Oi Rikka ever used phone in Hinamizawa right?
>>21176696>despises phone calls to the point of forgetting how to talk to peopleLiterally me and my waifu.
>>21176696Bern has no friends
>>21176578
Why did Rika constantly choose to make enigmatic warnings to people that sounded like threats instead of just coming out and saying what she meant? Did she seriously think Akasaka would come to the conclusion that his wife would have an accident just because she kept acting spooky around him?
>>21177660Something you learn with time. Sometimes "shitposting" is the best way to communicate a message. It has to do with symbols and shit. By giving an enigmatic warning Rika could awake a subconscious awareness in Akasakas mind and avoiding the immediate skepticism by ignoring Rikas objective warnings, she is just a kid! This way the enigmatic information could circle around Akasakas mind to the point of himself realizing the potential danger himself in time to avoid it.
>>21177700They don't help though. His wife dies in almost every kakera. If she just dropped the bullshit and told him outright, he might take it a little more seriously.I mean fucking hell, we're told in the TIPS that Rika can "predict" events in foreign countries because she remembers them in previous cycles. There's no reason she couldn't convince the people close to her that yes, she really does know what's going to happen in the following years.But she just pisses away dozens of opportunities until finally her friends are magically able to remember all the bad worlds and not give into their demons.
>>21177754Source on how she never tried to say them objectively first and failed?
>>21177765There isn't one that I know of, but I can't think of any source that shows her making a proactive effort either.

Why are there so many Higurashi doujinshi compared to Umineko doujinshi?
>>21178187VNs are niche in Japan. Higurashi's popularity is due to the anime. Umineko completely failed in that regard.
How come the song that plays in the title screen of OMK sounds like it belongs in RGD?
>>21178435pretty sure it's the same singer from one of the RGD OPs, maybe even same composer/band
I love how the comedy episodes of Higurashi (in both the anime and the VN) are still enjoyable despite being irrelevant extra shit that takes place after the main plot. The village is such a beautiful setting and the cast is so fun to be around that I wouldn't mind another 8 arcs but just full of club shenanigans and slice of life.It's weird that we don't know anything about their life a few years after the story ended.
>>21178437I love Stella as a character, but Meryl is the one I'd rather fuck.
>>21178187>that one super fucked up guro Rena doujinshi made up of parts of other doujinshi and panels from the mangahttps://nhentai.net/g/136196/I wish I could understand the story. It's a bit of a mess.

Who the fuck thought it was a good idea to replace Silver Mirror and a bunch of other songs with completely different ones in the Higurashi Steam update?
>>21176691Shit on the right.
how do I install witches & woodlands
Defend this.
>>21179465Maybe it was Ryukishi07 himself. The songs were originally free but terms might have changed now on some tracks, or Ryukishi felt the original songs were too low quality and had to be replaced.>07th Expansion has decided to re-record all the Higurashi BGM and sound effects in the series so customers will be able to enjoy a fresh new track in modern quality. The game will auto-update itself with the new upgrade.https://steamcommunity.com/games/526490/announcements/detail/1733230845869688387
>>21179601The kuwadorian should still be there, so perhaps there was a bathroom there that she could have used? Flushing might not work though, I'm not sure.Either way, Ange has a dirty mind! She probably gets that from her bullies.
>>21179601She should use Ange's mouth.
Which witch will help me get the best night's sleep?

>>21178437i thought the dancing higanbana was also an iteration of rika and then there is another cameo of her as mc in the form of erika in that shitty battle royale Ren'ai Harem Game manga á la mode.
>>21178757Ok that's epic. Long have i seen such a good 07th general.

>>21181262rika's expy in Hotarubi no Tomoru Koro ni looked like a fucking retarded ayylmao. As for the stinky girl from higanbana, she kinda deserved the bullying lol.
>>21181418the stinky girl from higanbana was my fav characteand I have no idea why midori is so popular, the booru tags for the vn is 99% filled in fanart of her, that's so odd
>>21181253Nayuki is unironically the best. I love her route.
>>21181262Yukari is an Ange expy, though.
>>21181543Why is this dumb twat so popular?

The butt-ass-nakedness of Satoko, a half-grown human being!
>>21182695She's just a kid.
>>21182703She's got titties.
>>21182518What kind of scenes would you want to see in that?
>>21181543Same here, Yukari is my favorite character in Higanbana. Both of her chapters are in my top 3. I especially like how Ryuukishi resolved her story in the second night, after throwing the towel in the first and basically admitting that some situations are inescapable without a literal deus ex machina saving your ass by chance.The power she gains in the second night is the most fantastical by far, at least in how it's portrayed in the story, but it's also the most realistic one. She just had to grow some balls (not literally) and be willing to fuck up anyone who pisses her off or creates an atmosphere of bullying. She was bullied for being taller than most boys, which isn't cute at all, but she used that fact to her advantage and became some sort of "hero" among the girls. Someone who will guarantee that any asshole kid gets their teeth kicked in. Girls are stronger than boys at that age, too.This is a central theme in RGD too. The criminal underworld will exist no matter what, especially in an impoverished country full of people starving for employment. Primavera uses violence and murder to go up in the hierarchy and maintain their position of power, but their methods don't destroy the lives of innocent civilians (unlike Caleb's) and they have a noble goal in mind. Well, at least at the beginning. If they didn't take that position, some other villain with less noble intentions would.
>>21183272R07 writes in response to his previous works, even within the same series (look at how Higurashi evolved, for example).Higurashi is about hope and the power of friendship. Umineko shows how relationships can be broken beyond repair and that sometimes escapism is the only solution. Higanbana criticizes escapism and pointless daydreaming, showing what happens once you return to the real world after neglecting your real life for years. It also portrays dead people as being inferior to the living, powerless beings incapable of doing anything to improve their situation, a clear response to how Umineko romanticized Sayo's suicide and the afterlife of the Ushiromiyas. And RGD expands on the bullying theme but in a different context. I wonder if Ciconia will talk about how the very idea of "belonging" to a certain culture is actually bullshit. Not that RDG didn't touch on that a bit, but it was more inclined to the opposite direction.The most obvious example of Ryukishi writing in response to his previous works is the EP8 ???? Tea Party. Ange basically turns Maria into a god by writing books about Sakutaro that teach millions of kids about Maria's philosophy and her way of finding happiness in a shitty situation. It's the same thing that Takano attempted to do for her grandfather, but she fucked it up and killed 2000 people, instead of learning from his selflessness and helping kids in need or something.
Takano is a braphog.
>>21180905W&W is great.
>>21183430I remember the shitstorm after EP7 translation came out, it's funny and cringy now looking those threads lol.
>>21183376>He thinks sayo is dead
>>21183666Ikuko=Yasu?Also devilish trips.
I feel like there has to be some other phenomenon going on to explain why Bern states the tragedy occurs in the Miracle Fragment with Lion and Will. In theory the inheritance is getting doled out so the financial concerns should be met eliminating rule x, and rule z shouldn't be a concern either because Lion is, seemingly, at peace with herself

>>21193662Hair's a bit long.
>>21193816where is this from ?
>>21193886The last chapter of Watanagashi-hen's manga. It's the hospital scene right after Keiichi is stabbed by Shion.
>>21193907she's really beautiful in these panels, I gotta say moms are really the most beautiful thing on this earth, when I think of moms, I'm reminded of why I'm here, to pour my whole being and soul into loving thems
>>21193935Honestly, just about all the 07th Expansion moms look great. The Ushiromiya ladies need no introduction. Akane is pretty much a grownup short-haired Mion/Shion. The manga's version of Aiko is cute. Even ones who only appear for about a chapter like Satoko and Satoshi's mom look fine.
>>21178437>Putting Erika in that chartThat's like putting shit on a perfectly fine meal.Erika ain't even part of the Rikas. She's just a thot who was made into a piece controlled by Bern.
>>21178757Nice meme. But they were in different places doing different things.Do like the idea that Erika kills that guy in trick end metaphorical "killing" her brother since she won't meet him again that way.

