I heard that Kyrie being Battler's mother was confirmed in episode 6. How so, exactly?

Not really for Battler.

>>4043000
Well, if you think of her as being a pawn for her family to get into the Ushiromiya fortune by having one of her children become the head of the family, Battler probably pissed her off pretty damn good when he decided he wasn't going to be a part of the Ushiromiya family anymore for about 6 years.

Erika has no authority as the detective this game. That means she can be the culprit and kill people. So she ends up chopping off Kyrie's head, along with the other 1st twilight victims excluding Battler, in order to force a logical error in Battler's gameboard. If there is a logical error on the board then the game is deemed unsolvable and doesn't count anymore. A bunch of shit happens and Erika tries to get married to a comatose Battler to become the territory lord again.

It's not Battler's fault at all...well actually it sorta is.

Erika trolled Battler with a deredere personality and he let her use three tape pieces. She taped up the two guest rooms that everyone was locked up inside and then taped the room Piece-Battler 'died' in. She then killed the remaining 5 'victims' and found a letter. The letter was apparently put there by Piece-Battler, but because he should be trapped in the room while this happens that makes it impossible for him to place the letter. Erika literally forces a logical error - Battler never intended for there to be one

Why has this point remained unchallenged so far?

Her child probably is Battler. It's not confirmed, but honestly there is no other way unless you think Rudolf was banging a third woman. Anti-climatic, but I think after it was confirmed Asumu wasn't his birth mother its fairly obvious to say Kyrie should be.

No, it's true. Even if 1000 years pass, there's no guarantee that she would be exactly the same as the Beatrice Battler originally knew.

So here's what the gist of it seems to be.

Erika tries her best to prove Battler, Lambdadelta and Bern wrong all at the same time. They all get really really pissed at her for obvious reasons. Beato somehow saves Battler from logically denying himself or something, despite not being real Beato (wut) and then everyone erases Erika for being such a heartless troll.

During all this there's lots of cool fights, and the game board doesn't get past the first twilight due to Erika's antics. Bern is like "jesus christ do I have to do everything myself" and she starts a new game board, hoping that now that Erika is out of the picture we can actually finish a game.

Moe-Beatrice at the end is basically is Beatrice, but with occasional flashes of moe that settle down. It's not just a matter of regaining memories, because Moe-Beato spends a large part of the game reading old Kakera in order to understand her old self, but she's still distinct until both Lambda and Kanon shove her into remembering what she was good at and what it really means to be the Golden Witch.

I have a personal theory: Kyrie isn't the culprit or the overall mastermind. She's a decoy culprit rather. She creates all the closed rooms and sometimes steers people off the track. But in reality she's being forced - the culprit poisoned Ange and Kyrie has to work for them to make sure she's cured. On the island when Kyrie organizes the closed rooms the culprit finds no use for her and kills her off (EP 1-2). EP 3 she's with an entire group of people, so attacking her is impossible. EP 4 is a crazy ass mess, so I can't really explain that one. EP 5 we don't know about though.

She's not technically writing EP 3-6 right out of her head, as much as she is looking at the fragments to do so. I doubt she would have learned about Kyrie's 18 year jealously or the way Shannon feels okay with dying since she's a wife now just by reading facts about them and taking contents from the lettered bottles.

He hasn't completely accepted her, but he did say that he would be with her forever.

It just doesn't feel right to me. Its almost hypocritical now about how pissed he was at Rudolf for going to Kyrie after Asumu died, since he almost did the same exact thing in EP 6.

Not to mention the way she talks about Asumu being a bitch and a whore, it just makes no sense to me that Kyrie doesn't love Rudolf.

Here's what the meta world is in Umineko

Fact: Person A ate a sandwich blindfolded

The metaworld can spin as many versions as possible as to why person A ate a sandwhich blindfolded. It can arrange the most dramatic and heart touching scenario as why person A might do such a thing. It may even insert imaginary character guiding person A to ultimately eat a sandwich blindfolded.

But in the end it's just that. meta..

It's at least 2 writters

Episode 1 and 2 were written by Maria who presumably knows the entire truth
Episode 3 to 6 are written by Touya who has read Maria's letters. She doesn't have the entire truth, and is writting these scenarios in hope of reaching it. (just like a conspiracy theorist)

Tooya actually claimed to Ange that she does know the truth, if I recalled correctly, and is writing about the stories she sees in the kakeras.

>>4043877
But the idea is she's just writing shit, right?

As in she doesn't have the slightest fucking clue as to what is going on.

well she says she knows the truth, but yeah she's basically making up magical shit to sell big bucks.

This is correct. IIRC she even says that as long as you know the truth you can make up your own story yourself because you know the basic rules.

>> No.4043927

which is essentially correct. This is why Bern was able to throw Erika into EP 5. Erika didn't conflict with the rules of the game or the board, due to the red text, so it was okay to bring her in.

>>4043927

how does that explain batshit explain murderous Erika in episode 6?

Is this the logic error people have been referring to?

>> No.4043934

So basically the story goes like this:

Family went to Island -> Died on island
Writer hears about the island murders -> Writes shit about it

We see the shit written in the episodes. Which entail a fiction within a fiction. None of the characters we see on that date exist except for in a very abstract sense (There was an Ushiromiya Battler, but his personality wasn't the same as displayed, same with everyone else on the island)

Ange searching for answers and her reading Maria's diary never happened. All of it is fiction by an Author to make money.

game board in episode 6 is unwinnable because Erika committed murders

Episode 6 is unwinnable because Erika did things that wasn't supposed to happen

>> No.4043962

>>4043932
Logical error:

Piece Battler put the letter by the guest house which Erika found. His death nor the other deaths weren't confirmed, so it was possible. However Erika had taped his room up and it was a closed room, so it should have been impossible for him to leave. Battler says that Kyrie switched places with him however and trapped herself in his place, so he was able to put the letter.

Erika however said this was impossible. Why? Because she killed Kyrie by chopping off her head. She did the same to all the other victims but Battler. Since she has no detective authority she couldn't confirm them dead by sight, so she decided to kill them to make sure they were dead.

This creates a logical error. There was no way Battler could have gotten out of the room to put the letter down, even though it was said that he did. That means the gameboard isn't solvable.

However Moetrice comes to the rescue with the red that Kanon had switched places with Battler. Erika and her fight, but in the end Erika can't figure out a solution to how Kanon got out of the room without resorting to magic (since Erika taped up his room) and is eliminated from the board
