It depends on your definition of "mystery", but neither are Higurashi or Umineko really.

>> No.21106096

I think he meant that it is still a mystery but the explanations will be clearly explained, in both higurashi and umineko most answers aren't clearly written in white on black, in fact all of the closed rooms are still left to be figured out, they just give you the tools to destroy them and the tricks that are used, in higurashi, a lot of mysteries also are inderectly referenced, like sakoto's uncle's body, you yourself has to make the connection when reading ep 6 when mion mentions that her family moved rena's stepmom body

in the case of ciconia, I think it stems from ryushiki realsing that most people that will read his work won't necessarly put in the full effort to break the mystery (think about land of the golden witch, wihich was cancelled for this reason)

I definitely didn't think that thinking would get you anywhere close to the "solution" in Higurashi that's for sure, but that's also kind of besides the point. Ryukishi really pushed this idea of "you need to think for yourself" hard in both Higurashi and Umineko and that's kind of the main conceit that puts them apart from other VNs. Ciconia not having that makes me wonder what about it makes it a "When They Cry". What defines a WTC if it's not the "mystery" aspect?

>>21106096
Eh, I don't think Higurashi is obscure about its mysteries at all. I really didn't try to figure out anything while reading Higurashi since I didn't feel there really was a point (and I feel justified about that in hindisght) and all the mysteries are more or less clearly explained to the reader.
Umineko does leave some things unexplained but again all the main things are said pretty much directly and not really obscured at all. The only thing that isn't really revealed as some of the closed room tricks but even then he does give you the tricks to all of them in other parts of the story, you just need to match the tricks to the riddles at the end and it's pretty easy.

I do agree that Ryukishi has probably just given up on trying to make the reader solve the riddles for themselves. I think that makes sense since the WTC audience just isn't golden age mystery novel fans, it's just a bunch of otaku. But I do wonder what's gonna replace that idea, I think it'd be kind of a shame if he just decides to write in a more straightforward style.

It's a big scale conspiracy type of mystery spanning 5 years. It works really well, but it's definitely not the type of mystery that sets especific rules, times of death, or limits the number of possible suspects. It's its own thing, so I'm OK with Ciconia doing something different again.

Higurashi asks you to think big and guess what the fuck is going on with all this crazy shit. It gets even crazier when Rika shows signs of knowing about other worlds, which forces to you to think about the mystery on a meta level and try to figure out what exactly is going on with the magic element of the story. Before that, you'd just assume that the existence of different episodes wouldn't be brought up in the story itself.

But it's not a classic mystery. It's a story about insane government conspiracies seen through the eyes of mentally ill protagonists. You are not supposed to consider the Knox rules or think about the typical mystery shit. You are supposed to put on a tin foil hat.and try to come up with some crazy explanation for all the shit that happens. There are almost no rules. And I love it.

So I don't get why people want the entire WTC series to be like Umineko. Each story did its own thing, it was never exlusively about classic golden era mysteries. So Ciconia could do its own thing and still be worthy of the title, as long as it makes you think and theorize.

>>21106294
The thing with Higurashi is that it gives you so few hints and constraints that there's no way you could ever arrive at the conclusion by yourself. The problem is so open that you could come up with endless "solutions" that don't contradict anything but aren't what Ryukishi had in mind. And the real solution still requires you to accept magic and mystery illnesses.
Also, Higurashi just doesn't get to the point very fast. The early episodes don't really show you much that's actually related to the real big mystery and instead focuses a lot more on the paranoia/unreliable narrator aspects.

I think Umineko is a lot better in this regard since you could actually figure out the main points of the solution by episode 2. And the red truth and Knox rules provide enough guidance so that you can actually make progress solving the riddle by restricting yourself to what's actually possible under the "rules".

>>21106323
I don't think everything should be like Umineko, I think Higurashi was fine. What I have a problem with is not that you can't really figure out what's going on from the hints you're given, but that Ryukishi keeps insisting you mull it over regardless. And also I don't think the big government conspiracy itself is particularly interesting or makes much sense either.
I love the question arcs of Higurashi because of that paranoid feeling where you feel like you can't trust anyone, not even yourself. But when the curtain is finally lifted I find the conclusion to be a bit lackluster.

I do hope that Ciconia makes you think and theorize but from Ryukishi's tweets to me it sounds like he's saying "there might be parts where you could think if you really wanted to but you don't need to". Maybe I'm just reading too much into it or maybe he's just trying to get people to relax their expectations, I don't know.

