Usually in DID, you have an original personality that is "stronger" than the others and who created the others for some reason.

>> No.4048204

I still don't think ShKannon makes much sense unless there was anything in the text to indicate that they look alike. Anime style drawing is especially prone to sameface and there's the added difficult of Ryu07's drawing style being rather simple that I don't really think you can draw conclusions like "they look similar" from the sprites without violating the Knox rule about disguises and twins. Beyond the idea that the sprites look somewhat similar there is little to nothing to indicate that Kannon or Shannon could pass for the other easily in the text of episodes 1-5, no comment on 6 since I haven't read it yet.

And ShKannontrice is just too easy. It solves far too much in one swipe, but the mechanism is too damn convoluted.

>> No.4048206

>>4048103
They were not fictional. The whole point of winning this game isn't explaining that magic do or don't exist. It's to prove that murders were possible by human means alone. Every episode took place in different kakera but they all really happened. Shanon and Kanon remembered previous games in Ep. 4. It doesn't matter if magic was really used as long as GM left enough place for human culprit to exist and followed the "Truth".

If it turns out everything that happened on the gameboard was a 100% fiction then all character development, interactions, love and everything else never happened. Then what the hell was the point of showing this to us? All the characters we know never really existed. They are just a fiction inside a fiction created by a fictional writer. It would mean 3/4 of the whole Umineko never happened.

EP4 Battler would probably freak out, seeing that he's basically turned into Kinzo, albeit a much more attractive version of Kinzo.

EP6 Battler would be even more sad, because he can see a version of himself that's slightly less crushingly depressed. EP6 Battler would likely also rage a little bit, because he knows that, depending on when in EP4 the other Battler is from, he's either very recently killed Beato or he's taking their time for granted.

Or EP6 Battler would ditch EP4 Battler and go looking for a less dead Beato.

Then why is there constant mention of "The Witch's Tale" or, I will weave a new "game". You don't weave games, you weave tales. The whole point of Rokkenjima being a closed circle where nothing gets in or gets out is that you can apply any interpretation you want to it.

The fact that there's a game master or story teller supports this. She sets up the pieces, writes out their interactions and creates the murder scenarios. And pieces can't be made to act against their nature. So, all that development you've stated is still possible, is still real.

Hell. Remember Illusion Beato's big speech at EP5? Where she stood up for Natsuhi even if she's a piece? Even if she can just wait for a new game? Pieces still matter, their stories still matter.

And all character development that sticks happens in the Meta World any way, which isn't written. What we usually get on the board are new back stories.

There is one hole in ShKanontrice theory. There are 18 persons and at the same time 17 people on the island. If Kanon count as person but don't count as human than that makes sense, but then what about Beatrice? If she's a personality same way Kanon is Erika shouldn't be able to say 18 persons in red.

That wasn't the basis of my argument. This was.

My reason for doubting Shkanon.

This is a slightly insane argument. So bear with me.

Let's talk about birth certificates. Even if a person has multiple personas in him, his birth certifciate only contains one name. This is the name recognized by the government and society.

Let us say that Shannon's birth name is Sayo deMaid. That is the name that society recognizes as referring to the unique collection of bones, organs, and meat that is Shannon.

If Kanon shares the unique collection of bones, organs, and meat that is Shannon, how can it be said that Kanon is the only one who can use the name Kanon?

Even if Kanon stands there in front of society, he will not be recognized as Kanon the independent individual, rather he will still be Sayo deMaid, wearing bindings and boys clothes. He has no valid paperwork qualifying him as an independent person.

Even if Kanon exists inside the head of Sayo as an independent being, the body that they both use is identified in the paperwork as Sayo.

Even if the personalities are different, the body is still recognized as Sayo, and it can be said that Sayo shares the name Kanon.

That violates the Red. "The only one who can claim Kanon's name is the person himself!" and "A different person cannot claim his name!"

Basic assumptions in my argument.

The labeling of the body the is turning point for all this, that's why I brought up the example of official paperwork labeling the body as Sayo. It identifies a certain body, as a person.
By assigning and recording a name to something, you validate and confirm it's existence. A sack of bones and meat gains an identity, that sack of bones gains a name. It's why people without names or who don't leave records behind can be said to be "non-existent". It's pretty important. That's why I consider the name "Sayo" as an integral and important part of the sack of bones, and cannot be separated from it.

A person's body is part the a person and vice versa.

My argument was, since there is only one body, and that body is recognized and recorded as a certain person, even if Kanon claims his name as Kanon for himself, he will be forced to share that name with Sayo, because that body is Sayo, and the body he is using is Sayo's.

Because it is a serious issue to him and it's not a joke. His son left him for 6 years because he cheated on Asumu. How do you think his son is going to react when he finds out the same mother isn't actually his mother. Rudolf is obviously scared and Kyrie even notices this in EP 1.

Give me a Shkanon/trice end where all personas are happy, and I won't care. Leaving the alternate personas to rot on the other hand would be needlessly cruel. Realistic, yes. But very fucking cruel after we've gotten six episodes to get acquainted and learn more about their inner psyche.