The Umineko anime opening is really cool, but it feels so weird now.We know these characters as if they were our own family members, so it's bizarre to see them portrayed as psychopathic scheming bastards in the opening. The VN never did anything like that, especially with Natsuhi. The VN opening portrayed her as a victim.

>>21193601How kind of you. I'm glad you like it so much. Here, have another one.
>>21196953This is a weird one since I like Franziska a ton and Eva is my favorite Umineko character.
>>21196959I figured it fits her well enough. Both are successors to super successful father's whom they want to live up to. Both are also violent and condescending, though that applies to pretty much every witch/prosecutor.
>>21196975Yeah it matches pretty decently.
>>21196953Hm, on second thought, I think the skirt is a tad too light. Adjusted.

>>21197028It's weird bc I've always played video games as far back as I remember but for the past year I've lost all of my ability to enjoy videogames, and that applies to movies and anime too, I always download some movie then instantly close it after the title shows up, because I don't feel I'll get anything out of itis that normal ?I just read vns now, because I don't have to be invested in them, if I don't pay attention I just have to not scroll the text further or I save and read the rest later
>>21197094I'm in a slump too so I know that feeling.

>>21197086>>21197089I don't know guys, it felt so nice and sayo had such beautiful hair and she was wearing her maid outfit, what is this place doing to me, why am i suddenly into eunuch maids
>>21197094I was like this for the past couple of years until just last month. I decided to stop taking depression and insomnia meds, they've only made things progressively worse over the past decade, didn't matter what med it was. I'd download a game I was really interested in or used to love playing and within 20 minutes I'd stop. Movies, anime, books, vns, all the same; I got no enjoyment out of them. Haven't finished a single one, let alone really even start one, for so long.Stopped taking a couple meds and tapering on the last one. I'm doing a lot better now. I can actually enjoy things. Ive beaten a few games, watched an anime, started reading again, it's great.
>>21197107desu I could have accepted shkannon emotionally if it had been presented like this. I can practically hear dead angle playing in the background.
>>21197494I kinda wish there was a story where battler at the end of each game meets sayo and she tells him what happened and that the island is about to blow up, what would be his emotions during all of that ?
>>21196953best from both worlds, great job

>>21198175Does she have no shame? How can she show her ass cheeks like that?What if she's actually very shy and modest in her private life but enjoys exhibitionism when she's summoned to some random fragment where nobody knows her?

And just when i thought i found a lead to an artist named Lasterk whose work very closely resembled the style of the lost artpiece to about 80 to 90%, I end up finding out about the possibility that the art i'm looking for could very well be a pay-locked premium image. Seeing how the aforementioned artist that i investigated to the best of my abilitioes keeps getting some of his random shit pulled off from various boorus and yiffparty by request. At this point I'm not even sure if i found it here on any of the umineko related generals, as i'm down to the 2015 threads by now but it could very well be the case that I simply happened to come by that 410 purely by chance on a random thread or google image search (which since then i have been looking over and over using various keywords in jp and eng too) or on one of the boorus, then instantly favorited it and downloaded it only once (though my shitty mobile might i add which i have replaced) and took it for granted that it would allways stay on the site only to realize that it may very well have been demoned away. I'm talking to you sankaku and gel, even between these two the inconsistencies are rampant. Maybe it was made by one of those banned pixiv artist or rare talents that make very few artpieces resembling some's style then end up disappearing from the face of the internet. It is one of those rare images which is worth obsessing over.Tldr; lost image might very well be paylocked, was taken down by whichever artist made it by request and i'm not sure if i found the right artist.
>>21198586I know your pain anon, i had to go to from 2018 to 2016 threads to find a pic of my waifu and i had to check each pic invidually beacuse i remember i put her in a spoiler, you can't give up, there must be some forbidden sites where they might have posted that picture and where the artist couldn't get to it

>>21198637thank you that would help.
>>21197494Ew.
>>21198586>banned pixiv artistsDoes anybody actually get banned from Pixiv? Artists just randomly delete their accounts one day for autistic reasons.Something similar (but not that extreme) happens with Deviantart artists, except those are even more autistic and watermark the shit out of their art, ruining it. They claim they don't want people "stealing" their art, but I've never seen anyone doing such a thing. People just repost their art somewhere else to prevent it from being lost in an autistic fit. Nobody is claiming to be the creator, in fact they often tag the original artist.https://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?mode=medium&illust_id=30906127This is one of my favorite Meryl pictures. It's pretty old too. I found it on Deviantart back in 2012 and decided to post in on Pixiv to make sure it wouldn't be lost. At some point, they sent me a message in broken Japanese asking me to take it down or link to their Deviantart page. I put a link to it. Nothing happened.Years later, I went to their Deviantart page and turns out it was recently deactivated. All their art is gone, including that picture. The one they fucking asked me to remove. What would've happened if I hadn't posted it on Pixiv? It would be rotting away in one of my old hard drives in the middle of 3000 other pictures, never to see the light of day again.
>>21198371>animal abuser kid is getting raped by this goddess
There's this one sketch of Keiichi I saw I think around 2013-2015. I'm pretty sure it was something that was done for his birthday, and both his parents were in it. I think his dad had an arm around his shoulder or something. I think I first saw it on Tumblr or Twitter, but I can't find it anymore. Haven't seen it on Pixiv either. Has anyone saved it by any chance?
>>21198654Okay i checked it and the date is 13.03.2019, i don't think it's that old but maybe you can go somewhere from it
>>21198748Ty. I do see this image reapper pretty often, and its pixiv artist is still active, wish the same was the case with the lost one.

>>21198766Tbh anon, can you give me exact description ?, was there any background or was it just white, was the smirk more suggestive sexually or just sort of mocking ?

>>21198901Oh wow. I'd started thinking that it had probably been completely erased from the internet. If you could find it again that'd be much appreciated.I really should have known better and just saved the damn thing to begin with. Places like Tumblr are some of the worst sites when it comes to preserving images.
>>21198794the background was dark grey but there was a bit of depth to it like in the second image that i posted in this reply previously>21198586The smirk and faces were closest to lasterk's smirks thouhh.

