in Tatagoroshi, I get that the gang is making up stories to give K1 an alibi for when he was murdering that dude, but why does Satoko say this; (image) when proded about her uncle's whereabouts?

Did she hallucinate her uncle waking her up in the morning?
Did K1 accidentally kill the wrong person?

I know that the body disappears later cause the Sonozakis moved him to their dungeon pit, but would they do that if they saw that K1 had just killed some rando?

Umineko is:

-Murder mystery
-Modern Fantasy
-Commentary on the detective genre
-And does a lot of other stuff romance, philosophy, breaking the 4th wall etc.

Furthermore, it claims to be a kinetic novel (aka no choices) and technically has only 1 relevant choice for the ending, but manages to crush even that, by making player do not a physical, but a mental choice how to treat this story. At the same time it can be both: pure murder mystery without fantasy elements and a pure fantasy story.

>He often went online a lot to see what people were thinking about the game. After EP2, a lot of players were giving up on the mystery and declaring it a fantasy. That led him to change EP3 from its original much harder version. He added Virgilia to help the reader. Originally, that character was going to be Virgilius, an evil and very intelligent male character, that later became Erika Furudo.
The name ended up going to Virgilia, and the personality went to Erika. EP3 was suppose to be Land of the Golden Witch, and it was even mentioned in-universe.

Do you think this puts to rest any significance to the teaser's negative filter? While the new WTC5 image continues presenting white feathers, an inversed teaser image normalizes the atmosphere and blackens the feathers. That truly black feathers would be shown as white is intriguing (hopefully not merely pareidolia). Assuming the negative filter has any significance, innumerable black and/or white global birds exist: doves, seagulls, crows, ravens, herons, cranes, pelicans, etc. I know the significance of some of these in Buddhism and Hinduism, including the significance of the legendary garuda, who has significance particularly in samsara. Consider one of the Haworthia tracks translating to "sky of sunyata," which is apt for a white and/or black bird with spiritual significance (and that the sky of emptiness is above the fog and buildings in the teaser). This befits those mystical birds particularly. Or perhaps we're looking at some duality? Who knows?

But I never predicated my understanding of Umineko on the Buddhist or Hinduist significance of the seagull, which is why I'm not too invested in this aporetic strategy. The title creature was always an engine for the narrative—as mimesis—and not for the true magic/profundity.

Goats are quick to take only one argument among a dozen to laugh at it. It is intellectually disingenuous, and only prove that they are goats, unable to think for themselves. It is sad, really. Truly sad. Being blind to a truth because of a deep incomprehension of the core thematic of Umineko.

Ultimately, all the arguments against Ikuko = Yasu boils down to:
>It was all a coincidence!
>Ikuko used magic!
>Yasu wouldn't create alternate personalities to deal with stressful situations!

Which is absurdly laughable. The worst is that anons give those goat-like answers seriously. For them, it was all really a coincidence, all discrepancies are explained by magic, and they can't imagine Yasu doing what she has always done since the beginning. They don't seem to grasp how stupid their answers are.

I personally think it is an affair of pride. They didn't think about that theory, so their pride is in the line. Admitting it is true would be admitting other people were cleverer than them, and that is hard for them. A lack of basic humility.

Only because some of the music may be shared, and because R07 came up with Haworthia during the process of coming up WTC5. The idea that it's connected to WTC5 in any meaningful way is a false rumor.

And the reason it wasn't translated is that naturally, nobody competent is going to pick it up when a translation project was already announced with big fanfare immediately after it was released last year.

Yeah, the feathers could also be a red herring and have nothing to do with the animal the story will be named after. It could very well only have disjointed thematic relevance (like how seagulls are only thematic insofar as their Japanese name shares a word with "catbox," regarding Umineko's epistemological themes). I wouldn't be surprised if it was something only distantly related to the heavenly Empyrean.

I mean something you'd only get after two or three entire linguistic/thematic connections, like seagull>neko>catbox>Schrodinger's experiment>the commentary on an object's state before perception pierces it. What could we possibly surmise from white feathers? We could be starting from the seagull or the commentary. It could be that the white feather is of an animal per se or of some idea of the holy/virtuous/foregone and forlorn. Whichever we're starting from, it could very well only be related to an afterimage two nodes away from the actual animal/theme (let's say the animal-theme connection is a tree diagram).

