They finally adapted Umineko into a board game.

To the fag who asked why Sayo had to use stakes in the holes while at other times their faces were blown off: she used different shells in the gun.

It was really cool

It loses lots but not all not essential narrative storytelling, but it works really fine as a 3 hours long action packed stage play adaptation.

Apparently this one is the least faithful of the three thus far, and if that's the worst they can do as a theatrical interpretation, it really doesn't surprises me just how well Season 2 and 3 were received in Japan.

So a couple weeks I was talking about fun times with a friend of mine playing Umineko blind with him for the first time. We got part way through EP2 and I found out today he looked up characters who haven't appeared yet and EP8 endings, so now the playthrough is done. Anyone else know people who have done this as well?

I don't know, he hasn't exactly explained what his plan was. I think that he thought his weird theories were right about EP1 stuff even though I kept telling him to think about it, so I guess he just decided to look stuff up since he thought he was right and I was leading him astray.

You mean like, confusing Purgatorio Battler and piece Battler? That's not my problem, my problem is why Purgatorio Battler denies magic.
Does it just not matter? Is all of Purgatorio kind of metaphorical and a tool of the narrative to explain the mystery, so there doesn't need to be an explanation of this?

>> No.19914199

>>19914155
It's an interesting concept to explore. Perhaps there is some sort of afterlife for the human consciousness where concepts such as 'magic' actually exists. All sorts of wild things are possible, just like what is shown in Purgatorio. But just because such a thing is possible in that world, doesn't mean it has any sort of effect on the corporeal world.

Usually a rook's usefulness depends on the placement of your other pieces. Rooks would be at a disadvantage I think because it would be harder, or at the least more time consuming, to have other pieces in place to defend them. Without that, the rooks will probably have only one quick good move before being sacrificed.

Anonymous, it's okay to be lazy. If you were, at any given time, allowed to choose how you want to be, you would choose to be lazy. There's nothing wrong with that. But the important thing is knowing when you shouldn't be lazy; when you form a promise with someone, don't do it lightly. Consider what they're asking; consider how you personally feel. And most importantly, consider the impact if you break it, for that person, and yourself.

Yes it would. Attempted murder, illegal possession of firearm, illegal possession of explosive ordinance, and conspiracy to commit slaughter.

>> No.19922594

She never attempted murder and I doubt she'd get any charges for the guns seeing as how she just inherited them and never used them. As far as explosives go, she only inherited the island that they happened to be stashed in. Same situation with the gold, at best you have a situation where she owned it for two years but she was underage and could easily claim she thought the taxes were already paid on it. I'll give you conspiracy to commit murder though.

And gun law in Japan is insane. A guy in 1978 had a pistol found in one of the cars in his convoy, and got seven years for that alone.

You CAN own a (one) hunting rifle - if you renew the license every year, prove you can shoot it, and prove you’re mentally sound(kek).

Assuming Yasu did that - and let’s be real she totally didn’t - there’s still seven of them that she would have no legal recourse to own

And since the Winchesters are sawed off - they’re NOT hunting rifles anyways, they’re illegally modified, so Yasu would get jail time for the one Winchester she would have otherwise been allowed to own assuming she submitted to the yearly check and psychiatric evaluation(again, kek)

So in total, for owning the sawed off guns alone we’re looking at like 56 years of jail time, to say nothing of the bomb or gold, or conspiracy to commit murder

Infodump anon here.

I've uploaded on YT the complete first Rose Guns Days Stage Play (which of course, covers Season 1). It was available to be watched for a limited time during an event on NicoNico, so this quality is as great as we will get unless there's a BD or DVD release one day (hopefully, as they did a really nice job here).

I don't have time to sub, and thus I've opened public contributions for the video, regardless of that, enjoy:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qhIZcUs3aiw

As for other updates:
Some months ago, my old HD got screwed and I've lost the almost finished translation for the first volume of Umineko Purple Forgery mango and my Haworthia booklet halfway through done translation (meaning I didn't touch the audio content for it until then).