I would bet an eyeball that whoever drew that image i linked and keep reusing as my main guide has been influenced or at least unconsciously inspired by the lost 410 art.>>21198920I should find it within a few days shortest. was planning to retrace my steps in case i missed something on my search for 410.

I want the same thing happen to me like pic related edgy guy from Higanbana. The only way i can atone for loosing one of the rarest of siesta 410 art is by jumping into a pit of wild rabid bunnies and be at their mercy. Wouldn't even mind if I end up with the same fate as Charla Nash (don't google) by them. On the bittersweet side of things, this might make for a fitting sEaster ritual nihihi.

Dated and hated meme but appropriate because now I genuinely blame Ryukishi07 for the loss of that one of a kind chiester410 art. If he didn't create the character of siesta410 for umineko in the first place, I wouldn't be soo obsessed over a non-existent fantasy beings nor pissed off at his mocking smirk that lowkey seems to mock and enjoy the grief of those in agony >:(

What would an RGD fighting game be like?The Umineko fighter is literally the only one I've ever truly liked. The Higurashi one is fantastic too, although it's more of a party fighter.

Almost time for Q&A with Ryu-chan. Scheduled to begin in about 15 minutes.

>>21200367oh shit
>>21200377Ciconia is gonna be the Evangelion of WTC? Hype
Is Mangagamer involved AT ALL with the English release of Ciconia or is Witch Hunt working directly with Ryuukishi?Everything they touch goes to shit.
>>21200367Shoutout to Witch Hunt indeed. Ryu-chan, you beautiful bastard.

>>21200367Is this for real?Ryukishi is a god if it is
I hope someone lets him know that Higanbana actually has fans over here. I believe it sold like crap, which is a shame.
Absolute fucking legend Ryukishi. What a God.

