Shannon had killed kinzo and servants before that time and blew up the boat from afar.

Gentlemen, I am of the opinion that Kanonshannontrice is a bit TOO obvious. Do keep in mind that the fact that simply because Kanonshannontrice is not spelled out blatantly for us, it in no way means it isn't obvious.
An author knows his audience, and thus I propose to you that these SUBTLE hints which prove Shannonkannontrice may not be as SUBTLE as we assume it to be. Simply put, we are being served a rather delicious herring, one of the color red.

Yeah, by Meakashi-hen everything was cleared, except the massacre. And here, by the sixth episode, we only know who created Beatrice.

Jessitrice was disproved by EP6, guys.

It's not just about Battler referring to her in third person. Battler described that he likes Jessica's type. So he liked her personality as it was.

Whoever created Beatrice deliberately gives her a new personality to fit Battler's tastes.

>> No.4049541

>>4049485

Likewise. I've been suspecting her since the beginning of Episode 5 when we found out just who knew about Kinzo's death. Jessica, being the only other resident on the island besides those we already know about, HAS to know he isn't alive anymore.

People could see that Battler never saw Shannon and Kanon together by episode 2.

>> No.4049574

After writing four chapters, the world’s layout has become very firm, so the actual writing went very smoothly. Instead, the hard part this time around was “arranging the hints”. We want Umineko to be a product people can enjoy as they think, and we paid a lot of attention to the balance between making it fun to read and including the right number of hints. Our goal is to write a story which gives hints to people who don’t know the truth and reaffirms the views of people who do understand. We could have written it so that the truth was plainly clear and everyone could understand it, but we believe that might have effected how interesting a read it would have become. The other difficult thing was positioning a message to the readers that “it is solvable at this point”. In classic mysteries, the “sign” is always the time that the detective says “I know who the culprit is”. However, I think we failed to add such a sign in Episode 4. You really should be able to solve it as a mystery with the information given up to and including Episode 4, but because we didn’t give a “sign”, people thought “there aren’t enough hints yet”, and few people seriously tried to solve the series. When we saw this, we thought “yes, a clear sign really is needed”, and a “sign” appeared in Episode 5 as: “And then………I……knew.”

Become the woman Battler desires.

I will give you the blonde hair he desires.
I will give you the blue eyes he desires.
I will give you the new personality he desires.
And... In place of me, love him.
And if possible, be loved by him.

I can no longer love him.
The feelings I could not obtain...the feelings I could not bear...please obtain them.

From this day forward, you are no longer the phantom of Rokkenjima who only plays tricks.
From this day forward, you are the ruler of Rokkenjima, and the one who waits for him to return until he fulfills his promise.

From this day forward, you will inherit that in my place.
Thus, from this day forward, you are no longer me.

I will push all of my suffering on to you... Please forgive me for being the only one to become happy.

From this day forward, you have the qualifications to detest everything.
You are the Golden Witch, Beatrice.

And someday.
Destroy everything, revive everything.
...Bless all lovers.

At that time.
...For both you and I to find happiness together...I will be wishing for from the bottom of my heart.

From this day on, you are not me.
From this day on, I am not you.
We will divide one soul, and share.
That naturally won't fill up one soul, but. (? not 100% sure about this line)

Funny how it happens every other game. I wonder why. Still, I've always believed that even if Shkannon is wrong, episode 6 is practically built to make it seem right. Which makes this episode hard.


This is all very well and good, besides, but you're missing the point. Your saying that Shkannon explains the evidence you use to support Shkannon in the first place. It's ridiculously circular. It doesn't explain ANY other mysteries besides itself. It would be incredibly pointless for Ryukushi to do this.

Kanon status in episode1 : Alive.
Probably killed another servant to fake the bodies or Hideyoshi and Nanjo both knew about this.

Kanon status in episode 2: disappears. Calls Nanjo and Kumasawa afterwards and kill them outside. Later, while Kanon's with George, Beato personality take over, making her commit suicide.

Episode 3: Dead. Kyrie/Hideyoshi killed her in the first twilight and snapped out.

Episode 4: Alive. Cosplays as Beato. Suicides after she found Battler forgot her.

Something to note is that the new Beatrice of Episode 6, the one created by Battler, initially speaks very much like the loli Beatrice from the beginning of Episode 3. As well, remember that Shannon was said to have acted more level-headed, more like an older sister, six years before. It's possible that the Shannon of the past was indeed more like loli Beatrice, but after separating "Beatrice" from herself, she lost some of the traits that she originally had.

...Those are my thoughts on the issue, at least.

OP here, wow, this thread still up?
Yes, Kanon hauls ass to the second floor, dresses up as Beato, quizzes Battler, hauls to where Shannon is and dies.
OUR WONDERFUL SOLUTION, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN!

The issue with the Shannon/Kanontrice theory is that is requires Kanon to be a master of disguise. It's never stated that Shannon and Kanon look similar, so we can't allow them to be the same person just because, we need something to indicate he'd be capable of doing this. And even if you CAN prove there is enough foreshadowing to accept that Kanon = Shannon, we have NOTHING to indicate an ability to dress up as Beato. All of the MEAT of this theory is coming from episode 6, and that's not good enough for me. I hope it isn't good enough for you, either.

>> No.4050043

>>4050034
Actually that theory pretty much imply that there's a body double for Shannon.
Used in every episodes.
Never disproved either.

That's what Battler saw.

>> No.4050044

Man Episode 6 fucked things up. Before even mentioning bombs was just a troll responce to the riddle while you got saged with "lol small bombs", and shkannon was a passing theory that was shot down several times.

Now it's more or less "hey wanna discuss episode 6?"

>> No.4050047

/only/ 17 people?
In that case, I have a very big problem with Shannon=Kanon.

The most important part of the end of episode 6 is not only the declaration of 17 people, but Furudo Erika's previous statement in red, "I am the island's 18th person."

But there are only 17 people, right?
We can then change this to meaning 18th person=non-existant
Therefore, Furudo Erika=non-existant. I can't see any room for doubt due to her previous red truth.
But then that means there has to be enough people to fill out all 17 slots.
Therefore, Shannon and Kanon have to be two different people, unless there was some wordplay in the red truth of "there are only 17 people."
I hope this theory checks out.

It may... but you're a fool for thinking the red text is truth. It's barely better than blue truth.

IIRC it's not "only exists", it's "only can exist"

So for MPD lolitrice

-Kinzo brings lolitrice from an orphanage to be Beatrice III
-Lolitrice meets Kumasawa (Virgilia´s vessel)
-Pony theory happens (or anything that forces kumasawa to hide lolitrice from kinzo)
-Lolitrice disguises herself as Shannon and starts working at the mansion, one day she meets Battler while not in disguise, then promise happens
-Lolitrice finally abandons Lolitrice´s persona completely and becomes Shannon, then later she creates Kanon´s persona
-Suit Beato is actually Shannon´s real self awakened, it takes over completely after the "death" of the other two personas and asks Battler about his sin

Not confirmed, but there was some foreshadowing for that. Like Kyrie saying she'd have forced Rudolf to marry her if Asumu'd lose the baby.
...if that end being the truth, Rudolf made her suffer for 18 years.

I assume this happens at the same time she creates "Beatrice" as a separate entity.

So, in other words... a total of four different personalities? The original, the Beatrice personality that was created using aspects of the original but primarily made to suit Battler's tastes, the Shannon personality made from the remnants of the original, and the Kanon personality?

you forgot the BOMB Beatrice. Probably because she's always silent and never appears.
