Forget about it.
Play Cross Channel and Sharin no Kuni instead.

Higurashi is like 70% slice of life, and I think only the first 4 arcs are translated.

Umineko is more of a clusterfuck, though. Pick your poison?

Yes. Translated. Witch-Hunt for Umineko. Mangagamer and Sonozaki Fugotachi for Higurashi. We're editing manga gamers release...check our thread.

I'm amused by clusterfucks. I tried the animu, so I have a vague idea of how trainwreck Umineko is, but I still wanted to try.

>>4257888
So Umineko is all done, and Higurashi only up to the 4th arc?

>>4257923
No, Higurashi is done with (only recently translated), Umineko is up to EP6 & translated up to EP5.

>>4257923
If by "all done" you mean "all available arcs translated" then no.

>>4257903
Prepared to get flamed by butthurt Umineko fans for that comment.
>>4257923
Also, Umineko is not done, 5 out of the 6 released Episodes are translated. No word on how many there will be in total.

>>4257903
There is no Umineko anime.

>Prepared to get flamed by butthurt Umineko fans for that comment.
What.

As an Umineko fan myself, that comment is absolutely true. It's a fucking trainwreck, you would have to be an idiot to say otherwise.

And, like a trainwreck, it's so hard to take your eyes away from it.

I didn't say that it sucks, as a matter of fact I like it. A lot of things are silly, confused or just plain don't make sense, but I still like it because it has a lot of interesting ideas. I love murder mysteries, meta-levels, science vs. supernatural debates, and i'm in love with the idea of "colored text" used to state different degrees of truth.

Well, if you like that, you'll love the VN. It makes way more sense than the anime (on some bizarre level). And yeah, the anime just presents some of the basic elements, but then they turn fucking awesome in the VN.