>>21200438I'm actually going to cry
>>21200438Ciconia will be the first VN to have an english translation on release right?We don't deserve Ryukishi
>>21200438didn't we know this already?
>>21200443Ciconia: when the anons cry
>>21200437Scroll down, that link was posted right before the following reply:https://twitter.com/Klashikari/status/1119375119560925188>>21200449We knew Witch Hunt would be translating Ciconia, but we didn't know that it would have a simultaneous release in English.
>>21200377>""""""those"""""" peopleIt's time
Is he seriously releasing it on Steam? Even the Japanese version?Wouldn't that put restrictions on what type of content is allowed?
>>21200480What would even be in Ciconia that wouldn't be allowed on Steam? It's not going to be ero anyways.
Oomeenikou when it's time to see gulls
>>21200480Nowadays Steam only restricts stuff if journalists throw a large enough fit to hurt the Steam brand. Ryu is not offensive enough for this to happen.
>>21200481>>21200484What if he wanted to do some loli nudity again in the future? Would he find another place to release it or would he brush off the idea because half of his audience is expecting his works to be on Steam? That would be restricting creativity.
>>21200498>againwut
>>21200377guess it's finally time to watch EvangelionWhat are the must-watch shit for evangelion?
>>21200498It sucks but what can one do. It's not like you could easily sell loli stuff in the west anyways even if you forego Steam (and all other platforms) since they'll just get you on a payment povider level.
>>21200498Satoko was a one time wonder. Roses bloom more beautifully if their time is short.
>>21200505the original tv series and end of evangelion
>>21200502Referring to a scene with Satoko losing her towel and her sprite being nude, which the Steam version removes by having her sprite keep the towel on.Don't give it too much attention, it just leads to the thread getting derailed by talking about naked lolis and buzzwords like "puritan" and "SJW" being thrown around again which turns the thread to shit.
>>21200505The original 26 episodes and End of Evangelion. The Rebuild movies are fanservice for fans who wanted a more straightforward mecha series.
>>21200505The strip mahjong games and Ayanami Rei Raising Project
>>21199746Fag.
>>21200502The humilliaton and human condition of Satoko exposed but thanks to tumblr and SJW fags was censored.
>>21200438>Comicket releaseThank god.I'm still slightly bitter that it won't get an old fashioned translation patch, though. I hope they don't change ANYTHING for the western release except the language. I hate what they did to the Higurashi engine and all the shit they removed.
So will there also be an English comiket release or is that too much to ask for?
>>21200498Straight up nudity isn't really that lewd. It's like looking at a wild animal. That's why Satoggo had to be completely butt-ass-nude when she went insane with paranoia.When it comes to intentional lewds, nudity isn't really needed.
At this point ciconia will be released before than the umi dub project
>>21200567I mean, even if it had been funded on the planned day it'd still take longer since they said it'd take like 2 years to come out and Ciconia comes out this August.
>>21200566Hi pedo
are these secondary arcs made for the console ports canon?
I'm so happy that I won't have to avoid 4chan for like a year when Ciconia comes out.
>>21200564I don't want filthy gaijin languages infesting Comiket. Language attracts its own audience and culture. Yikes.The Steam release should be basically the same in every way, except for built-in achievements or some shit, which I despise and want wiped off the code.I'll probably support my favorite author by buying the Comiket release and then pirating the Steam translation. I fucking hate Steam and everything related to it. I don't want to be online to play shit. I don't want achivements or cards or whatever the fuck. I want to buy the product and have nothing to do with the platform.
This is really nice i'm so happy.(any information about Saku)
>>21200593>I don't want to be online to play shityou don't have to?
>>21200593Classic weeb grow up and you don't need to be online to play the steam games.
>>21200589I was dreading that too. I also worried about my own self-control when it comes to peeking at spoilers while waiting for a translation.
>>21200593You are fucking selfish and elitist, kys you are the cancer of this fanbase.
>>21200593So you get upset by English-speaking people being at comiket yet you also plan to go there and buy Ciconia despite not speaking Japanese, and you're against Steam but also against it being released in English as a physical copy at comiket? Fucking idiot
>>21200593Good for you.
>>21200589I remember fake screenshots would pop up around desuchan shortly before each episode's release.
>>21200585Not really, but they don't contradict anything (except for being fucking stupid and painfully edgy). Some of them are nice, but I don't consider them canon.They are technically canon to the console version of Higurashi. But as far as 07thExpansion is concerned, only the Higurashi, Kai, Rei and Hou arcs are canon. Those are the only ones actually written by Ryuukishi, the only ones that even feature the original art and the only ones that may be acknowledged or referenced in future works.
>>21200627I should play Hou someday.
>>21200593In before "I was just pretending to be retarded!".
>>21200627well good cause that one I just posted shows that Rena was a rape victim in her old school.
yea but miyao boy or girl
>>21200626Ah yes, rainbow truth.
>Just announced at Ryukishi07’s panel at Sakuracon: The latest installment of the When They Cry series, Ciconia When They Cry, is intended for a simultaneous Japanese and English release on MangaGamer and Steam at this year’s Summer Comiket! https://twitter.com/MangaGamer/status/1119391673367314432http://blog.mangagamer.org/2019/04/19/sakuracon-2019-announcement-ciconia-when-they-cry/>>21200593You don't have to worry about Steam and its extra fluff, you can just get the MangaGamer version too. There, aren't you happy?
>>21200633It's pretty good, especially the Hinamizawa Bus Stop pilot arc. It's literally the entire conspiracy plot of Higurashi condensed into a short play where empty silhouettes of all the Higurashi characters play different characters. And the whole thing takes place in a bus stop. And everything is cranked up to 11, especially Oyashiro-sama's creepy legends and the true nature of the Hinamizawa Syndrome (the fucking parasites are the size of ants now).The Hou arcs have been machine-translated for years now, but it's obviously not the optimal way to read them. You could download it with the """"English"""" patch or just wait for Mangagamer to release the whole thing in 2026 and fix all the typos in 2030.
ruh roh
>>21200688Man that really is an extremely fuckable boy
>>21200657does it matter if they're cute?
>>21200646That was already canon. The console arc just expands on it. It's basically official fanfiction.
>>21200693Girl.
>>21200688That's clearly a girl (male).
>>21200702was it? I don't remember the rape part mentioned in the main arcs.
>>21200668Not him but yeah, steams a huge shit these days but i'll probably buy it on there anyway kill me
So I'm planning on picking it up at comiket, will I need to queue up 2 years in advance? I was gonna not go this summer and go in winter instead but Ryukishi forced my hand. Guess I'll starve myself for the next 4 months...
>>21200668>http://blog.mangagamer.org/2019/04/19/sakuracon-2019-announcement-ciconia-when-they-cry/This article actually has info on Ciconia:At his Sakuracon panel Ryukishi hinted that Ciconia will be taking a different turn in style from his previous works. While Higurashi and Umineko both focused on having players try to solve the mystery of the story themselves, Ciconia will have a much stronger focus on action with mystery elements scattered throughout. Ryukishi07 even issued a challenge to fans: “In this next game, I won’t give you the privilege of being a player!”This challenge ties in directly with story elements and themes that were revealed for the very first time ever at his Sakuracon Q&A panel.In Ciconia When They Cry, World War 3 has come and gone, with nuclear winter only narrowly avoided by new military technology, the Gauntlet, which allows those wielding one to fly like fighter jets, fight like battleships, and repel attacks like tanks without any additional equipment. The Gauntlets require particular talent and special training administered from a young age in order to control, and the young boys and girls capable of mastering of them become known as Gauntlet Knights.The main characters of Ciconia When They will be a group of these young Gauntlet Knights who, after the peaceful competition in the International Battle Standard Festival, become fast friends vowing to prevent world war together. However, world events are leading directly to World War 4 like a cascading row of dominos, and these “main characters” are nothing but pawns in the global games played by those with a right to sit at the table. Will these youth be forced to murder each other? Can the tragedy of war be prevented by mere pawns? Who are the real players in these games, and will you, the fans of When They Cry, fight for your seat at this deadly game?
>>21200725this sounds like it's going to be spicy
>>21200719She wasn't raped, but she was a 13 year old weirdo who only had male "friends" and turns out that they were trying to take advantage of the crazy chick. That's why she went fucking insane with the bat, because her group of "friends" surrounded her and attempted to go full train-groper on her.
>>21200725Sounds ridiculous and possibly fun, but I'm still not buying it having 'mystery elements'. You could say the same of any story.For me at least, WTC is characterised by a focus on mystery, and an episodic release format, and it looks like this game has neither.
>Meanwhile at Witch Hunt deniedHOLY SHIT
>>21200725RGD politics + techno-witches.I dig it.
My heart can't take this flood of hype
>>21200725I'm definitely interested but I'm not sure if I really approve of it not being a mystery first and foremost. It's not really that I'm not looking forward to this, it's more that I *also* want another mystery-focused story...
>>2120074013 year old lolis can't be weirdos. All females are normies LONG before that.
>>21200760I remember saying this the other day and got angry replies saying that I'd be complaining about Umineko too because it's got witches and shit unlike higurashi.
>>21200769That doesn't really make sense especially since Higurashi had magic as an actual part of the story. Umineko just had magic as a layer of framing on top of what actually happened.Plus just because you like mystery doesn't really mean that you can't also accept fantasy. Umineko established this mystery/fantasy dichotomy but you could just as well have a mystery story in a fantasy story, as long as it obeys the Knox rules.
>>21200760Personally I think the time loop is more important than it being a mystery.
this will be the first good comiket since 2011
>>21200725I feel hesitant about this, but it's part of wtc; I'll keep my hopes up
>>21200760Higurashi started out as a KEY romance that devolved into horror. Then it turned into a tragedy story. And then into a unorthodox conspiracy mystery with magical elements. Then Umineko went full classic mystery and incorporated the magic into it in a really clever way, developing a massive magical compendium with its own rules and hierarchies. Ciconia just seems like an evolution of the crazy magic users in Umineko but in a more realistic setting, combined with the tense RGD/Ushiromiya conference politics. I hope there are some elements or themes from Higanbana throw in and expanded too.When They Cry has never been focused entirely on the mystery genre, that was just Umineko.
>>21200760Umineko took the mystery genre as far as it could possibly go. What more could they do with it?
>>21200688is mangagamer or witch hunt translating it?
>>21200828yes.
>>21200725this is RGD 2 and people are complaing and saying they are afraid it will be bad?How many retards in here haven't played RGD already?
>>21200760>>21200769According to the panel, mysterious things will still be happening, and that Haworthia (while not connected to Ciconia) became the basis for it. It should still have the same feeling of Higurashi and Umineko but with a different setting. Evangelion was also mentioned, apparently being inspiration for Ciconia.https://twitter.com/The07thNetwork/status/1119374913070985216https://twitter.com/The07thNetwork/status/1119375011851034624https://twitter.com/The07thNetwork/status/1119375173315022849https://twitter.com/The07thNetwork/status/1119375386742349824https://twitter.com/The07thNetwork/status/1119379066354720768I think it's normal to have some doubts, it's going to be something different. Since it's still being made by Ryukishi07, I'll also have some hope that he still has some tricks up his sleeve to surprise us with.
