I don't think anybody gives a damn after the shitfest that was Umineko.

Come back next year

>>7730280

Umineko was great. Not understanding it is just your fault

I fuckin enjoyed umineko. I don't give a flying fuck about what you people are thinking. Those epic battles, trolling and Beato laughter.. I will remember it forever
>>7730285
well it's only your opinion man.

>>7730309

>"You don't agree with my opinion? I guess you don't understand how deep and meaningful my poorly-constructed mystery game is."

I have facts to backup that Umineko is, in fact, masterpiece. But i don't feel like posting anymore, since you're typical ignorant sheep.

You're all mindless goats. Treating your opinions as facts or getting angered becuase of someone else opinion. Both are bad.

AHAHAAHAHAHAHAHA

DID WE TIMEWARP BACK TO THIRD GRADE

>>7730285

I remember seeing this exact same argument back when the Matrix sequels came out. TOOOO DEEEEP FOR YOUUUU, BAAATTLEEER.

No it's not. We understand it perfectly. And we see that it's fucking stupid horseshit.

BEATO IS SO DEEP CUZ THEYRS LIKE A MILLION VERIONS OF HER XDDDDDDDDDD

Begone

Those Umineko Apologists seem fundamentally incorrect about why the critics hate it.

It's not that we -don't- understand Umineko.

It's that we DO, and hate it all the more!

>>7730425
Forest makes sense, but dome day, meteor will write a decent end.

Best thread on /jp/

>>7730445
U-uu mad?
I told you to shut up Maria!

>>7730455
The ending of Forest was pretty awesome.

>>7730465

Japanese sure knows how to ruin cosplay, at least Americans do it properly.

>>7730455
>Forest makes sense
Huh? At least not much on the first playthrough.

>>7730471
sure Americans know what they're doing!

I enjoyed Umineko and admit that the ending had an astounding number of flaws that detracted from it, but I still found it to be enjoyable overall. Where does that leave me?

>>7730352
what about rewrite? isn't that all the rage

>>7733931
He was responsible for one route.

>>7733891
Nice to see one constructive statement here

>>7734049

Thanks. Thing is, if Higurashi is anything to go by, it's that the guy cannot end stuff he starts. Higurashi's ending was way too happy puppies for anyone's taste, and the idea of the entire thing being caused by rabid delusions makes it worse, although SOMEWHAT believable.

Second, his best friend died in the middle of production, and I don't really think he was ever given enough time to grieve over the loss, which led to a quality drop in the writing, to an extent.

Third, the fault of the ending (pretty much encompassed in the final two episodes) has to do with the series overstaying its welcome. Ep.6 would have been a perfect ending to the series, but people inevitably would have bitched that nothing was solved and there were too many dangling threads that needed to be tied up. Those people can go fuck off since they're responsible for the "shitty ending."

Like I said, the ending, and ONLY the ending, was terrible in that it wrapped everything up in a very sloppy manner. Thing is, if you look at Ep.6 as the ending and disregard the other two, it's fine and the series ends up being very well done. People also seem to forget that before Ep. 7 and 8, the fights and stuff was entertaining, and then have complete focus on the negative aspects of it with hindsight and looking at everything ONLY in relation to the ending. Thing is, it's not about the destination, it's about the journey. And Umineko as a whole was one hell of a journey, even if the destination didn't live up to the unrealistic expectations of the general reader.

This game is going to sell like shit because the Japanese, at least, absolutely fucking hate Ryukishi.

He's never going to be able to sell a game ever again after what he did by not making Higurashi again and being incapable of keeping his fat mouth shut in interviews.

>>7734049
>No trigger discipline.

Fuck! Hold it properly, bitch.

Fuck the haters. Umineko will always be great.

Don't be surprised when everybody jumps on your hate bandwagon.

Fuck the haters. Umineko will always be great.

Don't be surprised when not everybody jumps on your hate bandwagon.

>>7734314
You tell them. Umineko is a masterpiece.

And so is Higurashi.

Still waiting on Witch Hunt.
Honestly, I don't see how all the fun I've had reading it with my imouto can be spoiled by the ending, no matter how shitty.

Klash about translation:
>We were actually thinking about that, depending how things are going for us after Umineko is done (as a matter of fact, I and Chrono had some interest in Rewrite).
>As a matter of opinion, I'm really not thrilled by Higanbana, due to its presentation and exposure being focused on the disturbing/gloomy mood (not exactly chilling) with little to no interesting character, except the entitled character, to some degree.
>Of course, this is only based on what the manga has unfolded so far and I may be proved wrong by its release this week. That said, it is too early to tell if we are going to make another project, let alone naming the next VN.

>>7734337
>Rewrite

Sure, Klash, if chrono gets a competent editor.

>>7734337
I wouldn't count on Witch Hunt anymore for translating.

It's been 8 months and EP8 is only 60% done.

This is what happens when translators try to be normalfags and let their time be taken from them.

>>7734352
I suggest you to look up how many years translations of other VNs could take.

>>7734361

This. Their speed is incredible; I've been reading Little Busters for three fucking years now.

>>7734361
Sorry, I have standards for speed.

If you can't finish a 10 hour vn within 6 months then you're too slow.

>>7734372
You don't know nothing about slow, man.

So, back on the Higanbana topic.

Only 50% actually.

Even VNs like FS/N, Cross Channel should be translated/revised completely in 3-4 months at most. If it takes any longer, it's fault of translators being lazy

>>7734413
>translators being lazy
Or having a life.
They're not paid for this after all.

>>7734419

Yes, they're not. But they should know how many people are looking up to particular title and hurry up for sake of pleasing them.

>>7734372
They do it for free, you can't blame them for being "slow".

>>7734413
>>7734433

Look at this entitled little faggot. Let's all look at him and laugh.

>>7734337
I don't konw if I'm impatient or what but the beginning of rewrite is so damn boring, by the time anything interesting happen I found out I skipped way too many and have no idea what's going on

>>7734413
>3-4 months
I don't think even Flyable Heart reached that speed.

>>7734413
>Only 50% actually.
nope, they are far further, witch hunt just didn't update % because it's hard to calcule how much they translated and how much work is done.
so they said ;_;

>>7734433
They aren't translating to serve you. Get off your high horse.

>>7734433
So, how about learning japanese yourself and doing it in order to "please people"?

>>7734489

Why should i bother? It's much better if there are people doing things for you for free.

>>7734510
