the cake fractions puzzle Keiichi tricked Satoko with during zombie tag. Bern then appears and remarks that Lambda was once tricked by that question back when she was still human. It could have just been one of Ryukishi's usual shout-outs though and not something to be taken seriously.

Which one was more traumatized by their respective Logic Error?

>>17553652
It would explain why they're so gay for each other.

>>17553687
if lambda was satoko, then could we assume her logic error was escaping from her uncle?

>>17553587
Yeah, if you say it that way, then I can understand the enjoyment of wanting to experience Umi again through the eyes of someone else, but an hour and a half video... is too much, I would prefer to re-read the VN with a friend instead, or watch a movie or something else. I guess it's not for everyone.

>>17553648
Surely. I mean, he never fall off the cliff in his fragment and he see himself as a boy.

>>17553652
Upon looking into the Kanji for Satoko's name (沙都子), I noticed that the 子 character can also be read as "shi". It's a bit of a stretch, but Sa-to-shi = 3, 10, 4 = 34.

>>17553707
I usually watch them in the background while working on something else. Plus I don't have any real life friends I could recommend it to.

>>17553704
Maybe I don't remember well, but I'm pretty sure we don't know nothing about Lambdadelta's past, so we can't compare anything.

>>17553706
That would make sense. Lambda's logic error was described as something that could only be escaped with certain willpower. Satoko definitely believed that handling the problem through willpower was the right way to go, putting up with everything without relying on anyone else.

>>17553810
I'm not talking about the logic errors themselves, but rather the effects they had on them. Lambda hides it better, but as she revealed in Episode 6, she's still terrified of the possibility that she's actually still in the logic error.

>>17553812
Didn't Ryukishi said that any resembles with Satoko and Takano was a red herring?
>>17553829
I personally believe that Lambdadelta is more creepy and crazy than Bernkastel.

I have a feeling that Lambdadelta will be the villain in WTC5

I love how Lambda and Bern essentially switch roles over the course of the series. Lambda starts out as the insane one who acts as the bigger bad manipulating Beato, while Bern is the more reasonable and calm one who’s mostly neutral but will occasionally lend the reader her help.

Then by the end of the series Bern turns out to be just as cruel and petty as she initially claimed to be back in Episode 1, acting as a main villain behind Erika. Lambda on the other hand becomes the more reasonable of the two, still a twisted and cruel person but someone who is always fair and even helpful at times.

>>17553850
He said it would be a completely new thing, so maybe he will not re-use the same characters again, but who knows? Ryukishi might put some similar-looking background characters just to appeal some.

>>17553652
If we go along with the whole "Lambdadelta granted Takano's wish" theory, then no.

>>17553847
>Didn't Ryukishi said that any resembles with Satoko and Takano was a red herring?
I don't know. I've heard so many things allegedly said by Ryukishi that it's hard to keep track of which ones are actually true and which are just rumors that got passed around until everyone believed them. Is there a collection of all Ryukishi's interviews somewhere out there?

>I personally believe that Lambdadelta is more creepy and crazy than Bernkastel.
Bern seems more petty and spiteful to me, which gives her a greater capacity for acts of cruelty. I do think Lambda is every bit as broken as her though, and just hides it better. There's also the possibility that both of them were both just having fun all along, playing the roles of good or bad guys.

>>17553941
>Is there a collection of all Ryukishi's interviews somewhere out there?
Surely some die-hard fan must have done something like that, but no idea. I read it in some wiki a while ago.
>There's also the possibility that both of them were both just having fun all along, playing the roles of good or bad guys.
Well, yeah. That's was the point of all the drama. They both wanted to have fun at the expenses of others, no matter the consequences. I was all a game after all for them.

>>17553925
Not necessarily. Featherine has shown that she's not above retconning things. Even if Lambda was also born from Higurashi, Featherine could have just changed the scenario so that she was backing Takano from the start.

In Episode 6 Lambda mentioned how Bern’s master (Featherine) hadn’t thought a solution to the logic error she was trapped in, and had left even the thinking up to her. This may sound dumb, and honestly even I don't put much faith in it, but what if Featherine didn't have a culprit in mind when she started making Higurashi? Lambda came into existence after Satoko was saved in Minagoroshi-hen. Afterwards, Frederika Bernkastel came up with a valid solution to the story in which Takano was the mastermind behind the crimes, using things like the Yamainu and Hinamizawa syndrome to explain any plotholes. Featherine accepted this development and rewrote things so that Rika could finally survive and the logic error was fixed.