>>21200808Sorry but at what point was Higurashi ever a KEY romance, or a romance of any kind? I don't remember seeing any amnesia or sick little sisters.As for the rest of your post, yeah fair enough. I just don't like the phrasing saying it's supposed to be action-focused. We have enough chuuni action VNs. Then again I should just have faith in Ryukishi.
>>21200828WH, and MG is taking care of steam distribution it seems.
>>21200834I wanted a new WTC, not a new RGD.
>>21200794Any comiket with a new touhou is a good comiket.
>>21200834Sadly a lot.
>>21200808Higurashi was a tinfoil hat type of mystery. A bit on the bullshit side, but very well foreshadowed. Fuck off, Dlanor.
Happy fart shart cum witch
>>21200849This.
>130 year old Okonogi with cyborg implantsMuh dick.
have we gotten confirmation that Ciconia is one game or not yet
>>21200872Why does Ryukishi love Okonogi so much
does anyone have the webm of Ange getting beaten up by men in suits?
>>21200873it better not be
does anyone have that picture of lambda talking about not liking to think?
>>21200873It seems all but confirmed.
>>21200596>(any information about Saku)I don't think so. I wonder if Witch Hunt will be translating Saku next after focusing on Ciconia. If Ciconia doesn't meet people's expectations for more WTC, hopefully Saku has something special in store.
what a dweeb.
>>21200898imagine how pissed off everyone would be if it was a Trianthology tier game
>>21200906I want to make this girl my wife. Any clues as to her location will be greatly appreciated.
>>21200872We've come so far from the Okonogi gardeners.
>>21200906That's Ryukishi
>>21200906Cute human!
>>21200934Not ugly enough to be Ryukishi.
If WTC5 is only slightly longer than Higanbana Ryukishi is finished. Bare minimum it needs to be RGD length but really it should be as long as Higurashi to actually be satisfying.
>>21200934ryukishi read erika
>>21200897
>>21200946I feel the same way
>>21200877Pretty much like biggs and wedge for FF series.
>>21200941Lmao he still believes that Ryukishi is a man.
>>21200954More like Cid, he's been there since ff2 came out.
>>21200906This reminds me of how Midori's classmates were all obsessed with the Umineko manga. Cute!It's weird how "Rokkenjima" existed as this high-brow classic play, "Seacats" was a shitty anime with good voice acting that everyone forgot about after three episodes and the "Seacats" manga was a violent story about murderous witches that kids weren't allowed to read.Was that supposed to be a commentary on how Ryukishi's stories have a lot of depth and heart but most people only know the edgy but fun adaptation of Higurashi or the forgettable trainwreck adaptation of Umineko?
>>21200946If it's Higanbana length it would mean he only called it WTC for the free popularity boostSeriously doubt he would do that though
>>21200914I don't think this will be all too different from Trianthology honestly.I'm pretty sure Ryuukishi's realised that only the western market buys his games now, and the best way to create interest in his new projects is to slap the WTC name on them (as this game is clearly WTC in name only).
>>21200950thanks
>>21200946I doubt he would have absolutely everything planned from the beginning. The actual mystery, plot and ending of the story, sure, but not the bulk of the episodes themselves. Higurashi was written like that and Umineko even more so.As long as the story isn't finished, it's too soon to consider it "short".
>>21200973no.
Is the voice acting in Umineko and Higurashi good?
Who cares about the name? I've enjoyed everything he's put out so far, so much that I struggle to even rank his four main works. I honestly find myself thinking "this one is definitely his best story" while I re-read them, only to change my opinion when I re-read a different one. They are all awesome, Higanbana included.If this is RGD lenght and we get to see Lambda and Bern, that's fine with me. I'd rather it be shorter than Umineko instead of trying to do exactly 8 episodes no matter what. Although it would be sweet if he really had enough ideas for 8 full arcs.
>>21201016Yeah
>>21201016Yes, but I recommend reading the novels as intended because they were clearly not meant to have voices. Reread them with voice acting if you want, once you know the story by heart and have enjoyed it properly.
>>21201016It's great. Umineko is full of A-list VAs.
>>21201016I like it, more so in the VN than the anime since they have more to work it and aren't being rushed to hell. Some VAs have a really massive range like Erika's who becomes almost unrecognizable when she goes from a quiet, innocent girl to a loud sadistic bitch later.Also good lord Jessica's VA can scream like a champ.
>>21201019People are afraid for not real reason that this is a quick cashgrab and only used the name for free sales.I can't even begin to imagine why people think he would do that
>>21201019Not everyone is a blind fanboy like you.
>>21201019Rather than the length I'm worried about it not being mystery-focused like other WTCs were. Just because I like spicy things doesn't mean I want my pudding to be spicy as well.
>>21201016Really good, but I have some pet peeves with it.The very first phone call in EP5 should definitely sound like an angry eunuch seeking revenge, but the voice acting makes him sound like Battler during every single phone call, including the first one. I never liked that. Also, what the fuck is up with Zepar's voice.Higurashi is amazing, but I can't stop associating Takano's VA with Eva. Eva literally hijacked Takano's voice in my mind.
>>21201019Some people expected a WTC when he said he was writing a new WTC.
>>21201019Higurashi had a super short 4th arc and a relatively short 9th arc that may as well be part of the main story. So it's technically 8 arcs long in total, just like Umineko.
>>21201042How am I a blind fanboy?
Reminder that Umineko wasn't exactly advertised as a deconstruction of the mystery genre with multiple layers of meta dimensions, omnipotent witch lolis and fight scenes
So which one should I read first?Higu or Umi?
Just trust Ryukishi. When has he ever let us down?
>>21201078naturally higurashi
>>21201074Oh, we know it will inevitably be stupid shit, it's just interesting that he's not pretending it's anything else this time.
>>21201078Trianthology.
>>21201078I suggest Higurashi first. Umineko subverts some expectations for those that read Higurashi first, but it's not necessary.
>>21201078What kind of question is that? Every single thing EVER should be read in release order, except if you are too much of a normie to appreciate older/weebier stuff and need something more polished to start with.If you are a fucking nerd, there is no point in skipping Higurashi. You will read both anyway. Umineko kind of spoils Higurashi, sets the wrong expectations and has tons of references that are supposed to make you smile but would leave you with a blank face if you didn't read Higurashi.
>>21201037This, it's Ryukishi not type moon after all.Fuck you Nasu.
>>21201079When he put his trust in Deen and Mangagamer.
>>21201092>>21201094>>21201081Oh, okay guys. The thing is that Higu's translation isn't finished yet. So I'm kinda unsure.
It doesn't matter if Ciconia surpasses all of Ryukishi's other works or becomes the worst thing he will ever put out. Love it or hate it, what really matters is the new memes we'll get from it.
Man, when it comes out it's going to be a mad scramble of everyone in this thread trying to read it first and spoil the others
>>21201099The 7th chapter is about to be released, apparently. By the time you get there, the last one should be out, since both of them have been translated for years and they were just too lazy to release them or something. And the epilogue chapter should come out relatively fast (that one was fan translated long ago, and while the translation wasn't anything special, it was competent and didn't have any of the stupid changes that the official releases made).I heavily suggest finding a way to undo the recent patch that changed all the songs in the first four arcs of Higurashi, though. While some are improved quality-wise, others are outright replaced and it really hurts because they were great. Especially Digital Network and Silver Mirror. The replacements just don't feel like Higurashi.
>>21201042Nobody is defending Ciconia, because nobody has read it. But everything Ryukishi wrote after Umineko has been just as good if not better in some aspects.
>>21200593I haven't tested it but I imagine the Steam releases probably don't use DRM. I got Umineko on GOG though so like I said I can't test it, maybe if someone here has the Steam version downloaded they could test it. If it doesn't use DRM then you can just download it through Steam and then you never have to use Steam again to play it. Chances are Ciconia will probably release on places other than Steam, like on GOG or mangagamer, but I don't know if that will happen at launch. Hopefully it will, I think the fact that they just say "it's coming out on Steam" is because 99% of people only care about Steam and it's easier to just say that even if it's coming out on other platforms.
>>21198306Damn, imagine this happening to her and all the lolis mocking her for having pubes!
Is it true that the Steam version of OMK doesn't let you skip the credits song? That's bullshit. Why?
>>21201229Unless a recent patch changed it, yes you can
George and Lewd Bunny are the best fighters by far.Ronove is ass.
>>21201139I disagree. Everything post Umineko has still been great, but nothing since has managed to reach those levels.
>>21201247Bern op
>both umineko and ciconia will be on steam before all of higurashi's chapters
>>21200409Main character of Sangeki Sandbox.
>>21201284I'm not even mad at this point, I just feel bad for Mangagamer.
This news is so exciting that I think I'll crack open a cold one, excuse me for a moment
I hope wtc5 takes a dark turn like spec ops the line
>>21201306Lmao i almost forgot about that colab.
I hope wtc5 takes a homoerotic turn.
https://mega.nz/#F!pwECTCbZ!2f-jeXETqcwUfig7p0m6ZgTranslation when?
>>21201612yes
>>21201658
>>21195941>>21196032I was like 10 people away from ryukishi's signature but they cut off the line. bleh.
>>21201712oof
If it's WTC5 I wonder if it will have a repeating time loop that resets each episode with different scenarios.
So will it or will it not have multiple episodes?
>>21201712That sucks. I always feel like they should have some sort of consolation prepared ahead of time for such situations. I remember when I was a kid I once went to a book signing. Even when they had to call a close to face-to-face signings, they distributed a bunch of premade stickers with the author's signature to those who didn't get a chance.
>>21201751Honestly, this is much more important to me than the mystery aspect. We already had a genre shift between Higurashi and Umineko, so I was ready for more of that. But for me, the episodic format with repeating scenarios is the most characterized part of the franchize. Without that it just doesn't feel like WTC, but closer to RGD or Higanbana.
>>21201099Theyve all be fully translated for several years, this is just a new and improved translation. Just read the original tl for 7 and 8.
>>21201221drm wouldnt matter anyways, just use smartsteamemu to run it
>>21201825I don't think it will be mystery-less, Ryukishi already said so. The difference is that, from what I gather, the answer will be a lot less cryptic. Whether the "answer" in this scenario means the culprit, the secret intentions of the people in power or both remains to be seen. My guess is that the first episode will reveal the culprit much like Takano was shown at the end of Minagoroshi and the next episodes will be the MC coming up with ways to solve everything without anyone dying.
>>21201938Yeah, he already said its not directly a mystery you'll have to solve but a story you'll have to decrypt; hence the Evangelion name drop. I for one love the latter more. Once a mystery is solved, its over and done, but a story that needs decrypting can be interpreted and investigated for decades, each person bringing more to the table.
>>21201938Yeah, it will probably be more like Higurashi.Umineko rewarded you for thinking and figuring out what was going on. But if you didn't figure it out, most of the story would fly over your head and you wouldn't understand why the characters feel like they do. That's what made many people hate on Umineko and sabotage his following works.
>>21200498Before Higurashi ever came to the West, much less Steam, Alchemist already told Ryukishi to fuck off with the nudityHe's not going to do it again
it begins.
>>21202107Please don't turn Ryukishi into a stoner, I don't want him to get thrown into prison