Therefore, as much as it frustrates me to the point of me wanting to drop my already slowed down fan translation for them, if anyone still has both RAWs and cleaned pages for the Purple Logic manga, as I lurked and read about some weeks ago, I would very much appreciate a link for them, if possible.

Haworthia is very easy to find on Nyaa still, so don't worry about that one, it's easily accessible still.

That's pretty much it for now, have a nice day, anon goat companions.

Kyrie did everything wrong! Her man cheats on her even in non-canon extra tips. Her whole family might still be alive if she hadn't swooped in and tried to pick up the pieces of Rudolf after his wife died. She thinks it wouldn't have been discovered that she'd killed Asumu had it come to it? What a moroooon. The police are amazing, after all. Rudolf definitely wouldn't have stuck with her after that. Then she made the man she loved assist her in killing his whole family for money with the intention of finishing her actual birth son if it came to it. And on that front, she couldn't even kill people right! Maybe she should have used her crybaby NTR victim math to not fucking miss from a couple feet away. What a loser and a failure. Spin the chessboard around? Maybe she should spin that gun around and blow her own brains out. Oh wait, she'd probably miss that shot, too. Deceptive, evil, manipulative, yet still INCOMPETENT.

Ah there’s the rub. The person telling you this is a mysterious asshole who says vague things and is generally speaking an embodiment of Shroedingers box in that you are completely uncertain if they’re worth trusting

But what they say resonates with you. It’s just that - like - even if Lambda or Bern took an interest in you and your situation, the fact of the matter is that you’re just an an ant and they’re fucking higher dimensional beings. All that’s guaranteed is that they’re smarter than you. Them having your best interests in mind, however...

How can you deny magic when it would deny Bern and Lambda entirely and turn the entire story into Ange's imagination right before she decides to not jump off a building, resulting in absolutely no truth being discovered and absolutely no part of anything happening or mattering at all? It's the most loveless conclusion possible. "Magic does not exist" is for people that didn't like Umineko and want those 100+ hours flushed down the toilet.

I'm pretty sure you would want to advance toward the middle with all of your pieces (I'd wager offensive early game play with queen and rooks would be pretty viable here cause you should realistically never be caught with that much open space to work with, and it ought to allow you to delay your opponents advance substantially), because anything else would be stretching yourself out too thin, allowing your opponent to isolate individual pieces.
With black and white meeting in the center of the board, you'd be left with a ton of room to maneuver your major pieces in the back to try and crack open your opponents position tactically, as they try to do the same to you. In that situation rooks would be stronger for sure, mainly you'd have to be especially careful not to let them get through to your own back row, but it shouldn't be game-breaking.

If it's an illusion how much of it is real?

Does my 'true' biology correspond to the one I'm dreaming I have and are our medical practices actually functional in the real world?
Before I'd be willing to step into a reality that could literally be anything I'd want to gather at least some intel on how to do basic survival shit and construction, and maybe learn about mechanics and basic physics.

Other than that, if the people you care about are philosophical zombies, and you know that to be the case, then any attachment you have to them is just a bug caused by your biological programming.

read what MG's retranslated so far, then read the old translation of the last 2 chapters. or wait until later this year when they're gonna finish the retranslation, apparently.
but i think that since the steam sales on the series has dropped off of a cliff, MG is done with putting in effort into actually retranslating the rest of the series, they'll probably just do a quick edit job of the remaining chapters and release that instead. you're probably safe just reading the old versions of those because i'd bet there's not gonna be much of an improvement other than typo fixes.