>>17553977
>It was all a game
fixed
>>17553941
Lambdadelta is just an overly attached troll friend and Bernkastel is a bad loser with bad temper.

>>17553847
You're probably thinking of this
http://witchhunters.livejournal.com/6828.html

>Why does anyone think [Lambda] has appeared in Higurashi? When human beings encounter an unknown thing, they would automatically regard it as something that exists in their memory. Those who've played Higurashi might have directly fallen into a trap. Those who haven't played it would think [Bern and Lambda] are two ordinary witches. Bernkastel and Furude Rika look similar, so people would think they are the same character. But Lambdadelta and Takano Miyo look nothing alike; they only have similar bangs and eye colour.

>>17553705
Were Satoko and Rika actually gay for each other? Like, were they really just close friends, or did either of them feel something more? Plus were they even old enough to understand such a distinction?

>>17554031
Of course not, idiot. Just friends.

>>17554027
Thanks for the source anon.

>>17554027
Yes, probably.
>Why does anyone think [Lambda] has appeared in Higurashi?
So she didn't appeared in Higu after all. Lambdadelta is not Satoko/Takano confirmed.

>>17554031
Nothing really hinted at them being anything other than very close friends. Satoko being Lambda would just explain why Bern and Lambda are so close, since they would've known each other for pretty much their entire existence.
I don't think there are any details anywhere of how Bern and Lambda meet in Umineko also.

>>17554036
There's no need for that. It's a legitimate question. Ryukishi has shown that he's capable of writing homosexual relationships that aren't just fanservice pandering. That's why I don't think it's out of the question.

Though I will agree Higurashi is primarily a story about friendship, whereas Umineko is one about romantic love. so it's probably not very likely.

>>17554062
>There's no need for that.
Shut up, pedo loser. Loser.

>>17554046
Seems like it, though it's still an interesting possibility to consider. I do think Lambdadelta had a hand in Higurashi even if she didn't appear in it, acting as Takano's sponsor.

>>17554096
Nope. The author's word is everything, anon. I'm right, you're wrong. Yes!

>>17554096
>acting as Takano's sponsor.
Episode 8's manga and Lambda's Diary seem to imply so

>>17554054
>Nothing really hinted at them being anything other than very close friends.
Maybe not on Satoko's end, but Rika says some pretty questionable lines in the last few arcs.

>>17554141
As does The Witch's Tanabata.

>>17554175
After all Rika has been through is not difficult to think that she might treasure her friends more than anything else (she lived dozens of lives with them after all) and created a very special bond with all of them. They are her support. Don't confuse that with some lesbo shit.

>>17554141
>>17554192
Just a red herring.

>>17554228
That phrase is taboo.

>>17554243
Just. a. little. red. herring.

>>17554217

Newt is ok, I'm hoping he takes a few chill pills though, he can piling on the hate a bit too much sometimes.

>>17554339
Newt's alright, but he's been showing some serious "goat" signs. Whenever any mysteries come up, he gets so focused on solving them he stops giving a shit about any of the emotional aspects of the story. He spent almost the entirety of Episode 2's second half like this, going along with Rosa's line of thinking. He showed no reaction to things like Kanon getting blamed for Jessica's murder, Genji being forced to give up his keys, or Battler's identity being questioned once a letter appeared.

He’s also got a bad habit where he stops thinking as soon as he comes up with a single possible explanation and becomes completely convinced that it’s the right answer.

Anyone read manga adaptation of Episode 7? Remember the deduction line of Kinzo impregnating Beatrice (daughter) with another Beatrice (granddaughter)?

>>17554141 >>17554192
What is gods position in R07verse?

>>17555288
Apparently the Christian God is also a witch, if I'm reading this right.

Edit anon here. It's been a while since I last uploaded anything. A new doujinshi is on it's way to sad panda now. Hope you enjoy.

>>17555338
I'd say not just a witch, but a creator.

>>17555345
<One more!>

>>17553752

>>17545320
Well, then Battler would be the one in for a big surprise, not George. So what?

Also, i think Battler would be too nice to attempt this.

>>17554318
Don't fix my post, you.

>>17545320
It's pretty much the definition of what an Umineko happy end would be, so no. Battler x Beatrice was just a sad compromise that Yasu made up to not feel like she was being unfaithful.