>>21202989Göbelin Tapestry

>>21198956>>21199006Can you recall which site you were browsing when you saw that K1 birthday sketch?
>>21203291I'm pretty sure what i was checking was a site which was starting to use hindu language and japanese at once but i checked it from top to bottom and found nothing on that 410 anon
>>21203291>Can you recall which site you were browsing when you saw that K1 birthday sketch?Most likely pixiv. Can't recall if it ended up in my recommended artworks to check out or if i skimmed over it while checking out individual artists one by one that did siesta410 fanarts. Want me to link my recently created pixiv that i set aside for the 410 hunt?
>>21203339Sure, I guess.Though I could never find that pic whenever I looked through the Higurashi and Keiichi tags.
>>21203367You forgot the main one.
>>21203432I was just circling the bullis, not the one to be bullied
>>21203367Why are the squads in the middle row so much better than the rest?Is it just the smugs?
>>21203442She's going to be a bulli like Lion
>>21203367>>21203432I love Erika
>>21203471It's statistically proven that the majority of people who have read and enjoyed Umineko are hopeless perverted masochists and thus the are attracted to smug. In the above image where I circled the bullies, in top and bottom row there are 2 bullies while in the middle row there are 3 thus it is more likely that you'd be attracted to the characters in the middle row.Unless you prefer Higurashi over Umineko, then you enjoy mating press and you need Jesus.
I just realized that the reason behind there being no squads of many countries is either because they got fucking destroyed in WW3 or assimilated by other countries
>>21203349make sure it isn't the follows that you investigate but the artists galleries under the bookmarked images. i do distinctly remember i was even weirded out seeing a pic of keichi with his mother and father coz those two characters are hardly ever depicted in any shape or form. although i didnt click the full image of it only just an enlarged thumbnail but that itself stuck in my mind. if it was in a sankaku gallery or if i came by it during my google image search fenzy, we are out of luck. won't delete my browsing history though.https://www.pixiv.net/bookmark.php?id=39437279&p=2&rest=show

Doesn't matter how long of a time passes, if there is a seacat thread there will be a point in time during that thread that it will be raided by Erikaposters. It's a universal constant. Brings a smile to my face.