Imagine a Higurashi spin-off in which Rena or some other survivor becomes a detective as an adult and tries to figure out what happened in Hinamizawa and unravel the conspiracy.

Imagine an Umineko spin-off in which Yasu gets cold feet and we get to see the family leave the island peacefully to live the rest of their lives.

And then Matsuribayashi-hen happened (and to a lesser extent Minagoroshi-hen).

One of the things that made the earlier arcs seem much more down-to-earth was that the cast felt far more fragile and vulnerable.

Keiichi wasn't some Shonen hero who could knock out fully grown soldiers with flying Karate kicks. Mion wasn't a master martial artist who could Judo flip someone like Okonogi faster than the eye can see. They were just kids, and when violence took place it fucking hurt. I mean compare all the scenes with the Yamainu goons being knocked out like stereotypical henchman with the parts where Rina or Teppei got bludgeoned.

Ryukishi pretty much wrote himself into a corner with the government conspiracy. He had to turn the Club into a bunch of larger-than-life superheroes for them to beat Takano's forces. And in doing so all sense of powerlessness went right out the window.

>> No.21106527

>>21106488
I agree. Also I just don't see why the whole government conspiracy thing was necessary. Higurashi has a perfectly good premise with the club members falling into paranoia for no good reason. Ryukishi could've just resolved that and ended on the same central message of "always trust your friends" without needing to bring large scale conspiracies into the picture.
To me a big part of the appeal of the early parts of Higurashi was the small scale, just an ordinary bunch of kids in a more or less ordinary small mountain village thinking themselves into a paranoia that they can't get themselves out of again.

It's because it's much easier to relate to. I think everyone can relate to being paranoid, especially around that age. Plus it's just really successful at making the reader feel that same paranoia. While reading it I felt just as suspicious and confused about what was really going on as K1.

>> No.21106572

>>21106488
They aren't super soldiers, they are an intelligence unit. And they didn't expect the kids to fight back. I know what you mean, but I don't really dislike it. It's a really triumphant ending for the story.

It's not like they did anything impossible for a human. They just had balls, put in some effort and got really fucking lucky. That's what gives the story tension at this point. Hanyuu has basically used up all of her remaining power to turn into a physical being and become the piece that was previously missing.

Rika knows they are risking their last chance at a happy future, so from her perspective this is all tense as fuck. Of course they are all going to survive somehow, the reader knows this. They are struggling against insurmountable odds and somehow winning by pure luck. It's fucking magical. But even that luck wouldn't be worth shit if the were weak-willed and didn't give it their all to save their friends.

Of course it is, that's what Ryuukishi intended. It's not just your typical paranoia, it's literally a bunch of microscopic bugs physically messing with his brain chemicals because they got upset over the climate or whatever, which plungs him into a nighmarish, unbearable, terrifying persecution complex that gets worse by the minute.

Of course something like that would be more terrifying than some obscure shady people plotting a conspiracy. Onikakushi is meant to be the scariest part of the story, because you still know nothing about the true nature of this creepy village.

>> No.21106619

>>21106596
It's not just that though. Matsuribayashi-hen is a story that's almost devoid of tension. About the only time it actually feels like the cast could be in some deep shit is when Shion and Kasai have to hold off the Yamainu, before getting taken hostage. From then on there wasn't a single scene where it felt like the club's victory wasn't inevitable.

>> No.21106673

>>21106619
It's obvious that they are going to win after all the set-up. It wouldn't feel right if it ended with a downer ending, so I don't think Ryuukishi really wanted to make you doubt whether they would win or not.

The point is that the characters, especially Rika, are not sure if they are going to win or not. They are pulling a crazy stunt after another and somehow still resisting.

>> No.21106712

Honestly, I was more worried about Takano's fate throughout the entire thing. The introduction to the episode makes it very easy to empathize with her, but her actions are still abominable.

It's obvious that every main character will get a good ending, but the villain is the one person you are supposed to be worried about. You never know if she will do something crazy and kill herself or have her freedom and life destroyed to pay for her crimes. So it really keeps you at the edge of your seat, not sure of what will become of her.

I still have mixed feelings about Takano and she's my favorite character in the story. I can't decide if she deserves to be forgiven or not, because the shit she did to Rika's parents was just unforgivable. But I also find her incredibly pitiable.