>>17557190

MFW Battler actually describes Yasu when he lies to "Beatrice" on the balcony in ep4 when he describes what kind of woman he likes.

>>17557754

>>17560467
She'd just have to keep him so occupied with her he wouldn't have time for anyone else.

Which witch has the most punchable face?

>>17559724
There's plenty of great ones.

Personal favorites are Childlike Death Sentence, Intellectual Rapist, Aoi no Shiren and One in Two-million five hundred thousand-something.

Oppa in love is also good simply for the ZEN ZEN DAME DAZE, and The Great Detective knows best is neat too.

>>17561637
Childlike Death Sentence is one of my favorites to, along with Entreat and Chain. Also, I'm not sure if they count, but I really like Gold in Blue and VII.

>>17559724

Yeah, the one who will suck you off for jack-o'-lantern candy.

>>17562072
Sounds like a promising future.

Almost finished Higurashi, just got done with Saikoroshi-hen.
Was Hanyuu splitting Rika and Bernkastel in this scene? Sure sounds like it was implied, especially since Hanyuu says just a few scenes later that she now won't be lonely even after Rika dies. But other than that she doesn't hint at it at all so maybe I'm just imagining things and Rika already split back as she got back from the perfect Hinamizawa?

Also, is there any way to play the patched Umineko version in Japanese on PC?

>>17562480
Why don't you just play the PS3 version?

>>17566408
I'm pretty sure that doesn't exist yet. I think you'll either have to wait for a release and subsequent modding of MangaGamer's Chiru or wait for Vit and co at UminekoProject to port and retranslate the PS3 version. Its looking like a long way off either way.

>>17566674
Ah, that's too bad then. My current patched game is crashing on every credits scene at the end of each episode.

Ignoring things like rank and gender, who would have been the best successor to the Ushiromiya family?

Is there any kind of patch or something to add CGs to the Higurashi arcs that have yet to come to steam?
I just finished reading Tsumihoroboshi and I think the only CG I saw was the one with Rena crying at the garbage dump

It's not something crucial or anything but after seeing the nice CGs the ps3 versions have I got a bit spoiled I guess

>>17562480
Also where are you playing this? Since I guess you don't have a ps3 judging by your following posts

>>17568882
I'm not as familiar with the various patches for Higurashi as I am with Umineko's, but here's a good resource to start looking.
http://lambdadeltosblog7thuniverse.tumblr.com/

>>17568864
Battler and Eva are worthy imo

Umineko gets pretty nutty when you try to translate everything to "being possible by humans", like the scene where Ange revisits Rokkenjima and the Sumadera clan is killed

>>17568903
>http://lambdadeltosblog7thuniverse.tumblr.com/
Yeah, I've read the first 4 versions from there
That blog is really nice, having everything patched up and uploaded.
But it doesn't have anything for the 5th or following arcs
I've been looking through everywhere including some shady as fuck places without luck, so I guess it just doesn't exist yet
I wish MangaGamer would release the new versions faster, I can't wait a whole year to keep reading

>>17568882
No, the old PS2 patch only adds sprites and backgrounds, not the CGs

>>17568913
That one's pretty easy actually. Amakusa sniped them.

>>17568908
Battler's supposed to be just like Kinzo when he was young, so it's possible that he might display the same innate talent and luck should he go into business. However, as they pointed out in Episode 1, Kinzo's success was largely attributed to the political and economic circumstances of the time, without which he never would have had an opportunity to make it big. If Battler's the same, then he'd only really be able to shine when in a tough situation like that, backed into a corner in an all-or-nothing struggle.

Eva seems like the best pick to me when it comes to inheriting Kinzo's current legacy. She's full of ambition to prove herself, plus has the knowledge and leadership skills to get things done. I think she'd be more suited to modern business than Battler, building up her company over a long period of time rather than aiming for a huge profit in one big gamble.

>>17569024
I mean, yeah...

But what about the follow up battle with Eva?
What menace did Eva pose to Ange there?

>>17569084
Remember the last thing she said to Ange before being shot?

>>17569084
None, that battle didn't happen. After the Sumedera's were all dead, Amakusa proceeded to shoot Ange.

>>17569098
No
>>17569105
But she survived, that means the shotgun must have exploded in Amakusa's face, and that was portrayed by it exploding on Eva's face right?

