How exactly was Erika created, did she have a vessel irl? Or is she entirely fiction created by Bern?

>>46164372
As far as i'm aware, she was just a random girl irl who fell from a ship and drowned. It's not confirmed if she had the same personality as piece Erika.

>>46164390
well unless her backstory was entirely fake she broke up with her boyfriend out of nothing but unprovable suspicions and paranoia, so the implication is that the piece bern created was at least fundamentally like the original girl, at most exaggerated to become an 'intellectual rapist' instead of just being a massively paranoid schizo who fell off a yacht on her birthday

https://www.quotev.com/quiz/12895359/Whos-your-Umineko-No-Naku-Koro-Ni-girlfriend

Repost. Do it if you dare.

>>46164372
Erika existed in reality yeah, she fell off her cruise at the same time of the family conference and the mere chance of her drifting afloat on Rokkenjima is what allows her to be a player on the gameboard. The fantasy interpretation is that Bern likely goaded her into jumping off but the reality interpretation is that it could've been an accident or she was suicidal, up to you what you want to believe. Nobody knows what Erika was truly like, she's steered by third person by Bern the entire game, but her past relationship troubles implies the Erika we know likely isn't far off with her philosophy from the real Erika. When Bern says she'll bring her back from ''The depths'' in EP8, she means the bottom of the ocean, since that's most likely where Erika died.

Erika in the story is pretty much born out of Ange, it's why you see her in the trick ending when Ange pretty much becomes the Erika we know in reality. She's born out of the 12 years of suffering and hate Ange built up inside herself, causing her to become overly cynical and only see the world throughout a single lens. She's Umineko's philosophical villain, the counterargument to the argument of love Umineko makes, and the choice at the end is pretty much choosing if she wants to continue being cynical and build that Erika inside her or discard her philosophy in favor of love.

>>46164435
Erika picked the wrong choice btw. Should've taken the Erikapill.
>Verification not required.

FUCK. Curse my lack of attention...

>>46164463
>>46164471
Your subconcious wanted to prevent you from making that post... I will always pick the magic ending, I hate seeing how cynical Ange becomes in the trick ending and it's such a depressing outcome in a narrative sense.

>>46164471
I'd take the Angepill any day.

The ange posting is starting to get annoying.

>>46164577
Don't say this out loud. It makes them do it more. Just ignore it like the Rikabot.

>>46164956
It has beautiful soul.
Luckily after Ryukishi sacrificed his "first born" to the devil in exchange for immortality, Tomato went down into Hell guided by the archangel Michael and was able to lead it back out.

>>46164978
>Tomato went down into Hell guided by the archangel Michael and was able to lead it back out.
lol.

>>46164978
Poor Satoshi. Shion can be there legally and physically, but how can she deal with the reality that he killed someone? With a baseball bat. I think there's a whole potential story there.

>>46164463
>>46164496
Ange could only see two answers but I like to believe there is a more healthy way to stay skeptical of the world while having faith in loved ones.
The trick ending is interesting in that seeing the ghost of someone who isn't there happens in that end as well. So it really is pick your own illusion.

>>46164978
Do people actually like Meguri? I thought the ending was worse than sotsu and that's saying something considering how awful Gou and Sotsu were as a whole.

>>46165013
Would be a good story for Oldkishi to tell.

>>46165020
The ending was in-character and not a retarded DBZ fight.
It's not a good story overall of course, but I like the ending for giving dignity back to the characters.

>>46165033
>In-character
The entire In-character bit goes out the window considering the entire story is about Satoko murdering her friends. Also while Rika being retarded is in character for her, I don't believe she would continue to waste thousands of fragments for the perfect conditions to appear, that just erases all her character development she got in Minagoroshi and Matsuribayshi. I also found the entire club coming together to stop Satoko to be very cringe inducing and forced especially Satoshi somehow waking up. It felt like awful fan-service shoved into the end of a awful story to make you forget about how retarded the entire plot is and just point at your screen and scream that Satoshi is back without any heart or meaning.

>>46165020
The ending of Meguri is great. It's extremely open ended and depressing, and you can't end a story like Gou any other way. I liked how Rika acknowledged how fucked up she herself is, and how she let her friends die over and over for nothing. The whole work has a satisfying "what was the point?" feel, but I'm a sicko who likes stuff like that.

>>46165054
Shitoko is a cringelord who always doubts her own actions and suffers for it.

>>46165020
Meguri is even more hated online than Sotsu, I'm just glad it's over so we can all forget about the shitshow Gou was and how it ruined the characters we've come to love and care for over the year.

>>46165054
Actually it feels like two writers fighting over the same plot's ending. It's deep in a meta sense it's interesting for someone who already lost all hope for it being good. The looping you're talking about is baked into the premise. In the ending specifically Rika forgiving Satoko and living on is 100x more in character than "let's destroy the world together" and then suddenly we're witches now and we'll fight forever because Bern and Lambda??
>>46165072
>hated online
The Japs are singing a petition right?