Bern is Yasu's inner desire for a miracle where everything gets fixed, Battler remembers the pony and all the shit - she's also Ange's desire for a miracle where the entire thing was just a bad dream and never happened; ultimately for both, she's also a reminder that a miracle never happen

Likewise Lambda is the personification of Yasu's 'certain' fate of Rokkenjima '86, and thus - Beatrice's 'patron witch'; likewise, she takes up that role when Tohya figures out the truth, but keeps denying it by separating himself from Battler - Battler is 'certainly' responsible for Yasu's loss of hope and the events this caused

One thing he missed imo is that Higurashi already has a translation and a publisher in the West, and therefore would not cost as much in that area (though it would still leave 11-13 arcs of varying length to be translated - I don't know how to count two Miotsukushis and Kotohogushi, since they overlap); the biggest financial hurdle would be the voice acting I think, those contracts are fucked, with marketing in second and then the translation

also this isn't denying magic at all - hell, the opposite, as pretty much all magical characters come from Sayo or Tohya requiring them to be stand-ins for something

but that's what I mean, they both won't just give up their assets (even though they are not competitors, their markets are different as you noticed in your post), but at the same time, are stuck in a very awkward situation of selling two similar but different products under the same name - and neither can do much about it
maybe I'm just idealistic to think the best course of action would be to cooperate on that single project and split earnings - MG would be able to safely enter and assess the Switch (and if the rumors are true, PS4) market, and Entergram would get royalties from the Steam releases and the English-speaking market - and Higurashi is a very big title when it comes to VNs

I wanna start reading Umineko 2, but my horrendous experience with the first VN has put me off reading it, it's already been more than a half year since I finished it but I'm still suffering from the soul draining experience, literally traumatized for life.

Like I said, it was a horrendous experience. Sure, the dramatic part of the VN was the best element and was the sole thing that helped me "somehow" go through the whole VN and finally completing it, however that magic vs logic bullshit which was like 90% or more of the whole VN made me loath my entire existence. I've never had headache from reading, not even while studying some of my hateful subjects in school and college, but this fucking shit man, this fucking Beatric vs Battler back and forth, god fucking dammit, just recalling back their debates is giving me motion sickness.

Don't worry, there's a theme shift in Chiru, less word traps and weaseling around red truths. Though if you're expecting a thorough explanation of how 1-4 murders were commited, don't.

At this point dont even bother.
Not because I dont think you'll not like the secomd half, but because psychologically once you have it set in your mind that you don't like something, your mind will start focussing on small things, picking each and every thing out, and finding ways to hate it. It's not something you can just push aside either and ignore, so the best thing to do is not waste your time on it.

I've currently been getting a friend of mine into Umineko. I kind of broke her trust several years ago and I thought our friendship was totally fucked. Umineko's kind of been getting us closer again.I'm tempted to read the VN again. I remember loving it on my first read years ago, and it repairing this friendship feels nice.

I don't understand the irrationality when it comes to Frederica Bernkastel. Why would Bernkastel in Umineko be a different Bernkastel from Higurashi? They're both games in the 'When They Cry' series, it makes no sense to not have them be the same person.

okay, I concede for now, seems like I need to reread Saikoroshi carefully - I'm not a fan of the 'death of the author' concept, so I'll respect what he says

>>19967352
it's because Rika is a... maybe not pure cinnamon roll, but definitely a much better person than Umineko's Bern - and while Frederika isn't Rika (which passes over people's heads a lot, same with pieces and meta-characters in Umineko, hence why your usual goat makes that mistake), she also is not the same kind of a cunt as the Bern from Chiru - but see the posts I replied to above for the rebuttal to that
In my case, it's also a bit of a denial of Higu and Umi having a shared universe despite Ep4 basically tossing that idea out the window

IIRC, Bernkanstel is the direct result of Rika's purging of past memory(?)/previous fragment experiences. Bernkastel is made of all the Rikas that were denied a happy ending, the ones that were sacrificed. Thus she's bitter as all fuck and wants to hurt other people to push that pain away. Featherine was the GM of Higurashi iirc, who caused the 'looping story'/snake eating its own tail error and abandoned the game and thus Rika to her fate in creating Bern as she is now, hence the "you taught me how to eat meat" comment in ep7(?)
