Well if its some fantasy bs or space-oriented martian moonlanders with hanyuus, then that would both beat the point as well as destroy the limits of an open word concept in its very core. I honestly liked rgg despite its experimental nature, as it was delivered well, and the interaction during fight scenes in order to involve some of the readers in order to gain perfect score added to the tension during crucial points. In this regard I would rather have the new wtc contained within such an environment. That is to say within a section of a city or a smaller country, no larger than that.

Not necessarily. Recording voice acting for a long VN is much more expensive than recording voice acting for a drama CD. I'm not sure if 07th Expansion can afford the former if it's the same length as Higurashi or Umineko

What's all this about WTC5 not being set in an isolated location? I must've missed that.
Really hope that won't turn out to be true, the best thing about WTC is the isolated, 80's pre-smartphone setting that allows for a thrilling story with no real help from outside elements.

WTC5 being set in modern day Tokyo or something would be so completely different. It's hard to keep the tension of a closed-off creepy small village or an island in the middle of a huge storm when the story is set somewhere with millions of people around.

Oh, come now no need take on the role of Bernkastel and try to trample on his truth. Yes, it is a fact that Yasu was born biologically a boy, and was raised as a girl. However, how they identify is still up to the reader to understand. Granted, the way you went about stating this, was a bit blunt or what you might perceived as being: brutally honest. Be that as it may, I still find it laughable that you’re pushing your personal issues onto him by deliberately starting an argument just so that you can get a cheap thrill. Of course, by that, I’m referring to your personal attacks on his intelligence and sexuality. Nevertheless, I expect such childish behavior on 4chan. However, when it comes to the Umineko fandom, you’re type is quite distasteful.

The songs might throw some subtle hints of what's the story is going to be about, maybe in the form of an obscure poem, though I do agree with you about the characters (it seems strange to me that there hasn't been any confirmation about them). They'll probably have some important role in the story, but I don't think they are related to the main characters, at least that's my opinion.

The voice cast makes me think that either these characters aren't going to be in WTC5 or they aren't going to be the main characters. Both Higurashi and Umineko had a great voice cast, but these guys have little to no VA experience at all.
Though, it could just be ryukishi cheaping out on voice acting since he usually doesn't even include voices at all.

A post-post-modern murder mystery in space.

You'd think there will be a twist all along, but the twist is that there is no twist. In fact, there isn't even any murder at all. It's just SoL in space, making you think it won't be a SoL, but then it is.

Pure genius.

And then in the last episode the post-post-post-modernism kick in as it is in fact revealed that there were murders, but they were so well hidden you thought he wanted you to think erroneously it wasn't a SoL in space, when in fact, it was.

Next-level genius.

Rosatrice is a super convoluted theory that makes zero sense when you consider the entirety and heart of Umineko. Rosa stops being relevant after episode 4 and episode 6 makes Shkanontrice all the more obvious.

Yes. Kanon started to exist shortly after Sayo's love for Battler was transferred to Beatrice.

And after that, Kinzo set up the epitaph. Sayo solved the epitaph and after that Genji led her to Kinzo. After she met Kinzo and called him 'father', Kinzo died.

-Track 7 has gunfire/explosions, the gunfire sounding exactly like gunfire from WWII (presumably).
-I'm suddenly remembering that Ryukishi loves WWII and if her title indeed refers to this, then this+nature/nature being violated thememakes me think this could actually be criticism of Japanese imperialism.
-It would make sense for cranes too.
-Then we can return to the buildings earlier, considering their representing big business.
-And note the significance of the stars on the Chinese flag regarding that there are several and they represent communism and the four groups of socioeconomic classes people fall into.
-I'm laughing my ass off at myself for somehow coming to the point where I thought the characters were fighting the Japanese military to revive the stars of Chinese communism.
-Umineko had Taiwan because of Kinzo which is pretty controversial with China so if he did another thing here regarding that and WWII it would actually be consistent but I don't want to get too into it right now because I know absolutely nothing about the history there.

As >>17818779 said then proven in location by >>17818796, the teaser art depicts Dubai. Unfortunately for Dubai, if Ryukishi was sincere in wanting to shroud the story enough to withhold the next title, the teaser art would either be esoteric or irrelevant. I've just been craneposting since I saw it, but my theory hinges more on ryukishi looking to Goethe rather than Dante this time.

Actually it's very easy to find what I wrote so that's where you'll find my personal input. As for the space theme, the first of the sixteen tracks (appropriately named "Organics Automata") mentions restoring the planet's beauty. Alongside Punica/Haworthia's titles and names, Automata preserving nature in the present and the revival of stars, abandoning the planet for interplanetary warfare would be totally nonsensical. That's why I posit WTC5 is a call for a return to form.

Furthermore, Ryukishi just wrote Vespio 2438 in Trianthology, which is exactly what you're fearing WTC5 would be. If he was sincerely adamant about his story not being conspicuous/obvious he wouldn't repeat his last VN work.

That's more the result of the culture that has emerged around Umineko than anything else. The people who stick around for years, keep discussing it, watch new lps when they come out and continue to promote Ryukishis work are generally 'the sea is blue cause my feelings say so'-tier anti-truth fags who subscribe to subjectivism that is essentially just a lazy misreading of the concept of truth Ryukishi tried to portray in Umi, but at the same time they are hardcore invested in the 'correct solution' as they see it.
This creates an environment in which you really can't discuss alternative theories and expect to challenge anyone's views. The type of reply you get at first is polite and friendly-seeming, if a little worried, but ultimately filled with leading questions and hints that are intended to point you in the correct direction. If you continue being 'stubborn' for long enough, people start getting upset, and if you have any kind of social awareness you realize that what you are doing isn't wanted. At best it's just a nuisance, at worst it's something that might disturb the unity, break the consensus that this community has arrived at.