Ange doesn't need a bunch of outfits.

Her school uniform is ugly as all fuck, but it represents her humiliation and bullying at the hands of girls her age. Girls who have lived the same number of years as Ange, and yet are much more successful with boys and have actual social lives. Ange's school uniform is hot because she wears it when she's only 16, because it represents Eva's control over her pathetic teenage life and because it contains all the memories of her degradation, social rejection and bullying. It represents her wounded ego and her status as a human being with no dignity, powerless to stop the bullying and uphold her pride.

Ange's main outfit is really damn cool. It represents Ange's young adult life. She just turned 18 and is now old enough to do porn or become a prostitute if she wants. She has the option to choose those fates, to sell her dignity for money. Her main outfit also represents her badass yet immature I-don't-give-a-shit attitude. She won't take shit from anyone and will throw cash around to get over any obstacles. But this edgy, angsty, immature attitude that only a teenager would perceive as cool is really pathetic, because it's a direct result of all the years she spent as the lowly bullied kid, wishing she could be a cool girl and treat people like crap too. That's what makes this outfit super lewd. It represents her angsty baggage and immature retaliation against the world. You can tell she's is still fantasizing about getting her revenge, years after the bullies have already forgotten about her and moved on with their successful lives. Also, her main outfit has a short skirt and a Haruhi armband.

Ange's third and final outfit is... her birthday suit. Her butt-naked human body, which grows hair in embarrassing places and produces lewd sweat. Her disgusting human body, which is literally a machine that turns food into shit that must eventually be excreted in the most shameful act a human can partake in. Her beautiful human body, just plump enough to be extremely lewd, which gives her pleasure during her lowest moments.

All three of her outfits are super hot. Jessica can't even compete.

That reminds me of this old article:

http://www.flyffworld.com/forums/showthread.php?t=60085

>A SEVEN-year-old girl was made to strip naked by her teacher in a New Delhi school for not completing her homework.

>She was made to strip completely naked and stand on a desk in her class on Friday while other students were asked to boo her.

>"The teacher was arrested on a complaint by the parents but she has been released as it was a bailable offence," Rajan Bhagat said.

>"This is barbaric," Shanta Sinha, head of the National Commission for Protection of Child Rights, said in a newspaper report. "No one has the right to outrage the modesty of a child."

>The commission had issued a directive this year barring schools from calling students "stupid" or "mindless".

>A government study backed by the United Nations Children's Fund said earlier this year two-thirds of children in India are physically abused, mostly at home and in schools.

>"That's absolutely disgusting, how could anybody possibly humiliate and degrade a child in such a way? What makes them think they have the right to do such a thing? Barbaric isn't a strong enough word."

>Really, in what universe is stripping a child naked and having them taunted by classmates going to make them want to try harder? "Hm, I'm sure Johnny would do better in school if he just had a few more traumatic experiences to build his character. Oh, well, time to finish my lesson plan! Period One: Taunting naked classmates, Period Two, attaching mouse-traps to students' genitals."

>I'll bet a million that this girl quits school as soon as the cameras turn away from her.

>And on a side note, what's sick is that there are probably people doing the same thing to children in the world, and don't even have the excuse of punishing them.

>I'm sure that someone, somewhere, is whishing that the teacher had a video of this.

>I'm sure that someone, somewhere, is whishing that the teacher had a video of this.

>I'm sure that someone, somewhere, is whishing that the teacher had a video of this.

Remember when "YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO OUTRAGE THE MODESTY OF A LOLI" became a meme on /jp/ back in 2015 or so? Good times.

"The Seven Ages of Girlhood" - von Joseph Ashby-Sterry (1876)

I.
At Two, she is a tiny lass,
And joy she scarcely knows from sorrow;
She scarce consults her looking-glass;
She has no thought of sad tomorrow!

II.
At Four she is a merry maid,
And looks on aught but play as folly;
She can't believe bright flowers fade--
That only sawdust is her dolly.

III.
At Eight, her troubles come in scores,
For oft she is perverse and haughty;
A pouting puss in pinafores--
Who's sometimes whipped when she is naughty!

IV.
At Twelve, she is a saucy teaze,
Who knows full well her glances rankle;
Her petticoats scarce veil her knees,
And fairy frills scarce kiss her ankle.

V .
At Fifteen, she's the pearl of pets,
And feels assured her pow'r is strengthened;
Her snowy school-girl trouserettes
Are hidden when her skirt is lengthened.