>>17569011
Damn, it's a shame then. I guess I'll wait for MangaGamers new versions, after finishing Tsumihoroboshi I realize how empty I feel without hearing the voices. I really liked them, Keiichi's VA is based as fuck

>>17569119
<Cool>

And no, she didn't survive, reread the end credits

>>17569125
Are we about to get in a heated discussion of what is Rokkenjima Prime and what isn't?

>>17569144
He's talking about episode 4, where she did not survive and Amakusa shot everyone, not prime.

>>17569150
So are you saying Ange revisiting Rokkenjima is not Prime? Because it's kind of relevant to the '98 story

Can anyone recommend me an artist or something that makes music similar to Umineko? or any music that uses harpsicord, pipe organ, violin, and such. This kind of shit is hard to find.

>>17569191
There's some worthwhile stuff in the Higanbana OST

Also Runescape

>>17569191
If you haven't already, check out Xaki's album of Umineko tracks and outtakes called Xwerk

>>17569166
The stuff with Kasumi isn't Prime. In the Magic Ending Ange resigns as the head of the Ushiromiya group, and leaves Okonogi to deal with the Sumadera family, so Kasumi doesn't chase her to begin with

>>17569208
There was some good stuff in Higabana, thanks.

>>17569217
Haven't checked this out, so I'll track it down.

This type of music have is so niche, fuck.

>>17569409
every time I listen to stuff like patchwork chimera I get so fucking depressed over the fact I only have the same few songs to give me the same type of feelings.

now I basically have to ration out my binges through the umineko ost to avoid this.

>>17568887
Vita.

>>17570337
Rika's dress looks weird somehow.

>>17570359
The CGs can get pretty QUALITY, but there's a lot(over 100 individual ones) of them to make it up.

>>17570401
Yeah, I suppose that's fair.

the latest nipah thread got deleted and i'm mad about it. damn witches

>>17570564
I didn't even notice there was one.

Now that WTC has gone 'open world', what would a witch's car looks like and how would it handle?

This is a feared and respected diety.

>>17571324
Why is there a navel on her back?

>>17569426
Not exactly the same feelings but House in Fata Morgana has some 10/10 songs that remind me of Umineko in how much they set the atmosphere

Let's discuss the real mystery in this story, who's the worst parent?

>>17572982
"I really do love Maria" or not, Rosa

>>17573012
What about Kyrie and Kinzo though? Rudolf and Eva are pretty bad too.

>>17573163
Battler turned out fine and Ange would have as well. She wasn't abusive or careless in her taking care of them by any means. Kinzo is just a given and I automatically pushed him off the list of options.

>>17573163
Battler turned out fine and Ange would have as well. Kyrie and Rudolf weren't abusive or careless in her taking care of them by any means. George also turned out fine and both loved and was loved by Eva. She was only strict on him in his schooling, which isn't ideal and had ulterior motives, but nothing terrible long term came from it that fucked George up, and Eva never considered him as only a tool for stealing the headship. Kinzo is just a given and I automatically pushed him off the list of options.

>>17572982
Bern.

>>17570564
Somebody snorted too much propane.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3wVEg5-ihEs

Do we have one these for Higurashi?

>>17573846
This is a good mama cat

[muffled Dance of the Moon Rabbits in the distance]

>>17574643
Seacats and 2hu really do go well together.

75% Kinzo

Would Sayo had done everything if she just learned about butt sex? Or even oral?

>>17575482
Being unable to experience any sexual stimulation or orgasms would likely have still had an effect.

>>17575503
considering how flaky and passive she is, she might be into that. after all, a large part of sexual gratification is from feelings after all

Witches Tea Party!

https://mega.nz/#!J5t2CB4C!wARwhhlDF0mPL2ZeTbKfRRUZ172nluYPilPF5EyIuCk

>>17574728
Reminds me of this for some reason

Anyone (re)read the game with the Umineko Project?

Was just skipping through some stuff, and noticed that the end of EP1 Tea Party has some stuff cut at the end; namely Beatrice's final lines.

This a regular thing?

W-Where can I download all the sprites, anon? I want them all in a package.

Thanks in advance.

>>17576963
It's not cut, they moved them to after the credits
Same thing happens with Ange in EPs 3 ???, go check out how garbage they made it

Which aunt was most relevant to the story? I'd say which parent, but all the dads were irrelevant.

>>17577821
Natsuhi. She orchestrated the plot to hide Kinzo and castrated Yasu.

>>17577821
If you look at it from a magical perspective, it's definitely Eva, the entire third game was basically dedicated to her.
From a concrete perspective, it's Natsuhi, when it come to Yasu's backstory, Natsuhi is the most important character.

