Right cunts.
http://www.watchanimeon.com/umineko-no-naku-koro-ni-episode-15/
has an atypical translation of the opening theme, focusing on the line "Hope is a sin?"

Obviously this ties into the furniture's status... but also gives us an insight into the authorship of the meta-text: its fundamentally japanese Buddhist, probably from the pureland school. Your attempts to westernise through christianity or post-capitalist atheist moralities of self-articulation are pathetic and loserish. Just as the riddle relies on word-puns that cannot be rendered into English without a high grade translator, similarly the metaphysics of the entire situation are fundamentally beyond your capacity to realise because you weren't raised (generally, obviously the Thaifags and KOREANs etc...) in a sufficiently buddhist context.

This is all.

You can enjoy your sage, but reflect now on all interpretations you've made of the novels. You lack the capacity to close the gap# of the hermeneutic circle because you lack sufficient japanese and moreover JAPANESE SPIRIT. This is much as you can't solve the riddle without JAPANESE SPIRIT (and divergent linguistic readings based on Kinzo's bizarre fascination for Western names).

No, but I'm not here to discuss shitty anime adaptions or translation nuances either. That's what /a/ is for.

The point, if you'd bother, is that both texts share a central feature: they're uninterpretable to filthy foreigners at a fundamental level; and, not just because /jp/ lacks the language, but because /jp/ will never be appropriately cultured.

But the "Hope is a sin?"
line is in Italian.
"Sperare è peccato?"