>>46165020
i disliked it because it still never managed to bring a good justification to the question of why it even existed in the first place
it doesn't bring in the birth lambda and bern in a different way, it doesn't solve the eua problem or do anything to link her to featherine outside of appearance, it might as well not even have been written because it does fuck all really
sotsu at least had the INTENTION of 'solving' several plot threads that were dangling in the WTCverse, even if they were completely unsatisfactory and even made characters feel worse in some ways it at least meant there was a justification to its existence, and meguri doesn't have that

>>46165104
Recency bias. Sotsu is nearly unwatchable except when Satoko is rolling around in the dirt and capping people. Meguri is much better regardless of your fanfic expectations of purpose.

>>46165114
>fanfic expectations of purpose
what the fuck's that even meant to mean? did you think i was complimenting sotsu by saying it made characters worse somehow?

Both Meguri and Sotsu are shit and I ignore the existence of both.

>>46165013
>Satoshi kills abusive older female relative
I think Shion of all people would mind this the least, considering how much she dislikes another certain old bitch in the village

>>46165170
I messed up my original post a bit. I actually wondered how Satoshi himself would deal with it, but how Shion would handle it is also a valid thought exercise. The psychological trauma combined with lingering bits of Hinamizawa Syndrome would be neat. Satoko would also eventually learn the truth, and that would color their relationship.

>>46165196
Yeah, Satoshi and Satoko are the only ones whose main sins remain even in miracle worlds like Matsuribayashi. No turning the clock back on that, so it's an interesting angle to look at. Where the rest of the gang could overcome their mistakes through the loops, the Hojos just have to face them and move on. But with the support of everyone I think they can.

Even though Satoshi murdering his aunt was borne out of a desire to protect Satoko, rationalizing murder/violence is the opposite point of Higurashi.

>>46165215
Saikoroshi kind of drove this point home already, that happiness can be built on suffering. Keiichi, Rena, Mion & Shion, they all have to live with their past sins that can't be reversed as well, Keiichi's BB gun, Mion and Shion's identity swap and Rena's past destructive behaviour. Their sins aren't as severe but they still committed them. But that doesn't mean they can't move on and be happy despite that once they acknowledge they have to atone for them.

>>46165244
I don't think that's quite what Higu was trying to say. The message gets muddled by Hanyuu ranting about sin and forgiveness in 8, but it's not about the world or even people themselves forgiving their own sins. It's an (anime optimism) idea of friends understanding each other, and forgiving each other's sins.

>>46165244
I guess that's true to a degree. The lesson Rika learns can apply to them all regardless of what they went through. The difference is that the other kids' acts still affect the world they're in, while Rika is more concerned about her own outlook on whatever fragment she's in and the guilt of leaving behind all those worlds. Of course, the other kids already look at it from a more human perspective, whereas Rika is moving on from those countless lost fragments and trying to live as a human.

>>46165293
I dunno, obviously friendship, communication and mutual support is the main theme of Higurashi, but forgiving yourself is just as much of a theme to me. Forgiving each other's sins is used as a stepping stone to forgiving yourself.
I think this shines through pretty clearly in Satoko's guilt over Satoshi and refusal to forgive herself, or the twins' mutual guilt in the pain caused by the twin switch.

>>46165293
Oh, I don't mean it being Higu's sole message, Higu has a lot of themes about forgiveness, empathy, understanding etc, so does Umineko. It's just one of the points Saikoroshi in particular tries to make, the argument that a fragment without sin wouldn't neccesarily turn out for the better or the worse and that happiness can be achieved no matter your past as long as you learn from your mistakes.

>>46165359
Also, Maria puts this quite literally in Umineko. It always struck me as a line very relevant to wtc as a whole.

"Becoming happy doesn't mean accepting your current misfortune. It means creating new happiness within your current misfortune"

>>46165337
"Forgiving yourself" is conceptually poison to me. Pure wank.

>>46165435
I'm not really sure what you mean by that, people go through shit and blame themselves for it.

>>46165435
If you're looking for overly cynical works, 07th expansion vn's probably arent for you

>>46165462
Cynicism and Narcissism. Only two options. Good to know.

>>46165435
Atonement is a better phrase maybe.
You're probably thinking "oh I did a bad thing. I forgive myself!"
But if you're a sinner how do you separate yourself from the sin and overcome it? If you don't separate yourself from your sins you'll be guilty forever. Forgiving yourself is separate from finding forgiveness from others. Regardless of whether they forgive you, you have to overcome something within yourself.

>>46165016
I feel like Erika appearing in the trick ending was less Ange actually envisioning her and more just a narrative nod to her becoming just like Erika, it'd be a shame if she didn't appear because choosing trick pretty much affirms all of Erika's beliefs. Ange denies the chance of her family ever returning and the love they had for them, choosing to believe whoever did it must be purely a villain, and she'll likely forever resent Eva in that ending too. There are of course much more than just 2 ways to view the world but the magic ending is what Ange herself needed in order to move on and live a happy life imo, I don't see it as all that unhealthy because it's basically just an argument in favor of faith in people, especially those you care about.

It's focused on a character I don't care much about(at least, not nearly enough to lead a story, it's very disconnected from the main story/cast, and it was released at the worst time(alongside several other Higu manga).
Who is this for?

>>46170804
I tried to give it a read but it's just really uninteresting, moreso than most other post Saikoroshi Higurashi content, the fact it barely gets mentioned anywhere says enough about it. The ugly artstyle anon mentioned doesn't help either.