>>17577821
Isn't Yasu technically one of the aunts?

>>17576848
got the other chapters?

>>17577913

>>17577878
If you want to get technical, she's actually an uncle

>>17576991
All of them?

>>17577978
Let's go with both, just to further distort the family tree.

>>17577981
If possible, but I accept any package you got

>>17578061
If my internet wasn't so shit I'd upload them all together myself, but let's see if I can track down links for them all again.

>>17578021
Sounds good to me.

>>17578237

>>17577821
Natsuhi was the most relevant to Yasu's story.
Eva was the most relevant to Ange's story.
Rosa was most relevant to KNM's story.

>>17577878
That Kinzo face is one of the best things to come from the new art.

>>17578219
Thank you very much, anon.

>>17578417
I'm happy to help.

What is the most common point in the story to figure out the truth? From what I've seen Episode 6 seems to be the main "realization point".

>>17580013
episode 7 because the majority of us are a bunch of dumb goats

Did the full opening theme for Trianthology ever come out?

>>17580013
the manga if youre retarded like me

LAMBDA-Beatrice

>>17580013
Years of browsing here because I'm even more retarded

>>17580251
Yes

>>17580698
Where is it?

>>17580251
Maybe.

>>17577493
Was this done by UP or was it like that on the PS3 game?

>>17580013
7, but that's because I read 5-6-7 in quick succession, and never paused to think.

>>17580727
It's like that in the actual game

>>17580013
I thought it was episode 3 because of the red web at the end and they pretty much give away the main trick.

>>17580867
But why

>>17580013
how could the ending of 6 be any less obvious

Is there somewhere I can get rips of the original character portraits? I can only find the PS3 ones for whatever reason.

>>17581846
<Good>

Nanjo looks so cool in this picture.

>>17582825
You mean like these?

>>17581846
<Have a nice dream>

>>17582825
>>17583030
Yeah. It's alright though, I found what I'm looking for.

>>17540061
Where?

>>17583041
There. On the picture. Best girl aka Frederica Bernkastel.

>>17583051
That's a really weird way to write Lambdadelta

Lambda is the best.

>>17583065
She looks so flat there.

>>17569191
Akiko Shikata did many of the vocal songs for Umineko and has a similar style.

Some songs by Luca Turilli (Italian metal musician) have a similar medieval style. "Tormento e Passione" always reminded me of Umineko, also "Excalibur."

I've read Umineko so long ago...

It is true that Battler mentions Higurashi?

>>17583426
Yeah, in Episode 1 he references what Keiichi's mom said about perfect crimes in Tatarigoroshi.

Where is this sprite from again? Golden Fantasia?

>>17583756
I think so. From left to right it's Anime, Manga (Ep5 I think), Ps3, Original, OMK, Pachinko.

>>17583873
what stuff has Benkastel smoked in the Pachinko version?

>>17584482
Umeboshi wrapped in one of Featherine's manuscripts. Imagine smoking a plum-flavored universe, basically that.

>>17584482
Stale cat food.

>>17581778
Where?

Bern!

I don't understand.
What is it that makes me so infatuated with Erika?

>>17585695
Her smugness?
Her intellect?
Her perverseness?
Her sadism?
Her masochism?
Her design?

>>17585647
A true miracle

>>17585647
the god kakera

>>17585647
/pol/tard

>>17585647
I want to feel the Bern!

>>17586840

I left for just a few days and you nerds turned this dead thread into some lame cringey waifu dead thread, gosh.

>>17592225
You're welcome.

What would Kinzo have done if he ever found out that it was Rosa who let Kuwadorian Beatrice outside?

>umineko threads in /v/ go past 50 replies in less than 15 minutes
>umineko thread on /jp/ is slow as fucc and gets fucked by reply limit

deleting 75% of boards when

Lol umi thread from /v/ was deleted. That's what you got for contradict me anonymous poster from /v/.

>>17593668
That's how /jp/ works. This is a slow board.

>>17593688
the board should then have less pages because big threads die in a sea of three post shitpost threads

>>17593737
What's the problem? Who cares? Just let the thread die slowly and if someone feels like contributing with some dumb stuff they can do it without fear of time. I might feel like saying hi in a week and I know there's gonna be a thread open to do so.

>>17593737
It's not like a thread instantly dies once it hits bump limit. Sometime it can take 3 days or more when the board is really slow.