>>19428029
Of course Haworthia could be crucial. In literature, from microcosm to macrocosm (word to book), all is deliberate. The diction, prosody, description, setting, metaphors, etc, are never happenstance. That's how you fall into the death of the author meme which is grossly misattributed by a mass who never even read Barthes (of course) when all it means to do is recognize that we should not be beholden to authorial intent as the sole descriptor of meaning. It's just to avoid authorial tyranny, especially since some shared understanding of a work is required for any charitable and productive discussion to be had. Should Haworthia share tracks with WTC5, plus the magical themes in Umineko, it must have some meaningful connection to the author's intentions. Of course this reverberates for song and not pure melody, where lyrics are basically meaning bruteforced. It depends on which of those tracks are shared.

I acknowledge that Haworthia's significance is enervated if it was only synchronously written with WTC5 and not as a piece of some WTC5 rough draft.

>> No.19428320

I think that since he's releasing both Umineko EP9 + "Alpha" (Maybe something similiar to ???? chapter for the "new scenario?), and WTC5, and that we know Umineko's new content will have a new protagonist, I think that EP9's protagonist and WTC5 protagonist are going to be the same character.

Which, is kind of genius. Ryukishi knows we're attached to Umineko, so he'll trick us to feel new character is Umineko related and then take us to a completely different place.

In general, I think the new Umineko content is for connecting WTC5 and Umineko together

>Barthes
>His first book, Writing Degree Zero, was a study of how even an apparently neutral style of writing carries political implications that the writer may not even be aware of.

Interesting, though I dare say him suggesting that the political implications are the writer not being aware is a very charitable allowance on his part. In addition to his tvtropes page, I read his Death of the Author essay - this bit stuck out to me

>Is it the author Balzac, professing certain “literary” ideas of femininity? Is it universal wisdom? or romantic psychology? It will always be impossible to know, for the good reason that all writing is itself this special voice, consisting of several indiscernible voices, and that literature is precisely the invention of this voice

Yes, deliberate ambiguity is part of the beauty of writing, although ambiguity can also, in a work full of structure, be a cheap cope out. In any event Death of the Author doesn't mean "The truth is what you make of it."

Or in other words, Death of the Author, or at least how I view it, means that when faced with this deliberate ambiguity, we can come up with several interpretations with a good deal of validity, but we can't come up with infinite interpretations as valid as the other.

Precisely. Language has necessary interstices which is a bit part of Wittgenstein's Philosophical Investigations. His beetle in a box private language particularly addresses that language isn't wholly creative and unique, but there exists still some irresistible interstice because of language's nature (which is why he concludes we should just use language to the best of our ability). As for what that has to do with Barthes and writing, it means that, while a phrase presents innumerable interpretative possibilities, only a particular set are charitable to discussion. This goes for language and it goes for writing, which is a product of language, and so it must be recognized and appreciated by those who discuss that very writing that we shouldn't be intentionally duplicitous or uncooperative in our interpretations. Ex: someone arguing that the tree on page 56 is the actual protagonist of the story. Umineko, as metafiction, is conducive to these sorts of discussions, considering those people with absurd, heartless, unintelligent theories are otherwise known as, among us, goats. Metafiction is what we call writing on writing. Don't forget authorial intent.

I'm torn on the idea of stupid theories. The intent behind them matters a lot. I think we all have to start with stupid theories.

Furthermore, I think stupid theories can eventually evolve into good works of fiction on their own merit. It's hard to quantify "effort", but I think so long as legitimate thought or a spark of creativity has gone into a theory - even if the theory is TOTALLY off the mark, it's ok in my book.

Yeah, that's why I have to make sure I'm not fooling myself with the pareidolia meme, which is very typical of people new to reading. Diminishing returns on info is natural. Until a new sound interpretation is found, the predecessors will be furiously developed until we're left nitpicking. New sound interpretations of course refer to profound ideas previous readers didn't find or syntheses lost on them. Reading is as creative and difficult a task as writing, after all. There are good readers and bad readers. Borges was a proponent of this idea, actually.