SAVE SATOKO YOU USELESS CHILD SERVICES GOD FUCKIGNGHDSFJGKL;DSFHGLSJThat was the most tugofwar like emotion I've felt for a while. Like, you pull out all the stops yet it's still not enough.
this is my boyfriend mitake miyao
>>21204284What do you read rn son?
>>21204303meow
>>21204284It's her own fault for lying about it and then pushing the poor stepdad off a cliff.This is why Rosa couldn't find a boyfriend. Men are afraid of having their lives ruined by crazy psycho stepdaughters.
>>21203880These characters are actually canon. There are several mirror worlds in Higanbana and each one flips a different thing, including gender.
>>21204325I agree with this guy. He talks sense.
>>21203535Erika with-
>>21203954Oh, I remember making that. Glad someone saved it.
>>21204344This poor bastard got his BROTHER killed by the little bitch and his WIFE killed by the little bitch's beta cuck brother.Can you really blame him for lashing out at Satoggo? Dude may be a dick, but he's still human. He has his buddies that he invites over to drink and shit. He's also intelligent because he knows how to play the clusterfuck that is Mahjong. Did you learn nothing from Umineko?
Can someone here post that pasta about why the OG sprites are better than the PS3 ones? I agreed with the guy but forgot his main points
>>21204406That's right, that's right! Teppei did nothing wrong! Justice for Teppei! #FreeTeppei
>>21204415Most of them are quoted in this post>>/jp/thread/S18810098#p18823854I agree with most of it, but I've grown to tolerate the alternate art. It has its own charm. I just wouldn't choose to play with it because it's awkward.
>>21192134HEY I made a similar discovery recently. I love S4 league which features a lot of DJMAX songs and wanted to know the name of a track associated to my favorite (namely Connest-2) and was pleasantly surprised to find the name zts behind it. Cool thinghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fh9n_pLiga8
>>21204415
>>21204438Thanks, I remember being in that exact same thread
>>21204444Associated to my favorite map*
>>21204444I wish there was an easy way to find all zts songs, they are all over the place
>>21204477If you're on Animebytes there should be something there. I remember picking up bits and pieces
>>21204444>I love S4 league>4444Fucking based dead game poster
Beato!
>>21204506That's chick Beatrice if I've ever seen one with that innocent smile
>>21204406This but unironically. I totally agree with Irie's philosophy of hating the sins instead of the sinner.Teppei should totally be punished for his actions, but bashing his head in is too much.
>>21204438>That's why Umineko loses something when you add voices. Some elements of the story rely on the fact that you are READING a voiceless sound novel. Same reason why an anime adaptation would never work at all. Umineko relies on narration and text, you can't just translate that shit to a visual medium.>The text describes Shannon and Will's conversation as normal. She is supposed to sound normal. No robot voices or sound distortions. AND YET, there is a weird, incomprehensible, tense atmosphere as they talk.>This is something that can only be achieved with text and text alone. You have to imagine what that feeling would be like, helped by the wEIRd TeXT.>Once you add voices, they fill in the blanks and prevent you from imagining that indescribable feeling described in the narration. You can actually HEAR Shannon's voice. You can't imagine the sound yourself. And she sounds perfectly normal. It's a let down. But if she sounded like a robot, it would be a let down too.>It only works without voices, because your mind is confused and can't quite imagine what the narration is describing.>It's like the Nothing in the shitty Neverending Story movie. It's a concept that gets ruined once you try to show it visually.I agree.
how do I become a cute witch
How much of a loser do you have to be not to realize that your waifu has NO tits?He literally never touched her tits after being her boyfriend for 3 years?
>>21204336The mirror chapter was silly as hell, but it developed Higanbana and Marie the most. It's so weird.
>>21204528Depending on what type of a witch you'd like to be!If you want to be a cute one then I suggest you practice making things disappear. Witches who make things disappear are the cutest, so practice that!
>>21204539
>>21204520You would feel bad for a giant cockroach even after it fatally wounded an adorable bunny? Empathy is based on cuteness.
>>21204526This anon cannot be more right
>>21204552George is an incel in denial.
>>21204552Yasu killed everyone because she believed in the afterlife. George didn't fuck her because he believes in chastity before marriage.Fuck religion, seriously. If only this cuck had tried to fuck Shannon, she would've been forced to come clean and reveal her secrets. Then this cuck would've told her that she loves her no matter what.All you had to do to survive is try and fuck the woman you are about to marry. What's wrong with you?
>>21204438>Original everything. Trust me. After you finish the whole thing, you'll undertand why it was a good idea and how foolish the PS3 apologists are.>This is a sound novel. Your are not supposed to be looking at pretty sprites and detailed backgrounds. They are only there for you to occasionally glance at them and understand the mood of the characters and the general atmosphere of the scene. The original sprites and backgrounds do that job A LOT better, are more charming and there is nothing distracting or "off" about them. The PS3 assets are plagued by weird pespectives, unsubtle facial expressions that sometimes fail to convey they emotion they are supposed to (especially in Higurashi) and feel really empty and lazy (i.e. Rosa's phone). The extra detail actively detracts from the experience and makes it obvious that the backgrounds are being recycled for completely different places.I couldn't put it better
>>21204564he's an ex incel who just took the chad redpill
>>21204593Basado y rojo-empastillado.
>>21204586there is a very real chance that george would't love her after the fact and throw her under the bus
I saw the Ace Attorney PS3 edits which are very good but where are the OG Ace Attorney edits
>>21204604He does love Shannon, but he bet everything on this one girl he barely knows. George was expecting to marry the underage girl he's been stalking since she was 10 and live out his waifu dreams, so finding out that she's barely a girl and doesn't even have a vagina would be soul-crushing.He should have really tried to date normal girls before deciding that the first girl to ever show interest in him must be the love of his life. Now he'll die without ever touching a real pussy unless he cheats on the waifu he truly loves. He's on his way to becoming the new Rudolf.
Why doesn't edit anon just lewd the RGD sprites instead of wasting time lewding the horrid Steam Umineko sprites?
>>21204665Because I like Umineko more?
What do you think is the funniest moment for each character?Rosa being traumatized by a stuffed turkey on her birthday.Basically every time Genji says "INDEED" in a solemn voice, especially during that action-packed fight vs zombie Kanon.Hideyoshi reminiscing about the Americandies and their <Death by Hanging>.Rudolf saying "let's tense up our assholes and go".
>>21204676But Umineko can't be lewded unless you use ugly sprites that barely resemble the characters.
What the fuck kind of name is MION? I've never seen a real jap with that name.
>>21204687Goat vs KraussI'll never forget you Goat-kun. You still got to come back to your little imoutou damn it! You hear me? She's out there waiting for you to come back
>>21204687For me it was a simple line of Rudolf in Episode 5 where Battler supposedly found the gold. Was something like "Great job, kid!" with his original smiling sprite. I couldn't help but laugh what a fucking legend of a man
>>21204695PS3 would be fine.
>>21204795
>>21204687Rudolf had quite a few smart ass lines that were gold. One that comes to mind for me is during Episode 4, when Kinzo shows up in front of his children, berates them all for being unworthy to be the next head of the family, and then tries to get them to convince him that each grandchild is worth at least ten billion yen and worthy to be his successor.Natsuhi and Eva make a serious appeal, but Rudolf gives a brutally backhanded compliment for Battler.
>>21202513Why people on Sankaku hate Umi so damn much?
>>21204890Yeah but he told a nasty joke to Natsuhi.
>>21205070bitter cause no good porn
>>21205070Why would anyone with half a brain visit sankaku?
>>21205108>>21205138for the comment sections. i sometines just like to enjoy the shitfest other anons make under some articles.
i just want to cuddle with cravat-kun
They still haven't said anything about Ciconia being multiple episodes. Maybe it's one long game instead?
>>21204890Why does Rudolf look like a suave Spanish bullfighter?
>>21204734>>21176574
>>21205810Because he's suave and Kyrie can be a bit of a bull in bed
>>21197560The Shannon sprites with Beato's tool faces are legitimately scary. I remember seeing one or two edits of the same kind last year or in 2017 but with the OG sprites. They are so unsettling despite being what Yasu actually tries to look like. It's funny
>>21197560Manga version of the confession pretty much does that job.
>tfw ywn have a lovely and comfy relationship with Erika where you teach her what love is Not like this...
>>21205922I want to remind Battler what Shannon is feeling to him each year and then tell yasu that she's about to meet Battler soon when he comes back and after doing all of that i'd see happy sayo and battler kissing in the beach and nobody would get hurt anymore besides george the man who was cucked to deathluckily it's the end of the thread so nobody will really care>>21205959it does ?i mean for each episode where the battler on the island is meeting sayo and after all those murders of his loved ones he's meeting shannon which turns out to be sayo who tells him what happened and what's about to happen, i just want to know what's his reaction would be and what his last moments were, would he kill her, cry, hug and be sorry for what he has done ?there's so much possibilities and what battler could do that we don't know exactly, do we want to know or can we guess what he was about to do in last minutes of the explosion ?
I love how the silly fanservice maid turned out to be the most important character. I though she'd be ignored after the first few episodes, like Hideyoshi or something.
>>21205961do you know what love is exactly anon or would you just hope everything would turn alright in your scenario ?
>>21205982Why the fuck was he after Satoko? Does he truly believe that the Sonozakis bribed a little girl to murder her own parents?
>>21205982post the one with hanyuu
>>21205994I can't define something like love but I'd do my best so that she's happy and that she trust me
>>21206003Clue hunting for leads is my guess. Every year there's a murder so it would be in his best interest to not let any stone be left unturned
>>21206017What if it was Dlanor who was about to show Erika what love is truely about, would you want it to be you instead or would you allow it beacuse Erika's well being is more important to you anon ?
>>21205986>I want to remind Battler what Shannon is feeling to him each year and then tell yasu that she's about to meet Battler soon when he comes back and after doing all of that i'd see happy sayo and battler kissing in the beach and nobody would get hurt anymore besides george the man who was cucked to death>luckily it's the end of the thread so nobody will really careYou are a great anon and I love you
>>21206003"You never know, it's the S-group we are talking about! They might do that! I wouldn't put it past them".That's literally his throught proccess.
What was Takano's motivation for helping Keiichi get to his house?
>>21204506Beato a cute
>>21206033Of course I'd want it to be me and I'll probably be mad, but if Erika is more happy with Dlanor then I don't really have the choice, I'm not so petty that I would deny someone happiness for my own
>>21206036Thanks anon but if it's about to really end i had a dream about sayo and the feeling of how lonely she felt just hurt my heart, i just wish she could have felt love she deserved with battler instead of being alone all her life and then hearing about how he forgot about her, it just hurt me on physical level and makes me wish i could help those both achieve what they couldn't do in the vn, in the end when they were both drowning in the sea, the battler we know wanted to spend last moments with her in a warming embrace but i know it can't happen and both were lost in the story.
>>21206065Batora didn't love Shannon, he only felt guilty for giving his creepy eunuch incest uncle false hopes and driving it mad.
The next thread better have a Miyao op. It's his(her(male)) turn.
>Ange will never put an end to her own lifeWhy live?
The Ushiromiya name used to be a noble and respected family name.Ange ruined it by letting a bunch of bullies humiliate her and refer to her as "Ushiromiya-san" while they stomp all over her dignity.What would her ancestors think?
>>21206033Not that anon, but in my opinion people who don't pursue their own happiness in parallel with the one you love then you're a delusional fool. Remove any obstacles
>>21206113If you don't find happiness by yourself and depend on your waifu to make you happy, you turn into an insufferable obessive faggot like George.
>>21206064It's good to know you aren't blinded by your own ambitions anon, caring about a person you love is more important then pretending to be a hero, i wish Erika can also find the love she searched for before she became a piece for bern and maybe with certainty that if she tries to search for her truth about love she can find joy in her life again instead of being intellectual rapist>>21206077Even if that was the case he wouldn't almost drown himself for that>>21206113Maybe in universe were that anon is with Erika that could happen but you forget about times when he needs to help Erika get stabilized, show her kindness and love in her moments of weakness and be prepared to face the challenges of her attitude she got after her boyfriends experience, it's like lions case when him being alive was 1 in 2,578,917, how much would it be for Erika with anon and Erika with dlanor or other person who could help her out ?, if you want to be selfish you could help her as an anon but depending on which is more propably the alternative giving the best outcome should be used if he cares about Erikas happiness, otherwise what's the point
>>21206128Its called give and take for a reason. In my experience most humans aren't some angelic beings that derive happiness from seeing others being happy. Thus it's the duty of both to keep each other happy
>>21206140Shouldn't be saying you love someone unless you're willing to sacrifice everything to be with the other person
>>21206156that isnt love thats toxic dependency
>>21206173you define love then
>>21206182what i have for you anon
>>21206156I am willing to sacrifice my time and me being her knight in shining armor, this way of thinking is toxic and it isn't solving the problem, it just makes a person dependant on you and pretending the problem is fixed, Erika needs a person who understands her way of thinking and is willing to help her in her hardships.My love for Erika is for her to be a happy person again that doesn't have to ruin life of others beacuse her life is in shambless beacuse of her unhappy love and her believing in one truth only
>>21206190Well jeez, you got me blushing
>>21206202>>21206190You both