What was the deal?

>>17593668
To be honest, comparing one of the fastest boards with /jp/ is not fair, not to mention that are people who have never heard of umineko in /v/, and so the interest is more alive and there's more post. Here we all already know what's about, we know all the memes and the answers, and so there's nothing left to say, and when we have some thread in /a/ is mostly just shitposting and the usual waifu faggotry, if isn't dead. Now it seems like Umineko threads are no longer allowed in /v/ either. Oh well.
You know, I see these threads more as a place to be aware of the news, if there is any, since you guys are always the first to know something, and I appreciate that. Maybe a little shitposting from time to time from my part, but just a little, like, this post was not just an excuse for me to have the last post. Promise.

>>17593668
i can never find umineko threads on /a/ or /v/ though, even if its slow at least this one is always here

A seacat chess set would be pretty cool. How would you arrange which characters are which pieces?

>>17595401
I honestly like it this way. Not sure if I would use it to play chess for real, too embarrassing.

>>17595937
Personally I'd go with something like this. I think it would be fun to try and play a game like this.

>>17595401
I wanted to create a vidya game with an artist some years ago.

I have the coding experience. He had the art. I contacted him. He never answered. Well, too bad. I went on with my life.

Then two years later I stumbled, quite coincidentally, upon a tumblr blog of a transgender autistic homosexual whiner. That was my guy. I stumbled upon it because he literally posted a tumblr post explaining how he had been too anxious to answer the email of an unknown personal wanting his help to create an Umineko game, and how his autistic depression paralysed him.

I contacted him again after that, though understandably a little peeved. He never answered _again_.

What a literal faggot.

>>17596588
I never new that existed. It's perfect, thanks anon!

>>17596606
What kind of game was it?

>>17596588
Thank you nerd =w=)/ <3 *bow*

>>17596615
The little Umineko character cards with moves and powers outlining a boardgame? He was the artist of that. I was enthralled by the idea and contacted him.

But then he never answered, and then he posted a post on a tumblr I didn't even know existed (the Tumblr of An Autistic Gay Asperger, that was the title) basically saying: 'I have depression and I can't manage when people contact me! What could have been! Oh, I wanted that gaem! What didn't I answer to his email!'.

Between a post titled "I'm gay and depressed :(" and another "Umineko is for gay autistic people!".

And yet, I contacted him AGAIN. And he didn't answer.

Fuck. So much lost potential. I'm fucking angry now.

>>17596632
Hahaha that's hilarious

>>17596632
Edit anon here. If you're still interested, I'd be willing to help with making some graphics. I'm not really good at making new art, but I'm pretty confident when it comes to working with the preexisting stuff.

>>17596714
You are driven. This is very good, but my own well has dried up. I barely remember what I wanted to do then. It seems I can't even find the characters cards of that artist (does anyone have them?), because the faggot deleted his deviantart account. Probably in a manic-depressive bitchfest.

Plus, nowadays I'm writing Linux kernel modules, and it takes up all of my time.

Still, what I am doing is whining, and nothing was ever done by whining. Do you have a way to contact you safely?

I am the French translator of Higanbana by the way.

>>17596750
edit_anon@yahoo.com
I'll delete this in a moment.

>>17596750
It's alright if you're too busy. I've got plenty of other stuff to keep me occupied, like that stack of doujinshi I'm currently working my way through.

>>17596767
Saved. It is very late where I am, and I am somewhat drunk, but you will receive an email in tomorrow. I don't promise anything, but I promise that if something is started, it will be brought to completion.

scanlation when

>>17596776
Right back at you.

>>17596793
I've got the scans saved and I'm willing to handle the cleaning if a translator is found.

>>17596770

Good luck to you two.

Pay attention to the notes Yasu has on the wall I think its something like he had a debt to pay in his past job or some shit.

Bye thread

>>17596983
they can replace the rest of the pieces, just get rid of the unimportant family members

>>17597164
My pleasure buddy.

Well, in truth, it was a pain, in large part because I had to tweak Uncle Mion's interpreter to make it work with French character sets (and, well, I had to translate), but I'm glad it helped someone.

I have many horror stories to tell about the French VN community but this wouldn't really be proper. Just know that the primary French translation teams are driven by huge egos and tiny penises.

But I have many sweet stories to tell about people who freely involved themselves into the project and were simply fans, and just plain all good people. So it balances. It's life.