>>19428653
Regardless of the theory or its effort, we're avoiding uncharitable discussion. Those theories that are superfluous, and grasp at distant afterimages until their nails break, in the hollow hope of originality are what death of the author could be corrupted into supporting. As for a stupid theory developing into a good work, know that all great writers were also great readers, and so a writer who has read stupidly (and constructs his fiction on that phantasm) is likely to construct further stupidity. Before interpreting a musical piece, learn to master it technically, and in the same vein, before injecting creativity, be concerned with writing well. Writing creatively while abdicating skill its throne is basically learning how to draw anime without an understanding of realism (a lot of people are guilty of this). But it could happen, of course, if the interpretation was misled but truly excellent. That can happen. There are indeed valiant and intelligent but wrong ideas.

Natsuhi hated Kanon and didn't like to associate with him because she thought he was a spy, Kanon was also silent with her to keep his male persona and
specially so becausee they hated her.

It's implied Krauss didn't know shit about the servants as Natsuhi was the only one who took control of the house.

Them not noticing Shkanon is still bullshit but you can make excuses with them. Jessica straight up interacted with both Kanon and Shannon multiple times in their weakest moments, not noticing they were the same person is the biggest bullshit in Umineko, that's why theories of Jessica and her family knowing about it have been mentioned online before, even if I don't recall NOTHING backing them up.

Several servants, including "Shannon" and "Kanon" rotate in and out of Rokkenjima.

Jessica on the other hand, is literally both very good friends with Shannon, and has a crush on Kanon. For her to not realize that they are one in the same after having spent so much time with them is insanity, even with the possibility of makeup and a voice change.

Excuse me what?
Jessica barely even get close to Kanon at all. There were very few times she actually got to talk with him properly and only once she called him to go to her school festival. She told that herself to Shannon even.

She mostly admired him from far away, and the scenes she was with him that weren't flashbacks were all magic sequences in which there was no Battler observing as the detective authority.

Youre acting like Jessica hung out with them all the time and had sleepovers. They rarely talked. Sure she had a crush on Kanon, but it was from afar. Anytime they talked it would be in passing or related to servant duties.

It was stated that the servants on the island change all the time and the family conference is when the most were there. Different servants being on the island at different times means sayo could space out the use of Kanon and Shannon. I bet she rarely used both personas at the same time, meaning youd probably only see Shannon for a week and then Kanon next week or something similar.

I thought it was that she went back around 2000 times, meaning she had lived the same 2 months for around 166 years.

I'm not a math guy, how many times did she repeat the 2 months for it to be 2000 years?

>> No.19430317

>>19430287

Could be interpreted that way, but remember that Rika's loop used to start years before 1983, enough far back that her parents were still alive and enough before they died for her mom to become concerned about her disinterest in life.

The scene in question has lamba saying that she didn't bother counting the years she spent in the logic error unlike Bernkastel, which depicts Rika with kakeras numbering up to 2 thousand.

While I'm excited about the recent news about WTC 5 & Umineko 9; we all shouldn't be getting our hopes up about a team of translators deciding to translate them anytime time soon after their release. If we're lucky, perhaps two months afterwards. Then again, that's hard to imagine since no one even bothered to tackle TRianThology.

This is all we have, unfortunately.

>>19430857
Get me a hacker to set up the game for people to translate, and maybe I can see things through with some friends. TRT is slightly shorter than Umineko's first EP iirc. Shouldn't be too time consuming to get through, except for maybe Vespio and all the cool sci-fi babble in it.

Ren'ai will be one unfunny drag to go through however...

Has it ever been revealed what happened after K1 falls off the bridge in Tatagorochi and the Disaster that night?

Rena and Mion try to get K1 to go with them to the junkyard presumably to explain to him that Mion's family moved the body, but his paranoia made him not trust them. I want to know what happened to them afterwards, and also to Satoko since shes classified as missing, not dead in the In Memoriam epilogue.

From the convention in Finland. Protagonist might be the wrong word, but a new character is still confirmed.

We also finally got confirmation on the new character shown in the latest announcement is for the next WTC.

MG picking up 07th works really fucked this up especially with how fucking long it takes them to do anything, but I'm sure someone will do a fan translation for the next WTC and EP9, the audience is still there after all these years while Tri kind of had nothing and was not even terribly well recieved iirc because of the average - low quality of the parts that weren't written by Ryukishi