VI.
At Sixteen, she's the sweetest sweet,
And dresses in the height of fashion;
She feels her heart 'neath bodice beat,
In earnest for the tender passion.

VII.
At Eighteen, p'r'aps she may be sold
Her lot to share, for worse or better;
She'll either sell her heart for gold--
Or give it for a golden fetter!

It's more the sadness of watching a loved one deteriorate and die with the feeling of having wasted his life on a research that got ridiculed and rejected. It must have killed his spirit. It's hard to watch someone have their passion and dreams destroyed, especially if it's your grandfather. Grandparents tend to give you nothing but love, so the idea of something bad happening to them is infuriating.

I can understand that sense of guilt and pity towards a old, fragile relative, so I get where Takano is coming from.

Beato doesn't follow Van Dine and Yasu isn't really a servant. Also, real life murders don't have to be restricted by mystery rules.

Beato's stories follow Knox to make the mystery fair. Van Dine's rules are more about avoiding cliches and stupid plot twists, they are meant to help you produce a good story, rather than a fair mystery. Which doesn't matter in Beato's case because she'll cover up the actual human story with magic shenanigans anyway.

I wonder how high school Ange would react to being stripped naked by her bullies and forced to walk around the school like that, her hairy pussy and pathetic ass crack exposed as everyone mocks her. Her decently sized breasts bouncing in a lewd way as someone plays with them. Her naked body being kicked and punched by girls her age as she falls to the floor and starts crying.

I mean, if a witch tortured her to the point of making her faint or scream in agony, that'd be understandable. If a witch killed her entire family in front of her, she'd start crying and screaming in sorrow. But how the fuck would she react when she finds herself butt naked in front of her entire class? It's so unpredictable! It's such an awkward situation, she would probably behave erratically.

On one hand, she'd want to scream, cover herself or try to get away from the bullies. But on the other hand, her life is already ruined and there is no point in fighting back anymore. She may as well enjoy her own humiliation in a twisted way and do everything they tell her to do, being reduced to furniture. Giving up on her humanity and pride is the only way to get over the fact that she's butt naked in front of everyone. Otherwise, she'd have to bear the pain of being so thoroughly humiliated while she still values her dignity.

The unpredictability of a broken Ushiromiya Angste! Lewd! I bet her reaction would be super fun to watch, as her confused mind alternates between trying to preserve her dignity and giving up on it. She may even collapse because the situation is so overwhelming.

Can you imagine reading that whole scene from Ange's perspective? Becoming invested in a character's story and wanting her to succeed only to see her experience a degrading humiliation that crushes all her hopes is the best! It gives the story a bad ending that makes you feel awful, but at the same time you kinda enjoy the trainwreck because it's such an intense scene where you get to see a human being reduced to a worthless piece of meat. Lewd!

Imagine Maria and Mammon seeing all of that. Ange will never be able to have a conversation with them ever again, because she'll be really embarrassed. They witnessed her degradation, they heard her pathetic begging and screaming as one of the bullies forced pencils into her ass while another filmed everything with a 90s video camera.

Umineko is such a lewd series. Ryukishi belongs in a mental institution. What do you think, everyone?

Actually, lolis have the nastiest asses in the world. They may smell really good and all, but they don't care too much about hygiene and they still poop like everyone else. Being lolis doesn't make their butts smell any better.

Loli Ange could go a week without taking a bath and barely smell at all, while future Ange would smell of humanity if she just ran for a while and didn't shower. On the other hand, future Ange is aware of her human condition and takes good care of her body. She wouldn't dare walk around with a dirty butt, unlike the oblivious, innocent and spacey loli Ange. She has no sense of discipline.

The last thing she left behind on this Earth, the only remnant of her existence, the only thing she achieved in her worthless life, the only thing she will be remembered for... is that humiliating video where she begs and moans, half-crazed.

>completely glossing over Battler meeting Sayo in favor of yet another BeaBato wank illusion
That alone made the VN fail as a proper conclusion. Battler vs Erika being a bunch of abstract irrelevant mystery questions made up on the spot was also incredibly uninteresting compared to the answers for EP5 and EP6 getting revealed by Erika, and that's not even getting into how great Confession of the Golden Witch was. VN EP8 was basically Ryukishi spitting in the face of all his readers and calling them goats before walking off the stage.