What happened with these two ? Why did'nt they kept going after episode 5 ? I happened to discover this blog while searching why people were so inclined to believe in the Shkannon explanation. I ended up reading everything they wrote and I have to admit that I'm pretty baffled by how much details I missed just because I wanted to find a solution to the murders and the overall mystery, not trying to understand the "why" despite Ryukishi blatantly telling us to adopt this way of thinking throughout the story.

It's a little farfetched but it actually makes sense.

>> No.17828991

I like the logic supporting this theory. It makes me wonder whether it is possible to make this theory from the original text before its translation.

Can any anons fluent in /jp/ give insight into this? Connotations of Kanji used in the original text compared to the translated words' connotations could be interesting.

I'd do it myself but I don't think my Japanese interpretation ability is refined enough to do so.

If you are honestly lost it may be better to just buy the first half of Umineko on Steam, you can't go wrong that way. Although it isn't there yet, Chiru (the second half) is coming to Steam in the near future. Nyaa as a single website disappeared a while ago. There are sites running with haphazardly shoved together backups of multiple parts of the original nyaa.se database which should have Umineko in multiple flavors. The two nyaa sites that most people use (this includes Japanese pirates, they somehow exist despite the draconian copyright laws in Japan) are nyaa.pantsu.cat and nyaa.si. The first site is run by some anons from /g/ while the other seems to be run by remnants of the original nyaa sites' admins, made up of fansub/ripping groups such as HorribleSubs and Commie.

Pic slightly related as it depicts some of the madness that ensues when political warfare starts between piracy sites.

>> No.17829960

>>17829947
I was trying to educate myself on Umineko to figure out what I needed to download and terms like parts 5-8 meant, so I guess that's the Chiru half? Does the story not come to a conclusion in the steam release?

Right, I remember that nyaa went down but just wrote nyaa as shorthand for checking both versions of the site. I really wish there was only one of them that functioned as flawlessly as the original nyaa.

By running the executable from the outermost folder you are likely running the unpatched original game in Japanese which requires Windows' locale to be set to Japanese to even have the game appear. For flavors of Umineko released before 2016ish, there are nested folders (folders inside the original folder) with patches inside them. A screenshot of the folder that you are running the game from may help us diagnose your problem. Specification as to what Operating System you are running may help too.

The original PS3 patch was created by Umitweak, and the original English patch was created by Witch Hunt (WH). Running the executables within these folders is what you probably need to do. These executables are actually a reimplementation of the original game's engine, named ONscripter. (The name presumably refers to the Open Source nature of this reimplementation of Nscripter, the original game's proprietary engine.) This allows for the running of the game without changes to locale as well as opens up the game to translation.

Sorry if I am overcomplicating things, I may well be an honorary Canadian.

I have not used the Steam release but I do know that it runs on PONscripter (unlike Higurashi which runs in Unity -.-). In this thread most of us have already read through Umineko with older versions and we probably only know how to explain the ins and outs of the older patches and releases.

This is a stab in the dark. However I'll suggest it anyway. As Umineko runs on PONscripter, you may be able to use UncleMions precompiled exe to run the game just the same. Just place it in the game folder and run I guess?

My impression is that we don't know anything significant about the plot yet besides speculation based on the Haworthia sound drama, but has Ryuukishi even confirmed that WTC5 will be a When The Cry game in the sense of how it's experienced?

# 07thLive I plan to put out a disk that corresponds to Umineko's Higurashi Shu. Estimated next summer. Umineko, plan to put out a new episode on Umineko scatter. It seemed that I thought that it might be serious because I did it like a gag in the brochure. The title is in doubt. What would you like to eat Umineko?

Pathetic. Even if you didn't like the story, wishing for an author who did nothing wrong to you to completely fail makes you such a shitty person and I honestly hope you rot in hell.

Assuming this information is accurate and that there will indeed be a new Episode, what would you like to see?

>> No.17849712

It could be Land of the Golden Witch but told from the perspective of the one writing it, incorporating elements of Our Confession and Confession of the Golden Witch. Not that I think that's what it will be, but just an idea for something that could fit in well with the other episodes without being totally redundant or trashy fanservice.

After the manga, why would Ryukish want to expand the story even more? Doesn't make sense if it's not completely unrelated to the story. Its just going to be dumb fanservice, I know. Some stupid dumb excuse of a meta-world when everyone gets naked or something, bah. Boring.

I kind of want them to read Umineko first, but since I read Higurashi first it's kinda difficult for me to tell if reading Umineko first would be sort of spoilery for Higurashi. You know, because of the metaphysics and stuff.

The reason I want them to read Umineko first is because I read Umineko in a lazy manner, since I expected the truth to just be told straight like in Higurashi. I don't want them to read it like that, and this difference in the story telling would be sort of difficult to explain, don't you think?

If this person is a friend of yours, you have the opportunity to discuss it as they progress through Umineko. Make sure they don't just focus on the mystery element and the true culprit but to also consider the meta world and Ange. Umineko can get really confusing with all the layers it has, so be there to answer any questions that come up and discourage this person from reading a wikia because of the risk of spoilers.

An VN adaptation of the manga exclusive purple forgery would be nice. Having everything including all the side stories on a set of disc(s) is going to be quite convenient as well as yet another chance to throw money at R07.

Really? I thought that they overbudgeted Umineko and Higurashi for PS3 which led to their bankruptcy shortly after because sales were really low on those games as well some others like Gal Gun.

That's because it is Battler. The truth for episode 5, revealed by Erika in the manga adaptation of episode 8, is that Battler was a part of the scheme to corner Natsuhi. He was the one who actually made the phone call.