Beach date with Erika
>>21206057Wasn't that how she met her grandfather, picking her up in his car in the middle of a downpour? Maybe she felt nostalgic and did it on a whim.
>>21206448She likes to take risks and mess with people. That's why she told the mountain dogs to use the wrong corpse instead of looking for a replacement.
>>21206337That makes her clinically a moron, which means she has mild mental retardation. Her parents took too long to conceive her, even Kinzo's incest babies probably turned out better than she did.
USHIROMIYA LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSA
Thank you mangagamer for releasing Ciconia at the same time as Japan. I will be looking forward to playing the first episode in late 2020 when it comes out in English
>>21206591WH has been translating ciconia for the past 2ish years ago. It's english release is gonna be on time
>>21206640>having faith >from the company that STILL hasn't finished Higurashi or released fucking Sengoku Rance
>>21206648you're mixing up mangagamer and witch hunt friend
>>21206673Oh I'm sure it will be translated by the time it releases in Japan. That's not in question. Otherwise they wouldn't have announced it.But you are dreaming if you think Mangagamer can release a game on time
>>21206640They stated they were contacted about a new WTC, not ciconia, so that was just the plan.Also, Ryukishi didn't announced he was done with the script, so it is very likely WH didn't translate during 2 whole years.
>>21206685WH is responsible for the translation, so it isn't going to be a slow trainwreck like what's going on with higurashi. They prolly only have to put the game on steam, which would take far less time than WH working their ass on the script.
>>21206688>a new WTC, not ciconiaWhat other new WTC is there?
>>21206697Again, the translation wont be the issue. Its mangagamer's ability to pull everything together and actually getting the game on steam/ technical issues that will inevitably delay it
is swigum here?
>>21204438I think there is a value in the voice acting though. Ep. VII's tea party for example is a fantastic job.Definitely worth on re-reads.
magic is real
>>21204890I fucking love Rudolf, he's one of my favourite characters. If only he were a cute girl he would probably be my actual favourite.
>>21206047I just realized that there's parallels between Kinzo and the Sonozakis in that regard
>>21206688This is Umineko-level twisted logic. What if the new WTC isn't Ciconia?
723 posts in a /seacats/ thread???it's moar likely than you think
>>21207773Wait until Ciconia is released and see how much the threads will grow. This time it was only an announcement.
>>21204890Shit, I just realized I left out the best part that's suppose to go in the middle of that.

>>21206285>>21206288Jessica lived on rokkenjima, she could've easily figured out the shkannon trick, and she would acceot her condition no matter what. The best outcome for yasu was to reveal everything to Jessica
>>21207990I'd fap to that
>>21208047Doujins when?
>>21208060Sadly never
